San Francisco Pics

Out and About in San Francisco

I have finally figured out how to embed a slideshow on the blog, so now you don't need to link to another site. Nonetheless, if you like a picture and want to download it, you can go to:

Click on a picture. Under ACTIONS at the top, you can select DOWNLOAD PICTURE.

These pictures were all taken in San Francisco. How many of the places have you been to?
(present perfect: in your whole life)

have been and have gone

In present perfect,have been can mean have gone when a destination (终点, destino, ме́сто назначе́ния, وجهة) comes after it:

 

Have you ever been to Cuba? = Have you ever goneto Cuba?

 

Watch out! You cannot switch BE and GO in other tenses:

Wrong: I was to Canada three times last year.

Right: I wentto Canada three times last year.

Wrong: I am to Cuba twice a year.

Right: I go to Cuba twice a year.
