🎯 The 'Action' Pattern
Look at how the story describes people. It uses a simple formula: Person → Action → Place/Person.
- Tom Barrack (Person) → met (Action) → leaders (Person)
- Tom Barrack (Person) → went (Action) → Baghdad (Place)
Why this helps you reach A2:
To speak basic English, you don't need long sentences. Just follow this path:
WHO + DID WHAT + WHERE/WHOM.
Word Power: Past vs. Now Notice the shift in the text:
- Past (It already happened): met, talked, went, told
- Now (Current state): is, thinks, works, wants
Simple Swap If you want to talk about yourself, just change the person:
- Tom Barrack met leaders I met my friend.
