Step 1 Learning about the present perfect tense
Here is a brief review of the form and function of the present perfect tense.
The present perfect is used when the time period has not finished:
I have seen three movies this week.
(This week has not finished yet.)
The present perfect is often used when the time is not mentioned:
The present perfect is often used with for and since.
The present perfect is formed like this: have plus past participle
Step 3 Doing practice
Eddie was born four years ago
past present
We use the simple past tense to talk about what happened at a definite time in the past.
Eddie has lived with Millie since he was born.
Eddie has lives with Millie for four years.
Step 4 Drawing a conclusion
We make positive statements and negative statements using the present perfect tense like this:
have /has (+not) + Past participle
We usually use these forms when we speak: hasn’t = has not, haven’t = have not
Look up the past participles in the dictionary if necessary. There is also a table of irregular verbs on page 122.
We ask and answer questions using the present perfect tense like this.
Have I /you/we/they arrived? Yes, I/you/we/they have. No, I/you/we/they haven’t/have not.
Has he/she/it arrived? Yes, he/she/it has.
No, he/she/it hasn’t/has not.
Step 5 Doing practice
a. Review the use of the present perfect tense
b. Fill in the blanks with the right tense of the verbs.
1. Eddie ___________ (be) born four years ago.
2. Eddie __________ (live) with Millie since he was born.
3. Mr Smith __________ (not come) back yet.
4. _____ they _____ (see) any exhibition recently?
5. ---- _____ you _____ (finish) your work? ---- No, I haven’t.
