Let's solve this worksheet step by step. The task is to
complete each sentence with an appropriate adverb of time from the list provided on the ladder.
🔹 Understanding Adverbs of Time:
Adverbs of time tell us
when an action happens. They include words like *yesterday*, *today*, *tomorrow*, *last week*, *yet*, *now*, etc.
We'll choose the best fit for each sentence based on context and grammar.

✔ Here are the completed sentences:
1)
My uncle will come by train → *tomorrow*
- Future event, so "tomorrow" fits perfectly.
2)
Jane hasn't left for the party → *yet*
- "Hasn't left" is present perfect tense; "yet" is used in negative sentences about actions that haven’t happened up to now.
3)
I cleaned the attic → *last week*
- Past action; "last week" is a common past time reference.
4)
Kevin works as a teacher → *now*
- Present simple tense indicates current job; "now" emphasizes the present time.
5)
Matt will be back → *later*
- Future return; "later" is natural for future events not specified exactly.
6)
She pays her car insurance → *yearly*
- This describes frequency. "Yearly" means once a year — typical for insurance payments.
7)
Valerie is going to Chicago → *today*
- Future plan happening today; "today" fits well.
8)
We stayed at a beach resort → *last month*
- Past experience; "last month" matches the past tense.
9)
I have never seen him → *before*
- "Have never seen" + "before" = a common expression meaning “at any time up until now.”
10)
Grace volunteered at the local library → *last week*
- Past action; "last week" is a logical choice (other options like "yesterday" or "today" might also work, but "last week" is more general and fits).
