⚡ The Power of 'Must'
In this text, we see a word that tells us something is necessary (you have no choice): Must.
- India's women's team must beat Australia...
- The players must be fast and strong.
How to use it: [Person/Group] must [Action]
Simple Examples:
- I must study English. (It is necessary for me)
- You must eat breakfast. (It is a rule for health)
🕒 Now vs. Then (The 'Right Now' Pattern)
Notice how the writer talks about the present moment to show a change:
- "...players who play well right now."
- "...is now in the final group games."
Use now or right now when you want to show that something is different from the past.
- Past: I was a student.
- Present: I am a teacher now.
