1. Arent you about to finish with the dishes? You (wash)

Present Perfect Continuous

В первом задании мы используем Present Perfect Continuous, так как деянье началось в прошлом и длится до истинного момента.

 1. Arent you about to finish with the dishes? You have been washing the dishes for thirty minutes or more. How long can it take you to wash the dishes? 

Также под это верховодило подходит 7-е задание. 

7. Your Italian is very good. Have you been studying it long?

Present Perfect

Во втором задании мы используем Present Perfect, так как прошедшее деяние связано с истинным.

 2. We have gone to the steak house restaurant many times. The food is excellent. 

Также под это правило подходит 5-е и 6-е задание.

5. Whats that dent in the side of the car? Have you had an accident? 6. Im sorry, Johns not here; he has gone to the dentist. He has had trouble with a tooth for some time. 

Past Simple

Past Simple мы используем, когда идёт речь о прошедших событиях, которые в прошедшем и закончились, есть упоминание, когда они проходили в прошлом (yesterday, a year ago, last week и т.д.). Настоящее завершённое время указывает итог деянья: говорящий пренебрегал шведский и не разумеет, что написано в записке.
