What does the Tenses talk about in English Language

English

Valentin [98]3 years ago

Answer:

All the tenses in English talk about time.

Explanation:

In the simple present, you talk about daily routines, facts or habits.                 e.g. Laura plays basketball once a week.

In the present continuous, you talk about activities happening at the moment or future plans.                                                                                              e.g. Kelly is studying for a test now/Kelly is working next week.

In the past simple, you talk about punctual and finished actions in the past.                                                                                                                  e.g. Juan read a great book last week.

In the present perfect, you talk about actions that started in the past but they have a continuity until the present or indefinite actions.                                  e.g. I have visited Miami three times before.

In the past continuous, you talk about a past action that had a conitnuity for a certain time in the past.                                                                                 e.g. I was washing the dishes last night.

In the future (WILL/GOING TO), you talk about future short-term or long-term plans.                                                                                                             e.g. The world will end in 50 years/Ana is going to have breakfast with her mother next Monday.

As you can see, all tenses in English make reference to times in the past, present or future and what you have to do is just to practice them and know how to use them correcly.

The Killer Clowns

One dark and stormy night, a loud bang came from the garage. A 10 year old girl named Rosa went to see what it was. When Rosa opened the door the lights went out. She knew there was a flashlight near the door, but she couldn’t find it, and the breaker-box was on the other side of the house in the basement. Suddenly the lights started to flicker on and off. She heard footsteps coming down the hall. Rosa ran and hid is a closet across the hall, she whispered to herself “Please don’t come this way”. “Clump, Clump, Clump” She heard the footsteps getting closer, all of a sudden they stopped in front of the door and went back down the hall. Rosa let out a sigh of relief. Then she heard a clown car and thought “That’s odd, clown car’s don’t pass through this late” but realized there were killer clowns on the loose and the police couldn’t stop them, the clowns already killed the entire police force. She knew what she had to do. The kitchen was down the hall and it sounded like the intruder was upstairs in the attic. Rosa had found a bag and started towards the kitchen, she knew exactly where the kitchen knives were and grabbed some food and a large carving knife. She also grabbed her mother’s pistol and some ammo from the gun safe. She heard the front door rattling and knew to get to her room, because it was her and her puppy, Rose-Bud who was a pit bull, that night and it had no windows to get in through.

Rosa locked the room door and pushed the dresser and nightstand against the door to barricade the door. Rosa heard the honking of a rubber chicken, and she knew the clowns were here. Still instead of screaming she stayed silent, got the gun loaded and ready to fire then hid in her closet. She would be safe in there for the time being, suddenly she knew Chuckie had teamed up with the killer clowns. Who else would have the clowns teamed up with besides a haunted doll? Rosa heard a knife scraping against the wall, it was deafening. Rosa was still in her closet with Rose-Bud. “Bang, Bang, Bang” went the door, a clown had gotten in! The clown opened the closet door very slowly and got shot straight in the heart. The gunfire made Chuckie and all the clowns run, but they are still out there.
