      Oh wow, this is a little different from what we normally teach. We tend to prepare students using grammar, vocabulary and other lessons!! Sorry, i don't think we'll be able to help with this :(

    What is the difference:
    "They have been running for 5 hours"
    "They ran for 5 hours"

      They have been running implies that it isn’t finished. They ran = finished.

      It seems like the opposite, past simple implies it's finished when PPC doesn't imply anything. Otherwise how can you use PPC for recently completed actions?

      @@evolve8733 I get your confusion.
      1. They ran for 5 hours = finished (no present result or evidence)
      2. They’ve been running for 5 hours. = unfinished (focus on activity and answering the question “how long?”)
      3. They’ve been running. = recently finished (we can see the result of the finished action. ie. They are sweating, still wearing their running clothes, shoes, etc.)
