de aprendizaje.
Progresiones del nuevo mccems

Para el desarrollo de nuestro libro hemos tomado como base el nuevo Marco Curricular Común de la
Educación Media Superior (mccems), este presenta un conjunto de lineamientos que establecen las com-
petencias y habilidades que deben ser desarrolladas por los estudiantes de Educación Media Superior en
México.
Una de las características más importantes del nuevo mccems es que se enfoca en el desarrollo inte-
gral del estudiante, no solo en el conocimiento académico, de modo que nuestro contenido se ciñe a dicha
consigna.

Currículum fundamental
El desarrollo integral del nuevo mccems contempla un currículum fundamental que está integrado
por áreas de conocimiento correspondientes a los aprendizajes de trayectoria que representan la base
común de la formación multidisciplinar de este, y recursos sociocognitivos que son comunes a todos
los egresados y desempeñan un papel transversal en dicho currículum para lograr los aprendizajes de
trayectoria.

“Artificial intelligence is a great tool. Let's

- Mario Ramirez
ChatGPT is a computer program. It has advanced technology to

understand and answer your questions. It can communicate with you in
English, so you can practice reading, writing, and vocabulary.
When you have a question about science, math, or English, ask
ChatGPT and it will explain it to you.
When you use ChatGPT to help you with your homework, it is
important to be honest. Don't copy your homework from ChatGPT.
That is cheating. Don't be a cheater. Be honest. Use ChatGPT to help
you understand the problem and find the answer on your own.
Being honest means telling the truth and not pretending to know
something that you don't. By being honest and using ChatGPT to learn,
you will not only improve your English skills but also your critical thin-

academic and personal life.

-Laura Diaz
High school is fun. This is a time to have many friends. These are days to learn and play. These are also days
to think about our future. What do you want to become? A doctor? A business person? An architect? A
teacher? This is a big decision.
Next week we have our annual Higher Education Fair. Universities from all over the country come to our
school. They show all the careers we can study. They will have stands in the gym and the basketball court.
Every year, we have a conference with Mr. Maldonado about vocational choices. We also have surprises
like scholarships for some universities, raffles of school supplies, bookstore gift cards and promotional pens,
notebooks, binders, backpacks, pencil cases, and more. And for the first time, we have the mother of all
raffles this year: you can win an iPad or a Samsung tablet!
So, don't forget to attend this great event. See you at the Higher Education Fair next week!

IMPERATIVE SENTENCES
“Take out your book” is an IMPERATIVE SENTENCE. It
Juan, take out your book. means “I want you to take out your book”. I am giving you an

• Open the window. • Sit down. = (YOU) Sit down.
• Open the window. =
• (YOU) Open the window.

PERSONAL (SUBJECT) PRONOUNS
We use personal pronouns to substitute nouns. Personal pronouns are usually the subject of a sentence, that's
why they are also called subject pronouns. Look how personal pronouns substitute nouns in the following
examples.

He is not = He isn't
She is not = She isn't
It is not = It isn't
We are not = We aren't
You are not = You aren't
They are not = They aren't
VERB TO BE-INTERROGATIVE
When we want to ask questions using the verb “to be”, we invert the order of the subject and the verb. We begin
with the verb and then, we write the subject. Look at the examples. These are called yes/no questions because
they can only be answered with “yes” or “no”.
Am I?
Am I a student?
Are you?
Are you a teacher?
Is he?
Is he an interpreter?
Is she?
Is she a nurse?
Is it?
Is it a cat?
Are we?
Are we in Mexico City?
Are you?
Are you in Lima?
Are they?
Are they friends?
• ADJECTIVES are words that describe people, places, or things.

• In English, ADJECTIVES don't have number or gender. We use the same word for singular and plural,
masculine and feminine. For example:
I have a small cat. (singular) She is an intelligent woman. (feminine)
There are two small cats in my house. (plural) He is an intelligent man. (masculine)
• When we write more than one ADJECTIVE to describe someone or something, we write them in a particular
order:
NUMBER OPINION SIZE SHAPE AGE COLOR ORIGIN MATERIAL NOUN
Two Ugly Big Old Brown Chairs
A Beautiful Young Mexican Girl
An Expensive Small Round Antique Golden Chinese Silver Clock
Several Cheap Large Square New Red Plastic Blocks

INDEFINITE ARTICLE-A/AN
We use a/an to talk about one person, animal, place or thing. For example:
A teacher A box A cat A museum
What is the difference between a and an?

