Latihan Soal Present Perfect vs Simple Past Bahasa Inggris

Latihan Soal Present Perfect vs Simple Past Bahasa Inggris

Dalam penggunaan sehari- hari, kadang kita sulit membedakan penggunaan antara Prresent Perfect Tense dengan Simple Past Tense. Meskipun keduanya sama- sama menyatakan aktifitas yang berhubungan dengan masa lampau, akan tetapi keduanya memiliki penggunaan yang sangatlah berbeda. 

Sebelum mengetahui perbedaan Present Perfect Tense dan Simple Past Tense lebih jauh, akan saya sampaikan sedikit rangkuman mengenai kedua tenses tersebut, kemudian akan disimpulkan perbedaan keduanya ditinjau dari penggunaannya.

Present Perfect Tense
SUBJECT + HAVE/ HAS + V III

a. Penggunaan
Digunakan untuk menyatakan suatu peristiwa/ perbuatan yang telah selesai terjadi atau dilakukan pada masa lampau dengan waktu yang tidak tertentu dan masih ada hubungannya dengan waktu sekarang.
Contoh :

  • Sandy has written an email.
  • Jenita has bought a new bike.
  • They have done the homework.

b. For and Since
Kalimat dalam Present Perfect Tense sering menggunakan kata For atau Since, dalam menunjukkan keterangan waktunya.

For (selama) , menunjukkan arti lamanya jangka waktu hingga kini, karenanya, For selalu diikuti oleh sejumlah jangka waktu tertentu.
Contohnya,

  1. for a week
  2. for three months
  3. for six days
  4. for a long time, dst.

Since (sejak), menunjukkan arti suatu saat tertentu pada waktu lampau hingga sekarang.
Misalnya,

  1. since August
  2. since the last five years
  3. since 1998

Contoh kalimat,

  • I haven't seen you since Saturday.
  • She hasn't seen me for a week
  • I have lived in Semarang since 2001.
  • They have built the monument for two months.

c. Penanda adverb
Dalam Present Perfect sering digunakan adverb berikut ini,

  • so far
  • almost
  • already
  • never
  • until now
  • up to the present
  • just (now)
  • still

Contoh Kalimat,

  1. She has just gone away
  2. The students have finished five chapters so far.
  3. Up to now, the writer hasn't continued the last chapter of his story.
  4. Joko has almost finished the thesis.

Selain penanda adverb diatas, Present Perfect juga sering menggunakan keterangan berikut ini,

  • recently =  baru- baru ini
  • lately = akhir- akhir ini
  • not ... yet = belum

Contoh :

  1. He hasn't finished the work yet.
  2. We have recently watched "Joker" at Cinema XXI.
  3. What has your manager done lately?

Juga, penggunaan Present Perfect sering menggunakan keterangan waktu sebagai berikut,
this -- this week, this morning, this month, this Saturday,
Contoh :

  1. They have gone shopping this week.
  2. She has met her lecturer this morning.

Simple Past Tense
SUBJECT + V II

a. Penggunaan
Menyatakan peristiwa yang sudah selesai dilakukan atau terjadi pada masa lampau dengan waktu tertentu.
Contoh :
  1. She met her uncle two days ago.
  2. I went to Bali last week.
  3. Jim married to Liza last year.

b. Menyatakan kebiasaan yang dilakukan pada masa lampau.
Contoh :
  1. He always brought a pocket dictionary.
  2. Last year it rained frequently in this area.
  3. We usually spoke English
  4. When I was young, we usually chatted under this tree after school.
c. Menyatakan peristiwa yang jelas terjadi pada masa lampau tetapi tidak disebutkan keterangan waktunya
Contoh :
  1. I bought this t-shirt in Bali
  2. When did you see me?
  3. The bus was fifteen minute late.
Adapun keterangan waktu yang biasa dipakai dalam Simple Past adalah, 
  • yesterday = kemarin
  • last .... = yang lalu
  • last week
  • last year
  • ... ago = yang lalu
  • two days ago
  • the other day = dulu
Kesimpulan :
Present Perfect tense digunakan menyatakan suatu peristiwa/ perbuatan yang telah selesai terjadi atau dilakukan pada masa lampau dengan waktu yang tidak tertentu dan masih ada hubungannya dengan waktu sekarang.
Sedangkan Simple Past menyatakan peristiwa yang sudah selesai dilakukan atau terjadi pada masa lampau dengan waktu tertentu tanpa ada hubungannya dengan waktu sekarang.

Contoh perbedaan kalimat,
  • I've never played golf in my life. (Present Perfect). Present perfect selalu berhubungan dengan masa sekarang.
  • I didn't play golf when I was on holiday last summer. (Simple Past). Simple Past menyatakan kejadian hanya pada masa lalu.
