Exercise 1  Verb patterns

Complete the letter to the editor with the correct form of the verbs in brackets. 

I am writing response to an article in your newspaper

about the problem with today’s young people.

I wanted to put (put) an alternative point of view.

Firstly, it’s important (1)

(understand)

that not all teenagers behave badly. I will always

remember (2)

 

(be) helped by two

young women when I lost my keys and I was trying

(3)(get) back into my house. They

stopped (4) (help) me when older

people just walked past. They waited with me until I

managed (5) (contact) my son and get

a set of spare keys. Another example is when we were

planning (6) (donate) money to the local

hospital. A large group of schoolchildren did different

activities and succeeded in (7)

 

(raise)

thousands of pounds.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Of course, some young people are anti-social and we

need (8)

(do) something about them.

In my opinion, instead of always (9)

 

 

 

(criticize) them, we should give them activities that

they enjoy (10)

(do). This will keep them

off the streets and make them (11)

 

 

(feel)

part of the community.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Finally, I would like (12)

 

 

 

(point out)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

that teenagers have always been different from their

parents. I remember (13) (love) clothes

and music that my parents hated. It was all part of

(14)(grow up).

Yours,

Marcia Burns

Exercise 2  Present perfect

Complete the interview with the correct form of the verbs in brackets. Use the Present Perfect (simple, continuous or passive) or the Past Simple.

I = Interviewer  R = Richard

IHi Richard, and welcome to ‘Collectors’ World’. Now you collect autographs, is that right?

R

Yes, I ’ve collected (collect) about 3,000 up to now.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I

That’s a lot. So, how long (1)

 

 

 

you

 

 

 

(collect) famous people’s autographs?

R

For about ten years. I (2)

 

 

 

 

 

(start) it when

 

I was about 14. My mother gave me her autograph

 

book and I (3)

 

 

 

(be) interested in the

 

hobby ever since.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I

And who (4)

 

 

(sign) your first autograph?

R

Well, my first book (5)

 

 

 

 

 

(contain) all the

 

players from my local football team, but since then I

(6)(concentrate) mainly on music and

 

movie stars. In fact, my friends (7)

 

 

(become)

 

interested recently, too. They ask for autographs for

 

me – one of them (8)

 

 

 

 

 

(get) Madonna’s last

 

month!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I

That must be worth quite a lot of money. I heard

 

that some autographs (9)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

just

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(auction) on the Internet for thousands

 

of dollars. (10)

 

 

you ever

 

 

 

 

(ask)

 

to sell your collection?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

R

No, but for me it (11)

 

 

 

 

never

 

 

 

 

 

(be)

 

about money. I just enjoy the process. My collection

 

(12)

 

 

 

(grow) steadily over the years and I

 

can’t imagine selling it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I

But is there anything negative about the process?

R

It can be frustrating. If you (13)

 

(stand)

 

in the cold and the rain for hours and then a star

 

refuses to sign, it’s very disappointing. That

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(14)

 

 

 

(happen) to me last week.

 

 

 

 

 

 

I

Oh, which star was that?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

R

I’d prefer not to say!
