A COLD DAY
It was a frigid January day in York, Pennsylvania. The temperature was below
freezing. Snow was starting to fall. Dr. James turned on the television to check the
weather. He had to leave for his work at the hospital soon. “Today is going to be
very cold,” said the TV weatherman. “Be sure to wear very warm clothes when you
go outside. Also, be careful driving on the roads. Snowfall will make them slippery.
In fact, if you can stay home today, do it!” Dr. James couldn’t stay home. Very sick
people were waiting to see him at the hospital. He went to his closet. He took out
the warmest clothes he had. He put on a sweater, jacket, gloves, socks, boots and
a hat. He opened his front door to go to work. A gust of cold air blew inside. “Wow,
it is very cold outside,” Dr. James said. He was from Miami and didn’t like the cold.
“The weatherman was right!” Before he could drive to work, Dr. James had to clear
the snow off his car. He did this very fast. He hopped in the car. He shivered. His
neck felt especially cold. Dr. James drove slowly to work. Everyone else was
driving slowly, too. There was a lot of traffic on the road. There were cars in front
and behind. Suddenly, the cars in front of Dr. James came to a stop. There had
been an accident! Dr. James hurried from his car to check on the driver of the car
that had swerved off the road. “Is everyone okay?” Dr. James asked. “Yes, yes, we
are fine. We slipped on a patch of ice,” the driver said. “This would have been a
good day to stay home in bed.”

PRESENT PERFECT
[Has/have + past participle]
Examples:
• You have seen that movie many times.

According to English grammar, we use the Present Perfect to express that an action happened
at an unspecified time before now. The exact time is not important. You CANNOT use the
Present Perfect with specific time expressions such as: yesterday, one year ago, last week,
when I was a child, when I lived in Japan, at that moment, that day, one day, etc. We also the
Present Perfect uses unspecific expressions such as: ever, never, once, many times, several
times, before, so far, already, yet, etc.

• I've been waiting for him for 30 minutes and he still hasn't arrived.
• He's been telling me about it for days. I wish he would stop.
It can refer to a series of actions.

Japanese Immigration to the United States
The first Japanese immigrants came to the United States in search of a better life. Some
left Japan because wages were low or because they were forced to leave their land.
Many of the Japanese were skilled farmers and were willing to work hard and travel.
This made labor agents seek them out for work in sugar plantations in Hawai’i. Some of
those Japanese who moved to Hawai’i later moved to the mainland of the United States.
Others moved directly from Japan to the West Coast of the United States in search of
jobs.

EXPRESSIVE PURPOSE: That I express my experiences using past perfect

in an oral and written way


HOW DO WE MAKE THE PAST PERFECT TENSE?
The structure of the past perfect tense is:
subject + auxiliary verb HAVE + main verb
conjugated in simple past tense past participle
had V3
For negative sentences in the past perfect tense, we insert not between the auxiliary
verb and main verb. For question sentences, we exchange the subject and auxiliary
verb. Look at these example sentences with the past perfect tense:
Subject auxiliary verb main verb
+ I Had Finished my work.
+ You Had Stopped before me.
- She had not Gone to school.
? Had they Eaten dinner?

When speaking with the past perfect tense, we often contract the subject and auxiliary
verb:
I had= I´d - you had= you’d - he/she/it had= he´d - we had= we’d - they
had=they’d
Put the verbs in brackets into the gaps in the correct tense Past Perfect or Simple
Past.
Example: Pat _________ (to live) in London before he _________ (to move) to Rome.
Answer: Pat had lived in London before he moved to Rome.
1) After Fred_______(to spend) his holiday in Italy he______(to want) to learn Italian.
2) Jill________(to phone) Dad at work before she__________(to leave) for her trip.
3) Susan_________(to turn on) the radio after she_________(to wash) the dishes.
4) When she________(to arrive) the match________already_______ (to start).
5) After the man_______(to come) home he__________ (to feed) the cat.
6) Before he _________ (to sing) a song he_________(to play) the guitar.
7) She_________(to watch) a video after the children__________(to go) to bed.
8) After Eric__________(to make) breakfast he__________(to phone) his friend.

WORK ON THIS READING COMPREHENSION

Many people worked to create television. In 1862, Abbe Giovanna Caselli invented a
machine called the Pantelograph. Caselli was the first person to send a picture over
wires. By the 1880s, Alexander Graham Bell invented a machine that transmitted
pictures and sound over wires. His machine was called the Photophone.
The World’s Fair was held in Paris, France, in the year 1900. The first International
Congress of Electricity was held at the World’s Fair. That was when the word television
was first used – by a Russian named Constantin Perskyi. That name stuck, and is now
shortened to “TV.” At the beginning of TV history, there were several types of TV
technology. One system was a mechanical model based on a rotating disc. (Rotating
discs are discs that spin like CDs.) The other system was an electronic model. In 1906,
Boris Rosing built the first working mechanical TV in Russia. In the 1920s, John Logie
Baird in England and Charles Francis Jenkins in the United States demonstrated
improved mechanical systems. Philo Taylor Farnsworth also showed an electronic
system in San Francisco in 1927. His TV was the forerunner of today’s TV, which is an
electronic system based on his ideas. Now TV is everywhere. Before 1947, there were
only a few thousand televisions in the U.S. By the 1990s, there were televisions in 98%
of American homes.

