Answers
Answer:
Johnny loved playing soccer. And he played very well with his neighborhood friends. He made perfect passes, dribbled with great skill and kicked goals with a precision that caused tremors to the most tenacious goalkeepers.
One day, Johnny was playing with his friends when a coach of a major soccer team saw him and offered him the opportunity to play on his team. After that, Johnny was feeling very enthusiastic. But when he finally played with the team, he found that the other guys on the team were playing much better than him, so it was not so fun after all.
In the resolution of the story, the Simple Present verb tense may show up to tell how the situation of the main characters is nowadays:
Johnny decided that he liked better to play with his neighborhood friends, where he was always the best player. Nowadays, every time a coach comes to offer to be part of his team, he says: "No, thanks, I am good here playing with my friends".
Could you tell, in the previous example, which are simple past tense verbs, which are past progressive and which are simple present?
