statements with be; countries and nationalities).

NAMES

FULL NAME: Christopher Torres

FIRST NAME: Christopher

NICKNAME: Chris

Nicknames are usually the short form of names. According to the Cambridge Advanced Learner’s Dictionary a nickname is “an

informal name for someone or something, especially a name which you are called by your friends or family, usually based on your proper name or your character.” What do people usually call you? Do you have any special nickname?

TITLES TITLES SINGLE MARRIED

MALES Mr. √ √ Ms. √ √ Miss √ FEMALES

Mrs. √ (single = not married)

Titles are always used with a last name. They can also be used with full names; but they are not used with first names. Examples: - Oscar Gomez is a single man. He is Mr. Gomez. - Jason Harris is a married man. He is Mr. Harris. - Janet Miller is a single woman. She is Miss Miller or Ms. Miller. - Sabrina Martin is a married woman. She is Mrs. Martin or Ms. Martin.

- Hi. How are you?

These greetings are more informal. - How are you doing? - How’s it going? - What’s up?

INTRODUCING YOURSELF

In business and formal situations, we usually use our full names when we introduce ourselves. But we use our first names in informal situations.

Examples: 1. A: Good morning. My name is Richard Southern.

B: Nice to meet you, Mr. Southern. I’m Alice Sullivan. A: It’s nice to meet you, too, Ms. Sullivan.

2. A: Hi. I’m Jack.

B: And I’m Lily. Good to meet you. A: Nice to meet you, too.

INTRODUCING OTHER PEOPLE

When we introduce other people, we usually use the expression “this is…” Examples: 1. CINDY: Bob, this is Mary Ritter. She’s our new classmate.

BOB: It’s nice to meet you, Mary. I’m Robert Harris. MARY: Nice to meet you, too.

1. Making invitations and excuses (would; verb + to + verb)

MAKING INVITATIONS

We usually use the modal “would” to make invitations. Look at the example: Example: Would you like to see a movie with me on Saturday night?

Yes, I would. I would = I’d

I would like = I’d like I would love = I’d love

Yes, I’d love to. Yes, I’d really like to go. I’d like to, but I have to work late. I’d love to, but I need to save money. I’d like to, but I want to visit my parents.

Remember that when two verbs are together (as in “Would you LIKE TO SEE...”), TO has to separate both verbs.

Example: I need to study.

I want to rest, etc.

TALKING ABOUT FAMILIES When we want to describe the activities that members of our families are doing, we use the Present Continuous tense. Example: My mom is traveling in Europe right now.

A. Affirmative sentences - My sister is looking for a part-time job. - My grandparents are staying in my house this week. B. Negative sentences - I’m not working in my office this week. - My father is not working now. He needs a job.



C. Interrogative sentences - Are you still living with your parents? - What are your parents doing these days? - Where is your brother working now?

But there is a big difference between the things that are happening in this moment and the things that usually happens. When we talk about habitual actions we use the Simple Present tense.

Look at these examples:

- What does your sister do? → She is a secretary. She works in an office. (Simple Present)

- What is your sister doing? → She’s taking a course in Business this month. (Present Continuous)

CLASE 14


Describen hechos de la vida familiar desde el punto de vista estadístico

1. Facts about typical families 2. Quantifiers (All, most, many, a lot of, no one, etc.)

FACTS ABOUT TYPICAL FAMILIES

When we want to talk about facts in different aspects of our lives (like statistical results from surveys about “Marriages in Chile”, “Travelling tendencies in summer”, etc.) there are certain words that can be helpful to avoid the constant use of numbers (for example: More than 50% of marriages in the United States end in divorce. ). These words are called Quantifiers, and their function is to replace specific numbers and percentages.

These quantifiers are: All 100% All families in Chile have a television at home. Nearly all Nearly all families in Chile have a television at home. Most Most families in Chile have a television at home. Many Many people in Chile have a computer at home. A lot of A lot of people in Chile have a computer at home. Some Some people in Chile have a computer at home. Not many Not many people in Chile speak English. A few A few people in Chile speak English. Few Few people in Chile speak English No one 0% No one in Chile gets married before the age of 15. Example: In Chile, 80% of high school students have a cell phone. In Chile, most students have a cell phone.

USEFUL EXPRESSIONS

When we want to give our own opinions about survey results or percentages, we can use some phrases that can show either agreement or disagreement.

Is that right? Example: I heard not many people in Chile get married before the age of 25. Is that right? Do you think so? Example: A: “I’m sure no one in Santiago has a helicopter.” B: “Do you think so? What about Leonardo Farkas?”



