⏳ The 'Now' vs. 'Later' Shift

In this story, we see a clear change between what is happening right now and what will happen in the future. To reach A2, you need to spot these two patterns:

1. Right Now (The Present) We use simple words to describe the current state.

  • She is awake.
  • She is sick.
  • She is in a room.

2. The Future (Coming Soon) When the writer talks about next year or the autumn, the word will appears. This is the 'future signal'.

  • She will not sing...
  • She will not perform...

Quick Guide:

  • Status → is/are (Now) \rightarrow She is better.
  • Plan → will (Future) \rightarrow She will sing.

💡 Vocabulary Tip: 'Still' Notice the word still. It means a situation has not changed.

  • She is still sick \rightarrow (She was sick yesterday \rightarrow she is sick today).
