1B. (TEXTS) USING PRONOUNS AND DETERMINANTS

I like to write novels for my students. They read them with enthusiasm. Mary is a good writer too. She likes to read poems. She sent me a poem about the flowers of her garden. She said: These novels are yours but these poems are mine. Every student should do his/her own tasks. So he

himself will learn a lot or she herself will have success. When a girl found a small calculator she started asking was it lost by you, or by her, or by us, or by them Somebody, a boy replied that it must be his, or hers, or yours, or ours or theirs. The homeworks were well written by the students but the teacher began to doubt about it so he questioned every one with these words: -Did you do it yourself? -Yes, I did it myself. Did Peter do it himself -No he didnt do it himself, somebody did it for him. Did Lucy did it herself? Yes, she did it by herself, even her mother helped her a little. Did you know that everybody here has a motorcycle but nobody has a bus. Somebody said that it was possible to get something for the lunch but no one had a single dollar. Anthony asked if anybody had anything to be sold, but there was nothing. Mary asked: -Did you see anybody at the restaurant? -No, I didnt see anybody there, answered John. I saw somebody near the door
replied Lou Who is that tall boy over there? -Which one, the one whose shirt is blue? Yes, please tell him to come here. Excuse me whom did you say to come here? Do you see the man with a blue shirt that is holding a vase? That one is the one I need to talk too, please ask him to come here.

2B. THERE BE (TEXTS) USING THE EXPRESSION THERE + BE

There is a house near the hospital, but there isnt any near the Red Cross. There are two small orange trees in the middle of the yard and for that there wasnt the party for new students. There were many people waiting to know where the party was going to be. Somebody said that there has been a storm and therefore everybody should go back home. The police said that there have been two storms lately and because of that the security of the people was first. For that decision there had

been many problems with young people who wished to dance rock and roll. The organizers informed that there will be a party next Saturday because there was going to be the city celebration of hundreds of years. The major also communicated that there were going to be many guests.

4B. (TEXTS) USING GOING TO I am going to travel to Paris next year. I am going to visit my grandmother who lives in that beautiful city. As soon as I get there I know she is going to make a cake for me. She is going to make an apple cake which is my preferred cake. My sisters and parents are not going to remember that I used to ride on horseback on weekends but as they are not going to go to the hippodrome, we will be going anywhere else as a Museum of fine arts. My mother always like to ask Who is going to walk today? or What are you going to buy at the Mall? -Daddy are you going to buy that new Renault Logan at the Car Center? -Yes, will say my Daddy, -But are all of you going to help me choose the color? I dont know what I am going to bring back to Colombia by July. Anyhow we are going to arrive at Paris airport in January and we are going to come back in July or August.

5B (TEXTS) USING PRESENT (simple) What do you do every day and what you dont like to do? was the announcement in a local newspaper. The investigators wanted to know what were the interests and actions of the citizens. And there was a nice prize: A tour on a sea boat around the world. I answered: I drink beer every evening and I dont like to eat pizzas. John said he likes to ride on bicycle in the morning but he doesnt like to have breakfast. Mary answered that she loves sleeping with her cat but that she doesnt wake up late. I know that my cat runs in the yard but doesnt go to the kitchen. We prepare hotdogs in the morning but we dont eat sandwiches. My parents practice jogging in the early morning but they dont get on buses to travel. -What does your mother do in the morning? -She washes dishes in the kitchen and cleans the house but she doesnt like to wash clothes. -What does your father do? -He works in a factory every afternoon but he doesnt like to pack the merchandise. What does the pet do at night? -it sleeps

on a sofa but it doesnt eat anything at night. All the answers of the search were sent in an envelope to the newspaper office and there was an answer thanking them for the collaboration and a week later there was a receipt with a number for the lottery wishing good luck. The number reads 23.453 out of 100.000 participants. 6 PRESENT CONTINUOUS

6B (TEXTS) USING PRESENT (CONTINOUS) The inspector asked the teacher what the students were doing in class. Here are some of the answers she gave him. Right now I am controlling the work they are doing. Lou is painting a tree on piece of paper. He isnt using his notebook for the task. Fanny is drawing a house in her notebook. She isnt coloring it. Pete and Nancy are building up a small project of a mini-city. They arent using clay but wet paper. The fan is flowing high currents of air but it isnt moving to the sides. The inspector very seriously asked again: And what is that boy over there doing now? He isnt doing anything because he is sick. He has a terrible toothache. And what about that girl over here?. Oh she is my daughter, she is keeping my company as long as her teacher comes to class. A little angry said: - and what the hell are those kids doing out of class, are they playing? - Oh Im sorry but they are preparing themselves for the next sport competitions. 7

7B (TEXTS) USING PAST (CONTINOUS) Why were you drinking beer yesterday, Little and unconscientiously boy! Last week we were telling you how dangerous it is to drink at your age. You werent studying for your tests. Your

mother was asking you to be responsible. She wasnt cooking that cake for us because of you. The teachers at school were saying that if the boys and girls werent preparing for their final tests they were going to repeat the semester. We were working hard for giving you a high education but if you dont pay attention you will be flunked. I think I told you and your sisters and brothers to go ahead by working hard. Were you paying attention or werent you paying attention? I think you were sleeping on your dreams of rock and dance. When I was as young as you are I wasnt losing my time, I was working day and night. Please,Little boy grow up, you are sixteen now. Oh, my dear daddy I promise I will be good at the tests. You werent looking at me when I was concentrated on my studies and responsibilities. I was studying both Math and Chemistry. I wasnt being irresponsible I was just having a rest. Youll see my evaluations.

