My Daily Routine
I wake up at eight o'clock in the morning. I do yoga first and then I take a quick shower. Afterwards, I make breakfast. Usually, I have an avocado toast and a coffee with milk. At nine o'clock, I take a bus to go to the center. I start working at half-past nine and I finish working at 2:00 pm. For lunch I usually go to the cafeteria and order a Spanish omelette and a salad. Sometimes I go to an Italian restaurant to eat some pizza. At half-past three, I take a bicycle to go to the University. Right now I am earning a master's degree in English studies. I have classes from 4 to 8 o'clock in the evening. After classes, I go to the gym or go out with my friends. Before going to bed, I read a book or watch an episode of my favorite series. Right now I'm reading The Little Prince to improve my French. I fall asleep at midnight.

There are no notes for this quiz.

Natalie: Hey, Todd. Let's talk about countries.

Todd: All right. Let's do it.

Natalie: You live in Japan right now.

Todd: Yes. That's right. I live in Japan. I teach English in Japan.

Natalie: Oh, cool. Tell me, what's expensive in Japan?

Todd: Well, Japan is a very, very expensive country. Transportation is very expensive in Japan. Train tickets are expensive. Also, sometimes, taxis are expensive. Even buses are expensive.

Natalie: Wait. You don't have a car in Japan?

Todd: Actually, I do have a car. That's funny because in Japan, cars are very cheap. Cars are cheap but taxis are expensive. It's crazy.

Natalie: That's so weird. In the U.K., where I'm from, taxis are really cheap, but to have your own car, it's so expensive.

Todd: Wow. That's strange.

Natalie: I'm really interested in Japan. Tell me, what's beautiful in Japan?

Todd: Oh, Japan has lots of beautiful things. The temples are very, very beautiful. The nature and the scenery are beautiful as well. There are beautiful forests, beautiful lakes, beautiful beaches, and even beautiful buildings.

Natalie: Cool. What is difficult about living in Japan?

Todd: Well, Japanese is difficult. Reading Japanese is very difficult. Writing Japanese is difficult because Kanji is difficult. Kanji is the Japanese character.

Natalie: How many characters are there in Kanji?

Todd: There are about 2,000 characters. It's difficult to learn all the characters, all the Kanji. It's very hard.

Natalie: Wow. I bet that's really tough. Tell me, what's fun about living in Japan?

Todd: Well, there's many things that are fun about Japan. The people are fun. They're very nice. Teaching English in Japan is fun. The students are very nice. Day-to-day life in Japan is fun and exciting. I live in Japan, but you live in Thailand. What about Thailand? What is expensive in Thailand?

Natalie: Well, Thailand is a really cheap place to live, but some restaurants are really expensive. For example, if you go to a American restaurant, that's very expensive, but if you go to street food carts, they're really cheap.

Todd: Yeah. The street food is very delicious.

Natalie: It's amazing.

Todd: Speaking of food, what Thai foods are really delicious?

Natalie: My favorites are Pad Ka Prao. This is pork. It's spicy with rice and chili. I also like Tom Yum Goong. This is like a soup, but it's very spicy. It usually comes with shrimp and mushrooms, ginger. I usually get some rice.

Todd: Yeah. I love Tom Yum Goong. It's really, really good. What is difficult about living in Thailand?

Natalie: I think that transport is a very difficult part of living in Thailand. If you have a car, the roads are very busy. It takes a long time to get anywhere in the city. I usually use the subway or the skytrain system, but these get really busy in the morning. When I'm taking the train to work, there's usually so many people on the train at the same time. Sometimes, it actually makes me late for work.

Todd: Yeah. The trains in Japan are really busy too. What is fun about life in Thailand?

Natalie: Good question. I really like the people here. Thai people are so friendly. They're very fun. They always like to hang out.

Todd: Yeah. Thailand sounds like a nice place to live.

Natalie: Yeah. It's a great place to live, actually.

Todd: Hey, Natalie, I like your outfit. It looks really cute.

Natalie: Oh, hey Todd. Thank you.

Todd: So, that shirt looks expensive. Did it cost a lot?

Natalie: Oh, this one? Yeah. It was about $50.

Todd: $50? That's a lot.

Natalie: I know. It's an American brand.

Todd: Ah. Do they have that shirt in different colors?

Natalie: Yes, so I actually have this top in six colors.

Todd: Really? What colors?

Natalie: I have it in purple, blue, red, gray, white, and black. Actually, I have two black ones, so that's seven.

Todd: You have two shirts in black? Why?

Natalie: Well, black is such a good color to wear. It matches everything.

