I: Tom, how did you take part in the conference?

Tom: All the conference participants won a quiz competition on the website of the International Explorers’ Club a month ago. There were students from all over the world.

I: Sounds great! What did you do at the conference?

Tom: We had a great time at the conference: we not only discussed different travellers’ stories and exchanged our experiences, we also visited several famous places of interest. And even spent a night in an ancient castle.

I: Have you been to London before?

Tom: No, it was my first time. And the trip was thrilling!

I: What did you enjoy best?

Tom: At the end of the conference all the participants celebrated a holiday — the Day of the Explorer. It was amazing! My friends have already shared photos from this event. You can find them on our school website.

Перевод: Студенты участвовали в конференции в Лондоне. Они выиграли конкурс месяц назад, поэтому здесь употребляется Past Simple. Вопросы о конкретных действиях на конференции также требуют Past Simple. Вопрос о прежнем опыте и результат, актуальный сейчас, требуют Present Perfect.
