    bonjour nhiao,

    Conjuguez bien le verbe
    1/ They moved from asia 100 of years ago: CORRECT.
    They arrived 200 years ago: CORRECT
    He ....(to set foot) on this continent 200 years ago: Tu n'as rien mis!
    They started to bring their story and culture to public attention 50 yars ago: CORRECT
    AGO s'utilise avec le prétérit simple car il sert à dater une action passé et terminée.

    2/ For ou Since ?
    -they have lived here since Prehistoric Times: CORRECT
    -Australia has been inhabited by aborigines for 100 of years: CORRECT
    -white men have persecuted aborigines for many years: CORRECT
    -white men have persecuted aborigines since the arrival of the white man: CORRECT

    -they have been Australians for 2 centuries: CORRECT
    -..............living in australia ...1968 !( là je ne sais pas)
    -..............claiming their rights ...1780
    -..............regarded as animal for more than 20 years: CORRECT
    -..............ennemies for colonisation: FAUX
    -..............living in the bush since their landing: CORRECT
    -.............persecuted for Hames arrived in Australia: FAUX

    - FOR s'emploie devant un complément de durée plus ou moins précis: Ex: (2)months, (3) days, hours, years.
    - SINCE marque le point de départ de l'action, donc devant un moment précis, une date précise, 1 mois, 1 jour ou 1 année précises.
