Answer 1

Resposta:

a) Emily and her friend Lisa asked permission to go to the museum.

b) Rita phoned her parents when she travelled

C) The guests complained about the quality of the hotel

d) The parents hugged their son to say goodbye.​

A formação básica do Simple Past é feita com o uso do auxiliar did nas formas negativa e interrogativa (did his parents hug him? his parents did not hug him), e com o acréscimo de –ed, –ied ou –d ao final do verbo principal no infinitivo, sem o to, na forma afirmativa (complained, phoned)

Tem algumas regrinhas sobre isso:

Aos verbos regulares terminados em –e, acrescenta-se somente o –d no final:

to love – loved

to lie – lied

Aos verbos regulares terminados em consoante+vogal+consoante, duplica-se a última consoante e acrescenta-se o –ed:

stop – stopped

control – controlled

hug - hugged

Aos verbos terminados em –y precedido de consoante, retira-se o y e acrescenta-se o –ied:

to study – studied

to worry – worried

Aos verbos terminados em –y precedido de vogal, acrescenta-se somente o –ed:

enjoy – enjoyed

stay – stayed
