Temas: future, gerund and infinitive Logros: Read about people’s strengths and weaknesses Ask and answer different questions in a reading text INSTRUCCIONES 1. Read and understand the theory about future tenses, after that do the activities EXPRESSING FUTURE will One of the most common ways to talk about the future is with will, for example: I will call you tonight. We often call this the "future simple tense", but technically there are no future tenses in English. In this construction, the word will is a modal auxiliary verb.Here are the three main ways that we use will to talk about the future. No plan We use will when there is no prior plan or decision to do something before we speak. We make the decision at the time of speaking. Look at these examples:  Hold on. I'll get a pen.  We will see what we can do to help you.  Maybe we'll stay in and watch television tonight. In these examples, we had no firm plan before speaking. The decision was made at the time of speaking. We often use will with the verb think:  I think I'll go to the gym tomorrow.  I think I'll have a holiday next year.  I don't think I'll buy that car. Prediction We often use will to make a prediction about the future. Again, there is no firm plan. We are saying what we think will happen. Here are some examples:  It will rain tomorrow.  People won't go to Jupiter before the 22nd century.  Who do you think will get the job? be The verb be is an exception with will. Even when we have a very firm plan, and we are not speaking spontaneously, we can use will with be. Look at these examples:  I will be in London tomorrow.  There will be 50 people at the party.  The meeting will be at 9.30 am. going to Intention We use the special going to construction when we have the intention to do something before we speak. We have already made a decision before speaking. Look at these examples: Carrera 19 Nº13B bis -38 - Teléfono Fax: 570 89 37 - Valledupar – Cesar – E-mail: [email protected] www.iecasdvalledupar.edu.co

  

I have won $1,000. I am going to buy a new TV. We're not going to see my mother tomorrow. When are you going to go on holiday? In these examples, we had an intention or plan before speaking. The decision was made before we spoke. Prediction We often use going to to make a prediction about the future. Our prediction is based on evidence. We are saying what seems sure to happen. Here are some examples:  The sky is very black. It is going to snow.  It's 8.30! You're going to miss the train!  I crashed the company car. My boss isn't going to be very happy! In these examples, the present situation (black sky/the time/damaged car) gives us a good idea of what is going to happen.  We use will for prediction when we have no real evidence: "It will rain tomorrow." (It's my feeling but I can't be sure.)  We use going to for prediction when there is some real evidence: "It's going to rain." (There's a big, black cloud in the sky and if it doesn't rain I'll be very surprised.) Present Continuous for Plan We often use the present continuous tense to talk about the future. Of course, we normally use the present continuous to talk about action happening in the present, but if we add a future word, we can use it to talk about the future. (By "future word" we mean words or expressions like tomorrow, next week, in June. The future word may be clearly expressed or understood from the context.) Sometimes there is no real difference between an intention (going to) and a plan (present continuous). In this case, it doesn't matter which we use.  We're going to paint the bedroom tomorrow.  We're painting the bedroom tomorrow. We use the present continuous only when a plan exists before we speak. Look at these examples:  Mary is taking her music exam next year.  They can't play tennis with you tomorrow. They're working.  We're going to the theatre on Friday. Present Simple for Schedule When an event is on a schedule or timetable (for example, the take-off time for a plane), we often use the present simple to express the future. We usually also use a future phrase (expressed or understood) like tomorrow, at 6.30pm, next week. Only a few verbs are used in this way, for example:  be, open, close, begin, start, end, finish, arrive, come, leave, return Look at these sentences:  The train leaves Detroit at 9pm tonight.  John starts work next week.  Tomorrow is Thursday.

