Lesson 1: Present Perfect 

Read the Dialogue 

Read the dialogue between a group of friends preparing a surprise birthday party.

Sarah: OK, guys we need to check what we have already done. Mike, we’ll start with you. Have you picked up the cake yet?

Mike:  Oh, come on Sarah, I’ve just come back from the bakery.

Sarah: OK, OK, how about decorations?

Mike: Houston, we have a problem. Unfortunately, I haven’t bought the balloons yet as the shop assistant told me they were waiting for a delivery that night. I hope to get them in the morning.

Sarah: Fingers crossed then. Bob, is the food ready?

Bob:  Don’t worry, I’ve already started preparing some casseroles and savoury tarts. Tomorrow, I’ll prepare some salads and finger food.

Sarah:  Great! It seems like we have everything under control. Let me check my to-do list. Oh shoot! I forgot about the present! I haven’t ordered it yet! I have to run now! By the way, good job guys!
