b.When do you use the past simple ? When do we use the present perfect? Can you think of the rule?
Past simple: We use the past simple for an action that started and finished in the past.We often use specific time expressions ( yesterday,last month, two years ago) with the past simple.
Ex: Last year we provided evening classes for fifty children.
Present perfect: We use the present perfect for an action that happened some time before now . The exact time is not important. We often use ever,never,so far,several times... with the present perfect.
Ex: We’ve asked people to donate books and clothes to the children .
