Question

Read the comic strip below. In the first square of the comic strip the sentence is in the past continuous, how do you write the same sentence in the Simple Past?

Answer 1

Para colocar no Simple Past só precisamos colocar o verbo principal no passado. No caso, o verbo principal é "look", e sua forma no passado é "looked". Portanto, a frase fica da seguinte forma:

"Today I looked for a sharp pencil"
