Global warming - how to express consequences in the present

http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_kcmunazIu1o/S-prbhg_AQI/AAAAAAAAAW0/y984VPnsKqw/s1600/present+perfect.jpgHey,

 

today we first talked about the role of different charities and here is what we said about some of them as a correction for the homework:

 

"to be written by Idir"

 

Then we continued the class with the oral document from last time. We spoke about the reasons for global warming and we made a list again and we particularly focused our attention on the verbs in the document. Here is what we said about grammar (and present perfect):

 

Present Perfect = exprimer un bilan (fait passé ayant des conséquences dans le présent)

Forme: auxiliaire HAVE au présent + p. passé
---> has / have + p. passé (3ème colonne irrégulier ou V-ed régulier)

Examples:

The Earth's climate has fluctuated
Temperature has risen
People have burnt fossil fuels

Compléments de temps qui déclenchent le Present Perfect:

For 2.5 millions years, ...
(ever) Since the industrial revolution began, ...
Since 1966, ...

 

HW: don't forget to begin and review your irregular verbs (cf. bled) + complete exercise #1 p. 115 (cf. Bled)