FAKE VAN GOGH SELLS FOR $35 MILLION
A fake painting supposedly by Vincent Van Gogh has been sold for $35 million in Paris.
Paris June 9 2004
Imagine this: It's the chance of a lifetime. You have the necessary cash and you have
the opportunity to buy a Van Gogh. After purchasing the painting and placing it on your
living room wall to show to all your friends, you discover that the painting is a forgery!
That's what happened to an anonymous telephone bidder who purchased Sunflowers in
the Wind at the Peinture Company in Paris, France. The first (supposed) Van Gogh
painting to have been auctioned since last year's record sale of $40 million, the forgery
was sold for $35 million. The painting had also been reported to be the last ever offered
for sale, Britain's Daily Times reported Thursday.
Unfortunately, shortly after the masterpiece had been transferred to the buyer's home,
the Academy of Fine Arts released a statement saying that Sunflowers in the Wind was
a fake. Upon further investigation, the report proved to be true. The unlucky buyer was
forced to recognize that he or she had indeed purchased a forgery.

The first conditional is a structure used for talking about possibilities in the present or in
the future. A first conditional sentence consists of two clauses, an "if" clause and a main
clause:
if clause main clause
If you study hard, You will pass the test.

If the "if" clause comes first, a comma is usually used. If the "if" clause comes second, there is no need for
a comma:
main clause if clause
You will pass the test if you study hard.

We use different verb forms in each part of a first conditional:
main clause if clause
You will pass the test if you study hard.

The first conditional is used to talk about things which are possible in the present or the future — things
which may happen:
Example Explanation
If it's sunny, we'll go to the park. Maybe it will be sunny — that's possible.
Paula will be sad if Juan leaves. Maybe Juan will leave — that's possible.

SEQUENCE OF UNUSUAL EVENTS

In the summer of 2008 I and my partner moved into an apartment together, it is quite an
old building that has been renovated recently. As we had just moved in we were working
on the flat and consequently spent most of our time in the bedroom while other rooms
were completed. Everything had been fine up until one night I slept in the apartment on
my own and decided to sleep in the living room. I fell asleep and woke up at 4:08 am to
a freezing cold room which was unexplainable as it was the middle of summer, I decided
to ignore it and go back to sleep thinking nothing of it.
As the weeks went by we settled in and I became to feel very comfortable until one day I
took a picture of my girlfriend and noticed an unusual figure standing over her shoulder.
The figure was a face but with a body that wasn't human, not animal like but almost like
a worm if you could call it that. We analyzed the picture and decided to ignore it and
thought we were both going mad!
A few weeks later as we were about to go to sleep I felt extremely uncomfortable, not
physically but just as if I didn't want to be in the room I was in. Later that night I woke up
not being able to move any part of my body except my toes and with a figure standing
right next to me that appeared to be male but was very faint white, I believe this is called
an affirmation, I tried to kick out at this figure but I couldn't move, I shouted at the top of
my voice but my girlfriend would not wake up, after 20 seconds it disappeared and my
girlfriend awoke asking me what's wrong, I was freezing cold and shivering and I told her
what had happened, we decided to turn on the light and try to be calm until it got light
again, I checked the time when this happened and it was 4:08 am, almost exactly the
same time as it was when I woke up feeling uncomfortable before. We waited until it was
light and as I went to get up a vase with twelve roses seem to be pushed off the
cupboard onto the floor when neither of us was near it, this was enough for my girlfriend
who screamed and insisted we moved out. This was August time; we decided to move
out as we felt very unwelcome at this new home.
Five months down the line we decided we'd had enough of living at our parents and
decided to pluck up the courage to move back. We finished decorating the apartment
and made it very homely and also got two cats. A month after moving back in I woke up
one night feeling paralyzed and unable to breath, I also could not shut my eyes, I didn't
see anything this time but I had to struggle very hard to break out of the grip of whatever
it was. This did not frighten me and I went straight back to sleep. It happened again 3
times but I was able to breathe just not able to move for 30 seconds.
Then the other night I woke up, mysteriously at 4.08 am to find the taps in my bathroom
running, I got up and decided to turn the water off at the mains, I went to get back into
bed and the taps started running again, feeing slightly worried I stepped out of bed again
to turn the taps off, as I did this every light and electrical appliance in the apartment
switched off, feeling now that something spooky was going on I walked to my front door
to turn back on the electrics, as I did so my front door swung open in front of me as if it
was for me to get out. I decided to get my apartment blessed by a priest yesterday and
am now hopeful this is the end of the matter. Does anybody have any ideas what this
could be?

ϲϲ

The past perfect tense is often used in English when we are relating two events which
happened in the past. It helps to show which event happened first. This page will explain
the rules for forming and using the tense.
Forming the past perfect tense

This tense is formed using two components: the verb HAVE (in the past tense), and the
past participle form of a verb. With a regular verb the past participle ends with -ED (just
like the simple past). Irregular verbs have a special past participle form that you have to
learn. Here are the rules, using the regular verb "arrive" and the irregular verb "eat":
Past
Subject HAVE Contraction
Participle
ARRIVED. I'D ARRIVED.

