IV. HERE IS SOME USEFUL VOCABULARY FOR ASKING DIRECTIONS IN

ENGLISH.

Asking for directions

"How do I get to your office?"

"Can you tell me the best way of getting to your office?"

"What's the quickest way of getting to your office?"

"Where are you exactly?"

Getting information

"Will you be coming by car or by train?"

"It's much easier if you take the train."

"Which hotel are you staying at?"

General information in English

"We're not far from…" or "We're quite close to…"

"It's about a mile / kilometre / two blocks from…"

"We're opposite / next to / in front of / across the road from / round the

corner from the supermarket."

Giving directions in English

"Come off the motorway / highway at Junction / Exit 12."

"It's signposted 'Manchester'."

"Follow the signs to …"

"There's a one-way system in the centre of town."

"Take the 'A12' to 'Chelmsford'."

"Go straight on / left / right at the lights / at the roundabout /at the

junction of … and …"

"Go past the supermarket."

"You'll come to / see …"

Page 55: english for beginners

55

"It's the first turning on the right after the bank."

Use landmarks to help

"You'll see a large sign / roundabout."

"On your left you'll see an industrial centre / a hospital / the police

station."

"Just after the level crossing / shopping centre (or mall)."

SECTION 3

GRAMMAR

Page 108: english for beginners

108

I. PRESENT TENSE

The present tense is the tense that may be used to express:

• Action at the present;

• A state of being;

• An occurrence in the (very) near future; or

• An action that occurred in the past and continues up to the present.

A. Simple Present,

The specific function of simple present tense, as follows:

1. The present simple tense is very often used with adverbs of repeated

time. Look at these examples (the adverbs are shown in bold):

• I always come to school by cycle.

• She frequently arrives here before me.

• He never forgets to do his homework.

• I often catch the late bus home.

2. When we want to state a fact or ask a question without any time

reference, we use the present simple tense.

• I live in Frankfurt.

• She plays football but she does not play tennis.

Basic Tenses

Unit 1

Page 109: english for beginners

109

• For breakfast, he eats rice and drinks cold milk.

3. The present simple tense is also used for statements about rules of

nature and the way the world is.

• The sun sets in the west.

• Most babies learn to speak when they are about two years old.

• Water boils at 100° Celsius.

Study the following rule/formula of Simple Present Tense:

B. Present Continuous

Present Continuous used to describe events happening now, for

examples:

1. I am reading this article.

2. I am thinking about editing it.

3. The international Institute of Islamic thought is trying to raise funds

to support Muslim scholars’ activities.

4. The Teachers are working on the process of knowledge

development.

5. They are crystallizing Islamic thought, concepts and methodology.

Study the following rule/formula of Present Continues Tense:

Subject + is/am/are + (verb + ing) …

Subject + Present Verb + Complement/Object + Modifier/adverb

Page 110: english for beginners

110

C. Present Perfect Continues

This is used to describe events or actions that have begun at some point

in the past and continue through the present, for examples:

1. I have been reading this article for some time now.

2. I have been working as an English teacher for 5 years.

3. I have been waiting for him for 2 hours.

Study the following rule/formula of Present Perfect Continues Tense:

II. PAST TENSE

1. Simple past is formed for regular verbs by adding -d or–ed to the root of

a word. Examples:

1. He walked to the store.

2. They danced all night.

A negation is produced by adding did not and the verb in its infinitive

form. Example:

He did not walk to the store.

Question sentences are started with did as in:

Did he walk to the store?

Subject + Have been + Verb (ing) …

Page 111: english for beginners

111

Simple past is used for describing acts that have already been concluded

and whose exact time of occurrence is known. Furthermore, simple past

is used for retelling successive events. That is why it is commonly used

in storytelling.

Study the following rule/formula:

2. Past progressive is formed by using the adequate form of to be and the

verb’s present participle:

He was going to church.

By inserting not before the main verb a negation is achieved. Example:

He was not going to church.

A question is formed by prefixing the adequate form of to be as in:

Was he going?

Past progressive is used for describing events that were in the process

of occurring when a new event happened. The already occurring event

presented in past progressive, the new one in simple past. Example:

We were sitting in the garden when the thunderstorm started.

