Good morning from Los Angeles! 🙋"My happiness is not only writing a novel but also reading a poem."
hello im curious and i want to ask you.. is it right after word 'be' must to put ed at the end of verb?
If you put a verb after "be," then it must be in the past participle form (which is -ed for regular verbs):- The criminal will be EXECUTED. - That character is going to be KILLED off, isn't he? - The essay will be FINISHED next week. - Will she be TAKEN to the hospital? ("Take" is an irregular verb; its past participle is not "taked" but "taken.")All of the the above examples are in the passive voice, which is basically [a form of "be"] + past participle.
We use "win-win" for a situation that benefits both parties or has two distinct benefits:- If you study with me, we'll be able to help each other—and we'll both do well. It's a win-win. (Benefits both parties.) - If you study hard, you'll become smarter and get better scores. It's a win-win. (Has two distinct benefits.)
I would like to congratulate you for being chosen to take part in that competition.

"The past is in the past" or "The pas was in the past"? Why?
It depends on what you mean. "Is" is present tense; "was" is past tense. Think of it this way: "He is sick" (he is still sick) vs. "He was sick" (he used to be sick, but he's not sick now)."The past is in the past" = The past is still in the past; it doesn't matter what happened in the past. "The past was in the past" = The past used to be in the past, but not now; what happened in the past now matters.

A phrasal verb is a verb plus a preposition or adverb which creates a meaning different from the original verb. They are similar to idioms.For example, "Run away" could mean to flee, but it could also mean to leave home (to flee from parents, siblings, abuse, etc.). Here is a list of many common phrasal verbs: http://bit.ly/1uGMuP9You are not required to use phrasal verbs in your sentences.
