Introduction
• This PowerPoint tells you the use of English
including tenses, gerunds and other
grammar skills. It also got a proofreading
exercise for all of you to try, so come on
and try this PowerPoint out!!
The Present Tense
The Simple Present Tense :
It is used to show a habitual action or
facts or universal truths.
The following page are some examples to
show how the simple present tense is used:
Examples
Habitual action
Example 1: John seldom does his homework
correctly.
Example 2: I usually have breakfast at 7:00am.
Facts or universal truths
Example 1: The earth moves round the sun.
Example 2: English is my favourite subject.
Remarks
• The bare infinitive should be used in Simple
Present. If the subject is not I or you, the
subject is at third person. If the subject is
singular (for example, book, it, he, she) and
third person, we have to add ‘s’ or ‘es’ of that
verb. For example,
Example 1: He does homework everyday.
Example 2: He practises piano everyday.
The Present Perfect Tense
• Pattern: has/have + past participle
(For example, has done/has gone)
• It is used to show a past action whose time
is not given or not definite. When we use
Present Perfect, we intend more to show the
result of the past action rather than the
action itself. For example,
Examples
Example 1: I have read the instructions but I
do not understand them.
Example 2: I have heard this story twice.
Remarks:
If the time of the past action is definite, we can
never use present perfect tense. Instead, the
simple past tense should be used. Moreover,
present perfect tense is used with before, lately
and recently etc. These words show indefinite
time, for example,
•There have been a lot of changes recently.
The Present Perfect Tense
It is also used to show an action which happened
within a period from a past time to the present time
of speaking. Thus, it is used with since, for, yet and
up to the recent moment, for example,
•Example 1: Peter has been in this company for 6
years.
•Example 2: 20 people have died as a result of food
poisoning so far this year.
Present Continuous Tense
• Pattern: verb-to-be + “-ing” form.
• It is used when an action is happening at the time of
speaking. For example,
Example 1: Look at how well the children are
drawing.
Example 2: I am looking for my lost watch at present.
Present Perfect Continuous tense
• Pattern: has/have + been + “-ing” form
• It is used to show a continuous action which lasted
from the past time to the present time of speaking
and is suppose to go on in the future. For example,
Example 1: I have been waiting for you for 5 hours.
Example 2: Mr. Chua has been living in Hong Kong
for more than 10 years.

The Simple Past Tense
• What is the Simple Past Tense used for?
• How are the structures like?
• Now let us have a look at it…..
The Simple Past Tense
• The Simple Past Tense is used to :
• to show an action or event in the past
• to show past habits.
• The following page are some examples to
show how the simple past tense is used:
Examples
To show an action or event in the past
Example 1: I saw a rabbit yesterday.
Example 2: They went to Macau last Sunday.
Example 3: The plane from Singapore arrived an
hour ago.
Example 4: I met Pauline at the cinema last night.
To show past habits.
Example 1: We liked to swim in the river when we
were young.
Example 2: I used to play with my uncle in his
office.
The Past Perfect Tense
• Pattern: had + past participle
• It is used when there are two actions, one
happens earlier than other. We use Past
Perfect for the first action and Simple Past
for the second. For example,
Example 1: He had done his homework
before he went to play.
Example 2: After they had had dinner,
they returned home.
Past Continuous Tense
• It is used to show that someone was in the
middle of doing something when another
action happened or at a particular past time.
For example,
• Example 1: We were singing in a low voice
when someone suddenly broke
into the room.
• Example 2: She was having lunch at 7
o’clock yesterday
Past Perfect Continuous Tense
• It is used to describe an action began in the
past and continued up to the time of
speaking or just stopped. Moreover, it is
used to emphasize the continuation of an
activity. For example,
Example 1: What had you been playing
when mother phoned you.
Example 2: I had been studying for a long
time so I was feeling hot and
mad.

