Hello, dear teachers.
Present perfect tense can denote actions continuing up to the present. The actions usually happen repeatedly or regularly from the past up to the present. The actions aren’t permanent.
Are there any differences between British English and American English?
Are the following sentences correct?
Thank you very much for your help.
1) He has jogged every day for one year. He enjoys jogging because it can help him release pressure and keep fit.
2) He has swum twice a week for several years. Swimming helps him keep healthy.
3) She has played golf once a week for months. She likes the sport a lot.
4) She has done well at school so far. Her parents are satisfied with her grades.
5) We have lived here all our life. We won’t move to other places.
