When comparing two things, we put thanthanthanthan between the adjective and the thing being compared.
When we compare two things or people we look at what makes them different from each
other.
The man on the left is taller than the man on the right.
A car is faster than a bicycle.
Comparative adjectives are used to show what quality one thing has more or less than the other. They normally come before any other adjectives.

Activity 3 Answer these exercises. Write all of your answers on the line and then check your answers with a partner. Ask your teacher for help, if needed. My grandfather had a very exciting life. When he was young, he _____________________ (live) in Bacadehuachi an old town from Sonora. His parents _____________________ (raise) cattle, and he _____________________ (look) after the cows. When he was eighteen, he went to university, where he _____________________ (study) Philosophy. He also _____________________ (play) the guitar in a mariachi band. When the war started, he had to go live in the USA, he _____________________ (try) to join the Air Force, but he _____________________ (end) up in the Navy. In the Atlantic, a German torpedo _____________________ (rip) a hole in the side of his ship, and the
ship sank. Only five men _____________________ (escape). They _____________________ (sail) in a lifeboat back to USA. Then he met my grandmother, and they _____________________ (marry) after only three weeks of meeting. He says now that he _____________________ (want) to marry her very quickly in case he _____________________ (die) in the war. Complete the sentences by changing verbs in parenthesis to Simple Past Simple Past Simple Past Simple Past then change the sentences to interrogative form. Example: Enedina surfed the Internet? (to surf) Answer: Did she surf the Internet? 1) I __________________________________________________ my Math’s homework yesterday. (to do)
________________________________________________________________________________________ ?
2) Helen ________________________________________________________ to Guadalajara by plane? (to go)
________________________________________________________________________________________ ?
2) They ___________________________________________________ a Magdalena two weeks ago. (to visit)
________________________________________________________________________________________ ?
3) Jesus and Pedro ____________________________________________________ their brother. (not/to help)
________________________________________________________________________________________ ?
Pay attention to the use of “Did”/”Didn’t” for interrogative and negative form which means that the sentence is already in the past. So, it isn’t necessary to add –ed to the main verb. You don’t say “I didn’t worked”, but “I didn’t work!” You don’t say “Did you worked?” but “Did you work?”

Here are some of the situations you can use imperatives.
Orders
Close the door!
Stand up!
Sit down!
Open your books!
Instructions
To make a cup of coffee:
- Boil some water
- Put some coffee in a cup
- Add some boiling water
- Drink the coffee.
Directions
To go to the bank
Turns left at Orchard Street, and then go
straight.
Offers and Invitations
Have some tea
Come over to our house sometime.
Let's
The verb let is often used as an imperative
to give strong suggestions. Let's is a contraction of let us.
For example:
Let's go home!
Let's watch a movie!
We can use the
imperative to give a
direct order.
Take that chewing gum out of your mouth.
Stand up straight.
Give me the details.
We can use the
imperative to give
instructions.
Open your book.
Take two tablets every
evening.
Take a left and then a
right.
We can use the
imperative to make an invitation.
Come in and sit down. Make
yourself at home.
Please start without me. I'll be there shortly.
Have a piece of this cake. It's delicious.
We can use the
imperative on signs and
notices. Push!.
Do not use it!.
Insert one dollar!.
We can use the imperative to give friendly
informal advice:
Speak to him. Tell him how you feel.
Have a quiet word with her
about it. Don't go.
Stay at home and rest up. Get some sleep and recover.
We can make the imperative 'more
polite' by adding
'do'. Do be quiet.
Do come. Do sit down.
Imperatives are used to give orders or suggestions. For example: "Come here!" or "Have a cookie". Imperatives almost always have no subject, and the second person is usually implied as the subject instead. For example "Come here!" implies the subject "(you) Come here!”

What are Modal Verbs?
Modal verbs are special verbs which behave very differently from normal verbs. Here are some important differences:
Common Modal Verbs
Can Could May Might Must
Ought to Shall Should Will
Would
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.
Main Points To Remember
A. Modals come first in a verb group.
B. All modals (except ought) are followed by the base form of the verb.
C. Ought is followed by a “to” infinitive.
D. Modals have only one form - they don't change from first, to second, to third person like other verbs.
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
A.A.A.A. Modals are always the first word in a verb group. I should go visit them. I think it will be rather boring. Things could have been so different.
B.B.B.B. Ought is always followed by a “to”-infinitive. She ought to go out with Tom. Sam ought to have taken his medicine. You ought to be doing this, not me.
C.C.C.C. All modals except for ought are followed by the base form of a verb. I should go visit them. I think it will rain tomorrow. Things could have been better. Someone may have seen them. They might be home tomorrow. They may be late. They should have known. He can come by anytime.
D.D.D.D. There is no “s” form for the third person singular of the present tense modal verbs. Also, there is no “-ing” or “-ed” forms. She can't help him now. I'm sure he can do it tomorrow. She ought to have called him yesterday. They might be home tomorrow. They may be late. They should have known. He can come by anytime.

