    Quarter 4, Worksheet 1

    PRESENT PERFECT TENSE

    The present perfect is a verb tense which is used to show that an action has taken place once
    or many times before now. The present perfect is most frequently used to talk about experiences or
    changes that have taken place, but there are other less common uses as well.

    The present perfect is used to describe:


     An action or situation that started in the past and continues in the present.
    Example: I have lived in Bristol since 1984 (= and I still do.)
     An action performed during a period that has not yet finished.
    Example: She has been to the cinema twice this week (= and the week isn't over
    yet.)
     A repeated action in an unspecified period between the past and now.
    Example: We have visited Portugal several times.
     An action that was completed in the very recent past, expressed by 'just'.
    Example: I have just finished my work.
     An action when the time is not important.
    Example: He has read 'War and Peace'. (= the result of his reading is important)

    Forming the present perfect tense


    The present perfect tense is formed by writing has or have + past participle of a verb. We use
    has for singular noun or pronouns like he, she and it. On the other hand, we use have for plural nouns
    or pronouns like I, you, we, they.
    he
    she + has + past participle of a verb
    it
    I
    you + have + past participle of a verb
    we
    they

    Here are some of the verbs in present, past and past participle form:
