Vocabulary Learning
🛑 The 'Past' vs 'Now' Switch
Look at how the story moves between things that happened before and things that are true today. To get to A2, you need to spot the difference in the verbs.
1. The Past (Finished Actions) These words tell us about things that are over.
- Caught →’ Police grabbed them.
- Flew → He used the drone once.
- Sold/Stole → He did these crimes before.
- Lived → He stayed in Mexico for a while.
2. The Now (Current Status) These words tell us where they are at this moment.
- Is → Lorenzo is in Georgia.
- Are → Both men are in jail.
💡 Quick Pattern: "To be allowed"
In the text, we see: "Drones are not allowed" and "He is not allowed to be in the USA."
Use this when something is forbidden (against the rules):
Person/Thing → is/are → not allowed
Example: Smoking is not allowed here. You cannot smoke here.
