A simple way to teach it
Before the lesson
Hold back pages 3-4 and allow learners 25-35 minutes for the first two pages.
- Explain the response instructions without reviewing the tense contrasts immediately before the attempt.
- Compare the 2022 meeting with residence since 2020 during feedback, asking whether each situation is finished or continuing.
- Use the free-entry item to explore absence of obligation, then test understanding in a different everyday setting.
Support and extension
Choose revision based on consistent evidence across paired items. The intermediate grouping is a convenience for grammar coverage, not an overall CEFR decision.
Suggested approach. Adjust the pace and number of questions to suit your class.
