1) Here is your English Lesson " How do I form the past simple negative? "

Tick the correct sentence in each pair.

We use did not (didn't) + the infinitive of the verb when we form the past simple negative. The main verb stays in the infinitive:
I played tennis every day last week, but I didn't play yesterday. (not didn’t played)
It rained a lot in April, but it didn't rain much in May. (not it didn’t rained)

Irregular verbs also use the infinitive in the negative:
She went to the dentist yesterday morning, so she didn't go to work. 
I didn't have time to go shopping yesterday. (not hadn’t time) 
* We say didn't have (not hadn’t).

I cut my nails every week. I didn't cut them at the weekend, so I cut them today. 
My sister put my books on the chair. She didn't put them on the table.