The Future Tense
• Pattern: will/shall + bare infinitive
• The simple future tense is used to
• To show an action, which will happen later or
sometimes after now. It is usually expressed by
shall (first person, however not commonly used
nowadays) or will (second and third person and are
used more commonly nowadays) plus a bare
infinitive
• To express possible condition
• The following page are some examples to
show how the simple future tense is used:
The Future Tense
Example 1: I will be a Form 5 student.
Example 2: What subjects shall we study?
Example 3: We will have an examination soon.
Example 4: My sister will be eighteen next year.
Example 5: I will not give any suggestions until you
answer my questions.
 (Under the condition that you answer the question).
Example 6: I shall answer your questions if they are
not difficult.
 (Under the condition that the questions are not difficult.)
Future Perfect Tense
• Pattern: by /in + a time expression
( For example: by the end of the year )
• It is used to show an action that will be
completed on or before a specific time in the
future. For example,
• Example 1: By the time the party is over,
the children will have gone to
sleep.
• Example 2: In two years time, I shall have
taken my certificate
Future Continuous Tense
• It is used to show an action which will be
completed on or before a specific time in the
future and will continue from then onwards. For
example,
Example 1: I will have been studying in Hong
Kong Tang King Po College for
five years by the end of this term.
Example 2: Angela will have been living with
Peter in New York a month tomorrow.

Tense, to go back to the

Gerund
• A gerund is a noun, formed by adding “ing” to a
verb and performs the functions as a verbal noun.
Gerunds can be used as a subject, after possessive
adjectives, after prepositions, after certain verbs and
after some common expressions. Below are some
information of the above thing.
1) As a subject, for example:
• Example 1: Smoking is now prohibited in cinemas
• Example 2: Reading is good for you.
2)After possessive adjectives:
• Example 1: Would you mind opening the window?
• Example 2: Your calling on us was welcomed.
Gerund
3) After all prepositions:
Example 1: He insisted on paying the bill.
Example 2: I have given up smoking for a long
time.
Example 3: I am used to reading at night.
Gerund
4) After certain verbs such as the list below:

Example 1: It is no good waiting here.
Example 2: I cannot help crying over the bad news.
Example 3: I feel like going to the beach today.
Gerund
• However, in gerund there are cases where the use of
Gerund and Infinitives have different meanings.
(A) Stop + gerund: stop what one is doing.
(B) Stop + infinitive: make a break in order to do
something else.
Example 1: The driver stopped examining the engine.
(=not to examine anymore)
Example 2: The driver stopped to examine the engine.
(=stopped the car so as to examine)
Gerund
(C) Go on + gerund :continue what one has been doing.

went on the tell us the cost of the trip.
E) Try + gerund : make an experience; do something to
see what will happen.
F) Try + infinitive : make an effort; attempt to do
something difficult.
Example 1: I tried sending her presents but she
did not respond.
Example 2: He tried to open the can but failed.
Gerund
(G) Words such as remember, forget and regret followed by
gerund is to show what one has done or what has
happened.

infinitives if we want to show what one has to more or is
going to do.

Gerund
(I) Verbs such as like, like, prefer, hate followed by a gerund
if we want to express general cases.

Participle
(A) A participle is a verbal adjective which
derives from a verb and performs the
function of an adjective.
Below are the uses of participle:
(I) Participle Clauses can replace adjective
clauses, the next page shows you the
examples,
Participle
Example 1: The train which is arriving at Platform 2 is
the 14:20 train for Lo Wu.
 The train arriving at Platform 2 is the
14:20 train for Lo Wu.
Example 2: There were some students who were taking
Religious Studies in our class.
 There were some students taking
Religious Studies in our class.
Participle
(B) When two actions occur simultaneously, we can use a
participle clause to express one of them. For example,
Example 1: May stood at the bus stop and
waited for a bus.
 May stood at the bus stop waiting for a
bus.
Example 2: The Old Lady sat on the bench and
watched the children play.
 Sitting on the bench, the old lady
watched the children play.
The Old Lady sat on the bench watching
the children play.
Participle
(C)When two actions occur one after another, we can use a
participle clause to express the first action. Thus, it can be
used to replace an adjective clause of time.
Example 1: After he had done [active] his lesson, he
rushed to the playground.
 Having done his lesson, he rushed to
the playground.
Participle
(continue)Example 2: After he had been accused [passive]
of dishonesty, he decided to resign.
 Having been accused of
dishonesty, he decided to resign.
 Being accused of dishonesty, he
decided to resign.
 Accused of dishonesty, he
decided to resign.
Participle
(D) Participle Clauses can replace adverb clauses of reason.
Example 1: As he feared [active], his father would
hit him, he ran away from home.
 Fearing his father would hit him, he
ran away from home.
Example 2: Since she was scolded [passive] by her
mother, she cried bitterly.
 Scolded by her mother, she cried
bitterly.
Having being scolded by her mother,
she cried bitterly.
Participle
(E) Participle Clauses can be placed after conjunctions on
prepositions.
Example 1: On hearing the news, she collapsed.
Example 2: In/While trying to open the can, I
hurt myself.
Example 3: If travelling to Beijing, you must go to
the Great Wall!
Example 4: Once taken, the drug has a deadly
effect.
Participle
(F) It is essential that the subject of a main clause and
participle clause should be the same. A participle clause
can have its own subject which is different from the main
clause.
Example 1: Being a fine day, we went swimming.
Example 2: It being a fine day, we went swimming.
Remarks: For some common expressions of
participle clauses, their subjects need
not be the same as the main clauses.