I HAD
EATEN. I'D EATEN.
YOU'D
ARRIVED.
HE HAD ARRIVED.
EATEN.
YOU'D EATEN.
ARRIVED. HE'D ARRIVED.

THEY HAD
EATEN. HE'D EATEN.

IPOD NANO
The iPod nano is Apple's fourth digital audio player. It was introduced on September 7,
2005, replacing the iPod mini, which discontinued on the same day. It is only 1.6 inches
wide, 3.5 inches long, 0.27 inches thick and weighs 42 grams. Its stated battery life is
14 hours. The screen is 176x132 pixels, 1.5 inches diagonal, and can display 65,536
colours.
The iPod nano was launched in two colours (black and white) with two available sizes:
2GB (roughly 500 songs) for $199 and 4GB (1000 songs) for $249. Apple also released
some accessories, including armbands and silicone tubes (possibly a play on
nanotubes) designed to bring colour to the nano and protect it from scratches, as well as
a combination lanyard-earphone accessory that hangs around the neck.
The iPod nano uses flash memory instead of a hard disk. As a result, it has no
moving parts, making it immune to skipping and far more durable than disk-based
players. Testing by technology-enthusiast website Ars Technica has shown that even
after being driven over twice by a car, the unit's screen was damaged but that it could
still play music. The unit finally stopped playing music after being thrown 40 feet into the
air.
The initial consumer response to the iPod nano was overwhelmingly positive and
sales were heavy. The iPod nano sold its first 1 million units in only 17 days and has
driven Apply to a record billion-dollar profit for 2005.

READ THE FOLLOWING STORY AND ANSWER THE QUESTIONS:
BUTTERFLIES
There was a time in my life when beauty meant something special to me. I guess that
would have been when I was about six or seven years old, just several weeks or maybe
a month before the orphanage turned me into an old man.
I would get up every morning at the orphanage, make my bed just like the little soldier
that I had become and then I would get into one of the two straight lines and march to
breakfast with the other twenty or thirty boys who also lived in my dormitory.
After breakfast one Saturday morning I returned to the dormitory and saw the house
parent chasing the beautiful monarch butterflies who lived by the hundreds in the azalea
bushes strewn around the orphanage.
I carefully watched as he caught these beautiful creatures, one after the other, and
then took them from the net and then stuck straight pins through their head and wings,
pinning them onto a heavy cardboard sheet.
How cruel it was to kill something of such beauty. I had walked many times out into
the bushes, all by myself, just so the butterflies could land on my head, face and hands
so I could look at them up close.
When the telephone rang the house parent laid the large cardboard paper down on
the back cement step and went inside to answer the phone. I walked up to the
cardboard and looked at the one butterfly who he had just pinned to the large paper. It
was still moving about so I reached down and touched it on the wing causing one of the
pins to fall out. It started flying around and around trying to get away but it was still
pinned by the one wing with the other straight pin. Finally it's wing broke off and the
butterfly fell to the ground and just quivered.
I picked up the torn wing and the butterfly and I spat on it's wing and tried to get it to
stick back on so it could fly away and be free before the house parent came back. But it
would not stay on him.
The next thing I knew the house parent came walking back out of the back door by
the garbage room and started yelling at me. I told him that I did not do anything but he
did not believe me. He picked up the cardboard paper and started hitting me on the top
of the head. There were all kinds of butterfly pieces going everywhere. He threw the
cardboard down on the ground and told me to pick it up and put it in the garbage can
inside the back room of the dormitory and then he left.
I sat there in the dirt, by that big old tree, for the longest time trying to fit all the
butterfly pieces back together so I could bury them whole, but it was too hard to do. So I
prayed for them and then I put them in an old torn up shoe box and I buried them in the
bottom of the fort that I had built in the ground, out by the large bamboos, near the
blackberry bushes.
Every year when the butterflies would return to the orphanage and try to land on me I
would try and shoot them away because they did not know that the orphanage was a
bad place to live and a very bad place to die

The second conditional (also called conditional type 2) is a structure used for talking
about unreal situations in the present or in the future.
The structure of a second conditional sentence

Like a first conditional, a second conditional sentence consists of two clauses, an "if"
clause and a main clause:
IF clause main clause
If I had a million dollars, I would buy a big house.
If the "if" clause comes first, a comma is usually used. If the "if" clause comes second,
there is no need for a comma:
main clause IF clause
I would buy a big house if I had a million dollars.
We use different verb forms in each part of a second conditional: We use different verb

Tell your students to think about the things that they have done in their life and have
been meaningful for example:
“WHEN I WAS 7 YEARS OLD I ENTERED TO A SOCCER SCHOOL”
“LAST YEAR I MOVED FROM ANOTHER CITY TO HERE”
And then ask them to use a conditional to rephrase them; in this part you can model
something about third conditional

Third conditional
An imaginary situation in the past
The first conditional and second conditionals talk about the future. With the third
conditional we talk about the past. We talk about a condition in the past that did not
happen. That is why there is no possibility for this condition. The third conditional is also
like a dream, but with no possibility of the dream coming true.
Last week Agnes celebrated her birthday but I could not go to the pub with her because I
was broke. So I say:
If I had had enough money, I would have gone out with her.
I wish / If only I’d had enough money, I would have gone out with her.
Put the verb into the correct form and write which conditional it is.
1. If you ……………….. (pay) to much income tax, you ………………..