�Reading: Distracted Driving
A driver’s responsibility is to operate a vehicle safely and to pay attention to the road and the other vehicles. Most people think about cell phones when they think about distractions for divers because cell phones have received the most attention. However, there are many other distractions that can make a driver lose control and cause an accident. Because there are many drive up restaurants, drivers eat more often in their cars. According to an insurance company report, eating while driving causes more accidents in the morning, when people on their way to work. If you have to eat in your car, avoid hot liquids like coffee and messy foods like hamburgers and sandwiches. You should drink out of a closed container or take a bite when you come to a full stop. Other passengers can distract a driver, too. According to AAA, the American Automobile association, babies distract drivers more than adult passengers do. When babies are in the car drivers tend to turn around and comfort the babies if they start to cry, if you have babies or young children in your car, you should not feed, dress, or play with them while you are driving. Cars have radios, CD players, lights, air conditioners, and heaters. Each item has a control dial or knob that requires some attention, but you should not make adjustments, like changing your CD, while you are driving. In fact, ten states already have warnings about radios in their driver’s manuals. You should make adjustments in your car before you leave home. Another distraction can be stress. Drivers who have arguments with family members at home or with someone at work will get into their cars angry. They may drive more aggressively or be distracted by thinking about their argument. Sometimes an argument inside the car can cause a driver to stop paying attention to the road. If you are feeling very upset or angry, you should try to relax before you get into your car. If you are driving on a busy road and something makes you so upset that you cannot concentrate on driving, you should pull over to the side of the road. Take a moment to calm down before you continue and you will have a much saber trip.
1. Cell phones distract drivers from the road.
2. More people drive and eat at night than in the morning.
3. You should never drink soda in the car.
4. Hot liquids are dangerous to drink while driving.
5. Babies distract drivers more than adults do.
6. Drivers should not feed their babies in the car.
7. All states in U.S. have warnings about radios in their driver’s manuals.
8. Drivers should adjust their radios before they start the car.
9. You should not drive when you are very angry.
Read and circle T for true and F for false.

Note:Note:Note:Note: In everyday speech (when people talks), 'going to'going to'going to'going to'''' is often shortened to ''''gonnagonnagonnagonna',',',', especially in American English.
There is no 'future tense' in English.

(It's my feeling but I can't be sure.) We use going togoing togoing togoing 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.)

Teenagers’ life and their future
� Start up activities Read these statistics about teenagers drug use in high school in the United States. Then discuss the questions. Percent (%) of high school seniors who think people risk harming themselves with drug use, 2000-2008
In 2007, 22% of all students in grades 9 through 12 reported someone has
offered, sold, or given them an illegal drug on school property. There is no
measurable change with the percentage of students who reported that drugs
are offered, sold, or given to them at school between 2003 and 2007. Males are
more likely than females to report that drugs are offered, sold, or given to them
on school property in each survey year between 1993 and 2007. In 2007, 26%
of males and 19% of females reported availability of drugs.
Here Are Some Facts About Teens & Drugs: In the United States, 13.2 million
students between the ages of twelve and seventeen become new users of
tobacco, alcohol and other drugs. And according to the Institute for Social
Research (ISR) at the University of Michigan, 50% of American children have
used illicit drugs by the time that they are seniors in high school. In another
recent study involving more than 50,000 high school students, ISR researchers
found that 77% had used alcohol, 54% had smoked cigarettes, and 51% had
used an illicit drug (including 46% who had used marijuana, 15% had used an
amphetamine and 11% had used inhalants).

Read the differences between willwillwillwill and going togoing togoing togoing to. Resource centre / English grammar / Will and going to
Will and going to are the two most common ways of expressing the future.
While they are similar in many aspects, there are three differences:
Predictions expressed by "going to" are based on what's happening at the
present moment.
1) Predictions
Predictions expressed by "will" are based on your intuition and experience.
2)
"Going to" usually refers to the near future. While will
doesn't refer to any specific moment (it may sometimes concern very far future).
3) Intention
This is a subtle difference but it is noticable: if
someone uses the "going to" form, the person is often talking about his or her
intentions. In other words, there is an ephasis on the
intention of doing something.
AffirmativeAffirmativeAffirmativeAffirmative I will travel You will travel He/she/it will travel We will travel You will travel (pl.) They will travel
