Step-by-step explanation

According to this question, you have to use past simple and present perfect form.

The structure of the past simple tense is,

Subject + verb ( past form) + Object

In the same way, the structure of the present perfect tense is,

Subject + have/ has + Verb ( past participle) + Object

Hope this helps you.

Let me know if you have any other questions :-)
