12 Standardized Test Tip You may be asked to identify the tense of a verb in a sentence. Remember that a verb that has no ending or ends with -s and has no helping verb is a present tense verb. A verb with -ed is a past tense verb. A verb with the helping verb will is a future tense verb. Present: Whales swim near the boat. Past: They bumped into the side. Future: They will stay away next time. 1/2/2019
