After completing the exercise above, look at the charts in the section “<strong>Grammar</strong> Presentation” in your<br />
textbook. You will see different examples of sentences using the present perfect and the simple past.<br />
Then read the section “<strong>Grammar</strong> Notes” in which you will learn about the comparison between the<br />
present perfect and the simple past.<br />
Now you can begin to work on the sections “Focused Practice” and “Communication Practice” in your<br />
textbook.<br />
If you have any questions regarding the activities, please contact me.<br />
We are about to finish the contents of the first bimester. Let’s continue.<br />
4.5. Present Perfect Progressive and Present Perfect<br />
Here the focus is on the comparison between the present perfect progressive and the present perfect<br />
tenses.<br />
We will start by reading an article called “African Elephants” in the “<strong>Grammar</strong> in Context” section. Do the<br />
activities “Before you Read” and “After you Read” in your textbook.<br />
How were the activities? I hope you didn’t have any problems.<br />
It is also necessary to answer the following comprehension questions:<br />
Exercise:<br />
How long have elephants been living on this planet?<br />
_______________________________________________________________<br />
Why are they almost extinct?<br />
_______________________________________________________________<br />
What are they killed for?<br />
_______________________________________________________________<br />
What action have governments taken to protect them?<br />

Why is the elephant population still dropping then?<br />

Once you have done the exercise above read the information in the charts of the section “<strong>Grammar</strong><br />
Presentation”. You will see the structure of the present perfect progressive. Additionally, there is a chart<br />
that compares the present perfect progressive and the present perfect. You must also read the “<strong>Grammar</strong><br />
Notes” section in your book for a better explanation.<br />
