To solve the problem of identifying the past phrases from the given list, we need to review each of the terms provided and determine if they refer to times in the past.
Let's analyze each one:
1. Today - This refers to the current day, not the past.
2. Soon - This refers to a time in the near future, not the past.
3. Yesterday - This refers to the day before today, a time in the past.
4. Tomorrow - This refers to the day after today, which is the future, not the past.
5. Last week - This refers to the week prior to the current one, which is a time in the past.
6. Last month - This refers to the month prior to the current one, which is a time in the past.
7. Wednesday - This could refer to the next or previous Wednesday, but without additional context, we cannot classify it strictly as a past term.
8. Few days ago - This phrase means a few days before today, indicating a past time.
To recap, the terms that refer to the past are:
- Yesterday
- Last week
- Last month
- Few days ago
So, the circled past phrases should be:
- Yesterday
- Last week
- Last month
- Few days ago
We can logically conclude that these are the correct answers:
['Yesterday', 'Last week', 'Last month', 'Few days ago']
