Who fs It forP
The book is designed primarily, but not exclusively, for adult students studying ESOL at schools
and colleges in the United Kingdom.

It can be used to support topic- and function-based class work. Alternatively, students can use
it for self-study or for their own reference.

The rationale underlying the book is to make grammar accessible, relevant and memorable. This is done
by making use of step-by-step activities and clear contextualized language.

Level
The material takes the Key Grammatical Structures at Entry Levels 1/2 from the Adult ESOL core curriculum
as its basis.

We know that the language profile of ESOL students at or around ‘pre-intermediate’ level is rarely an exact
match for the Adult ESOL core curriculum level specifications. The book therefore attempts to take this
‘spiky profile’ of ESOL classes into account through accessible explanations and graded practice exercises.

Content
The book contains 30 units, followed by grammar notes, a database containing vocabulary notes
and other information, an answer key and a pronunciation key.

Approach
The approach used in ESOL Practice Grammar asks students to infer the pattern or rule from context,
rather than making overt statements about the language, to encourage genuine language development

The ‘Use in Context’ section in each unit presents the grammar point through a realistic scenario, usually
a naturalistic dialogue involving characters that ESOL students can identify with. Students are asked to
focus on key elements of the language to help them understand the pattern or rule. Further clarification
is provided by referring the students to appropriate grammar notes at the back of the book.

A set of exercises practising the grammar point follows each ‘Use in Context’. These exercises are designed
to account for differentiation within a class by offering a progressive degree of challenge. Where appropriate,
the final exercise personalizes the grammar point with communicative interaction.

I would like to thank Sue Messenger and the ESOL students and teachers in the Skills for Life Department
at Central Sussex College. Also thanks to Lin for her support throughout.

The writing of a book like this necessarily involves reference to the corpus of published ELT grammar books.
In this respect, I would like to acknowledge in particular the work of R Murphy (CUP) and D Beaumont
(Macmillan/Heinemann).

Unit 30. Comparative acOectfves <75


www.frenglish.ru

1 am / is / are: the verb be 1


We can use the verb be to talk about personal information, for example:
• name: My name is Deva. I’m Deva.
• country: I’m from Sri Lanka.
• nationality: I’m Sri Lankan.
• age: I’m 32 years old. My son is eight.
• marital status: I’m married. I’m single. I’m divorced.
• job: He’s a taxi driver.
• family: We are a small family of four people.
• feelings: Sometimes life isn’t easy but we ’re happy.

2 there is / there are / it is / they are: the verb be 2


We use:
there is or there are to talk about things or people generally
there is for one thing or person: There’s a supermarket.
there are for more than one thing or person: There are lots of families with young children in our street,
it is when we know the special thing or person: It’s (the supermarket’s) a big shop with everything I need,
they are when we know the special things or people: They (the families) are all very friendly.

3 The present continuous


We use the present continuous to talk about:
• something that is happening right now: Rafiq is working.
• the general present situation: Amir’s looking for a job.
• future arrangements: I’m working tomorrow morning.
To form the present continuous we add -ing to the verb:
jump - jump + ing = jumping, walk - walk + ing = walking, stay + ing = staying
For verbs ending in -e, remove the ‘e’ and add -ing:
live - live + ing = living, come - come + ing = coming
For some verbs we need to double the final consonant before adding -ing:
shop - shop + p + ing = shopping, run - run+ n + ing = running
For verbs ending in -ie, remove the 7e’ and add ‘y ’ before adding -ing:
die - d + y + ing = dying, lie - 1+ y + ing = lying

4 I / you / we / they: present simple I


We use the present simple to talk about:
• activities every day, most days, often, sometimes, generally: I go to work.
• true information: She lives in London.
We use some verbs in the simple form, not the continuous, all the time.
For example: know - 1know (Jlm-kmwtng). We call these state or stative verbs. The following are all stative
verbs: agree, believe, forget, remember, think (= believe), understand, like, hate, need, prefer, want, hear, see,
smell, taste, belong, cost.

She I she / it: present simple 2


The pronunciation of ~s and ~es endings:
• Words ending in ~se: close closes At 1au z i zJ use uses / j u i z i z /
• Words ending in ~sh: finish -» finishes A i n i Ji z/ brush brushes /b r a f i z/ wash -> washes /w dJ i zJ
• Words ending in ~ch: watch -> watches M d t Ji zJ match matches / m a e t / iz / teach - » teaches A i i t j i z /
• Words ending in ~ss: pass passes / p a i s i z / kiss -> kisses /k i s i z /
• Words ending in ~ry, ~dy: hurry -> hurries /h a r i z / carry -» carries /k ae r i zJ study -> studies /s t a d i zJ
• Some other present simple verbs are formed by adding ~s to a verb ending in ~e, but the ~es is not pronounced
as a separate syllable: live -> lives A iv z J come -> comes A Am zJ leave -> leaves A i: v z /

Grammar notes
www.frenglish.ru

6 Imperatives
The imperative is formed by using the infinitive without ‘to’, for example:J & q t f g o .
We use imperatives for:
• instructions: Take two tablets three times a day.
• orders: Send them an e-mail.
• directions: Turn left at the traffic lights.
• invitations and offers: Please come in. Have another biscuit.

