Yesterday was a busy day for me.In the morning I didn't watch TV and I didn't listen to music.I helped my mum and dad with the housework.I tidied my room and I cleaned the bathroom.Then it was time to go shopping!We wanted to take the bus to the shops,but the bus didn't stop for us. So we walked all the way to the shops!We shopped for two hours.On the way home,I carried a heavy shopping bag.We didn't walk back home.This time we didn't miss the bus!We arrived back home at four o'clock.I was very tired.What a day!
1 The children are back at school now. They've been on holiday for the summer.
2 'Have you ever been to Niagara Falls?' 'No, but I've been to the Great lakes.'
3 Bill worked very hard today. He's gone to bed early.
4 I've got a lot of money. I've been to the bank today.
5 'His car isn't in the garage. I think he's gone away for the day.'
2. I'm exhausted. I have been working all day, and I have not finished yet. I visited many countries in the last five years. Someone has taken my books. I have been looking for them for ages, but I can't find them anywhere. I have been shopping all morning, but I have not bought anything yet. I haven't seen anything I've liked. The best book I have ever read is One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel Marquez. A You're filthy! What have you been doing? B I have been working in the garden. I have planted all the vegetables for next year. I have been waiting for two hours, but nobody has arrived yet.
