🕒 The 'Time Jump' (Now vs. Then)

In this story, we see two ways to talk about time. This is a key part of A2 English.

1. The Present (Right Now) We use simple words for things that are true today.

  • Example: "A.J. Brown is now with the team."
  • Pattern: Person \rightarrow is/are \rightarrow place/group.

2. The Past (Finished) When something happened and ended, we often add -ed to the action word.

  • Example: "He wore number 11 before" or "Brown went to a party."

Quick Guide: How it changes

  • Is \rightarrow Was
  • Want \rightarrow Wanted
  • Go \rightarrow Went

💡 Word Tip: 'Become' Look at the phrase: "become better". Use become when a person changes from one thing to another (e.g., Student \rightarrow Teacher).
