SUMMARY OF UNIT 9 SHOPPING

The grammar studied in unit nine was as follows: Passive Voice and Quantifiers.
I’ll first explain about: Passive Voice.
The “Passive Voice” It is used when we want to give more importance to the object of a
sentence.

There are two elements that must always be present

when we build the "passive voice". These are: Verb
TO BE conjugated in time that we want to use it. And
the next verb must always be in the past participle.

The past participle of the verb is the third form of that

verb.

To build a passive voice the object must be

transformed into a subject, so we put it
first. In this case we use the verb "to be"
the second verb must go in past participle.
And then what was once the subject is now
the object.

We turn the object into a subject by putting

it first, we place the verb "to be" in the
simple past, the next verb goes in the
participle past and then the object goes.
In the future it is the same, the subject
becomes "our workes" the verb "to be" in
 Other uses of passive voice:
 When you don't know the person who
performed the action.
Example: The market was robbed.
 When it is not important who performed the
action.
Example: Pacific Mall was founded in 1636.
 When the performer is not a specific person.
Example: English is spoken in many countries
around the world.
 When you prefer not to mention the name of
the performer.
 Example: I was told that you didn't go to work
today.
I’ll second explain about: Quantifiers.
WHEN USED: Quantifiers indicate the amount of a name. They are answers to the
question "How many?". Like articles, quantifiers define a noun and are always placed
before the noun. Some can be used with countable nouns only, some with uncountable
nouns only, and some with both.

Quantifiers express an indeterminate EXAMPLES:

quantity and always precede a noun,
article or determinant. Some of the
most common quantifiers in English
are: some/any, much/many, (a) few/(a)
little, lots of/a lot of and enough.
Activities:
• How much is a pound of onions?
• In the market there are many
vegetables.
• Jeff goes shopping in many
markets.
• There are a few sales positions
here.
• There was a lot of people in the
concert.