A teacher A trophy
A musician A can
A dentist A banana
A carpenter
We use an before a vowel sound. For example:
An accountant An ice-cream
An electrician An old armchair
An ant An umbrella
An apple An ugly t-shirt
PLURAL NOUNS
When we have more than one item of something or we talk about more than one person, we need to use a plural

1. Read the following description of Adan and Diego, Jesus's twin brothers.
Opposite twins
I have twin brothers, Adan and Diego. They are very different. Diego is clean and polished. He
keeps his things in perfect order. He classifies his clothes and shoes by color. He takes care of
his things. He cleans his room every day. After having breakfast, he washes the dishes and puts
them away.
Adan is the opposite. He only takes a shower when he goes out
with his girlfriend. His things are always messy. He never has clean
clothes. He wears the same pair of jeans for one week. He
doesn't take care of his things. His room looks like a
war zone. After having breakfast, he never washes the
dishes. He piles them up in the sink.
I think the reason they are different is because
Diego is married now. His wife, Carla,
doesn't like a dirty house, so Diego is careful
and clean. Adan lives alone. He doesn't have
time to clean his apartment.

a. How many brothers does Jesus have?
He has two brothers.
b. How does Diego keep his things?

He keeps his things in perfect order.
c. What does he do with his clothes and shoes?

THERE IS / THERE ARE

When we want to express the existence of something, we use the following structures:
There is + a/an + singular noun.
There is a smart TV in the bedroom.
There is an oven in the kitchen.
There are + plural nouns.

There are four bedrooms.
There are two offices.
THERE ISN'T / THERE AREN'T

When we want to express that something does not exist, we use the negative:
There isn't + a/an + singular noun
There isn't a store nearby.
There isn't an interesting film in the cinema.
There aren't + plural nouns
There aren’t ornaments.
There aren’t balloons.
IS THERE…? / ARE THERE…?

When we want to ask about the existence of something, we use the following structures:
Is there a + singular noun +?
Is there a famous player?
Are there + plural nouns +?

Are there celebrations and festivals?
Are there unique animals?
ATTENTION!
You may also ask about the number of things in existence by using the following question:
How many + plural noun + are +t here +?
How many chairs are there?
There are ten chairs.
How many teachers are there?
There is one teacher.
Notice that we always ask the question in the plural form. The answer may be plural or singular.

PREPOSITIONS OF PLACE
They tell us the position of something or someone in relation to something or someone else. The following are
the most common prepositions of place:
• Behind.
• Between.
• In.
• In front of.
• Inside.
• Next to.
• On.
• Through.
• Under.
Prepositions of place answer the question Where…?
• Where is Cotton the Cat? It is under the box.
• Where is the teabag? It is in the cup.
• Where are the towels? They are on the floor.
• Where are the books? They are under the desk.
POSSESSIVE ADJECTIVES
Possessive adjectives are used to show possession.
PERSONAL PRONOUN POSSESSIVE ADJECTIVE
I have a car. My car is blue.
You have a sister. Your sister is beautiful.
He has a house. His house is big.
She has a computer. Her computer is new.
Mexico City is big. It has museums, Its museums are beautiful.

Cotton has whiskers. It has a tail. Its tail is long and fluffy.
We have a new house. Our new house is new.
You have a new car. Your new car is expensive.
They have two sisters. Their two sisters are twins.

140 INGLÉS I
Now you know possessive adjectives. In English, there is another way to show possession: 's.
1. We use 's to say that something belongs to someone, for example:
The car of Mario = Mario's car
The book of Laura = Laura's book
The cat of Tom = Tom's cat
2. We use's to say that something is connected to a place:
Mexico's culture
Quintana Roo's archaeological sites
Puebla's mole
We use 's to express the relationship between people:
The parents of Ana = Ana’s parents
The sister of Laura = Laura’s sister
The husband of my cousin = My cousin’s husband
POSSESSIVE PRONOUNS
A possessive pronoun is used instead of a possessive adjective + noun. We usually use them to avoid repeating
information.
This jacket is my jacket, not your jacket.
This jacket is mine, not yours.
POSSESSIVE ADJECTIVE POSSESSIVE PRONOUN
MY My jacket is black. MINE The black jacket is mine.
YOUR Your shoes are brown. YOURS The brown shoes are yours.
HIS His shirt is yellow. HIS The yellow shirt is his.
HER Her dress is elegant. HERS The elegant dress is hers.
We normally don't use a possessive pronoun

