Hi Trang, you may wish to develop your sentences a little to define 'when' you are talking about. For example I prefer tea to coffee ( a statement of fact, always true) I would prefer a tea, rather than a coffee. (present tense, someone has just asked you what you would like to drink) I used to prefer coffee, but now I only like to drink tea (past events relating to the present situation) Keep up the good work!
