How do the tenses and aspects in English correspond temporally to one another?

Elodia [21]3 years ago

Technically there are only two tenses in the English language. The Past tense and the Present tense. The future isn't a tense because it has yet to happen, thus it is time that may never happen and is bound to change. Aspects however can apply to tenses such as the progressive aspect (more commonly known as the continuous) or the perfect aspect. Thus in combination of both tense and aspect, we get an understanding of the temporal occurrences of activities.

4vir4ik [10]
<span>C. Is the correct answer here - bought is based on the root verb 'buy or to buy' but its sense in the sentence is set against the framework of a time from the phrase with the word 'During' and so the word of choice must become 'bought'.</span>

Dynamic characters in the old man and the sea
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

I believe that Santiago is dynamic character in "The old man and the sea"

Explanation:

Santiago is an old fisherman in Cuba who, at the beginning of the book, has not caught anything for eighty-four days.  Santiago's quest for the great catch that will save his career. Santiago endures a great struggle with a uncommonly large and noble marlin only to lose the fish to rapacious sharks on his way back to land.  Santiago ends with his spirit undefeated.

Remember a dynamic character also undergoes changes throughout the narrative, due to conflicts he encounters on his journey. A dynamic character faces trials and tribulations, and takes time to learn from his encounters, his experiences, and his mistakes, as well as from other characters.

So if by any chance you think I am wrong let me know and also think back to the story and try to figure out what characters in the book face "trials" and how that person learns from his/her mistake :) you will do great I believe in you!!

The things that are bold are hints of what your answer should be :) <3

zubka84 [21]
The correct answer should be D. <span>Tears now traveled down the lines in her face, but when she spoke, her voice was clear. 

That is because what she is like as a person is not said clearly, but can be found out by analyzing her actions. </span>
