Answer (1)
To categorize the expressions into FUTURE and PAST, we need to understand the time reference each expression indicates.
FUTURE expressions refer to events that have not yet happened, while PAST expressions refer to events that have already occurred.

FUTURE:
Next week
Next year
Next month
Tomorrow
PAST:
Last week
Yesterday
Last Sunday