READING COMPREHENSION TEXT THE IMPORTANCE OF ENGLISH British or American, the language is basically the same, and its global stature is backed up by massive English-language training programs, an international business that in textbooks, language courses, tape cassettes, video programs and computerized instruction — is worth hundreds of millions of pounds or dollars to the economies of the US and the UK. The English language is now one of Britain’s most reliable exports. In the ironic words of the novelist Malcolm Bradbury, it is an ideal British product, ‘needing no workers and no work, no assembly lines and no assembly, no spare parts and very little servicing, it is used for the most intimate and the most public services everywhere. We call it the English language ...‘Dr Robert Burchfield, former Chief Editor of the Oxford English Dictionary, has remarked that ‘any literate, educated person on the face of the globe is deprived if he does not know English’. The first level of the global sway of English is to be found in those countries, formerly British colonies, in which English as a second language has become accepted as a fact of cultural life that cannot be wished away. In Nigeria, it is an official language; in Zambia, it is recognized as one of the state languages; in Singapore, it is the major language of government, the legal system and education. 1. Answer the following questions using your own words a. Is the teaching of the English language worth a lot of money? b. According to Bradbury, what is the difference between the English language and Traditional industry? Are the following statements true or false? a. Dr. R. Burchfield is not the Chief Editor of the Oxford English Dictionary currently. ___ b. Malcom Bradbury is a novelist that works at an assembly line. ___ 3. Find a word or phrase in the text which, in context, is similar in meaning to a. Essentially: ____________________ b. That can be trusted: ____________________ 4. Choose a, b or c in each question below. Only one choice is correct. 1. The English Language a. is a good source of money for UK and USA. b. is not a good source of money for UK and USA. 2. The English Language Carrera 19 Nº13B bis -38 - Teléfono Fax: 570 89 37 - Valledupar – Cesar – E-mail: [email protected] www.iecasdvalledupar.edu.co

A gerund is a noun made from a verb. To make a gerund, you add "-ing" to the verb. For example: In the sentence "I swim every day", the word "swim" is a verb. In the sentence "I like swimming", the word "swimming" is a noun. Therefore, "swimming" is a gerund Second example: In the sentence "She reads several books a week", the word "read" is a verb. In the sentence "Reading is important", the word "reading" is a noun. Therefore, "reading" is a gerund. More examples of gerunds: buying, fishing, running, watching, telling, and so forth. The word "gerund" actually comes from the Latin word gerere, which means "do". You could say this actually makes sense: the gerund describes an action, something you do. Gerunds are often used when actions are real or completed. Examples: (Note how the main underlined verb relates to real or completed actions.)  She stopped smoking.  I finished doing my homework.  They keep on fighting.  We discussed moving to Florida.  You recommended waiting until tomorrow.

 He recalled falling asleep on the couch. She practices playing those drums all the time. John finished fixing the car. The job involves dealing with animals. Brian mentioned staying up late. They suggested not keeping the luggage. We started working on this yesterday.

WHAT IS AN INFINITIVE? An infinitive is the basic form of the verb + "to". Examples: to buy, to fish, to run, to watch, to tell, and so forth. Example Sentences: "I want to swim." "They asked us to leave." "To be, or not to be – that is the question." "The goal is to win." The word "infinitive" comes from the Latin word infinitus, from in- (not) and finitus (finished, limited). You could say this actually makes sense: the infinitive describes an action, but unlike a regular verb, it is not limited in any way. The regular verb is limited to the tense and subject. For example, in the sentence "Diana danced" the action is limited to Diana and to the past. However, the infinitive is unlimited. In the sentence "To dance is easy", the action is not limited to any subject or to any time. Infinitives are often used when actions are unreal, general, or future. Examples: (Note how the main underlined verb relates to unreal, general, or future actions.)            

Kate agreed to come. I hope to see you soon. We plan to finish this shortly. They decided to return home. She promised to stop smoking. We agreed never to talk about it again. He offered to sell the house. I refuse to pay! You seem to be disappointed. She asked him not to leave. I want to drink. They need to get up early.

The basic difference between gerunds and infinitives is the following: Using a gerund suggests that you are referring to real activities or experiences. Using an infinitive suggests that you are talking about potential or possible activities or experiences. So let's say you eat ice cream every day. This is an actual action you are doing. Then you could say: "I like eating ice cream". On the other hand, if you are on a diet, and you don't usually eat ice cream, then you are talking about a potential action. You could say: "I like to eat ice cream." When used before the main verb, gerunds tend to sound more like natural English. For example, the sentence "Playing tennis is a lot of fun" sounds more natural than "To play tennis is a lot of fun". The latter sentence sounds more theoretical. After the main verb, both gerunds and infinitives can be used. The main verb in the sentence determines whether you use a gerund or an infinitive. So when you need to decide which one to use, first check whether the main verb is limited only to gerunds, or only to infinitives. If the verb is not on any of the lists, you can use the following guidelines: The word "go" + sports or recreational activities usually take a gerund. Examples: "Let's go shopping", "They went skiing". 

