“Cut” is the same for both present and past tense. “She cuts the cheese” - present. “She cut the cheese” - past. “Run” becomes “ran” in past tense. “I ran so far away” - past tense. “Eat” becomes “ate” in simple past tense, as in “I ate dinner.” “Eaten” is the past participle, as in “I have eaten dinner.”
