Past Simple - Worked examples and exercises
Worked example
Example 1: "Yesterday I _____ (go) to the cinema with my friends."
Answer: Yesterday I went to the cinema. "Go" is an irregular verb: go -> went -> gone. We use Past Simple because "yesterday" is a finished past time.

Answer: She didn't visit her grandparents last weekend. Negative Past Simple: didn't + base verb (not "didn't visited").