Conditional sentences
• A conditional sentence is composed of a
conditional clause and a main clause. The
conditional clause expresses the condition and
the main clause expresses the consequence of
that condition.
Conditional sentences
(i) Zero Conditional sentences:
Definition: This pattern is to show a truth.
Pattern: [If clauses] + [Main clause]
(Simple Present tense) (Simple Present tense)
Example: If water is put into the freezer, it turns ice.
[Conditional clause]
[Main clause]
Conditional sentences
(ii) First Conditional sentences (Probable Condition):
Definition: This pattern is used to show a
condition which is likely to occur,
followed by a consequence.
Pattern: [If clauses]
+
[Main clause]
(Simple Present tense)
(Simple future tense)
Example (1): If it rains tomorrow, we shall cancel the picnic.
[Conditional clause]
[Main clause]
Example (2): You will succeed if you work harder.
[Main clause]
[Conditional clause]
Conditional sentences
(iii) Second Conditional sentences (Improbable
Condition)
Definition: This pattern is used to show a
condition which is impression or
unlikely to occur in present or future
time.
Pattern: [If clauses] + [Main clause]
(Simple Past tense) (Would or should + verb)
Example (1): If it rains tomorrow, we would stay at home.
[Conditional clause]
[Main clause]
(We are not sure whether it will rain tomorrow
or not, but probably it will not rain.)
Conditional sentences
(iv) Third Conditional sentences (Imaginary Condition):
Definition: This pattern is used to show a condition
which could not ever occur because it
refers to something which did not
happen in the past.
Pattern: [If clauses] + [Main clause]
(Past perfect tense)
(Would + verb)
Example (1): If I were you, I would not go with him.
[Conditional clause]
[Main clause]
(I am not you – impossible condition.)
Remarks: ‘were’ instead of ‘was’ is usually
used for all persons to show the case
is less probable.
Conditional sentences
(v) Fourth Conditional sentences (Impossible Condition):
Definition: This pattern is used to show some
impossible things.
Pattern: [If clauses]
+
[Main clause]
(Past perfect tense)
(Would or should + Present Perfect tense)
Example (1):If it had rain yesterday, I would have stayed at home.
[Conditional clause]
[Main clause]
(However it did not rain yesterday.)
Example (2): If it had known of your arrival, I would have met you.
[Conditional clause]
[Main clause]
(However I did not know of your arrival.)
Conditional Sentences
(vi) Reconstruction:
Conditional sentences can begin with ‘Had’or
‘Were’.
Example (1): Had he seen you, he would have
helped you.
(= If he had seen you, he would
have helped you.)
Example (2): Were he here now, we would play
Mahjong.
(= If he were here now, we would
play Mahjong)
Conditional Sentences
Other conditional words can be used instead of
using if. Suppose, unless, even if, even though,
but for, provided that, as long as, on condition
that, should can also be used as ‘if’.

Transitive verbs, Prepositional
Verbs and Phrasal Verbs
Difference between Transitive and Intransitive verbs:

accompany
await
chase
comprise
concern
demand
desire
dread
enter
exceed
explain
fear
hate
investigate
kick
kill
like
need
pity
punish
regret
resemble
stress
suspect
Transitive verbs, Prepositional
Verbs and Phrasal Verbs
Prepositions are often mistaken and placed after transitive
verbs.

