Okay, so stop the video and read the text. 00:02:07

Okay, let's see. First, we've got football. 00:02:12

Argentina were playing England in the quarterfinals of the 1986 World Cup in Mexico. 00:02:16

In the 52nd minute, the Argentinian captain Diego Maradona scored a goal. 00:02:24

The English players protested, but the referee gave the goal. 00:02:31

goal. However, TV cameras showed that Maradona had scored the goal with his hand. Maradona said 00:02:36

the next day, it was partly the hand of Maradona and partly the hand of God. Later in the game, 00:02:45

Maradona scored another goal and Argentina won 2-1. They went on to win the World Cup. 00:02:53

athletics fred lortz from new york won the marathon at the st louis olympic games in nineteen o four he finished the race in three hours thirteen minutes 00:03:01

after the race fred was waiting to get his medal and the spectators were cheering him loudly alice roosevelt the daughter of the u s president was in the crowd and some journalists took a photo of fred with her 00:03:19

but then suddenly somebody started shouting cheat and soon everybody was shouting the same thing it was true fred had traveled eighteen of the forty-two kilometers in a friend's car 00:03:37

Fred didn't win the gold medal, and he was banned from athletics. 00:03:54

And then you have fencing. 00:04:01

Boris Onishenko, an army officer from the Soviet Union, 00:04:04

was competing against Jim Fox from Britain in the 1976 Montreal Olympics. 00:04:09

Boris was winning, and the electronic scoreboard was showing hit after hit for him. 00:04:18

Jim Fox protested to the referee. Fox said that Boris was scoring points without hitting him. 00:04:23

Olympic officials examined Boris' sword and they made a shocking discovery. 00:04:33

Boris had changed the electronic part of his sword. 00:04:41

He could turn on the hit light on the scoreboard even when he hadn't hit Fox. 00:04:47

Fox is the guy. 00:04:59

Boris went home in disgrace the next day. 00:05:00

The British newspapers called him Dishunoshenko. 00:05:04

Okay. 00:05:09

Now, first, let me draw your attention to what we've been doing last week, 00:05:09

working on how to pronounce the past of the regular tenses, okay? 00:05:18

so you have protested scored you also have for example let me check finished 00:05:27

you have started and you have I think I've seen showed change it okay so 00:05:47

So, remember, D when the past participle finished in a voiced consonant, like scored, showed. 00:06:03

Well, showed is here. 00:06:17

Showed. 00:06:18

T when it finishes in a voiceless consonant. 00:06:21

Finished. 00:06:27

Finished. 00:06:29

and ed when it finishes in T or D started okay so if you look at the highlighted verbs we're 00:06:30

using the past tenses we're playing protested and had scored so which of these three sentences we 00:06:44

use for completed actions in the past okay for completed actions in the past 00:06:57

we use the past simple protested started for actions in progress at a particular 00:07:06

moment in the past we use the past continues we're playing we're cheering 00:07:18

and an action that happened before the pastime that we are talking about that 00:07:29

is the very first action that happened Maradona had scored okay you have more 00:07:37

hadn't hit Fox Fred had traveled okay so we are using the past tenses to tell a 00:07:47

a story in the past okay so now I want you to look at this part of the text 00:08:02

this I'm going to stop the video and you're going to tell the story using the 00:08:12

correct tenses okay the text one about England and Argentina text two and text 00:08:22

three okay all right i'm going to stop right you should have come with something like in text one 00:08:32

england were playing argentina and maradona scored a goal the english players protested but the 00:08:43

referee gave the goal TV cameras showed that Maradona had scored the goal with 00:08:53

his hand that is England were playing Maradona scored English playing players 00:09:04

protested all those in the past simple sorry scored protested and gave England 00:09:11

were playing, okay? And TV cameras showed that Maradona had scored because the action of scoring 00:09:22

the goal was before everything else happened. The second, you should have something like 00:09:30

Fred Lord won the marathon in 1904. He was waiting to get his medal and the spectators 00:09:38

were cheering. Everybody started shouting, cheat! Fred had travelled 18 kilometres by 00:09:49

car. And finally Boris Onishchenko was competing against Jane Fox. Boris won but Jane Fox protested. 00:10:04

The Olympic officials examined Boris' sword and they discovered that he had changed the 00:10:21

electronic part of his sword. 00:10:32

OK? 00:10:35
