PRESENT PERFECT

PRESENT PERFECT
O present perfect é empregado em diversas situações. O que existe em comum entre elas é
que a ação sempre tem alguma relação com o presente. Para formar o present perfect usamos o verbo
HAVE/HAS como verbo auxiliar e o verbo principal no PAST PARTICIPLE.

I - PRESENT PERFECT para ações que já aconteceram, mas que repercurtem no presente Usamos o
present perfect para falar de ações / eventos que aconteceram no passado
sem que se mencione quando: o importante não é o quando a ação ocorreu e sim os seus resultados no
presente.
Example: “I have finished my homework”.[acabei de fazer o trabalho de casa]. O que
importa é que isso tendo acontecido, agora já posso sair / navegar na Internet / ir dormir etc.

Exercise A - Say what has happened in each situation. Use the clues below and start
your sentences with pronoun:

Break his glasses / lose her car keys. / miss the bus / win the lottery

They have missed the bus . Now they will have to walk.

___________________________. Now she can't open

her car.

. He's a rich man

now.

. Now he can´t read.

II - PRESENT PERFECT X SIMPLE PAST

Conforme visto acima, usamos o present perfect para se referir a uma ação que já aconteceu, mas
não se sabe ou não se quer mencionar quando ocorreu - porque o que importa é a ação em si e suas
consequências no presente.
Já quando nos referimos a uma ação passada e queremos mencionar quando ela ocorreu porque isso
é um dado importante - usamos o simple past.

Exercise B: Complete the sentences with the present perfect or the simple past of the
verbs in parentheses:

1- My friend is a writer, He many books. (write)

2- I tennis last week. (play) 3-
My sister and I all of the Harry Potter films! (see)
4- My dad abroad many times. (be)
5- The teacher the classroom 10 minutes ago. (leave) 6-
The weather very good yesterday. (be)
7- He to much beer. He shouldn´t drive. (drink)

III- - PRESENT PERFECT COM SINCE E FOR

Usamos o present perfect com SINCE e FOR para falar de uma ação que começou no passado e
continua no presente.
Examples:
 I have studied English since 5th grade. [estudo inglês desde a 5a série]
 I have studied English for four years. [estudo inglês há 4 anos]
Usamos since quando vamos dizer quanclo a ação começou; usarnos for quando vamos dizer há quanto
tempo a ação acontece. Portanto, a regra

since + o início do período de tempo For + o período de tempo

Exercise C - Write sentences to say how long these things have happened.
Use since or for and the expressions from the box.
