⚡ The 'Action' Pattern

To speak English at an A2 level, you need to connect Who did it with What they did. This article uses a very simple pattern:

[Person] $\rightarrow$ [Action Word] $\rightarrow$ [Object/Person]

Examples from the text:

Police $\rightarrow$ arrested $\rightarrow$ people
They $\rightarrow$ hit $\rightarrow$ him
They $\rightarrow$ stole $\rightarrow$ money

💡 Tutor Tip: The 'Past' Sound Most of these actions end in -ed (arrested), which tells us the story happened in the past. Some are 'special' words that change completely (steal $\rightarrow$ stole).

Key Words to Learn:

Arrested: When police take someone to jail.
Stole: Took something that was not theirs.
Trick: To lie to someone to get something.
