Today
Miss Zu has taught us about non-linear text again. For today I could understand
it more than the previous class. Miss Zu has given us a task that we need to
present it next week on Tuesday. Today night, we have a replacement class. For tonight,
we have presentation about grammar. The group that present is Farah and Asmidah,
and the other group is Fatin and Amirah. Farah and Asmidah present about
present continuous and past continuous tense. The using of present continuous
tense are to show an action being done at the moment; to show the process of
doing a longer action which is in progress; to show a future action; and to
show an action that is repeated many times (always, constantly, frequently). The
using of past continuous tense are used when two action occurred at the same
time, but one action began earlier and was in progress when the other action occurred;
to mention something that happen at particular time or over period of time; and
when one action happens followed by another action in the past. Fatin and
Amirah present about present perfect tense and past perfect tense. Present perfect
tense is used to express past action with no specific time indicated. Rule number
one an action which took place in the past, the time of the action is unknown;
an action which started in the past but it effect has continued until the
present and will probably continue into the future; and repeated actions in the
past. Rule number two are the affirmative; the negative; and the interrogative.
Rule number three is time expressions (since, for, yet, recently/lately,
already, just, until, now/up to now/so far, ever, etc.). Past perfect tense is
used to describe an action which took place before another action in the past. Rule
number one are two actions that happened in the past, the verb of the earlier
action is in the past perfect, while the verb of the later action is in the simple
past; an action that happened before a particular time in the past. Rule number
two are the affirmative; the negative; and the interrogative. Rule number three
is time expressions (before, after, as soon as, when, until and by the time). That’s
all from me for today…
