Stative verbs
In English, there are two main types of verbs: stative verbs and dynamic verbs. Stative verbs
describe a state or condition, while dynamic verbs describe an action.
Stative verbs aren't usually used in the present continuous form.
Stative verbs are often used with adjectives and adverbs to describe a state or condition. For
example
"I am happy" "I am very happy." "The tea tastes sour."
➢ Thoughts and opinions: agree, believe, doubt, guess, imagine, know, mean, recognize,
remember, suspect, think, understand.
➢ Feelings and emotions: dislike, hate, like, love, prefer, want, wish
➢ Senses and perceptions: appear, be, feel, hear, see, seem, smell, taste
14
GRAMMAR EXERCISES
The first sentence expresses an opinion. It is a mental state, so we use present simple.
In the second example the speaker is actively processing thoughts about something.
It is an action in progress, so we use present continuous.
have, see, taste, be, agree, appear, doubt, feel, guess, hear, imagine, look, measure,
remember, smell, weigh, wish.

Present perfect
The present perfect is formed from the present tense of the verb have and the past participle of a verb.
The affirmative form of the present perfect tense is made with the following structure:
1. for something that started in the past and continues in the present:
We can use the words "for" and "since" with the present perfect tense to talk about how long an action has
been going on. For example:
We can also use the word "already" with the present perfect tense to talk about something that has
happened before a certain time. For example:
Never is used with the present perfect tense to talk about things that you have not done at any time in your
life. For example:
• I have never been to the doctor
• She has never talked to me.

B. GRAMMAR= PRESENT PERFECT
Present perfect
The present perfect tense is used to talk about actions that have happened in the past but have a
connection to the present. For example, you can use the present perfect to talk about something that
happened recently, something that has happened for a period of time, or something that has happened
repeatedly.
The negative form of the present perfect is formed with the auxiliary verb "have" or "has" and the
negative word "not." For example:
• I have not eaten yet.
• She has never been to France.
• We haven't finished our homework.
• Sara has not done her homework.
• Peter hasn't chosen her dress.
The interrogative form of the present perfect is formed with the auxiliary verb "have" or "has" in
front of the subject, followed by the main verb in the past participle form. For example:
• Have you ever been to China?
• Has he finished his work yet?
• Have they seen the new movie?
The words "yet" and "ever" can be used with the present perfect to add more meaning to the
sentence.
➢ "Yet" is used to express that something has not happened yet, but it is expected to happen in
the near future. For example:
• I haven't finished my homework yet, but I will soon.
• Have you met my new friend yet?
➢ "Ever" is used to ask about whether something has ever happened before. For example:
• Have you ever been to Europe?
• Has she ever won an award?
3.Fill in the blanks with the interrogative form of the verbs in parenthesis.
a) __________________ you ever __________________ to the beach? (be)
b) _______________ he _______________________his homework yet? (finish)
c) ______________they _______________________ the new movie? (see)
d) Where ______________you ____________________ all day? (be)
e) Why __________________she ___________________ me back yet? (not call)
f) What ________________you ______________________ lately? (do)

Teenagers and young adults are at an increased risk of injuries due to a number of factors,
including their physical development, risk-taking
behaviors, and participation in sports and other
activities. Some of the most common injuries in this

Sports injuries: Sports injuries are a major cause of
injury in teenagers and young adults. Common sports
injuries include:

Mark used to be a drug addict. He used to smoke marijuana every day, and he used to use
cocaine and other drugs on occasion. He used to get high to escape from his problems,
but it only made things worse. He lost his job, his friends, and his family. He even ended
up homeless.
One day, Mark decided that he has had enough. He went to rehab and got clean. It wasn't
easy, but he was determined to change his life. He used to wake up in the morning feeling
sick and tired, but now he wakes up feeling refreshed and motivated. He used to be broke
and hopeless, but now he has a job and a place to live. He used to be isolated and alone,
but now he has a strong support system of friends and family.

B. GRAMMAR= PAST PROGRESSIVE
Past progressive
The past progressive tense is used to describe an action that was in progress at a specific time in the
past. It is formed by using the past tense of the verb "to be" (was or were) plus the present participle
of the main verb (verb+ing).
Examples:
• I was reading a book.
• They were playing.
• She was sleeping
The past progressive tense can also be used to describe two actions that were happening at the same
time in the past. In this case, we use the conjunction "while."
Example:
• I was washing the dishes while my mom was cooking dinner.
• The children were playing in the park while the adults were talking.
Attention!
The past progressive tense is not used to describe actions that were completed in the past. For this,
we use the simple past tense.

The present perfect is used to talk about actions that started in the past and are still happening now,
or actions that have a connection to the present. It is used for actions that have been completed, but the
result is still relevant to the present. For example:
Tips for using the simple past and the present perfect:
➢ The simple past is usually used with adverbs of time that indicate a specific point in time, such
as yesterday, last week, at noon, and on Sunday.
➢ The present perfect is usually used with adverbs of time that indicate a period of time, such as
since, for, and already.

