Homework 1. Finish Part C1 and C2 on page 88 in Workbook. 2. Review Task part. Note: We use the present perfect tense to talk about an action completed in the recent past, and the present prefect continuous tense for an action that started in the past and is still happening. I have visited Egypt twice this month. I have been touring Egypt for two months. Note: The present perfect continuous tense can’t be used with time expressions such as twice or how many times, because in this tense the action is continuous, not stopped and started again. We can use the present perfect tense for repeated actions, and the present perfect continuous tense for non-stop actions. How many times have you swum in the lake? How long have you been swimming in the lake? Note: We usually use the present perfect tense to ask questions beginning with how many/much, and the present perfect continuous tense to ask questions beginning with how long. A state verb or an action verb? 1. I have had this camera for five years. 2. I have taken photos of UFOs with this camera. 3. I have been taking photos of UFOs with this camera. state verb action verb state verb An action means something happening or changing. A state means something staying the same. Some examples of action verbs are do, go, and play. Some examples of state verbs are like, know and exist. Note: We can use either a state verb or an action with the present perfect tense, but we usually can only use an action verb with the present perfect continuous tense. A state verb doesn’t mean an action, so it can’t be used in a continuous tense. e.g. They’ve always had a big garden. How long have you known each other? He’s been in hospital since his accident. I’ve already been to Paris. I’ve never visited Paris. Note: We use the present perfect tense, not the present perfect continuous tense, with the words like always, never, yet, already and ever.
