Hi Valentine and thanks for your participation
n°4 :wrong : be careful : when I was ..... n°8: you have to choose between simple past and present perfect !The others are correct !
So, I'm waiting for n°4 and n°8
ps: in this forum (English only) French isn't allowed

No Moritena, it's the same mistake as Valentine : read the sentence again : when you were a child: the period is finished, so .....

Yesssssssss, that's it !
And what about the n° 8 ?

I lived here ever since.
It's a pity I can't translate into french ! But I can say that we use the preterit with "ever since" to express a specific event.
But this sentence should have an independant proposition. For example :
"I lived here ever since, and I've enjoyed myself a lot."
" Ever since I married him, I've been very unhappy." (
).Just another way to say this : " Since the day I married him, I've been very unhappy".
Is it what you were expecting, joy ?

I understand very well what you mean, Serena, but for this sentence we need a present perfect.
Why ? Because there is a connection with the present. (now, she always lives there !
I'll let you put the good answer

Minouche, you made 3 mistakes :
n° 2: see the sentence of Valentina : that's the right answer
n° 4: see the sentence of Traviskidd : that's correct too
n° 8: That's the correct answer:
8. I have lived here ever since.
(from before up to now) ==> present perfect.
