It also tells us whether the action is simple, ongoing, finished or has been going on for some time.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In Class 9, grammar is tested through fill-in-the-blanks, error correction (editing) and sentence transformation. Your writing tasks, like letters, articles and stories, also need correct tenses. Teachers who prepare students for school exams, IELTS and TOEFL see the same pattern: students who build a firm base in tenses early find later grammar much easier. Always check the latest CBSE syllabus and sample papers for the exact format.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column
