Activity 4: Read, complete and share
My favourite book is The Old Man and the Sea. It was written in 1952 by the American writer Ernest Hemingway. The book became popular very quickly, In 1953, it won the Pulitzer Prize.
The main character is a fisherman who hasn’t caught anything for months. One day he catches a huge fish, but he has to fight for days to kill it. He finally succeeds, but he can’t pull the fish onto his boat. When the fisherman is on his way back, sharks eat the fish, leaving nothing but bones.
This book has taught me not to give up or doubt myself. I’m inspired by how hard the fisherman fights, even though he loses the fish in the end. As Hemingway said, “Man is not made for defeat. A man can be destroyed but not defeated” Even though I’ve already read the book three times, I’m not tired of it yet. If you’ve never read Ernest Hemingway, I recommend this book.

Simple past tense 和 Present perfect tense
■ 时间侧重点不同
一般过去时(Simple past tense):强调过去某个具体时间发生的动作,常与 last week, yesterday, in 2020 等明确的过去时间状语连用,动作已结束且与现在无关。
现在完成时(Present perfect tense):强调过去动作对现在的影响或结果,不与明确的过去时间状语连用,常搭配 ever, never, already, yet, just, recently 等词。
■ 结构形式不同
一般过去时:直接使用动词的过去式(如:finished, read, visited)。
现在完成时:结构为 have/has + 动词的过去分词(如:have finished, has read)。
