Hello Everybody! =D
Ich habe hier einen Text,. in dem ich die verben in die richtigen Zeiten einsetzen soll.
dise hab ich unterstrichen.
("Put the verbs into the correct past tense. Most are simple past, but some are past progressive, past perfect or past perfect progressive.")
It is sometimes said that Christopher Columbus 'discovered' America. Actually Columbus's feet never had been touching the continent of North America. Columbus sailed across the Atlantic in 1492 and landed on the island of San Salvador. He hadn't beeing the first person to visit the island because people already had lived there when he arrived. In fact, the lived there for thousands of years. Columbus wasn't even the first European in the 'New World' because the Vikings already sailed to North America many years before. And it is possible that Africans made the journey long before that. Columbus made four trips across the Atlantic. One of the main reasons for his travels was that he looked for gold. When he was finding it on Haiti, he had forced the 'Indians' to mine the gold. His treatment of them was cruel. Before Columbus, there was several million native people on Haiti. By 1520 the number fell to a few thousands, thanks mainly the European diseases.
Bitte um Korrektur!