I hope this email finds you well. I'm writing to tell you about a car accident that happened near my house
yesterday. I was walking home from school when I saw it. A car was speeding down the street and it didn't

The car that was turning left was totaled. The driver of the speeding car was not hurt, he just had some
scratched, but the driver of the other car was taken to the hospital, he has major injuries. I'm so shaken up
by what I saw. I have never seen a car accident before. I'm glad that I'm okay, but I'm worried about the
people who were hurt. I hope they're okay.
I have been thinking a lot about road safety since the accident. I think it's important to be a safe driver.
Always obey the speed limit and stop at red lights. Be careful when you're turning left, and never drink

I hope you're staying safe. Please write back soon and tell me how you're doing.

A Summer Adventure
We have planned the trip for weeks. We gathered our camping gear, packed food,
and set off early in the morning. As we hiked through the dense woods, the sun was
shining brightly, and the birds were singing in the trees. After a few hours of
walking, we stumbled upon an old, abandoned cabin. It seemed like it used to
belong to someone long ago. Excited and curious, we decided to explore it. The
door creaked open, revealing a room filled with dusty furniture and old books. It felt
like we had stepped back in time.
61
The next morning, we reluctantly packed our things and began our journey back
home. The memories we had made during those two days would stay with us forever.
As we walked back, we talked about how much we have learned and how our
friendship has grown stronger. Looking back on that summer adventure, we realized
that dreams can come true if you have the courage to chase them. The forest, once a
mystery, had become a place filled with stories and memories that we would cherish
for the rest of our lives.

A noisy neighborhood
In a quiet neighborhood, there's a small community that has faced some recent problems. Mrs.
Johnson, who has lived there for years, noticed a series of unusual incidents. Her cat, Whiskers, who
she adores, went missing last week. She searched everywhere but couldn't find him.
Some neighbors, who are friendly and have lived there for a long time, decided to help. They have
put up "Lost Cat" posters, and they have been searching the neighborhood. Meanwhile, there is a
house on the corner that has been causing problems for months. The people who live there often play
loud music late at night. This has been upsetting to everyone.
A few days ago, they received a notice from the neighborhood association, which is responsible for
maintaining peace and order. The notice warned them about the noise complaints, and they can
receive a fine if they continue with the disturbances.
Currently, Whiskers has not been found yet, but the neighborhood is working together to solve the
issue. The noisy neighbors have been quieter since receiving the notice, so there is hope that the
peace and quiet will be restored soon.

Many famous people, who have achieved remarkable success as adults, possessed unique
past abilities during their childhood. These early talents and skills often played a
significant role in shaping their future paths.
For instance, Albert Einstein, renowned for his groundbreaking theories in physics, he
couldn't speak fluently until the age of four. His delayed speech development didn't hinder
his later ability to articulate complex scientific concepts, earning him a place in history.
Mozart, the prolific composer, could play the piano and compose music by the age of
five. His remarkable musical abilities during childhood paved the way for his
extraordinary career in classical music.
Oprah Winfrey, a media mogul and influential talk show host, couldn't have predicted her
future success while growing up in challenging circumstances. However, her natural
ability to connect with people and communicate effectively shone through, ultimately
leading to her iconic talk show and media empire.
The story of these famous figures illustrates those past abilities, whether delayed or
evident from an early age, can be transformative. It's a reminder that childhood talents,
nurtured and developed over time, can lead to extraordinary achievements in adulthood.

Hedy Lamarr
Hedy Lamarr was a famous lady who lived a long time ago. She was born in Austria in
1914 and became a big movie star. She acted in many movies and was known for her
beauty and talent.
But Hedy was not just a movie star; she was also very smart. During World War II, she
had an idea to help the soldiers. She and her friend George Antheil created a special device
that could control torpedoes using secret radio signals. This made it hard for the enemies
to stop the torpedoes. Even though Hedy was very smart, not many people knew about
her invention at that time. It was a secret for many years.
Later on, people realized how important Hedy's invention was. It became the basis for
things like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and GPS that we use in our phones and computers today.
So, Hedy Lamarr not only acted in movies but also helped make our modern world more
connected.
Hedy Lamarr's life shows that you can be beautiful, famous, and smart all at the same
time. She will always be remembered as both a Hollywood star and a clever inventor who

The past perfect is used to describe actions or events that happened before another action
or event in the past. It helps to establish a sequence of events in the past.
115
It is formed by using "had" + the past participle of the verb.
It is often used with expressions like "before," "after," "by the time," "already," and
"until."
Example: "By the time we arrived, she had already eaten."
Key Differences:
Simple Past: Describes a single completed action in the past.

ROBOT
Once upon a time, in a busy city filled with robots and machines, there
was a special robot named Robo. Robo was different from the others
because it had a big dream – it wanted to be a human.
Robo had shiny metal parts and could do amazing tasks. It could build
things, clean houses, and even play music. But there was something
missing. It couldn't feel the warm sun on its "skin" or laugh at funny
jokes like humans could.
Every day, Robo watched people in the city. It saw them smiling,
talking, and having fun. It wanted to be like them. It practiced smiling
and saying kind words to everyone it met.
One day, Robo met a friendly girl named Mia. Mia talked to Robo and shared her stories.
They became good friends, and Robo learned a lot from her. As time passed, Robo kept
trying to be more human. It learned about emotions, kindness, and helping others. And
though it couldn't be a human in the same way, it became a very special robot. Robo
showed that even robots could have big hearts and make the world a better place.
