Introduction

The Australian government is now studying hate against Jewish people. This happened after a bad attack in December 2025.

Main Body

Two men attacked people at Bondi Beach in December 2025. Fifteen people died. Police say the men liked a dangerous group. Many Jewish people say they feel unsafe now. They say hate crimes increased from 500 to 2,000 in one year. People told a judge about their problems. Some people heard bad words in the street. Others saw fires. Some people want to leave Australia because they are scared. The government wants new laws for guns. They want to buy guns back from people. The Mayor of Sydney also stopped a big public meeting to keep people safe.

Conclusion

The study continues. The government will write a final report in December 2026.

πŸ•’ Time Travel: Past vs. Future

Look at how the story changes time. To reach A2, you must know how to talk about things that already happened and things that will happen.

1. The Past (Yesterday/Last Year) We use special word endings or changes to show the past.

  • Happen β†’\rightarrow Happened
  • Attack β†’\rightarrow Attacked
  • Increase β†’\rightarrow Increased
  • Say β†’\rightarrow Said (This one changes completely!)

2. The Future (Next Year) We use one simple helper word: WILL.

  • The government β†’\rightarrow will write a report.

πŸ’‘ Quick Tip for A2: If you see a date like December 2025 (Past), use -ed. If you see a date like December 2026 (Future), use will.
