9. Make a report or presentation about the famous chemist you know. Tell it to your group and vote for the most interesting report/ presentation. Past Indefinite (Simple) Tense
Past Simple используется для обозначения действия, которое произошло в определенное время в прошлом и время совершения которого уже истекло; регулярно повторяющееся действие в прошлом (часто со словами every day каждый день, often часто, at first сначала и т. д.)
Eg.: He wrote letters to his parents every day.
Он писал письма родителям каждый день.
Форма глагола в Past Simple (Indefinite) действительного залога образуется прибавлением к основе правильного глагола суффикса -ed (to start начинать — started начал), а для неправильных глаголов — совпадает со второй формой (to begin начинать — began начал).
