Vocabulary Learning
💡 The "Past Action" Pattern
In this story, everything already happened. To tell a story, we often add -ed to the end of a word.
Look at these changes:
- Finish Finished
- Hurt Hurt (This one is a rebel; it stays the same!)
- Hit Hit (Another rebel!)
The A2 Logic: When you see -ed, you know the action is over.
Quick Examples from the text:
- "He finished his work." He is done now.
- "The cameraman was hurt." It happened in the past.
Watch out for "Was/Were": We use was for one person (Mr. Barton was...) and were for more than one person (Workers were...). This tells us how things were at that moment.
