EMPLOI Le present perfect est un lien entre le passé et le présent. Il permet de dire, de constater maintenant, au moment où on parle qu'on a fait telle ou telle chose avant, que telle ou telle chose s'est produite, sans donner de date précise. Ce qui est important, c'est d'en parler maintenant. Ex: I've lost my keys! (= ce qui est important, ce n'est pas le moment où j'ai perdu mes clés, mais le fait que je n'ai pas mes clés donc je ne peux pas rentrer chez moi.) Dans cet exercice, l'élève hésite entre le préterit et le présent perfect. En t'aidant du contexte, raye la forme verbale incorrecte. - Did you see // Have you seen Bruce Willis's latest film yet? - Yes, I have. I went // have gone with Jennifer last night. - Did you like // Have you liked it? - Oh yes! I loved it // I've loved it, but Jennifer found // has found it too violent. - I already saw // have already seen hundreds of action films! I think they're fun!