(not be) able to afford holidays abroad this year. ……………………
2. If only I ……………….. (have) money,

READ THE NEWSPAPER STORY BELOW.
Background: Softco’s game console ‘System-T’ has been withdrawn because of poor sales.
T-Console Withdrawn
Softco has announced that it has stopped production of the new game console ‘System-
T’.
Launched only twelve months ago to great fanfare, the System-T failed to live up to
expectations.
Analysts point to several failures in the design. Jack Pilot, a leading computer
commentator, said that size was the main issue. He noted that if the console had been
smaller, it would have been more popular in Japanese homes.
In addition to being bulky, the initial games were disappointing, with ‘Zombie Murder’
and ‘The Kung-Fu Cook’ in particular being described by ‘Computer Gaming’ magazine
as ‘less than impressive’. Many games enthusiasts have said that if Softco had written
better software, more
people would have bought the consoles.
Softco declined to comment on their future in the highly competitive game console
market. There are rumours that the company will quit the game market altogether, to
concentrate on PC-based office software.
ANSWER THE QUESTIONS IN YOUR NOTEBOOK
1) What did Softco announce?

2) What mistakes did Softco make?
3) Will Softco make other game consoles in the future?

MATCH THE TWO HALVES OF THE SENTENCES.
1) If the console had been better-designed, our overseas sales would have been better.
2) If sales had been higher, the software would have been better quality.
3) If we had offered our staff a better pay raise, we would have had higher sales.
4) If the dollar had been stronger last year, the product wouldn’t have been withdrawn.
5) If we had advertised more on television, we would have had a higher profile.
6) If we had hired qualified programmers, fewer would have quit.

for passenger traffic and the airport with the highest international passenger traffic in the
world. The airport is owned and operated by BAA which is owned by the Spanish
Ferrovial Group. The airport is also a primary hub of British Airways and a major hub for
rivals BMI and Virgin Atlantic.
The airport is located towards the southern end of the London Borough of Hillingdon, 24
km (15 miles) west of Central London, England. It is one of two international London
airports to be located within the boundary of the Greater London Area, the other being
London City Airport. To the north, Heathrow is surrounded by the built-up areas of
Harlington, Harmondsworth, Longford and Cranford, to the east are Hounslow and
Hatton, and to the south are East Bedfont and Stanwell. To the west, the M25 motorway
separates the airport from Colnbrook in Berkshire.
Heathrow has two parallel main runways running east-west and four terminals. A new
terminal, Terminal 5, is under construction and will open in March 2008. There are plans
to redevelop or rebuild other terminals and add extra runways. Beginning in 2008 and
finishing by 2012, the construction of Heathrow East will replace Terminal 2 and The
Queens Building.
Heathrow Airport has a United Kingdom Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) Public Use

WHAT ARE MODAL VERBS?

Modal verbs are special verbs which behave very differently from normal verbs. Here
are some important differences:
1. Modal verbs do not take "-s" in the third person.
Examples:
• He can speak Chinese.
• She should be here by 9:00.
2. You use "not" to make modal verbs negative, even in Simple Present and Simple
Past.
Examples:
• He should not be late.
• They might not come to the party.
3. Many modal verbs cannot be used in the past tenses or the future tenses.
Examples:
• He will can go with us. Not Correct
• She musted study very hard. Not Correct

EXPRESSIVE PURPOSE
That I can talk about different thing using verbs in past and past participle, in
an oral and written way.

In English, regular verbs consist of three main parts: the root form (present), the (simple)
past, and the past participle. Regular verbs have an -ed ending added to the root verb
for both the simple past and past participle. Irregular verbs do not follow this pattern, and
instead take on an alternative pattern.
On the other hand, processes that are the way to do things can be represented by a
flowchart. A flowchart is a graphic representation of what a process is, its steps, its
variables and its results.

READ THE FOLLOWING TEXT
• My Hometown
Many years ago, I was born in Seattle, Washington USA. Seattle is located in the
Northwest corner of the USA. Recently, Seattle has become the focus of much
international attention. Many films have been made there, probably the most famous
of which is Sleepless in Seattle starring Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks. Seattle is also
known as the birthplace of "Grunge" music; both Pearl Jam and Nirvana are from
Seattle. For older people like me, it should be noted that Jimmi Hendrix was born in
Seattle! NBA fans know Seattle for the "Seattle Supersonics", a team that has played
basketball in Seattle for more than 30 years. Unfortunately, Seattle is also famous for
its bad weather.
Seattle has also become one of the fastest-growing business areas in the United
States. Two of the most important names in the booming business scene in Seattle
are Microsoft and Boeing. Microsoft was founded and is owned by the world-famous
Bill Gates (how much of his software is on your computer?). Boeing has always been
essential to the economic situation in Seattle. It is located to the north of Seattle and
famous jets such as the "Jumbo" have been manufactured there for more than 50
years!
Seattle is one of America's most interesting cities.

