(2) Kindly remember that to pass is a verb: Passed = the past and the past participle: When I take a walk, I always pass (= go by) a library. Yesterday when I took my walk, I passed (= went by) a car accident. Mona is a good student in your class. She always passes (= gets good marks on) the examinations. Many visitors have passed (= entered) through the gates at Disneyland. (3) Remember that past is often a preposition: When I take a walk, I always walk past (= in front of) a library. The bus went past me without stopping. Now I have to wait for another bus!!! 6:30 p.m. = half past (= after) six. Thank you.