8B (TEXTS) USING SIMPLE PAST TENSE There were lots of tasks for the secretaries to be done before the boss came back from his business trips. As soon as he arrived at the office he called the coordinator and asked her about each employee for his/her work. He said, well tell me what did each person exactly do while I was on my business trip. Boss I controlled the work of each one and wrote in the control book every detail. For example: -Andrew copied all the records and made out a file with the name of pending informations -Katherine typed about 30 letter offering our services and sent them to the different companies. She kept control of it by receipts from the companies. Mark and Lucy cleaned the office and repaired two computers. The other one must be sent to a special technician. The other two secretaries attended all clerks and sold a lot of articles. The employees didnt lose their time and kept on working. They learned from your responsibility and hard work and for that reason we are having success in business

I have eaten too much meat lately. What have you drunk with your foods? I havent drunk anything because I prefer dry things for my stomach. -Did you know that Fanny has fed her cat everyday but it isnt fat, its too skinny? -She has fought with her brothers because they hit it at every moment. So she has felt very uncomfortable at home. She hasnt found a new place for it. Their brothers have forgotten to obey their parents orders of respecting each other. They have received the guidance but nothing has changed. Mary has gone to many homes in search of a new home for her pet. As people have seen that it is thin they have said that they are not interested in keeping the pet. Well, tell her that I might have that little cat and that she can go to my house whenever she wishes to. Now she has found a new shelter for it.

I think they had grown up as kids and not as responsible young men. I also knew that they had spent all the money they had received from their mother. Teachers had taught them to be good guys and do what should be done at the right moment and not to spend time or money in nonsense things. Their grandma had sung a beautiful picture of fruit trees on the wall but a little later they had taken it away and had sold it for a few cents. At last when they had gone to the park and had ragged some banks they were caught by a policewoman who took them to the police station. There they said that they had thought the banks were for waste.

24C. (TEXTS) USING SOME BASIC COMMON IDIOMS OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE (Meanings can change)
The use of phrasal verbs (or idioms) (or two or more word verbs) is above all a very common way of expressing in English. The idioms have different meanins. You can say Please take off your hat or The plane cant take off because of the rain. In the first case it referes to uncover the head and the second one about a plane that cant start its flight. At first it is a little difficult but with at least a couple of hours of practice you will be ready to use them properly. I think you are getting ready for this practice. I advice you not to break down your studies easily. If you give up you wont learn a lot. Dont be afraid of going wrong, nobody is perfect. If you have a list of words or sentences for study you can cross out those you are understanding. Any how its up to you to learn. You got to get along well with your mates. You have to be in time for your practices. Dont say its too hot or its too cold for not doing what you should do. Keep in mind the importance of getting the knowledges in grammar competences. If there are words you dont know you better look for them in a good dictionary. You can make up many things if you have the decision for it. Make up your mind but dont offend any one. Remember that your rights end where those of your neighbor begins. On purpose, you should practice more hours at home by yourself, take part in the role of playing dramas with your classmates and friends. You should take up with every one, that is a good rule of politeness. Point out the significance of knowing a second language. Dont put out the flame of you interest, put on the suit of hard work. What things do you do in a common day? You wake up at five in the morning, then yo get up and go to take a shower. You brush your teeth, and then you get dressed. Go down the stairs to the dining room and have breakfast in a hurry because youre late and have to get on a bus to go to your work. Near your office you get off the bus and walk in a hurry to your office. There you sit down at your desk and jot down the objectives of the day. You call up your secretay and ask her to digit some letters and have them sent by mail as soon as possible. You are working hard the entire morning and by midday you are to come back home for eating and resting. You get home and take off your clothes, watch news on T.V. and go to the dining room for having lunch. Before two in the afternoon you go back to your work to finish the journey. At the office you pick up the correspondence and read it all. Put apart the important ones and throw away the others. By five in the afternoon you have a break and go to the self-service restaurant for having some tea or cold drink. Buy the newspaper and read the profit-making news bulletin. It doesn't matter by if you havent understood yet this practice. Never mind, you will be able to get it. Of course! You have to work hard or you are wrong with your decitions. Dont forget to check in and out your activities in the schedule. You are heading for abetter comprehension of this language. Do you mind if I open up your spirit for working? If you don't care for any of these experiences you wont go ahead. Hold on! Don't hang up the interest of your imagination. If you've got a terrible headache you should have a break and have a pill.