ϭϮϰ

Phrasal verbs are mainly used in spoken English and informal texts. (The more formal a
conversation or text, the less phrasal verbs are found.)
Phrasal verbs consist of a verb plus a particle (preposition, adverb). The particle can
change the meaning of the verb completely, e.g.:
look up – consult a reference book (look a word up in a dictionary)
look for – seek (look for her ring)
look forward – anticipate with pleasure (look forward to meeting someone)
There are no rules that might explain how phrasal verbs are formed correctly - all you
can do is look them up in a good dictionary and study their meanings.

CONVERSATION, PRACTICE IT AND PRESENT IT TO THE CLASS, REMEMBER
THE FLUENCY AND THE ACCURACY
Phrasal verbs add colour to spoken language. Here are some phrasal verbs related to
food and eating. Guess what they mean as you read.
Tom Smith usually has only 15 minutes to eat lunch so he bolts it down (1). This does
not mean he eats much for lunch since he only has a sandwich and a coffee. However,
his wife Susan loves cooking and she always whips up (2) a wonderful dinner. This
explains why Tom is not so thin. He pigs out (3) every evening on a full course dinner -
a roast with vegetables and a pasta side and to top it off (4), a big dessert which Susan
picks up (5) on the way home from school where she is a teacher. Susan is quite petite,
so it is not surprising that she only picks at (6) all the food she prepares and just gnaws
at (7) a carrot or some other vegetable while she listens to Tom speak about his day.
For breakfast, Tom sometimes warms up (8) Susan's left-overs and then he runs off for
another day of work. This is against the doctor's advice so Tom should think about
cutting back (9) on meat and eggs to bring down (10) his cholesterol. Actually, Mary,
the woman who helps them with their house also has high cholesterol, even though she
has cut out (11) meat and eggs and is on a diet of fish and steamed vegetables.
Recently, however, Susan has noticed that the whiskey bottle is emptying out quite
quickly so she suspects that Mary is knocking it back (12) now and again. This would
be OK except for the fact that this is Susan's favourite bottle of whiskey!
So, what did the phrasal verbs mean? Write a short explanation for each.
1. to bolt down :___________________________________________________

2. to whip up : ____________________________________________________
3. to pig out : _____________________________________________________

READ THE FOLLOWING TEXT AND ANSWER THE QUESTIONS:
First things first: it’s probably better to call them multi-word verbs, since the
particle following the verb is not necessarily a preposition. Anyway, I have been
reading Scott Thornsbury’s blog on a regular basis and, last week, he started a
phrasal verbs thread that shed new light on what I thought I knew about
separable and inseparable multi-word verbs.
What Thornsbury says is that there’s more to separable and inseparable
phrasal verbs than meets the eye. Consider these examples:
1. He picked my son up – correct
2. He picked up my son – correct
3. He picked me up – correct
4. He picked up me – wrong
There are cases, however, when the pronoun at the end sounds perfectly
natural.
Here’s his example:
5. Kim can pick up Chris, but who will pick up me?

1. WHAT IS THE PURPOSE AF THE AUTHOR

a. To criticize Scott Thornsbury

2. What can the reader learn from the text:
a. That phrasal verbs are dynamic and can change its forms
b. That phrasal verbs have strict rules
c. That phrasal verbs are correct and incorrect
3. WHAT KIND OF TEXT WE CAN INFER IS THIS
a. A response letter
b. A magazine article
c. An online comment
4. THE EXPRESSION “there’s more to separable and inseparable phrasal
verbs than meets the eye”. MEANS:
a. That what we know about phrasal verbs can change accepting new forms
b. That we see the phrasal verbs with our eyes
c. That there are more separable and inseparable phrasal verbs in English.

MATCH THE TWO PARTS OF THE STATEMENT
Canary Islands Earthquake Could Trigger Monster Tsunami
by Susan Schlachter

ϭϯϰ
The eruption of a volcano in the Canary Islands could trigger a ''mega-tsunami''

that would devastate Atlantic coastlines with waves as high as 330 feet,
scientists said on Wednesday. They said an eruption of the Cumbre Vieja
volcano on La Palma, part of the Spanish island chain off West Africa, was likely
to cause a massive chunk of rock to break off, crashing into the sea and kicking
up huge walls of water higher than any other in recorded history.
The tsunami would be capable of traveling huge distances at up to 500 miles an
hour, the scientists said in a research paper to be published in September's
Geophysical Research Letters.
Simon Day, of the Benfield Greig Hazard Research Centre at the University
College of London, said that as the volcano was not erupting at present, the
short-term and medium-term risks were ''negligible.''
But Cumbre Vieja should be monitored closely for any signs of activity so that
emergency services could plan an effective response, he said.
''Eruptions of Cumbre Vieja occur at intervals of decades to a century or so and
there may be a number of eruptions before its collapse,'' said Day, who
collaborated on the research with Steven Ward of the University of California.
''Although the year-to-year probability of a collapse is therefore low, the resulting
tsunami would be a major disaster with indirect effects around the world.''
WEST SAHARA TO BEAR BRUNT
The effects would spread north, west and south of the Canaries, with the west
Sahara bearing the worst of the wave's energy.
The energy released by the collapse would be equal to the electricity
consumption of the entire United States in half a year.
Immediately after the landslide, a dome of water 93,000 feet high and tens of
miles wide would form, only to collapse and rebound.
As the landslide rubble moved deeper under water, a tsunami would develop.
Within 10 minutes, the tsunami would have moved a distance of almost 155
miles.
On the west Saharan shore, waves would probably reach heights of 330 feet.
Florida and the Caribbean, the final north Atlantic destinations to be affected by
the tsunami, would have to brace themselves for 165 foot waves some eight to
nine hours after the landslide.
Wave heights toward Europe would be smaller, but substantial waves would hit
the coasts of Britain, Spain, Portugal and France.
The research paper estimated water would penetrate several miles inland and
that the devastation would cause trillions of dollars in damage.
1.The "mega-tsunami" is
(a) an island.
(b) a volcano.
(c) a high wave
(d) canary.
2.What would be the result of a big rock falling into the sea?
(a) waves would be very high.
(b) the volcano would stop.
(c) walls would kick up a storm.
(d) it would fall into the sea.
3.How often does the volcano go off?
(a) every year.
(b) every 5 years to 9 years.
(c) every 10 to 100 years.

