Before we look back at the last three units:

3. Which story from the last three units do you remember best: superstitions, the cave rescue or Ayrton Senna?

Grammar rule

Grammar from units 7–9

Unit	Grammar	Example
7	subject questions; questions that end with a preposition	Who won the race? (no did) · What are you afraid of?
8	the past perfect: had + past participle	Lina had left her helmet in Dad's car.
9	narrative tenses	It was raining, and Mia was leading. Then her kart slid, and Lina passed her.

In a story, the past continuous sets the scene, the past simple tells the main events, and the past perfect goes back to something earlier.
