Explanation:

The Simple Past Tense is the basic form of the past tense in English. It is used to talk about an action completed at some point in the past. The said action can be in the recent past (e.g. ten minutes ago) or distant past (e.g. ten years ago), and it's not important how long it took to complete (e.g. a second or years).

Some verbs have a regular and some irregular form of the Simple Past Tense.

Regular: inifitive + -ed -> Past Simple Tense (e.g. play - played, cry - cried, love - loved, etc.)

Irregular forms simply have to be learned (e.g. be - was/were, forget - forgot, go - went, etc.)

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