7 Question words
Note the word order for making questions:
• present continuous: Am I going?/Are you / w e / they going? /Is h e / she / it going?
• present simple: Do I/you / w e / they go? Does he / she / it go?

8 can / can't (cannot) / could / couldn't: modal verbs


We usually say can’t but the full form is cannot (one word).
We use can for present ability: I can play the piano (now). For past ability we use could: I could play the piano when I
was five.
We use can or could for present or future possibility: I can meet you at 6.00. / / could meet you at 6.00. There is little
difference in meaning. Here, could is not the past of can.
We use can or could to ask someone for something: Can you help me, please? Could you post a letter for me? Again,
there is little difference in meaning. Here, could is not the past of can.

4 have got
We never use have got for activities: I’m having a good time. (Lhave got a good time:)
British English uses have got more than American English, for example:
• British English: A: Have you got a pen? B: Yes,! have.
• American English: A: Do you ha ve a pen? B: Yes, I do.

10 some / any: quantity I


We usually use some in positive sentences and any in negative (not) sentences.
In questions, there is not a clear rule - sometimes we use some and sometimes any. If we use some, the question
feels more positive and we expect the answer ‘Yes’: Have you got some money? (Yes, of course!) but we can also ask:
Have you got any money? We often use some when we are offering something: Would you like some cake? We can
also say: Would you like any cake?

11 how much / how many / a lo t / a few / a little: quantity 2


We can count countable nouns, for example: one egg, two eggs, three eggs.
We can’t count uncountable nouns, for example: milk, -twe-mtfks-
With uncountable nouns, we often use another way of counting them, for example: two bottles of milk.
We use some nouns as countable and uncountable, for example: I’d like two coffees, please, (two cups of coffee =
countable). I need to buy some coffee, (a kilo of coffee = uncountable).

12 Making plurals: nouns


The plurals of these commonly used nouns are exceptions to the normal rules:
potato -> potatoes, tomato -> tomatoes, man -> men, woman -» women, child -> children, person -> people,
tooth -» teeth, foot feet, mouse mice, sheep sheep, fish -> fish.

Some verbs + prepositions have special meanings. These are phrasal verbs or expressions. For example:
• up: pick (someone) up, hurry, get, clean, tidy, wash
• on: come, go, put on/take off
Some phrasal verbs can be followed by different prepositions with different meanings, for example, look: look after =
take care of, look at = watch, look for = try to find

24 Uses o f like
We normally use the verb to like in the simple form: Do you like?/ / like / / don’t like (UmJrktfig).
We can also use the verb to like with ‘would’ to make an offer - Would you like? - or to say what we want - I’d like
(I’d like to go for a coffee.)
In the sentence ‘What’s (is) it like?’ the word like is not a verb and it has a different meaning. It means ‘similar to’. We
use What’s it like? to ask someone to tell us how something is, to describe it. So, ‘What’s the weather like?’ is asking
how the weather is, not if you enjoy it. The answer is, for example, ‘It’s hot and sunny’, not, 7 like the weather’.
We can also use like to ask about people, for example:
• A: What’s your brother like ? B: He’s tall and friendly.
• A: Are you like (similar to) your brother? B: No, my brother and I are very different.

Questions about the past:

2% Present continuous / will / going to: future


w ill: We use will for general future actions often if we are not 100% sure - 1think I’ll go to the party on Saturday -
or with probably definitely - I’ll definitely phone you tonight. Sometimes we use will for a sudden decision - I’ve got
five minutes free, so I’ll phone George. The negative of will is won’t (will not).
going to: We often use going to for things we want to do, have decided to do or intend to do. I’m going to travel
round the world after I finish at college. We can say going to go but we often just say going to: I’m going to go to
London at the weekend - I’m going to London at the weekend.
We also use going to if we can see something is going to happen in the near future: The sky is very dark. It’s going
to rain.
present continuous: We often use present continuous for appointments, dates and arrangements which are fixed.
I’m playing football at 3.00 tomorrow afternoon.

24 m ust / m ustn't / have to: obligation


We use must and have to to say something is necessary. Generally, we use have to for laws, rules, something
someone else tells us to do - You have to register with the police in this country - and we use must for more
personal obligations - 1must do some ironing - but the difference between using must and have to is very small.
We use don’t/doesn’t have to to say something is not necessary We can also say needn’t - 1 don’t have to wear a
suit = I needn ’t wear a suit.
Mustn’t has a similar meaning to can’t / not allowed to, or even, forbidden / prohibited.
You mustn’t smoke in here = You can’t smoke in here / You’re not allowed to smoke in here/Smoking in here is
forbidden / prohibited.
Must has only one form - the present. We can use it for the future, for example, I must phone my mother tomorrow,
but we normally use have to for other tenses: I’ll have to phone my mother tomorrow, I had to phone her yesterday.

30 Comparative adjectives
Adjectives ending consonant + vowel (a,e,i,o,u) + consonant: double the consonant to make the comparative:
big bigger, hot -» hotter, sad -> sadder, fat -» fatter, fit -> fitter
Two-syllable adjectives: some add -er, for example: quiet -» quieter. But most comparatives are with more:
more modern, more careful, more peaceful.
