39 The passive The passive Rule: Form the passive with the verb to be and the past participle of the verb.

41 The passive It is not important to say who does something: e.g. Spanish is spoken in many South American countries. If we want to say who does something use by e.g. Mandarin Chinese is spoken by over a billion people. Usage: Use the passive Move important information (the object of the active sentence) to the beginning. e.g. Two men are being questioned by the police.

42 The passive Want to be impersonal and not mention the name of the person who performs the action. Often use the passive in scientific or technical processes. e.g. Oil and gas are found beneath the ground or sea. When it is obvious who performed the action, e.g. teachers, or we don t want to use a general subject e.g. people, they. e.g. Aztec boys were trained to fight.

Transitive Subject Verb Object I lost my wallet on the way to school. Intransitive Subject Verb Object I swim - every day.

45 Transitive and Intransitive Use BY When it is important to know the agent or person who performed the action. e.g. Some countries have been harmed by tourism. Only when it is really necessary. e.g. The two men were arrested. (by the police - this is obvious)

49 Unit 4 Targeting the customer First conditional Rule: I ll the short form of I will The negative form is I won t First conditional sentences describe REAL situation things that can or might happen.

51 First conditional Future Possibility + Result If we don t hurry, we won t finish. Can Reverse the Order of First Conditional e.g. If we don t hurry, we won t finish. We won t finish if we don t hurry. Usage: Use First Conditionals in offers and suggestions e.g. If you need a ticket, I can get you one. If you feel like seeing the sights, we can take a bus tour.

70 Defining Relative Clauses Defining Relative Clauses Rule: Defining relative clauses give us more information about people or things. Defining relative clauses about People begin with WHO or THAT Things begin with WHICH or THAT

71 Defining Relative Clauses When the relative pronoun is the Subject When the relative pronoun is the Object Use Who, Which, or That We can Leave It Out. Again! Relative clauses can refer to the subject of the sentence or the object. They behave in different ways. In Object clauses, it is possible to leave out the relative pronoun which/ that.

72 Defining Relative Clauses e.g Glaciers are rivers of ice which form in cold climates on mountains. The amount of fresh water (that) glaciers contain is greater than all other lakes and rivers on Earth. Subject: which form is cold climates This refers to glaciers, the subject of form. Object: that glaciers contain This refers to water, the object of contain. NOTE that in a subject clause there is never a subject pronoun after the relative pronoun.

73 Defining Relative Clauses e.g. Glaciers are rivers of ice. They form in cold climates on mountains. Glaciers are rivers of ice which they form in cold climates on mountains.

74 Defining Relative Clauses Subject: Who or That Use who/ that refer to people in subject relative clauses. When we refer to a named person generally use WHO, and THAT in informal speech and writing. e.g. Charles Dickens was the novelist who wrote David Copperfield. Louis Agassiz was the first scientist who argued that there had been an Ice Age in the past.

75 Defining Relative Clauses Subject: Which or That Use which/ that refer to things in subject relative clauses. e.g. Last week I bought a new computer which is much faster than the old one. In 1840 Agassiz published Etudes sur les glaciers which was the first book to describe the movements of glaciers and the way they changed the landscape.

76 Defining Relative Clauses Object: Who, That, or Zero Use who/ that in an object relative clause when refer to people e.g. He is one of the scientists who/ that I admire most. It is possible to Leave out the relative pronoun in this kind of sentence. e.g. He is one of the scientists I admire most.

77 Defining Relative Clauses Object: Which, That, or Zero Use which/ that in an object relative clause when refer to things e.g. This is Pickwick Papers, one of the first books which/ that Dickens wrote. It is possible to Leave out the relative pronoun in this kind of sentence. e.g. This is Pickwick Papers, one of the first books Dickens wrote.

78 Unit 7 Future Trends Will and Going to for Future Rule: When we talk about a Prediction for the Future Use Will + Verb When we talk about a Definite plan for the Future Use Be going to + Verb

79 So that and In order to So that and In order to Use for express the purposes to say why we do things. So that + Noun /Pronoun e.g. Eva is going to the US so that she can improve her English. In order to + Verb e.g. Eva is going to the US in order to improve her English.

80 Will and Going to for Future Again! General: Will Use to talk about facts in the future Use to talk about the details and comments e.g. I will be twenty next Friday. The spacecraft will come down in the Pacific Ocean tomorrow morning. In the meal of next Friday, there will be about ten of us. Oh, that will be nice.

81 Will and Going to for Future Be going to Use for an intention, something we have already decided to do. e.g. We are going to have a meal. Tom is going to sell his car.

84 Will and Going to for Future Predictions Will Use for a prediction about the future e.g. I think United will win the game. One day people will travel to Mars. Be going to Use for a prediction when we see from the present situation what is going to happen in the future. e.g. There is not a cloud in the sky. It s going to be a lovely day. This bag is not very strong. It s going to break.

85 Unit 8 When things go wrong Second conditional Rule: Second Conditional sentences describe UNREAL Situations Things that can t or Probably WON T HAPPEN. Use WOULD + a Verb in the Main Clause and the PAST Tense in the IF clause. Sometimes use WERE instead of WAS. e.g. If he were here, he would solve the problem right away.

86 Second conditional Note: We can omit the comma. e.g. If it wasn t so urgent, I wouldn t call you. (with comma) I wouldn t call you if it wasn t so urgent. (without comma)

87 Second conditional Form: If + Past Simple + would If I ate cake, I would get fat. If we didn t have a car, we would find it difficult to get about. If Rachel got up earlier, she wouldn t always be late.

88 Second conditional In a second conditional if-clause we sometimes use were instead of was, especially in the clause If I were you. e.g. If I were you, I would ask a lawyer for some advice. The main clause often has would, can also use could or might e.g. If we had a calculator, we could work this out a lot quicker. If Rachel worked harder, she might do even better at her studies. The If-clause usually comes first, but it can come after the main clause. e.g. If I knew, I would tell you. I would tell you if I knew.

89 Second conditional Use for something UNREAL e.g. If I had a million pound, I would probably buy a yacht. The sentence If I had a million pound means that in real life I haven t really got a million pounds, but I m imagine that I have. Use for an offer and suggestion e.g. If you needed a ticket, I could get you one. If you felt like seeing the sights, we could take a bus tour. Note: The second conditional is less direct than the first conditional. The speaker is less sure that you want to see the sights.

90 Adverbs that modify adjectives Adverbs that modify adjectives Rule: Adverbs that modify adjectives come BEFORE the Adjectives. Adverbs like very, really, extremely, and etc. are used to make adjectives or adverbs stronger. e.g. I think this film is really terrible. Everyone has worked extremely carefully.

91 Easily Confused words Easily Confused words Accept and Except Accept is Verb Except means BUT NOT e.g. I can accept most of your suggestions except the first one. Advice and Advise Advise is Verb Advice is Noun e.g. He advised me to save my money and I took his advice.

96 Reflexive Pronouns and Each Other Usage Use a reflexive pronoun after Preposition e.g. The children are old enough to look after themselves. Can also be used when it is desired to emphasize a personal pronoun. e.g. I myself saw what happened. Did he solve the problem himself? But after preposition of place can use me, you, him, etc. e.g. In the mirror I saw a lorry behind me. Mike didn t have any money with him.

97 Reflexive Pronouns and Each Other Each Other Each other refer to persons or things which are acting on each other. Both phrases may be used to refer to either persons or things. e.g. You and I saw each other last week. The houses faced each other.