Activity 33
Topic: WISHES/ PASSIVE VOICE
Time: _____________________________________ Hours: _______________
WARM UP

Hold up a few things, such as a marker, pen, wallet, etc, and elicit the names and the
materials they are made from.
Teachers may, however, try to encourage natural responses using the passive voice:
S: It’s metal.
T: What’s it made of?
S: It’s made of metal.
Pair students and ask them to list as many things produced or made in Colombia as they
can. (Coffee, shoes, flowers, etc.,) A time limit of 1-2 minutes is probably good idea. This
will foster student collaboration and encourage more communication between them.
Have students share their lists with the class (you could introduce a point system of
sorts for original ideas as time or interest allows.)
Finally re-pair students and have them pool the contents of some of their own
possessions.
Get them to describe what materials these possessions are made from.
Teachers may wish to take this opportunity to point out to students that the above
statements can be followed by a by phrase with the agent or doer of the action.
Ex: My notebook was made in Colomba (by Norma) The keys are made of plastic, etc)
EXPRESSIVE PURPOSE
That I can improve my skills by the using of passive voice, in an oral and
written way.

ϭϯϲ

The Passive Voice is used in English when the person or thing that is receiving the action is
more important than the person or thing that is performing the action.
The structure of a sentence in the passive is as follows:
Object + To Be + Past Participle
Look at the structure of the following sentences in the active and the passive voice to
understand the difference in structure.
• I sent Christmas cards to all my friends. (Active)
• Christmas cards were sent to all my friends. (Passive)
• The earthquake destroyed the town last night. (Active)
• The town was destroyed last night. (Passive)
In these examples, you can see it is the action / result that is the most important factor in the
passive sentences.
1. When to use the Passive Voice

1. It is used when the person/thing performing the action is unimportant or unknown.
e.g. Our car was stolen last night.
2. It is used when it is obvious who/what is performing the action.
e.g. Cameron was sacked last week.
3. It is used to describe factual information, especially when describing a process.
e.g. The lasagna is baked in an oven for 35 minutes at 250 degrees Celsius.
4. It is used in news reports and to give instructions.
e.g. Five people were arrested at a nightclub last night.
While it is possible to use this structure in a large variety of tenses in English, you can not use
the passive in Future Continuous, Present Perfect Continuous, Past Perfect Continuous or
Future Perfect Continuous tenses.

Online Distance Learning

Online distance learning, that is an instructional system, connects learners with
educational resources. Students work on their own at home, at work, or at school and
communicate with faculty and other students via e-mail, electronic forums,
videoconferencing, chat rooms, bulletin boards, instant messaging and other forms of
computer-based communication. There are both advantages and disadvantages to
online distance learning.

There are many benefits to using online distance learning environments. Online
education is available all the time and anywhere. However there are drawbacks for
some learners. The online learner only has the written text and no other face to face
cues. This may confuse the learner and cause misunderstanding. While distance
learning allows for an openness, it is also cumbersome because it is done by e-mail
messages and writing and therefore may take more time than face-to-face learning.
The sheer bulk of messages can sometimes be overwhelming for many online
students.

Universities, Colleges and Schools use virtual online distance learning environments.
These are important for students who may be unable to attend classes for various
reasons like illnesses or busy everyday schedules. Some learners just want to further
their studies at home. They enjoy the convenience of home learning as they take
regular programs or enrichment classes.

Online courses keep learners very occupied at all hours of the day. There is a great
deal of messages and other online resources to read and respond to. Most learners
have regular jobs or attend regular school classes on ground as well. However, the
benefits are clear. Online distance learning is becoming very popular. Some virtual
online classes have become a profitable business as they replace regular traditional
means of learning.

