Note
One regular -ed form does double duty: it is the simple past (the package arrived) and the participle that follows have (help has arrived). The verb is normally intransitive, so it forms no everyday passive. It takes a direct object only in an archaic use meaning "reach". The perfect also carries the "success" meaning: someone who has arrived has made a name, not merely reached a place.