Example 2: We have tried to contact you.
Example 3: We have tried to make contact with you.
Example 4: We doubted about what he said.
Example 5:We doubted what he said.
Example 6:We had doubts about what he said.
Transitive verbs, Prepositional
Verbs and Phrasal Verbs
Prepositional Verbs :
A) Some verbs combine with particular prepositions
which rake objects to complete their meaning. It is
important for us to remember which prepositions go
with certain verbs.
B)Some intransitive verbs can become transitive by
adding particular prepositions after them.
C)A verb can combine with different prepositions to
have different usage and meaning. It is important
for you to remember the usage and meaning of
various combinations.
Transitive verbs, Prepositional
Verbs and Phrasal Verbs
(continue) (D)Sometimes, a noun/pronoun/noun phrase may
go in between the verb and the preposition.
Example 1: I would like apply this post.
Example 2: I would like to apply for this post.
Example 3: The committee objected the
proposal.
Example 4: The committee rejected the proposal.
Example 5: Her mother died.
Example 6: The girl smiled at me.
Transitive verbs, Prepositional
Verbs and Phrasal Verbs
Example 7: I must apologize for my rude behavior.
(=apologize to somebody)
I must apologize to her.
(=apologize to somebody)
Example 8: He shouted at the boy.
(=shout aggressively)
She shouted to the boy.
(= shout in order to call somebody.)
Example 9: He prevented me from entering his room.
Example 10: Let me explain my proposal to you.
Transitive verbs, Prepositional
Verbs and Phrasal Verbs
• Phrasal Verbs
• A Phrasal Verb is a verb which combines with a
preposition or an adverb particle to form special
meanings. The sane verb can combine with different
prepositions or adverbs forming different meanings.
Phrasal Verbs can be either transitive or intransitive.
i)Sometimes, a Phrasal Verb can be separated with
an object in between.
ii)However, if the object is a pronoun, it must not be
placed after the preposition/adverb particle.
• Some transitive verbs can also combine with
prepositions or adverbs to form Phrasal Verbs.
Transitive verbs, Prepositional
Verbs and Phrasal Verbs
Example 1: Look out! The car is coming.
Example 2: Please look after the baby.
Example 3: We have decided to put off the party.
Example 4: We have decided to put the party off.
Example 5: He suffered from flu yesterday.

Conclusion
This is just a simple introduction to the usage of
English. It just introduces some basic
grammatical concepts (e.g. tenses, conditional
sentence, etc.), some vocabulary stuffs, some
skills on doing exercises such as proof-reading
and things like that. If you are going to improve
your standard, you can do more exercises, read
more books, write more in English, talk to
foreigners. In fact, this is the only way to improve
your English standard.
Conclusion
There is no real shortcuts and no endings in
learning english. So, do more and write more and
remember “PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT”!!

This project makes me very very tiring. This
PowerPoint has nearly a 100 pages and
unfortunately, we have nearly given this
project more than 4 days in working
(including not sleeping) while preparing,
typing, previewing and so on. In my
opinion, this project makes me gain more
ideas on the use of PowerPoint and I also
learn the fast speed of typing including
using Chinese and English.
Feeling of Conrad
This project, however got one little problem.
It has too little time on doing the project.
One month, although could be a lot of time,
however, as the test is coming and as we are
Form 4, we got a lot of things to do
including the homework load of everyday
and things like that. Anyway, to conclude, I
hope that Ms. Yuen and Mr. Chua will get to
know more in this PowerPoint and may God
Bless them all!!
Feeling of Herman
In this project, I can learn more skills about PowerPoint and
the Grammatical Concepts of English to handle various kinds of
questions, such as proof-reading, etc. However, I think that the
time given should be longer because we have to do many other
things apart from this project. You may say a month is already
long enough, but for me, a person who do not have computer at
home, is quite a difficult job.
Feeling of Herman
I think the teacher should give me an extra month more to
complete the project.
I think doing project is useless now. We do not have so much
time to do a project. On the other hand, we should prepare
ourselves to prepare well for the HKCEE instead of doing other
things which is not related to the HKCEE. I do think that the
teachers should know how important the HKCEE is and I hope that
this is the last project for my form 4 and form5 academic year,
right???
