Main Body

Ronda Rousey did not fight for nine years. She had health problems and a bad coach. Now, she is healthy and ready to fight again. Ronda does not like the UFC company.

Now, they use science to stay healthy and recover.

Conclusion

Learning

πŸ•’ Then vs. Now

Look at how the story compares the past and the present. This is a great way to move from A1 to A2 English.

The Past (Finished)

  • Ronda did not fight for nine years.
  • They worked too hard.

The Present (Current)

  • Now, she is healthy.
  • Now, they use science.

The Pattern When you want to show a change in your life, use this simple bridge: Past Action β†’\rightarrow Now, + Present Fact

Example from text: "In the past, they worked too hard... Now, they use science to stay healthy."

πŸ’° Talking about Money

Notice the phrase "pay enough money."

In English, we use "enough" to say if something is sufficient or not.

  • Not enough money β†’\rightarrow Too little.
  • Enough money β†’\rightarrow Just right.

Quick Tip: Put "enough" after the adjective (e.g., healthy enough) but before the noun (e.g., enough money).