EXERCISES

1. I think ________________________ young people go to the university.

4. I think ________________________ elderly people have part-time jobs.

DESCRIBING ROUTINES

When we describe our routine or habits, Adverbs of Frequency can be used to express how often we do those actions. But there are also time expressions that help us express frequency. Adverbs of Frequency: These adverbs go before the verb in a sentence.

- Sue always plays basketball with her classmates after classes. - Thomas hardly ever goes running in the morning. - I almost never do yoga, because I don’t have enough time.

Some frequency adverbs are:

Always Almost always Usually Often Sometimes(*) Hardly ever Almost never Never 100% 0% (*) Sometimes: this frequency adverb can go at the beginning of a sentence, too.

- Sometimes I go jogging. - Sometimes I do step aerobics after work.



Time Expressions: These expressions go at the end of a sentence.

CLASE 20


Describen actividades realizadas en el pasado reciente 1. Talking about the weekend (simple past: regular and irregular verbs)

TALKING ABOUT PAST ACTIVITIES

When we talk about past activities, we use the Simple Past Tense. In affirmative sentences, the verb has the past form:

- I went to the movies last Saturday. - My friends and I studied English yesterday.

In negative sentences, the auxiliary DID is used to express past, and is followed by NOT. The verb maintains its form in the present.

- We didn’t do our homework for today! - Tom didn’t work last weekend because he didn’t feel well.

In interrogative sentences, the auxiliary DID is used to express past; therefore, the verb maintains its form in the present.

- Did Sue visit you last weekend?

Yes, she did. No, she didn’t.

- A: Where did you have lunch last Sunday? B: We had lunch at a Chinese restaurant.

EXERCISES

I. Complete the chart.

TALKING ABOUT LAST VACATION

When we describe our last vacation, we use the Simple Past Tense. We already saw the past tense of most of the verbs. Now we are going to see the verb be in the past tense.

The verb be has two forms in the past tense: was and were.

The structure of affirmative, negative and interrogative sentences follow the same order and rules as the verb be in its form in the present. Examples:

- Gloria was in Buenos Aires last week. She was there on business.

CLASE 26



1. Describing neighborhoods; common complaints about neighbors

2. Quantifiers; How much and how many (uncountable and countable nouns)

DESCRIBING NEIGHBORHOODS

When we describe neighborhoods we usually talk about important aspects like privacy, cleanliness, noise and safety, among other

things. Our neighbors are the people who live near us. Sometimes we have problems with our neighbors, and we have some complaints

about them: a dog that barks all night, loud parties, garbage in front of the yard, etc. What’s your neighborhood like? What complaints do you have about your neighbors?

QUANTIFIERS AND HOW MUCH / HOW MANY

When we describe our neighborhood we use nouns. Most nouns in English have singular and plural forms (for example: one park, two parks); these are called countable nouns. However, there are many common things that we cannot count directly. These are called uncountable nouns. Examples:

COUNTABLE NOUNS UNCOUNTABLE NOUNS

SINGULAR PLURAL ONLY ONE FORM (SINGULAR)

Restaurant Dance club School Café Building

Restaurants Dance clubs Schools Cafés Buildings

Crime Noise

Public transportation Pollution Parking Traffic

When we want to ask questions with countable nouns, we use MANY.

Examples: - Are there many supermarkets? - How many supermarkets are there?

When we want to ask questions with uncountable nouns, we use MUCH. Examples: - Is there much pollution? - How much pollution is there?

When we answer these questions, we use Quantifiers. We used quantifiers when we talked about Family Facts. Do you remember them? (Go back to page 32 if you don’t).

We use Quantifiers to describe different amounts of things: a lot of pollution, a few parks, many schools, much crime, etc.

- With countable nouns we use the following quantifiers: a lot, a few, many, any, and none.

- With uncountable nouns we use the following quantifiers: a lot, a little, much, any, and none.



Examples: - How many supermarkets are there? There are a lot.

There are a few. There aren’t many. There aren’t any. There are none.

- How much noise is there in your neighborhood? There‘s a lot. There’s a little. There isn’t much. There isn’t any. There’s none.

EXERCISES

I. Read this text about Japan and answer the questions using Quantifiers.

If you visit Japan you can find a mix of traditional and modern characteristics. In Tokyo for example, you can see impressive and tall apartment and office buildings, as well as traditional wooden houses in rural areas.

Tokyo has over 30 million inhabitants. Most of them prefer to live near the center of the city, so they often travel long distances on the different means of transportation to go to work. The unemployment rate is low.

Traffic, pollution and overpopulation are problems in Japan. However, they have very safe cities. Crime is not a problem. The people in this crowded country also have many parks and gardens.

Most population in Japan is Shintoist and Buddhist, so they have traditional temples all over the city and the country. Only one percent of Japanese are Catholic.