After a preposition you should use a gerund. Examples: "I will talk with you before going to lunch", "I am looking forward to working with you".



Expressions with the words "have", "spend" and "waste" take a gerund. Examples: "She had fun skiing", "He wasted all his time worrying".



In many cases, the infinitive form is used to show the intention or purpose. Examples: "We are here to help", "He left to catch the train".



The infinitive form is also used to show the reason. Examples: "We were sad to hear about your difficulties", "She was shocked to learn the truth".



If none of these guidelines apply, simply use the principle in Part I above. Does it describe a concrete action? Then use a gerund. Carrera 19 Nº13B bis -38 - Teléfono Fax: 570 89 37 - Valledupar – Cesar – E-mail: [email protected] www.iecasdvalledupar.edu.co

COMPARATIVES AND SUPERLATIVES Comparative is the name for the grammar used when comparing two things. The two basic ways to compare are using as .. as or than.      

      

She's twice as old as her sister. He's not as stupid as he looks! I'm almost as good in maths as in science. This book is not as exciting as the last one. The cafeteria is not as crowded as usual. Russian is not quite as difficult as Chinese. This computer is better than that one. She's stronger at chess than I am. It's much colder today than it was yesterday. Our car is bigger than your car. This grammar topic is easier than most others. I find science more difficult than mathematics. Today's ESL lesson was more interesting than usual.

When comparing with as .. as, the adjective does not change. When comparing with than, however, some changes are necessary, depending on the number of syllables the adjective has: 1-syllable adjectives: add -er to the adjective 

My sister is much taller than me.



It's colder today than it was yesterday.

Note: If the word ends: consonant-vowelconsonant, then the last consonant is usually doubled in the comparative. Examples: big-bigger, fat-fatter, hot-hotter. 2-syllable adjectives ending in -y: change the -y to -ier   

She's looking happier today. This grammar topic is easier than the last one. Why is everyone else luckier than me? †

Beware: Do not confuse adjectives and adverbs. 2-syllable adverbs ending in y must be compared with the word more. Example: I drive more quickly (quicklier) than my brother. Other 2-syllable adjectives: use more with the unchanged adjective   

The shops are always more crowded just before Christmas. Is there anything more boring than reading about grammar? My sister is more careful with her writing than I am with mine.

Note: The comparative of some shorter 2syllable adjectives can be formed with -er. Examples:simple-simpler, clever-cleverer, narrow-narrower. To be sure which comparative method to use, you will need to consult a good dictionary.

Adjectives with 3 or more syllables: use more with the unchanged adjective    

Russian grammar is more difficult than English grammar. My sister is much more intelligent than me.† I find maths lessons more enjoyable than science lessons. The older you get, the more irritating you become.

In the superlative you talk about one thing only and how it is the best, worst, etc. You do not compare two things. The following guidelines apply to the superlative: 1-syllable adjectives: add -est to the adjective (plus the)  

My sister is the tallest in our family. Yesterday was the coldest day of the year so far.

Note: If the word ends: consonant-vowelconsonant, then the last consonant is usually doubled in the superlative. Examples: big-biggest, fat-fattest, hothottest. 2-syllable adjectives ending in -y: change the -y to -iest (plus the)   

The richest people are not always the happiest. Which do you think is the easiest language to learn? She's the luckiest person I know.

Beware: Do not confuse adjectives and adverbs. 2-syllable adverbs ending in y form their superlative with the words the most. Example: Of all the people I know my father drives the most quickly (quickliest).

Other 2-syllable adjectives: use the most with the unchanged adjective  

The most boring thing about ESL class is doing grammar exercises. My sister is the most careful person I know.

Note: The superlative of some shorter 2syllable adjectives can be formed with -er. Examples:simple-simplest, clever-cleverest, narrow-narrowest. To be sure which superlative method to use, you will need to consult a good dictionary. Adjectives with 3 or more syllables: use the most with the unchanged adjective    

Some people think that Russian is the most difficult language. Albert Einstein was the most intelligent person in history. My most enjoyable class is English. You are the most irritating person I have ever met!