Todd: Yeah. So true, so true. What about your pants? Those pants are pretty cool too.

Natalie: Oh, these? Yeah. These were much cheaper than the tops. I bought these in San Francisco. They cost about $40.

Todd: Ooh. Those are cheap. That's a good price.

Natalie: It is, and I only have one pair of these.

Todd: And your shoes? Did you buy those shoes in San Francisco too?

Natalie: No, I didn't buy these in San Francisco. These, I bought online.

Todd: You bought them online?

Natalie: Yes. These sandals are really hard to find, so I had to buy them through Amazon.

Todd: Oh, I like Amazon. I buy lots of things on Amazon. For example, I bought this watch on Amazon.

Natalie: How much did it cost?

Todd: Well, this watch was really cheap. This watch only cost about $20.

Natalie: Whoa.

Todd: Yeah, but I have two watches, and I also bought a nice, gold watch on Amazon. That watch was very expensive. It cost $200.

Natalie: Whoa, $200 on a watch? I think my watch only cost maybe $70, but I really like this watch. It's an Apple Watch. I bought it in Malaysia. I've had it for about two years now, but I think now that I have an Apple Watch, I'll always have Apple Watches.

Todd: Yeah, that is a nice watch. I want an Apple Watch too.

Natalie: Yeah, they're so cool. I spend so much time on my phone, and the watch works really well with my phone. I definitely recommend it.

Todd: Yeah, I like this cheap watch, because if it rains, or if I play sports, or if I am traveling, I can take my cheap watch, because this watch is not important. I can break it. I can lose it. I can do anything. But my gold watch, that watch is expensive, so I keep it at home. I only wear it on nice occasions.

Natalie: Oh, well it's nice to have something a little more expensive, but my watch can tell me what the weather's like, my watch can tell me how many calories I've burned, and my watch can tell me what the time is anywhere in the world.

Todd: You know, I think I need to get a watch like that.

Natalie: This is the greatest watch.

Meg: So, sometimes you do a little work on Wednesdays?

Todd: Yes, but I do work at my house.

Meg: Oh, right.

Todd: I never go to school on Wednesday.

Meg: Why not?

Todd: Because it's a day off. So, how about Monday? Are you busy on Monday?

Todd: Yeah, Mondays are busy for me too. Mondays are busy. Thursdays also are busy. Tuesday and Friday are not so busy.

Meg: Your schedule sounds a little similar to mine.

Todd: Yeah. Well, we're both teachers.

Meg: That's true.

Todd: What about activities? Do you do any activities during the week?

Meg: During the week, if I have free time, sometimes I will watch a TV show or a movie and I also go to Japanese language class.

Todd: Oh, nice.

Meg: Yeah, so sometimes I have homework so I have to do my Japanese language homeworks some nights. What about you?

Todd: I play futsal on Tuesday nights. Every Tuesday, I play futsal with my friends for two hours and that's fun. And then, sometimes on Friday, I meet my friends for dinner.

Meg: That sounds good.

Todd: And I also like sports so I usually watch sports on TV on Monday.

Meg: What sports do you usually watch on Monday?

Todd: I watch everything. I watch baseball. I watch basketball. I watch American football and I watch soccer. So I come home and I watch a video of a game from Saturday or Sunday. I don't watch sports on Saturday or Sunday. I watch the video later on Monday night.

Meg: Is it better that way?

Todd: Yeah. Usually, I don't check the internet, so I don't know the score.

Meg: Well, it sounds like you have a busy schedule.

Todd: You too.

O Simple Past , também chamado de Past Simple (passado simples), é um dos tempos verbais do inglês. Ele é equivalente ao passado simples na língua portuguesa.

Quando usar?

O Simple Past é usado para indicar ações passadas já concluídas, ou seja, para falar de fatos que já aconteceram; que começaram e terminaram no passado.

Expressões temporais usadas com o Simple Past

Para reforçar o uso do Simple Past, muitas expressões temporais são utilizadas nas frases.

Os exemplos mais usuais são: yesterday (ontem), the day before yesterday (anteontem), last night (ontem à noite), last year (ano passado), last month (mês passado), last week (semana passada), ago (atrás), etc.

Veja algumas frases no Simple Past com as expressões acima:

1 grafia americana; ² grafia britânica

Formação do Simple Past

A formação básica do Simple Past é feita com o uso do auxiliar did nas formas negativa e interrogativa, e com o acréscimo de - ed, - ied ou - d ao final do verbo principal no infinitivo, sem o to, na forma afirmativa.

Observe as tabelas abaixo e confira exemplos de conjugação do Simple Past.

