This book is an updated and expanded version of 'Tiempo para practicar los pasados' by the same author.
The new edition contains one extra chapter compared to the previous version, namely TEMA 3.
The book consists of six topics. Each topic covers the form and use of a past tense in Spanish (such as pretérito perfecto compuesto, pretérito perfecto simple, pretérito imperfecto, and other past tenses), with the exception of topic 3, which compares the two perfect tenses, the simple and the compound, and topic 5, which contrasts the perfect and imperfect.
At the end of the book there is a list of the most common irregular verbs.
All topics except chapters 3 and 5 follow the same internal structure:
Observation
Usage
Exercises
The mysterious story
Retest
In addition, each student can evaluate their progress by checking their correct answers against the total number of questions within each exercise. The answers can be found at www.edelsa.es in the student area.
