Answers & Comments
Grandma visited us last weekend. (Past Simple is more appropriate here because it refers to a specific past time, last weekend).
Look! Tomek has broken his arm. (Present Perfect is more appropriate here because it connects the past action (breaking his arm) with the present moment (looking at him with a broken arm)).
Sorry, sir. I forgot my homework. (Past Simple is more appropriate here because it refers to a specific past time, when the speaker forgot their homework).
Mrs Ziarko has worked at this school for 5 years. (Present Perfect is more appropriate here because it connects a past action (starting work at the school) with the present moment (the speaker is talking about the current state of things)).
Uncle Tim has been in the hospital since Friday. (Present Perfect is more appropriate here because it connects the past action (going to the hospital) with the present moment (still being in the hospital)).
Have you ever read a book in English? (Present Perfect is more appropriate here because the speaker is asking about an experience that may have happened at any point up to now).
They have never lived in a big city. (Present Perfect is more appropriate here because it refers to an action that started in the past and continues up to the present moment).
We haven't cleaned our room. It's really messy. (Present Perfect is more appropriate here because it connects the past action (not cleaning the room) with the present moment (the room being messy)).
Ola wrote a Maths test last week. (Past Simple is more appropriate here because it refers to a specific past time, when Ola wrote the test).
