The party is tomorrow and I'm a bit nervous! Here's what I've done so far. I've already cleaned the living room and I've bought the drinks. I've just ordered the cake – the shop will bring it tomorrow morning. I haven't made the sandwiches yet because I want them to be fresh. I'll make them tomorrow.

Have you sent the invitation to Mr and Mrs Okafor yet? They're our new neighbours, and I don't think they've ever been to a party in our building. Oh, and Felipe has never tried Brazilian food, so I want to cook my mum's recipe for him!

See you tonight,

Notes for teachers

Use this test after teaching the present perfect with ever, never, just, already and yet, or as a review. It focuses on typical A2 errors: has/have agreement, irregular past participles (went/gone, swam/swum, put), double negatives, and the wrong position of yet and just. For follow-up, ask students to write their own 'Have you ever...?' questions and interview a partner, or to write a to-do list using already, just and yet.