ITS Its collar is new. ITS
for Its
OUR Our uniforms are comfortable. OURS The comfortable uniforms are ours.
YOUR Your suits are formal. YOURS The formal suits are yours.
THEIR Their jeans are torn. THEIRS The torn jeans are theirs.
ATTENTION!
When we wat to ask about the possession of something we use the question
Whose is /are…?
Whose is this sweater? It's mine.
Whose are these shoes? They are yours.
TO LEARN MORE 141
SIMPLE PRESENT TENSE

A verb is the name of an action or condition. We use verbs in different tenses to express what the subject does.
We use the SIMPLE PRESENT to:

a. Express habitual actions or routines. For example:
I go to school every day.
You take a shower every morning.
We load the truck at 5:00 a.m.
b. Describe something that is always true. For example:

Birds migrate to the south.
ATTENTION!
Look at the conjugation of the verbs in the SIMPLE PRESENT:
AFFIRMATIVE
Go
Wake
I Take
You Brush
We Begin
You Think
They Like
Love
Eat
Cry
He teaches me to make pieces of furniture. She brings a lot of gifts.

She cooks my favorite dishes. He carries my books.
My grandma lives in Guadalajara. My dog eats dry food.
ATTENTION!
When the subject of the sentence is a third person singular, he/she/it we add -s to the verb.
Look at the conjugation of verbs in the SIMPLE PRESENT in the third person singular he/she/it:

Subject + does + not + verb (simple form).
NEGATIVE
go
wake

ATTENTION!
When we make negative sentences in the third person singular (he/she/it), we only conjugate the auxiliary verb
does. We write the verb of the sentence in its simple form.
Affirmative: He wakes up at 7:00 a.m.

Interrogative: He does not (doesn't) wake up at 7:00.

When we want to ask a question in the third person singular, we need the auxiliary verb does.
The structure for the interrogative form of the simple present is:

podcast is about setting goals and objectives. I seldom make
podcasts about school topics, but I think that goals are important.

LAURA: Hi Jesus! The guys and I are going to the movies on Friday. Would
you like to come?
JESUS: Hi Laura! I'm sorry, but I can't. I have to run some errands for my dad.
LAURA: Oh! You're always very busy.
JESUS: Well, yes. I'm usually busy helping my dad. For example, on Thursdays, I pick up the laundry
and take it home. Then, I prepare lunch, I eat, wash the dishes and clean the kitchen. When I finish,
I feed my dog. Then, I do my homework.
LAURA: Wow! What time does your father arrive home?

Choose Healthy Food and Drinks

To eat healthily, you must take control of what you eat and drink. For example,
replace food high in sugar, salt, and unhealthy fat with fruit and vegetables.
Fruits and Vegetables
Make half of your plate fruit and vegetables. Dark green, red, and orange vegetables have high levels
of the nutrients you need, like vitamin C, calcium, and fiber. Adding tomatoes and spinach to your
sandwich is an easy way to get more veggies in your meal.
Protein

FREQUENCY ADVERBS
An adverb is a word we use to modify, qualify, or describe a verb, an adjective, or another adverb.
Pay attention to the words in red in the reading. They are called frequency adverbs. We use them to express
how often an action is done.
100% Always We always have a lot of homework.
Usually I usually chat with my friends on weekends.
Often We often go for ice cream.
50% Sometimes I sometimes go with my father to his soccer game.
Seldom I seldom make podcasts about school topics.
Rarely He rarely misses a practice.
0% Never I never rest during the week.
Pay attention to the position of frequency adverbs. They are placed between the subject and the verb.
Subject + frequency adverb + verb
They always get up early in the morning.
There are some other frequency or time expressions:
Once a week = one time a week Twice a month, I visit my cousins.

I record a podcast once a week. This week, the podcast is about setting goals.
Twice a week = two times a week Every Sunday, we get together for lunch.
We can combine words to make more frequency expressions:
Three times a week/day/month/year

Two times/twice a week/day/month/year
One time/once a week/day/month year
For example:
Mario helps Laura three times a week.
Dennise visits her grandmother twice a year.
ATTENTION!
When we want to ask about the frequency someone does an activity, we ask:
How often do/does + subject + verb ?
How often do you take the bus? I always take the bus.
How often does he help Laura? He helps Laura twice a week.
