Then whose work is it?

Ive just borrowed and exercise book from someone because i want to fix my English/American gap. Figured out that Present Perfect is one of those gaps.

 

[bhaisahab]

Its not my work.

1
A: Have you done
B: finished OK.

2
A: Did you see
B: haven't seen Try again.

3
A: were you
B: went OK.

4
A: did he arrive
B: has been OK.

5

Its not my work.

1
A: Have you done
B: finished

2
A: Did you see
B: haven't seen

2a. is "Have you seen Jack recently."
Some Canadians/Americans might say, "Did you see Jack recently?" In that case, I guess the answer would be "No, I didn't see him for ages." - though don't quote me on this.
1A would also be "Did you do ..." if you are trying to learn this minority Am. dialect.

Note that you can get by quite well in America using the traditional English present perfect in these examples.
