Past simple Vs present perfect II
2014/12/09
Last week we learnt about the difference between the past simple and the present perfect, and how to use these two tenses in emails. Now, we are going to focus on the time chunks and vocabulary you can use with these tenses.
 
Let’s now look at some of the time words and chunks you can use with the past simple.
 
Task 1: Sort these time chunks into the table below.

 
 afterwards
 
 ago
 
 at one time
 
 during that time
 
 during this time
 
 
 eventually
 
 formerly
 
 immediately
 
 in 2005
 
 in March
 
 last quarter
 
 
 last year
 
 next
 
 once
 
 originally
 
 so far
 
 subsequently
 
 
 then
 
 this quarter
 
 this week
 
 this year
 
 year-to-date
 
 yesterday
 

Past (finished) time chunks
Present (unfinished) time chunks
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Here are some examples to help you:
 
Past simple time vocabulary:
At one time I worked for Deloitte and Touche.
I met Tim Cook once.
When I discovered the problem, I immediately called my boss.
 
Present time vocabulary:
During this time there has been a 2% increase in sales.
I have attended a conference all this week.
Sales have not incerased much this year.
