Interviewer: What happened?Jan: Well, I was on holiday in Barcelona in 1978. At the end of my holiday, I went to the

port to get the ferry to Italy. I was saying goodbye to my sister at the port, when I

discovered that I didnt have my passport only half an hour before the ferry left!

Interviewer: So what did you do?

Jan: I went to the police station at the port and asked them if theyve found a British

passport. They looked at me and said Well, weve found a British passport, but it isnt

yours. So I said , Whats the name on passport? The looked and they said JanLatham Koenig. So I said Thats me, it is my passport! But they looked at the photo

and then they looked at me again and said No, this passport is not yours The problem

was that my passport was from 1968, ten years before. In the photo I had long hair, like

a typical hippie. But then in 1978, I looked completely different. I had very short hair. And

I was wearing a jacket and a tie.

Interviewer: So what happened?

Jan: Well, luckily I had my driving licence in my wallet with my name on it. After a lot of

talking they decided to give me my passport. Thanks God!

Interviewer: And did you catch the ferry?

Jan: Yes, just!

1:

a. Correct- In British English we use the present perfect if we talk about a result of a

past action.

b. In US English, its common to use the past simple to talk about the result of a past

action, but this isnt correct in British English.

c. This construction is not correct.

d. This construction is not correct in this context but could be used in a conditional

sentence, for example - Had you cut your hair, you might have got the job. But you

just look so untidy!.

2:

a. Use 'did you live' to talk about actions which are now finished.

b. Correct- Use 'have you lived' (present perfect) to talk about a state which started in

the past but still continues today.


78/108

78

Mdulo VII

c. The simple present cannot be used in this context. 'How long?' connects a time in

the past to the present, therefore the present perfect is the most natural form to use.

d. The past continuous form would be used if the person were not still living in Sydney.

3:

a. 'Just' tells us something happened a few moments ago, e.g.: 'Im not hungry. I've just

had lunch'

b. Use 'yet' in negatives and questions, e.g.: 'Has the postman been yet?'

c. Correct- Use 'still' with the present perfect to emphasize a continuing state.

d. Use 'already' to say something has happened before now or a particular time,

e.g.:'Sorry, I've already eaten'.

4:

a. If you talk about the first time you experience something - use the present perfect

rather than the simple past.

b. Flied is not a correct form of the verb to fly. (Fly / flew / flown)

c. Flied is not a correct form of the verb to fly. (Fly / flew / flown

d. Correct

5:

a. With questions like 'Have you?' you need the past participle. Ate is the past form.

b. Correct- 'Have you + past participle (eaten)'.

c. The past participle of 'eat' is irregular. (eat / ate / eaten)

d. With questions like 'Have you?' you need the past participle. Eat is the infinitive

form.

6:

a. Correct - 'Just' tells us something happened a few moments ago.

b. Use 'yet' in negatives and questions, e.g.: 'Has the postman been yet?'

c. Use 'still' to emphasize a continuing state. e.g.: 'He still hasn't called me'

d. Use just about to for when something is going to happen in a very short time.
