⚡ The 'No' Power
In this story, the USA says no to people. In English, we use different words to show that something is not allowed or impossible.
Look at these patterns:
- Cannot → "The Iran team cannot stay."
- Could not → "A referee could not enter."
- Said no to → "The USA said no to visas."
The A2 Secret: If you want to say something is blocked, use CANNOT.
Compare:
- Present: I cannot go → (Right now, it is impossible).
- Past: I could not go → (Yesterday, it was impossible).