Texting Trolls
Well, it happened once again. Tremor Troll had another crush. This time it was the new girl
in class, Tina Troll.
Tremor was very shy and reluctant to actually talk to a girl. “How can I introduce myself to
her?” he asked his close friend, Trogmire Troll.
“Send her a nice text message,” Trogmire suggested. “I can get her number from her friend,
Tammy Troll.
Tremor had gotten his first cell phone just two days earlier so this would be the perfect time
to enter the world of texting. “Great idea!” Tremor said, “I can think all day in school about what
I’ll say.”
The boys got together after school and Tremor was ready. “I’ll say, ‘Hi, I’m Tremor,’” he told
his friend.
Trogmire entered Tina’s number for Tremor and quickly typed and sent the message for him.
It seemed like forever to Tremor, but in less than a minute a response triggered a musical tone
from his phone.
“She sent me an answer!” Tremor gasped, shaking all over.
Trogmire, who considered himself to be a cell phone expert, said, “No, she sent you a reply!”
Tremor stared at the screen with a confused look. “This is hard to read,” he groaned.
“That’s because we texters use all kinds of shortcuts to make typing go faster,” Trogmire
explained. “Here, let me translate for you. It says, ‘Tremor, you are ugly and you smell bad too.’”
“Did she really say that?” Tremor asked.
“Yes, she really did,” Trogmire replied.
Tremor jumped up and shouted, “This is the happiest day of my life!”
And so, Tremor Troll and Tina Troll became good friends. But as things often go, true
romance did not blossom. Tremor’s crushes were always fleeting and Tina Troll was more
interested in her hobby, collecting rare bed bugs, than in having a serious relationship.

EXPRESSIVE PURPOSE
That I can improve my writing skills by the using of phrasal verbs, in an oral
and written way.

WRITING SKILLS TIPS
1. Draw up an outline, listing each item you need to discuss in your memo, letter, or report.
2. Put items in order -- from most to least important
3. Gather information to backup what you plan to say, or to help illustrate your points
4. If appropriate, get input from others who are involved in the project you're discussing
5. Write a brief summary of your entire memo -- this will be your first paragraph.
6. Expand on each item listed in step 1, to make up the body of the memo.
7. In your last paragraph tell the recipient if he or she needs to take any action.

Topic: PHRASAL VERBS/ READING
Time: Week: _____________________________________ Hours: 3
WARM UP
Tic-Tac-Toe
• This game works from grade school to college. Create a tic-tac-toe grid, and in
the middle of the grid place the topic of your paper. In the corresponding boxes,
place words or phrases that correspond to the topic. For example: the topic is
cancer, then the corresponding boxes could be symptoms, types of, diagnoses,
cures, etc. These boxes offer paragraph ideas to create an outline for your paper.
Timer
• Set a timer for 3 minutes and write nonstop for the entire time. If you find your
mind is blank, write a narrative from your pet's point of view. What you write is not
the end result, rather that you have written for the set amount of time. Next, set
the time for longer, 10 or 15 minutes, and either keep the story going or pick a
random topic. Once you find you are on a roll, move to your current project and
time your project in segments
EXPRESSIVE PURPOSE
That I can improve my writing and reading skills by the using of phrasal verbs,
in an oral and written way.

ϭϰϰ
READING STRATEGIES
Before Reading
Set a Purpose for Reading
Think if you will you be reading to find out what happens in a story or to learn specific
information.
Preview the Text
Look at the title, pictures, captions under pictures, headings, bold-faced print and other graphics.
Activate Background Knowledge
Think about what you already know about the content of what you will read.
Predict
Think what might happen in the story, what words may be used, or what information the text
might
contain.
During Reading
Cross-check
Check one cue with another. Ask yourself, "Does this word look right, sound right, and make
sense?"
Predict and Confirm
Ask yourself, "What word do I expect to see?", "What do I think will happen next?", "Did that
make
sense?", or "Am I finding the answers to my questions about this topic?"
Skip, Read On, and Go Back
Sometimes you can skip an unfamiliar word and read to the end of the sentence or paragraph,
thinking about what would make sense. Then, using the context, go back and reread to try to
determine the word.
Connect Background Knowledge to the Information in the Text
Think about what you already know about the subject and the kind of material you are reading.
Think
about how the information is similar to what you already know about the topic, event, or person
.Think About Explicit and Implicit Information
Think about what information is given directly. Also think about what you know from reading that
is
not directly stated.
.Stop and Review
If you are reading a longer text, stop and think about what has happened in the story so far or
what
information has been given.
After Reading
Retell and Summarize
Tell someone or write what happened in the story, including characters, plot, and important
events. If
you read a nonfiction piece, review what information was presented.
Use a Graphic Organizer
Use a story map, biography wheel, Venn diagram, or other way to show what was included in
what
you read. (You may need to check with your teacher for suggestions.)
Draw Conclusions
Think about what predictions you made before and during reading. Look back and think about
what
you have read. Consider how the information read relates to what you already knew about the
topic.
Were your questions answered? Do you have more questions about the subject?
Reread
Reread the text or a section of the text to help you understand it better.
Discuss and Respond

ϭϰϱ
Talk with someone about what you have read. Ask each other questions. Look back at the book
to
defend your opinions.
Write to Support Understanding
Write about what you have read, telling what it made you think of or what you learned.
Reading Strategies
By: John Erskin
These reading strategies will work both in and out of the classroom, but are particularly useful in
the classroom. If learned and applied daily, these reading strategies will help your students
improve both their reading comprehension and test scores. So let's begin.
NOTE: For the rest of this article I will use the second person pronoun 'you' rather than
the possessive adjective 'their' as a matter if convenience and because, if applied these
strategies will help anyone who wishes to improve their English.
Strategy 1: Ignore words that are unimportant.
Strategy 2: Use context to guess the meaning.
Strategy 3: Scan for specific information.
Strategy 4: Skim for general information.
Strategy 5: Read in units or chunks of words.

