  • 1. present perfect
    the radio star

    Through a globally famous story, we can see how to use the Present Perfect tense. A homeless man who has livedon the streets of Cleveland, USA for years, has shot to fame, after a clip of his mellifluous radio voice went viral on the internet.

    Ted Williams, was filmed by a local cameraman holding a cardboard sign that read: "I'm an ex-radio announcer who has fallen on hard times". Williams is seen in the video asking for money in exchange for a quick blast of his “God-given voice”. Now that the video has hadmillions of hits on YouTube, Williams, has become an overnight sensation.

    He has spent today appearing on talk shows across America, sporting a new haircut and a smarter appearance than on the clip that made him famous.

    Since his story broke, he has received numerous job offers from big broadcasting names including ESPN, MTV, ABC, CBS and CNN and The Cleveland Cavaliers. Williams has been on the streets for years and has struggled with drug and alcohol addiction for years.

    The story of the "homeless man with the golden pipes”has lifted the spirits of a recession-hit nation in the week that it has returned to work after the Christmas holidays. However, the instant hero has attracted so much attention that reporters have started digging into his background and they have discovered that Williams has struggled with drug and alcohol addiction for years andhas pressed the self-destruct button previously in his life. Asked if the media storm around him may cause him to relapse into addiction, he said, "I'm going to meetings and I have called my sponsor.”

    Accusations have also surfaced that Williams acted as a pimp during his years on the streets. In response, Williams said, "Don't judge a book by its cover - everyone has their own little story. I'm just so thankful. God has blessed me deeply. I'm getting a second chance. Amazing." There are fears though that Williams will not be able to cope with his new status as an instant hero.

    They say that he will be a flash in the pan and his fairytale story is being used by the media to reinforce American Dream propaganda, at a time when America is in serious economic difficulties and the gap between the rich and poor is rapidly increasing.

    2. past perfect
    Elizabeth recognised Luke straight away, even after twenty years, even in a crowded café. He was sitting in the corner, the ghost of the beautiful young man who had broken her heart all those years ago, waiting quietly and looking at a copy of the Yorkshire Post which he had taken from the counter. She knew that’s where he had probably got it from because she did the same herself every Thursday when she came in for lunch with her friend Julie. He was sitting at the same table that she had sat at with him all those years ago. She wondered if he remembered that. She stood still for a moment to give herself a chance to have a good look at him. He had changed, of course, more flesh, less hair and the beginnings of a double chin. That skinny suppleness which she had admired had gone and the shine on the hair which had once been dark brown was no longer there, but she could still see him as he had been in spite of that. She could still feel the same irresistible pull of his charm. She hadn’t expected that. God help her when he put down the newspaper and directed it at her. She gave a quick sigh, braced her shoulders and walked up to the table.
