How to say "Tea" in Turkish

Do you know the difference between past simple and present perfect? One common challenge for English learners is understanding the difference between the present perfect and the past simple tenses. The past simple is used for actions that happened at a specific time in the past, like “I visited Paris last year.” In contrast, the present perfect is used for experiences or actions that happened at an unspecified time or that have relevance to the present, like “I have visited Paris.” The confusion often comes from how similar the sentences sound, but the subtle difference lies in whether the focus is on when it happened (past simple) or the result or experience (present perfect).

I have two English classes today, so I am going to university now…

In this episode, we are going to look at the current trade talks between China and the USA taking place in Switzerland. The trade talks appear to be going well, however, no deal has been reached at this time. So, will a deal be reached? That is the big question.

Being able to talk on a wide variety of topics is really helpful for getting a higher mark on the IELTS test. In this podcast I will help you to form opinions and ideas for Speaking Part 3 and Writing Part 2. You can also book a private lesson with me on my profile. Hope to see you in a lesson soon!

Recently, I became shorter. My weight history was as follows: When I was in grade seven, my weight was still about 45 kilograms. I rarely weighed myself until grade eight, I was extremely shocked to find that my weight was 55 kilograms!!! Maybe at that time I often ate dinner, then ate snacks, and went to sleep... I decided to change myself during the summer vacation! I followed some workout videos on my phone, and my weight dropped to 51 kilograms. When the summer vacation was over, I returned to school, my classmate thought I ate diet pills. Actually, I didn't believe in such things, and I knew nothing about them because I wasn't very fat. But I seemed to have eaten something similar. In grade seven, my classmate gave me a piece of candy. I didn't know it was for losing weight until I ate it, but I thought it was a normal candy. My classmate still hasn't changed. She was deceived out of her money when she tried to buy diet pills... My weight still remained at 53 kilograms until grade nine. But no matter how much I exercised during that period, my weight stayed the same. Suddenly, in grade ten my weight reached 56 kilograms. I was really shocked because during that summer vacation I didn't eat much. And the highest it reached was 58 kilograms, seriously I was very scared! Then I went running and skipped rope, and then my weight was stabilized at 55 kilograms. But no matter how intensively I exercise during that period, my weight remained same. Actually, it was also because I didn't control my diet... I found that my weight suddenly dropped to 52.5 kilograms until about ten days ago. But I thought maybe after a while, it would quickly return to 55 kilograms. However, I found that it remained at 52.5 kilograms. This reason was that I rarely ate and was a bit anorexic during the period...So I concluded that the key to losing weight was to eat less.

Today,I went to university. After that, I went to clinic. It was so hurt.