Exemplo: verbo to dance (dançar - regular)

Exemplo: verbo to fly (voar - irregular)

Confira as explicações abaixo e aprenda como escrever frases com verbos no passado em inglês na forma afirmativa, na forma negativa e na forma interrogativa.

Affirmative form (forma afirmativa)

Regular verbs (verbos regulares)

Para usar os verbos regulares em frases afirmativas no Simple Past, basta mudar a terminação do verbo de acordo com as seguintes regras:

1. Aos verbos regulares terminados em - e, acrescenta-se somente o - d no final do verbo:

2. Aos verbos regulares terminados em consoante+ vogal+ consoante (CVC), duplica-se a última consoante e acrescenta-se o - ed:

3. Aos verbos terminados em - y precedido de consoante, retira-se o y e acrescenta-se o - ied:

4. Aos verbos terminados em - y precedido de vogal, acrescenta-se somente o - ed:

Irregular verbs (verbos irregulares)

Os verbos irregulares não possuem um padrão de formação. Eles não seguem as regras indicadas acima pois possuem uma forma própria.

Confira abaixo alguns verbos irregulares no passado simples:

Clique na imagem para imprimir

A formação de frases na afirmativa no Simple Past segue a estrutura abaixo:
Sujeito + verbo + complemento
Exemplo: She liked the English teacher. (Ela gostou da professora de inglês).

Negative Form (Forma Negativa)

Para a construção de frases negativas no Simple Past, o verbo did é empregado como verbo auxiliar.

O verbo principal não é conjugado no passado, uma vez que o auxiliar já indica o tempo verbal.

Sua estrutura frasal é feita da seguinte forma:
Sujeito + did + not + verbo principal + complemento
Exemplo: She did not like the English teacher. (Ela não gostou da professora de inglês)

Obs.: a forma contraída de did not é didn't.

Interrogative Form (Forma Interrogativa)

Da mesma maneira que acontece na forma negativa, o did é o verbo auxiliar utilizado para as frases interrogativas no Simple Past .

Veja a estrutura abaixo:
Did + sujeito + verbo principal + complemento
Exemplo: Did she like the English teacher? (Ela gostou da professora de inglês?)

Obs.: somente o verbo auxiliar ( did) é conjugado no Simple Past. Não é necessário conjugar o verbo principal.

Simple Past x Past Continuous

Muitos confundem os usos do passado em inglês, sobretudo do Simple Past (passado simples) e do Past Continuous (passado contínuo). Vejamos abaixo as diferenças entre eles:

Simple Past

Expressa ações passadas, ou seja, refere-se a fatos que começaram no passado e terminaram no passado. Nesse caso, as ações já foram concluídas. O verbo auxiliar did é usado somente nas formas negativa e interrogativa do Simple Past.

Exemplos:

You ran in the marathon. (Você correu na maratona.)

You did not run in the marathon. (Você não correu na maratona.)

Did you run in the marathon? (Você correu na maratona?)

Past Continuous

Expressa uma ação contínua que ocorreu no passado.

Diferentemente do Simple Past, ele é formado pelo verbo auxilar to be conjugado no Simple Past ( was/ were) + o gerúndio (- ing) do verbo principal.

Exemplos:

You were running in the marathon. (Você estava correndo na maratona.)

You were not running in the marathon. (Você não estava correndo na maratona.)

Were you running in the marathon? (Você estava correndo na maratona?)

Vídeo sobre Simple Past

No vídeo abaixo você encontra um resumo sobre o uso do Simple Past e dicas valiosas que vão ajudá-lo a usar esse tempo verbal corretamente.

Exercises (Exercícios)

1. (PUC-GO) Complete the following text using the correct past tense conjugation of the verbs in parenthesis in English:

Last night Susan (go) ____________ to her friend's birthday party. She (dance) ____________ with her boyfriend, and (eat) ____________ cake. After they (leave) ____________ the party, Susan and her boyfriend (decide) ____________ to go and watch a movie at the theater. They (see) ____________ the new Transformer's movie, and then they went home. When she (get) ____________ home, Susan (take) ____________ a shower and (fall) ____________ asleep quickly.

Choose the correct option from the ones listed below:

a) go/ dance / eat / leave / decide / see / get / take / fall.
b) went / danced / ate / left / decided / saw / got / took / fell.
c) will go / will dance / will eat / will leave / will decide / will see / will get / will take / will fall.
d) had gone / had danced / had eaten / had left / had decided / had seen / had gotten / had taken / had fallen.

