Present Perfect    VS    Past Simple

Past simple + Present perfect

Lesson goal: At the end of this lesson you know when to use  the past simple or present perfect in a sentence.  

Difference present perfect and past simple

• The past simple is used when the action ended in the past and there is no connection to the present.
  
• The present perfect is used when there is a link to the past and the action is still going on in the present

When do you use the simple past?

Activities/events which happened is the past and have ended in the past. Often a time reference is mentioned.

Examples:

I broke my leg in 2014 (6 years ago, and you are better now)

I met my boyfriend last winter (last winter, the day you saw him for the first time has ended)

When do you use a Present Perfect?

* events which started in the past but the effect is still noticeable in the present

* experiences in the past (date is not important

Examples:

I can't run, I have broken my leg. (your leg is still broken today)

I have known my boyfriend for 5 years. (you still know him)

I have been to London six times. (Date is not important, you might go again)

Keywords:

Present perfect: for, yet, never, ever, just, already, since,

Past simple: last year, yesterday, in 2010, an hour ago etc.

Fill in past simple or present perfect.
