My name is Karen and I am a zookeeper. I work from 8 am to 5 pm. There are night zookeepers for
emergencies. They take care of sick animals. I visit the animals in the morning. I check their health. I clean
their habitat. I give them food. Most zoo animals eat a lot of food every day. For example, tigers eat about 15
kilos of meat every day. I feed them but it takes my time.
I need to play with the animals. I sometimes train the animals. For example, I play with the elephants with big
balls. I teach them to kick the balls. For the rest of my working hours, I spend time with the visitors. I teach
the young children about animals. I let them pet some of the small and calm animals.Those are baby monkeys
and birds. Young children understand the importance of animals. They learn the importance of protecting
animals and their homes. I never get bored with my job.

subject pronouns vs. possessive adjectives
Unit 2
The subject of a sentence is a person or thing that performs the action of the verb. Subject pronouns
are used to replace the subject (person or thing) of a verb. A subject pronoun is followed by the main
verb of the sentence, a modal verb or an auxiliary verb.
e.g.
I am a good cook.
I don’t like cooking.
I can cook well.

We use possessive adjectives to show who owns something. They are followed by nouns.

consonants. We can write these letters in both small and large forms.
Large letters are called upper case, or capital letters, such as A, F, T, W.

Small letters are called lower case letters, such as a, f, t, w.

How can I help you? How much is this / that? Can I pay by credit card?
How much are these? Should I pay it in cash?

e.g.

Sa
affirmative sentences
e
He / She / It walks in the park every night.
In affirmative sentences, we add the suffix –s to the main verb when the subject is he, she or it. The
suffix -s is also used as -es or -ies with some verbs.
e.g.
She walks every day.
She watches T.V. every day.
She carries that bag every day.
Adverbs of frequency
pl
With the present simple, we often use adverbs of frequency to say ‘how often’ we do something. These
adverbs are used just before the main verb in the sentence.
e.g.
m
We often go for a picnic in spring.
I don’t usually have breakfast.

‘have’ or ‘have got’
Unit 8
When we talk about possessions and relationships, we can use both ‘have’ and ‘have got.’ ‘Have got’
and ‘have’ mean the same. However, ‘have got’ is more informal and generally used in British English. In
American English, it is common to use the main verb ‘have.’ Also, they have differences in negative and
question structures.
e.g.
I have a new motorbike. (AmE) = I have got a new motorbike. (BrE)
She doesn’t have two sisters. (AmE) = She hasn’t got two sisters. (BrE)

present simple tense vs. present continuous tense
Unit 17
See the comparison of present simple and present continuous below:
e
I sometimes play soccer with my friends from work. She is talking on the phone at the moment.
We use present simple for facts and general truths. We sometimes use present continuous for future
e.g. plans.
I work as a nurse in a hospital. e.g.
Water freezes at zero degree Celsius. I am visiting my mother tonight.
It smells bad.
She wants to eat some ice cream.
pl
We usually use present simple with state* verbs.
e.g.
She is flying to London next week.
* State verbs are verbs that express a situation, not an action. They usually relate to thoughts, emotions,
relationships, senses and states of being. We usually do not use state verbs with continuous verb forms:
m
e.g.
I see the birds on the tree.
She has two children.
Note: We use some verbs like have and see in continuous tenses but they have different meanings.
e.g.
I am seeing my doctor today (seeing = visiting)
She is having breakfast now (having = eating)

can / can’t (ability and possibility)
Unit 18
4c We use ‘can / can’t’ to express ability / inability or possibility / impossibility. Like other modal verb
structures, we use the base form of the verb after ‘can / can’t’.
a. ability / inability
‘Can / can’t’ shows general (present and future) abilities or inabilities.
e
e.g.
Bats are mammals, but they can fly. (General)
Emus are birds, but they can’t fly. They can run fast. (General)
I can rent a house when I find a job. (In the future)
b. possibility / impossibility
pl
‘Can / can’t’ shows general possibilities / impossibilities.
e.g.
Take a sun cream with you. It can be sunny and hot in Florida. (General possibility)
Someone can steal your wallet here, be careful. (General possibility)
Eating too much fat can cause obesity. (General possibility)
You can’t be twin sisters. She is very different from you. (General impossibility)

I dislike Physics, Ken dislikes Literature.
I hate listening to rap music, my sister hates jazz music.

Note: We also use to+ V1 after like / love / enjoy instead of V+ing.
m
I like going for a picnic on sunny days = I like to go for a picnic on sunny days.
I want + noun / to V1 I want to buy a pair of sneakers; she wants to buy a new dress.
*I would (‘d) like to+ V1 I’d like to have some coffee, please.
I’d like and I want have the same meanings, but I’d like is more formal than I want; it is a politer

expression. We use I’d like while eating, drinking out, shopping or talking to strangers. See the negative
forms and questions below:

Mom: Do you want to eat something, dear?
Son: No, mom. I don’t want to eat anything. I want to drink some juice.

They also need lots of exercise because they are very playful.
Of course, you can also have a pet donkey. A miniature donkey is a small donkey but it still needs a large
garden. Miniature donkeys like having a friend with them all the time, so you need to have two donkeys
because they can get lonely.
