🕒 The 'Time-Travel' Shift
In this story, we see a switch between things that already happened and things that will happen.
1. The Past (Done) Look at these words: stopped, happened, worked, said, studied. → They all end in -ed (mostly). This tells us the action is finished.
- Example: He worked (Past) → He is not working now.
2. The Future (Next) Look at the word: will. → We use will + action to talk about a plan or a result.
- Example: They will vote (Future) → This hasn't happened yet.
Quick Logic Map:
- Report written → Past (-ed)
- UN studied → Past (-ed)
- Countries vote → Future (will)
Key A2 Tip: If you see -ed, look backward. If you see will, look forward.
