Conclusion:
Quand on parle d’un événement précis du passé on utilise le prétérit,
quand on parle d’un bilan on utilise le present perfect
Le prétérit est différent de Have+-en.
Attention à la traduction des phrases du français à l’anglais!
Le passé composé ne se traduit pas toujours par have -en:
N’avez vous jamais rencontré des aliens? Have you ever seen an Alien?
A réviser pour la rentrée.

Correction test
Texte écrit par une élève de la classe en interrogation écrite. J’ai mis en orange ce qui était dans la leçon du cahier ou du livre
People who are bullied are people who are smaller, uglier, shier
(than the others). They are bullied because they are alone. The girl
in the book says it hurts.
As to me , they should work in class, they should speak to a good teacher
or they should write a note.
I know it hurts them a lot because they do not want to go to school any
more, they are depressed, they are scared and even (même) scared to death,
they are angry
People who are bullied, are bullied by a person who is worse, stronger,
taller and who makes him or her do things they do not want to do,
like stealing or cheating.
As to me bullying must be stopped
Il suffisait donc d’apprendre sa leçon du cahier et du livre pour bien réussir cet exercice.
Traduction:
Stealing something and asking for money is more significant
than hiding a copybook or book.
My friend is bullied / a victim, she feels depressed and worthless.
