Past simple

Study this example:


Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was an Austrian musician and composer. He
lived from 1756 to 1791. He started composing at the age of five and wrote
more than 600 pieces of music. He was only 35 years old when he died.
Lived/started/wrote/was/died are all past simple.
W.A. MOZART
Very often the past simple ends in -ed (regular verbs):
 I work in a travel agency now. Before that I worked in a department store.
 We invited them to our party, but they decided not to come.
 The police stopped me on my way home last night.
 Laura passed her exam because she studied very hard.
But many verbs are irregular. The past simple does not end in -ed. For example:
write → wrote Mozart wrote more than 600 pieces of music.
see → saw We saw Tanya in town a few days ago.
go → went I went to the cinema three times last week.
shut → shut It was cold, so I shut the window.

List of irregular verbs

In questions and negatives we use did/didn't + infinitive (enjoy/see/go etc.):

I enjoyed you enjoye


she saw d
they went did she saw
they went

I enjoye
d A: Did you go out last night?
didn’
she t saw
B: Yes, I went to the cinema, but I didn't enjoy the film much.
they went

 'When did Mr Thomas die?' 'About ten years ago.'


 They didn't invite us to the party, so we didn't go.
 'Did you have time to do the shopping?' 'No, I didn't.'
 In the following examples, do is the main verb in the sentence (did... do / didn't do):
 What did you do at the weekend? (not What did you at the weekend?)
 I didn't do anything. (not I didn't anything)
The past of be (am/is/are) is was/were:
I/he/she/it - was/wasn't was I/he/she/it?
we/you/they - were/weren't were we/you/they?
My favourite sport
My name is Marco and I'm 11 years old. I'm Italian and my favourite sport is
soccer. I play soccer twice a week at school and in the afternoon I have soccer
lessons on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. On Saturdays afternoon I usually have
a match with my team, we are very good at soccer and we often win. Of course
I'm in the school team too! I have a lot of friends and on Sundays afternoon we
play soccer in the park. My favourite team is Milan and I hope to be a champion
as Paolo Maldini.

Hello, my name is Timothy and I'm American. I'm 12


years old and I'm fond of basket. Here in the USA, it is one of the
national sports. Every family has a basket in the garden, and you
can see lots of boys and girls playing in the parks. I play basket
every afternoon with my friends and on Sundays morning I play
in the garden with my father and my brother. I'm in the school
team and every month we have a match against other teams: w
out of 6. My favourite player is Michael Jordan.

I'm Simon and I live in England. I'm 15 years old and I practice
cycling. I like this sport because I can practice it in the parks. In the summer I go
cycling every day for three hours, usually in the morning. In winter it's difficult to go
cycling because it often rains. I always wear and helmet to protect my head and drink a
lot of water. My parents are also fond of cycling, so we often go on holiday by bike. Last
year we went in Scotland by bicycle and it was fantastic.

1. How old is Marco and where is he from?


2. When does he go to soccer lessons?
3. Who is his favourite player? 5. Where is Timothy from?
4. Which sport does he play?
5. When does he play basket with his father?
6. Who is his favourite player?
7. How old is Simon and where does he live?
8. Which sport does he practice?
9. Why does he like it?
10. Where did he go by bike?
