II. Grammar Exercises
1. Tenses
Use of simple past tense:
1) The simple past tense is used to talk about completed actions and habits in the past. e.g. Shakespeare died in 1616.
We used to walk a mile in the morning when we were in London.
2) Past tense of verbs such as want, wonder, hope is used for polite inquiries. e.g. I wondered how you liked the film. Use of past progressive:
1) The past progressive indicates a limited duration of time and is thus a convenient way to indicate that something took place (in the simple past) while something else was happening. e.g. Carlos lost his watch while he was running.
2
2) The past progressive can express incomplete action.
e.g. I was sleeping on the couch when Bertie smashed through the door. ※ as opposed to the simple past, which suggests a completed action e.g. I slept on the couch last night.
3) The past progressive is also used to poke fun at or criticize an action that is sporadic but habitual in nature.
e.g. Tashonda was always handing in late papers.
4) We use the past progressive of verbs such as wonder to show politeness. e.g. I was wondering if you could give me a lift.
※ This use is even more polite and tentative than the simple past.
Use of past perfect tense:
1) The past perfect tense expresses the idea that something occurred before another action in the past. It can also show that something happened before a specific time in the past. e.g. I had never seen such a beautiful beach before I went to Kauai.
2) If the past perfect tense is not referring to an action at a specific time, it is not optional. Compare the examples below. Here the past perfect tense is referring to a lack of experience rather than an action at a specific time. For this reason, the past perfect tense cannot be used. e.g. She never saw a bear before she moved to Alaska. Not Correct
She had never seen a bear before she moved to Alaska. Correct
Practice:
Complete the following sentences using the simple past, past progressive or past perfect tense.
Keys:
1. were bathing, were looking, were playing (The past progressive refers to an event in progress.) 2. was leaving, was, arrived, learned, had left, found, had used 3. was cycling, stepped, was going, managed, didn’t hit
4. was playing; was singing (We use the simple past tense to express a short action that happens in the middle of the long action. We can join the two ideas with when or while.) 5. tried, wanted, had had, ended
6. entered, didn't recognize, had lost, grown
2. Verbs of perception
Verbs of perception are a set of verbs denoting the use of one of the physical senses. Some verbs of perception see, look at, hear, listen, and feel, along with watch and sense can be used with objects followed by verbs in -ing form, -ed form and infinitive form. e.g. We heard you leave. (Emphasis on our hearing.) We heard you leaving. (Emphasis on your leaving.)
John has never heard the piece played before. (Emphasis on the passive voice of play.)

Keys: 1. take 2. barking 3. lifted, thrown 4. playing 5. grow
3. Special word order with as and though
In a concessive clause introduced by though or although, the complement or the adverbial can be placed at the beginning of the sentence. The formula for the inversion is: complement / adverbial + as / though + subject + predicate verb
e.g. Old as / though he is, he works hard as a young man.
Hard as / though he studied, he did not pass the examination.
Practice：Rewrite the following sentences according to the model. Model: Though it was brief, it had been spent in that big old house.

2. Though I admire him much as a writer, I do not like him as a man. 3. Although he is a child, he knows a lot.
4. Though he worked hard, he didn’t finish the work satisfactorily.

1. Poor as / though he was, he was honest.
2. Much as/though I admire him as a writer, I do not like him as a man. 3. Child as / though he is, he knows a lot.
4. Hard as / though he worked, he didn’t finish the work satisfactorily.
4. Present participle phrases used as adverbials
Present participle phrases can be used as adverbials to express reason, condition, time, result and attending circumstances.
e.g. Turning around, she saw an ambulance driving up. (time) Knowing English well, he can read Shakespeare. (reason) Working still harder, you will succeed. (condition)
Their car was caught in a traffic jam, thus causing the delay. (result) He sat at the window eating. (attending circumstances)
