Future Tense
Simple future tense talks about the future, but the decision is made at the time of
speaking. This tense is formed by using will / shall with the simple form of the verb.

The future tense can also be expressed by using am, is, or are with going to expressing
an intention to do something before the time we speak.
The surgeon is going to perform the first bypass in Minnesota.
We can also use the present tense form with an adverb or adverbial phrase to show
future time. Specifically, the present tense is used to describe a future event that’s in a
person’s schedule.
Looking at her calendar, Mary sees what she has to do next week. She says, “I see the
dentist next Tuesday at 3.”
Examples of adverbs and adverbial phrases:
Adverbs: tomorrow; next week; soon

Root, Prefix and Suffix
An English word can be made up of three elements: the Root, a Prefix and a Suffix.
*The part of the word that contains the basic meaning is called the Root.
*(e.g. act, form, and test). It is the foundation of the word.
*The word part that is placed in front of a root is called a Prefix.
*(e.g. re- + act = react < The prefix ‘re-’ means ‘back’ or ‘again.’)
*The prefix can change the meaning of the root word and makes a new word.
*The part of the word that is placed after the root is called Suffix.
*(e.g. re- + act + -ion = reaction < The suffix ‘-ion’ indicates that the word has turned
into a noun.)
*Prefixes and suffixes are called Affixes because they are connected to a root.
Activity
Look at the words and determine if the affix is a prefix or a suffix.

A Thank you everybody for coming to this meeting on team building. I’d like to invite
everybody to join in the discussion. Janice, do you want to go first?
J Sure. Hi. First, the goals we make should follow these five rules.
They must be specific, easy to measure, attainable, you know, not
difficult to reach, relevant, and time-specific. All in all they must
be SMART.
H I agree with Janice. And to add to what she just said, I think it’s
also important to communicate our goals well. It’s important for
team leaders and members to stay informed about each step of
their project. They can do this through e-mails, text messages,
and status reports.

Packing for Your Business Trip
Traveling overseas for business can be a very stressful ordeal. There are ways to use your
time efficiently and pack for your trip in a timely manner. One thing to
consider before traveling is what to pack in your suitcase and bags.
First, you’ll need to make a checklist of items to put in your suitcase.
They are items you won’t need until you arrive at your hotel such as
clothes, toiletries, and possibly gifts. For all other things, you will
want to have a smaller suitcase or bag with you to take on the
plane, train, or other mode of transportation you’re taking. These
items might include your work material such as files and reports,
your laptop, a book or two, your iPod or mp3, and important travel
documents including your tickets, passport and visa. Furthermore,
it is good to keep money and valuables hidden at all times. By
following the tips above, you won’t face the hassles that less-
prepared travelers often do.
