Excellent!!!
I worked today (15/04/08)with my students from the 3rd year high school and they really liked doing the quizzes. It’s an easy and catchy way of learning!!!
Hi there, i got a question about the Prepositional Phrase Quiz – 2. Here it is Q: _____ he finishes the projections, we’ll have done the necessary research to complete the project.
I do not ask for the answer but to the statement which says (we’ll have done the necessary research to complete the project.). Isn’t it supposed to be We’d have done instead of we’ll have done ??
Please explain.
Thanks a lot
In this case we are referring to a future time and therefore use the future perfect tense (will have done). ‘We’d have done’ is used in the past conditional form and refers to a past moment in time.
