Present Perfect (have done) 145

Past Simple (did) 145

I’ve done a lot of work today. 145

We use the Present Perfect for a period of time that continues from the past until now. For example, today, this week, since 1985. 145

It hasn’t rained this week. 145

Have you seen Ann this morning? (it is still morning) 145

Ian lives in London. He has lived there for seven years. 145

I have never played golf. (in my life) 145

The Present Perfect always has a connection with now. 145

I did a lot of work yesterday. 145

We use the Past Simple for a finished time in the past. For example, yesterday, last week, from 1985 to 1991. 145

It didn’t rain last week. 145

Did you see Ann this morning? (it is now afternoon or evening) 145

Did you see Ann on Sunday? 145

Ian lived in Scotland for ten years. Now he lives in London. 145

I didn’t play golf when I was on holiday last summer. 145

The Past Simple tells us only about the past. 145
