The "Action Change" Pattern

Look at how the story moves from the past to the now. This is the most important part of A2 English: knowing when something is finished and when it is happening currently.

1. Finished Actions (The Past) We use simple words to show the story is over:

  • Played \rightarrow He is not playing there now.
  • Arrested \rightarrow The police already took him.
  • Fired \rightarrow The job is gone.

2. Current Situations (The Now) We use "is", "does", and "needs" for things happening today:

  • He is in trouble \rightarrow Right now.
  • He needs a new team \rightarrow This is his current problem.
  • He wants a job \rightarrow This is his current feeling.

Quick Tip: If the word ends in -ed (like fired), it is a memory. If it uses is/does, it is a reality.
