Explanation:
In this activity we have to choose the correct form of the verb to complete the sentence. We have to identify which tense would fit the sentence best, Preterite or Imperfect.
In order to know which one to choose we have to know when do we use them. The preterite tense is used to talk about finished actions at a specific moment in the past. And the imperfect tense is used to talk about past habitual actions, or actions that were in progress at a point in the past.
The sentences in english are:
1. Last year I worked to get money. <em>Preterite</em>
2. When I was a child, I would go out to play with my neighbors in the summer. <em>Imperfect</em>
3. My mother always used to make ice lemonade. <em>Imperfect</em>
