Did she pass the exam?He didn't wash his car.

You didnt do your homework

It does not matter how far the past we speak of is, the important thing is that the periodwe consider is over

It is 1 in the afternoon and I say: Im very hungry because this morning I didnthave breakfast I use the past simple because we are now in the afternoon, so the morning hasfinished
