Review:
Present Perfect
 We make it using the verb have + past participle.
 We use it to talk about recent events or a past event which the speaker
feels is connected with the present.
Past Simple
 We use it to talk about finished action in the past.
Present Simple
 We use it to talk about present fact or events.
Present Perfect vs. Present Simple/ Past Simple
 We use the present perfect, not the present simple or past simple, for an
event or situation which began in the past and continues in the present,
when we want to say how much time it has been going on.
Harvard has been a university since 1636.
 Go has two past participles: gone and been. There is difference in
meaning.
My sister has gone to London. (= and still is here)
My sister has been to London. (=and she came back)
 We use the present perfect when we do not know exactly when the past
event took place, or it is not important. We use past simple to give details
later.
 The typical word for present perfect are: since, recently, never, yet,
already, ever, for, lately, …
 The typical word for past simple are: ago, in 2000, last week, on my
birthday, when, yesterday, …
