Examples:
Completed Action in the Past
Use the Simple Past to express the idea that an action started and finished at a specific time in the past. Sometimes, the speaker may not actually mention the specific time, but they do have one specific time in mind.
Example:
Last year, I traveled to Japan
A Series of Completed Actions
We use the Simple Past to list a series of completed actions in the past. These actions happen 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and so on.
Example:
I finished work, walked to the beach, and found a nice place to swim.
Duration in Past
The Simple Past can be used with a duration which starts and stops in the past. Duration is a longer action often indicated by expressions such as: for two years, for five minutes, all day, all year, etc.
Example :
A: How long did you wait for them? B: We waited for one hour.
Habits in the Past
The Simple Past can also be used to describe a habit which stopped in the past. It can have the same meaning as "used to." To make it clear that we are talking about a habit, we often add expressions such as: always, often, usually, never, when I was a child, when I was younger, etc.
Example :
When I was young , I studied Politics.
Now
Use the Present Continuous with Normal Verbs to express the idea that something is happening now, at this very moment. It can also be used to show that something is not happening now.
Example:
They are reading their books
Longer Actions in Progress Now
In English, “now" can mean: this second, today, this month, this year, this century, and so on.
Sometimes, we use the Present Continuous to say that we are in the process of doing a longer action which is in progress; however, we might not be doing it at this exact second.
Example:
I am studying to become a doctor.
Near Future
Sometimes, speakers use the Present Continuous to indicate that something will or will not happen in the near future.
Example:
I am meeting some friends in a party tonight.
Repetition and Irritation with "Always"
The Present Continuous with words such as "always" or "constantly" expresses the idea that something irritating or shocking often happens. Notice that the meaning is like Simple Present, but with negative emotion. Remember to put the words "always" or "constantly" between "be" and "verb+ing."
Example:
He is always coming to class late.
Store Dialogue
Shopper: How much is the hat? / How much does it cost?
Owner: It´s five dollars/ it costs five dollars
Shopper: I ´ll take it/ that´s good price / Oh no, that´s too expensive
It costs $ 1500 dollars It costs $ 20.00 dollars It costs $ 50 dollars
It costs $ 100 dollars It costs $ 6.00 dollars It costs $ 30 dollars
It costs $ 5 dollars It costs $ 11.00 dollars It costs $ 20 dollars
