the simple past
The decade that made a differenceMany people who grew up during the 1960s think it was very special time. Before the 1960s most Americans used to believe that the American way was the best. People respected the law, trusted their leaders, and did not use to question American values. All that changed in the 1960s.The 1960s was the decade that made a difference. John F. Kennedy became president; Martin Luther King, Jr., led the Civil Rights movement; and women’s groups fought for equal rights. It was an exciting time to be young: the Beatles wrote their songs, and many young Americans flocked to the famous three-day Woodstock music festival. But the 1960s was also the time of the Vietnam War. Many young people were very angry with the government. They protested against the war because they did not want to fight.The youth rebellion of the 1960s went beyond politics. It questioned many of the values of American society. This was the time of the “hippies”. The hippies were young people who had long hair, wore strange, colorful clothes, and believed in peace. They were not interested in money, and they did no agree with many of their parents’ ideas about life.Many things changed in the 1960s. Some of them, such as hairstyles and clothing, were not very important. Others, such as laws bout the rights of African Americans and the relationship between men and women, were very significant. And there is certainly no doubt about on thing: when the 1960s ended, the United States was different, and the world was, too.The simple pastInformation questions:Wh-word + did + subject +base form of verbsFor example:Who did you see yesterday?
