If you don't want to put emphasis on the time, you can also put the adverb of time at the beginning of the sentence.
Note that some time expressions are adverbs of frequency (always, never, usually
usw.). These are usually put before the main verb (except for 'be' as a main verb).
(see also Position of Adverbs)
Tick (V) the correct sentence. Decide where the time expressions are used
correctly.