Ver Resposta

Alternativa correta: b) went / danced / ate / left / decided / saw / got / took / fell.

a) ERRADA. Todos os verbos desta alternativa estão no infinitivo.

b) CORRETA: Todos os verbos desta alternativa estão conjugados no Simple Past, que é usado para indicar ações que começaram e terminaram no passado.

Em todas as frases, as lacunas correspondem a ações que tiveram início e foram concluídas no passado ( last night = noite passada).

c) ERRADA. Todos os verbos desta alternativa estão conjugados no Simple Future (Futuro Simples).

Exemplo: When we arrived, the movie had finished. (Quando chegamos, o filme tinha acabado.)

Veja que had finished (tinha terminado) é a flexão de Past Perfect e foi a primeira a começar e ser concluída. Já a ação que aconteceu depois ( we arrived = nós chegamos), está conjugada no Simple Past.

Nas frases do exercício, as lacunas correspondem a ações que começaram e terminaram no passado; sem que haja qualquer subordinação a outras ações.

a) He doesn't sells his car last week.
b) He doesn't sold his car last week.
c) He didn't sold his car last week.
d) He didn't sell his car last week.
e) He doesn't sell his car last week

Ver Resposta

Alternativa correta: d) He didn't sell his car last week.

O verbo da frase ( sold) está flexionado no Simple Past, logo, a forma negativa também deve estar no mesmo tempo verbal.

a) ERRADA. A flexão doesn't sells não existe. Além disso, tanto doesn't quanto sells são flexões do Simple Present.

b) ERRADA. A flexão doesn't sold não existe. Doesn't é um auxiliar do Simple Present enquanto sold é uma flexão do Simple Past.

c) ERRADA. Quando o auxiliar did é usado, o verbo principal não deve ser flexionado, mas sim estar na forma de infinitivo, sem o to.

d) CORRETA. Sold é a flexão de Simple Past do verbo to sell (vender), usada em frases afirmativas. Nas frases negativas no Simple Past, devemos usar did not ou didn't + verbo principal no infinitivo sem o to.

3. Complete as lacunas com os verbos entre parênteses conjugados no Simple Past:

a) She _______(go) to the shopping mall.
b) Marisa _______ (want/not) a ride.
c) Your parents _______ (make) a cake.
d) ______ (you talk) to his friends?
e) Sofia and Jane _______ (be) at the party.

Ver Resposta

Respostas corretas:
a) She went to the shopping mall. b) Marisa didn't want a ride. ou Marisa did not want a ride.
A forma negativa do Simple Past é formada de acordo com a seguinte estrutura:

Também é possível substituir o did + not pela sua forma contraída: didn't

A interrogativa do Simple Past é formada de acordo com a seguinte estrutura:

Did + sujeito + verbo principal no infinitivo sem o to

4. Assinale a alternativa correta para o Simple Past dos verbos irregulares: drive, forget e got.

a) drive; forgot; got
b) driven; forgotten; get
c) driven; forgotten; gotten
d) drove; forget; get
e) drove; forgot; got

Ver Resposta

Alternativa correta: e) drove; forgot; got

a) ERRADA. Esta alternativa está errada, pois drive pode ser uma flexão de Simple Present ou o infinitivo sem o to, mas não uma flexão de Simple Past. As flexões forgot e got estão corretas.

b) ERRADA. Driven e forgotten são flexões de Past Participle, e get pode ser uma flexão de Simple Present ou o infinitivo sem o to. Nenhuma das opções é flexão de Simple Past.

c) ERRADA. Todas as opções são flexões de Past Participle e não de Simple Past.

d) ERRADA. Drove é uma flexão de Simple Past, mas forget e get podem ser flexões de Simple Present ou formas de infinitivo sem o to.

e) CORRETA. Todas as flexões estão conjugadas no Simple Past.

5. Escreva a frase abaixo no Simple Past, nas formas afirmativa, negativa e interrogativa:

She will go to the United States of America.

Ver Resposta

Respostas corretas:
Forma afirmativa:
She went to the United States of America.
Forma negativa:
She did not go to the United States of America. ou She didn't go to the United States of America.

A estrutura de uma frase negativa no Simple Past é a seguinte:

Sujeito + did + not + verbo principal no infinitivo sem o to

Forma interrogativa:
Did she go to the United States of America?

A estrutura de uma frase interrogativa no Simple Past é a seguinte:

Did + sujeito + verbo principal no infinitivo sem o to

Have there been any failures that made your life better? Is there a right time to give up and stop trying? Or should you never give up? Can you think of any famous people who failed spectacularly at something? Talk about a time you failed at something you tried. Don't talk about anything that will make you uncomfortable or embarrassed. Can you think of any famous quotes or idioms about success or failure?
