Давайте разберем задачу по частям. В ней содержатся вопросы о прошедшем времени и необходимо будет заполнить пропуски.
Часть 1: Where were these people at 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon?
- Jo was in bed.
- Jack and Kate were at the party.
- Sue was at the library.
- And you? I was at work.
Часть 2: Write am/is/are (present) or was/were (past).
Last year she was 22, so she is 23 now.
- Объяснение: Мы используем "was" для прошлого времени и "is" для настоящего, так как это заявление о текущем возрасте.
Today the weather is nice, but yesterday it was very cold.
- Объяснение: "is" используется для описания текущей погоды, "was" для описания погоды в прошлом.
I am hungry. Can I have something to eat?
- Объяснение: Здесь мы описываем текущее состояние, поэтому используем "am".
I feel fine this morning, but I was very tired last night.
- Объяснение: "feel" описывает текущее состояние, а "was" относится к прошлому.
Where were you at 11 o'clock last Friday morning?
- Объяснение: Мы спрашиваем о месте, где человек был в конкретный момент времени в прошлом, поэтому используем "were".
Don't buy those shoes. They are very expensive.
- Объяснение: Здесь идет речь о текущем состоянии обуви, поэтому используем "are".
I like your new jacket. Is it expensive?
- Объяснение: Вопрос о теперешнем состоянии, поэтому используем "is".
This time last year I was in Paris.
- Объяснение: Мы говорим о том, где кто-то находился в прошлом, следовательно, "was".
'Where were Sam and Joe?' 'I don't know. They were here a few minutes ago.'
- Объяснение: Мы снова спрашиваем о местоположении в прошлом, поэтому используем "were".
Часть 3: Write was/were or wasn't/weren't.
We weren't happy with the hotel. Our room was very small and it wasn’t clean.
- Объяснение: "weren't" указывает на отрицание в прошлом.
Mark wasn't at work last week because he was ill. He's better now.
- Объяснение: "wasn't" отрицательная форма для состояния.
Yesterday was a public holiday, so the banks were closed. They're open today.
- Объяснение: Мы используем "was" и "were" для описания фактов в прошлом.
' Were Kate and Ben at the party?' 'Kate was there, but Ben wasn't.'
- Объяснение: Используем "were" в вопросе и "was" и "wasn't" в ответе.
Where are my keys? They were on the table, but they're not there now.
- Объяснение: Мы говорим о том, где ключи были в прошлом.
You were at home last night. Where were you?
- Объяснение: Описание местоположения в прошлом, используем "were".
Часть 4: Write questions from these words + was/were. Put the words in the right order.
Why were you late this morning?
Was your exam difficult?
Where were Sue and Chris last week?
How much was your new camera?
Why were you angry yesterday?
Was the weather nice last week?
Заключение
В этой задаче мы познакомились с использованием глаголов "to be" в настоящем и прошедшем времени. Основное внимание уделяется различиям в использовании "am/is/are" для настоящего и "was/were" для прошедшего времени, а также формированию вопросов и отрицаний.
