2. Add the suffixes from the first table above to the words in the following
table to form NOUNS (substantives). Sometimes you can add more than
one suffix. Make changes to the words if necessary. Use another color.
Example: 1. humanity (n. humankind) 2. humaneness (n. the moral
necessity for humaneness towards all people)
3. Which suffix can we add to the words? Then think of at least one more
word to form a NOUN (substantive) containing each suffix.
In this type of exercise which follows, you should read the whole text to get
a general idea of what it is about. Then read in more detail to decide if the
word you need is plural, or has a negative meaning. Always read to the end
of each sentence containing the gap, not just to the end of the line.
4. Use the word given in CAPITALS at the end of some of the lines to form
a word that fits in the gap in the same line.
6. Choose someone in this class and write a short description of what you
think his/her purse/bag or wallet is like, based on their personality.
The person who I choose was Vitória Bauer, and she seems to be a very
organized, smart and responsible person. Consequently I think that in her bag
she takes to school not only all the necessary materials like: a pen, a pencil,
an eraser, a ruler, some markers (of different colors), but also other kinds of
things like a hair brush, an extra face mask and a hand sanitiser gel pocket
tube.
I think that her bag is made of a “normal” kind of cloth, it is red and big,
because she needs a big bag to take all those things to school.
