если это новость ,present perfect

Ангела 🌙added a comment 6 years ago

странно,что никто не предложил самый частый вариант через give up

⁌ ULY ⁍added a comment 6 years ago

Alex, QUITTED is incorrect. The past tense is QUIT

⁌ ULY ⁍added a comment 6 years ago

Valery, (1) there’s no call for the past perfect here; and (2) kick the habit means to finally quit something after trying many times.

⁌ ULY ⁍added a comment 6 years ago

Tatiana is right - if this is an announcement, then the present perfect. If it’s just a fact, then the simple past: “The boss is in a terrible mood today - she’s quit smoking again.” -or- “Ever since her sister died, Eva has tried to lead a healthy life - she changed her diet, quit smoking and is jogging.”
