The Present Perfect Simple Tense
We use the present perfect passive when it is more important to talk about an action than
the person who did it: نستخدم المبني للمجهول عندما يكون الكالم عن الحدث أهم من الكالم عن الشخص
How to form the present perfect
To make the positive present perfect tense, use:
'have' / 'has' + the past participle Make the past participle by adding 'ed' to regular verbs (for example, 'play' becomes 'played') There are a few verbs that change their spelling when you add 'ed' (for example, 'study' becomes 'studied') We also have some completely irregular verbs
(Also, here's some help if you are not sure how to pronounce '-ed' at the end of a verb).
Positive Positive Short Form
I have played I've played
you have worked you've worked
he has written he's written
she has walked she's walked
it has rained it's rained
we have travelled we've travelled
they have studied they've studied
The negative is really simple too. Just put 'not' after 'have' or 'has':
Negative Negative Short Form
I have not eaten breakfast today I haven't eaten
you have not been to Asia you haven't been
he has not seen the new film he hasn't seen
she has not played tennis she hasn't played
it has not snowed this winter it hasn't snowed
we have not slept all night we haven't slept
they have not tried the food they haven't tried
To make a question, put 'have' or 'has' in front of the subject:
'Yes / No' Questions
have I missed the bus?
have you visited London?
has he worked as a waiter before?
has she met John?
has it been cold this week?
have we arrived too early?
have they studied English grammar before?
As you can imagine, for 'wh' questions, we just put the question word before 'have' or 'has':
'Wh' Questions
where have I left my umbrella?
what have you done today?
why has he gone already?
where has she been in the UK?
why has it rained so much this summer?
what have we done?
where have they learned English before?

The Zero Conditional
We can make a zero conditional sentence with two present simple verbs (one in the 'if clause' and one in the 'main clause'):
If + present simple, .... present simple.
Here are some more examples:
If people eat too much, they get fat. If you touch a fire, you get burned. People die if they don't eat. You get water if you mix hydrogen and oxygen. Snakes bite if they are scared If babies are hungry, they cry
Zero Conditional Form
Make the zero conditional
1) If children (not/eat) well, they (not/be) healthy.
2) If you (mix) water and electricity, you (get) a shock.
3) If people (eat) too many sweets, they (get) fat.
4) If you (smoke) , you (get) yellow fingers.
5) If children (play) outside, they (not/get) overweight.
6) If you (heat) ice, it (melt)
7) The river …………..(freeze) if it……………….. (be) very cold.
The Answer
1) If children do not eat
(not/eat) well, they are not
(not/be) healthy.
2) If you mix
(mix) water and electricity, you get
(get) a shock.
3) If people eat

(get) fat.
4) If you smoke

(get) yellow fingers.

(not/get) verweight.
6) If you heat
(heat) ice, it melts
(melt).
7) The river freezes

(be) very cold.
The First Conditional
The first conditional has the present simple after 'if', then the future simple in the other clause:
if + present simple, ... will + infinitive
It's used to talk about things which might happen in the future. Of course, we can't know what will happen in the future, but this
describes possible things, which could easily come true.
If it rains, I won't go to the park. If I study today, I'll go to the party tonight. If I have enough money, I'll buy some new shoes. She'll be late if the train is delayed. She'll miss the bus if she doesn't leave soon. If I see her, I'll tell her. Exercise 1- If you ……(get) back late, I ……..(be) angry. 2- If I ……….(not/go) to bed early, I …………(be) tired tomorrow. 3- If I ……… (not/go) to bed early, I ………..(be) tired - If you … get …(get) back late, I …will be …..(be) angry.
2- If I …don’t go …….(not/go) to bed early, I …will be ………(be) tired tomorrow. 3- If I don't go (not/go) to bed early, I will be(be) tired
The Second Conditional
The second conditional uses the past simple after if, then 'would' and the infinitive:
if + past simple, ...would + infinitive
(We can use 'were' instead of 'was' with 'I' and 'he/she/it'. This is mostly done in formal writing).
It has two uses.
First, we can use it to talk about things in the future that are probably not going to be true. Maybe I'm imagining some dream for
example.
If I won the lottery, I would buy a big house.(I probably won't win the lottery) If I met the Queen of England, I would say hello. She would travel all over the world if she were rich. She would pass the exam if she ever studied.(She never studies, so this won't happen)
Second, we can use it to talk about something in the present which is impossible, because it's not true. Is that clear? Have a look
at the examples:
If I had his number, I would call him. (I don't have his number now, so it's impossible for me to call him). If I were you, I wouldn't go out with that man.
Exercise

4-) She (be) happier if she (have) more friends.