READING
Michael Moshier steps up and straps himself in and hopes to realize a dream.
Michael Moshier is the inventor of the Solo Trek, " So, to take off, the pilot would
increase the throttle, machine would lift off."
Someday soon, Moshier or a test pilot will fire up the 120 horsepower engine of the twin
fan Solo Trek, and if things go as planned, fly above the rooftops like an action hero.
Michael Moshier says of his invention, "You have unrestricted visibility and actually,
when it flies fast, it will lean forward slightly so you're out there, in the air, flying, much
like Superman, might fly, as an analogy, and I dream of this every night."
It may seem odd that a former navy jet fighter pilot could be inspired by the fantasy of
simple, one-person flight, a la the Jetsons on t-v.
Or the actual but never quite practical rocket belt.
Michael Moshier, "I look at the jet belt and the rocket belt that was developed 20, 30
years ago, and I say, where's the follow up product? Where is something that works that
I can have?"
Not that inventors haven't tried to make it easy for ordinary folks to fly.
Paul Moller's [has] been working on his flying car for 30 years, and now says it's ready
for tests. It would take off and land vertically, go 600 miles an hour, and deliver 20 miles
to the gallon. A computer would do the actual flying. He says it could be on the market
next year with a sticker price of about a million dollars.
NASA just signed on with Moshier to help develop his flying machine. The first uses are
likely to be military.
It's been 50-years since Robert Fulton invented his airphibian, a flying car. It flew, and
ultimately landed in the Smithsonian Museum. But never found its way into any family
garage. Getting dreams to fly is never easy.

EXPRESSIVE PURPOSE
That I can improve my writing and reading skills by the using of phrasal verbs,
in an oral and written way.

A phrasal verb is a verb plus a particle such as down, into, out or up.
The meaning of a phrasal verb is different from the meaning of its parts.
Separable phrasal verbs can take objects before or after the

particle. If the object is a pronoun, it always appears before the
particle.
• A friend is someone who brings out the best in you.

• A friend is someone who brings the best out in you.
• A friend is someone who cheers you up when you’re feeling
bad.
With inseparable phrasal verbs, the object cannot go between the

verb and the particle.
• Good friends are always happy to help when you run into a
problem.
Three- word phrasal verbs have a particle and a preposition.
• Make new friends, but hang on to the old ones.
Intransitive phrasal verbs don’t take objects.
• True friends don’t drift apart

ϭϰϵ
Look at the warm up activity again. Can you find more phrasal verbs? Which are
separable, inseparable and/or three words verbs? Which are also intransitive? Write
them in the chart.
Separable Inseperable Three- words verbs Intransitive

%ULQJRXW
Complete the questions below with the phrasal verbs and objects in parentheses.
Sometimes more than one answer is possible.
Ă͘ Have you ever had a friend who brought out the worst/ brought the
worst out (bring out/ the worst) in you?
ď͘ Have you ever ____________________________(run into/ a friend) that

you hadn’t seen in a long time?
Đ͘ Do you usually ________________________________ (stand up for/ your

friends) when other people criticize them?
Ě͘ Can you _______________________________(do without / a cell phone

and still keep in touch with friends?
Ğ͘ When friends ask you for a favor, do you usually say yes, or do you
_________________________( turn down / them)
Ĩ͘ Do you _______________________________( hang on to / your old

friends), or do you drift apart as time goes by?
Ő͘ Some people like to ____________________________( put down/ their

friends) by insulting them. How would you feel if a friend did that to you?
3DLUZRUN
3DLUZRUN discuss the next question : have you ever had a friend who
brought out the worst in you?
Yes, I once had a really messy roommate. She made me so angry.

ϭϱϬ
Additional phrasal verbs
Separable: call of, count out, cut off, get across, hand over, pass up, see
through, take back.
Inseparable: go over, hang around, live up to, look after, pick on, run out of,
touch on.
Intransitive: catch on, come along, come over, fall apart, show up, turn out.
Certain intransitive two-word phrasal verbs, when followed by a
preposition, can then take an object.
Back down (from) cut back (on) drop out (of) give in (to)
Catch up ( to) cut down (on) get along (with) give up (on)
Check out (of) drop in (on) get away (with) look back (on)
When confronted with an argument. Mark never backs down

Marck never backs down from an argument.
Underline the phrasal verb in each sentence. Is the verb separable (s) or
inseparable (I)? is it transitive (T) or intransitive (NT)? Write the correct letters.
S, T 1. The referees called the soccer match off due to heavy rain.
____2. Jessica asked me to come over to her house for dinner.
____3. Sometime I find it hard to live up to my parents’ expectations.
____4. Sally insulted me yesterday, but today she took back her remark.
____5. When entertaining, there’s nothing worse than running out of food at your party.
____6. When Mark gave me the chance to share his apartment, I couldn´t pass up the

Complete the sentences with intransitive phrasal verbs an preposition from the
grammar box above. Be sure to use the correct form of the verb.
1. When my grandfather and I go jogging together, I sometimes need to stop

and wait for him to catch up to me.
