Useful Language Patterns

Talking About Habits

Subject + often + verb

We use often to talk about things that happen many times.

Example: I often walk by the river.

Example: The children often run on the grass.

Talking About the Past

Some verbs change in the past.

  • run → ran
  • begin → began
  • take → took
  • get → got

Example: The children ran to the tent.

Example: We took soup to the group.

Negative Sentences with "not"

Subject + be/verb + not

Example: The car is not white.

Example: We do not go to the port at night.

🔑 Đáp án & Giải thích

Ghi nhớ từ vựng:

  • often = thường xuyên.
  • ran là quá khứ của run.
  • began là quá khứ của begin.
  • took là quá khứ của take.
  • got là quá khứ của get.
  • until có nghĩa là "cho đến khi".
  • not dùng để tạo câu phủ định.

Ví dụ: "The children ran to the tent." nghĩa là "Những đứa trẻ đã chạy đến cái lều." Hành động xảy ra trong quá khứ nên dùng ran.