Study the following rule/formula:

Subject + was/were + (verb + ing) …

Subject + Past Verb + Complement/Object + Modifier/adverb

Page 112: english for beginners

112

3. Simple Past perfect is formed by combining the simple past form of to

have with the past participle form of the main verb:

We had shouted.

A negation is achieved by including not after had:

You had not spoken.

Questions in past perfect always start with had:

Had he laughed?

Simple past perfect is used for describing secluded events that have

occurred before something else followed. The event that is closer to the

present is given in simple past tense:

After we had visited our relatives in New York, we flew back to Toronto.

Study the following rule/formula:

III. FUTURE TENSE

In grammar, the future tense is a verb form that marks the event described

by the verb as not having happened yet, but expected to happen in the

future (in an absolute tense system), or to happen subsequent to some

other event, whether that is past, present, or future (in a relative tense

system).

Subject + had + past participle …

Page 113: english for beginners

113

A. The most common auxiliary verbs used to express futurity are will and

shall. Prescriptive grammarians distinguish between these, preferring to

express the simple future as will in the second person and shall in the

first and third persons; and preferring to express obligation or

determination in the opposite cases. However, in modern English

worldwide, shall and will are generally used.

Other forms for the future include:

• to be going to + Verb, e.g. "John is going to leave tonight."

• to be to + Verb, e.g. "John is to leave tonight.", which with the zero

copula of newspaper headline style becomes simply to + Verb, e.g.

"John to leave tonight."

B. English also uses can, may and must in a similar way.

• "Should" (the subjunctive form of shall in this context) implies

obligation or commitment to the action contemplated.

• "Can" implies the ability to commit the action but does not presuppose

obligation or firm commitment to the action.

• "May" expresses the least sense of commitment and is the most

permissive; it is also a verb used in the auxiliary construction that

suggests conditionality.

Page 114: english for beginners

114

• "Must" expresses the highest degree of obligation and commitment ("I

must go") and is temporally nearest to present time in its expression of

futurity ("I must go now.").

To wit:

• I shall/will go

• I should go

• I can go

• I may go

• I must go

C. To express futurity in the negative, a negative adverb - such as "not" or

"never" is inserted after the auxiliary verb, as in all other auxiliary

constructions.

• I shall/will not go

• I should never go

• I cannot go

• I may never go

• I must not go

Page 115: english for beginners

115

D. Additional auxiliary constructions used to express futurity are labelled

as follows:

Future Continuous Formula:

• I shall/will be going

• You will be singing

• He will be sleeping

• We may be coming

• They may be traveling

• It will be snowing when Nancy arrives

• It will not be raining when Josie leaves

Future Perfect Formula:

• I shall/will be gone

• You will have sung

• He will have slept

• We may have come

• They may have traveled

• It will have snowed

Auxiliary + Verb Stem + Present Participle

Auxiliary + Verb Stem + Past Participle

Page 116: english for beginners

116

D. Future Perfect Habitual (or Future Perfect Continuous):

• I shall/will have been going

• You will have been singing

• He will have been sleeping

• We may have been coming

• They may have been traveling

• It will have been snowing

READING TIPS TO IMPROVE YOUR GRAMMAR

• Focus on various tenses or forms, by highlighting examples of a specific form in

a text you are reading.

• Highlight all auxiliary verbs in a text. Discuss which tenses take the highlighted

auxiliary verbs.

• Choose a few sentences from your reading material and highlight content

words (main verbs, nouns, adjectives, adverbs) in red and structural words

(articles, auxiliary verbs, any and some, etc.) in yellow or another color.

• Find linking words (although, however, but, first, next, etc.) and notice how

they relate sentences to each other.

• Use a text as a basis for a sentence auction in class. Change some of the

sentences to an incorrect version and see if you can fool your classmates into

thinking they are correct.

• In small groups, highlight sentences using different tenses. Each students

explains the reasons for the tense in each sentence.

• Mark-up a few sentences from an article selecting subject, auxiliary verb, main

verb, adjective, etc.

Page 167: english for beginners

167

READING TIPS TO IMPROVE YOUR CONVERSATIONAL SKILLS

• Choose an article or short story to read with a friend or classmate. Discuss the

article together.

• Choose an article or short story to read with a friend or classmate. Each person

should write down five questions about the article and his / her partner.

• Read a few articles to develop a debate. Hold the debate in class making

arguments based on what you have read.

• Read a short play with a few friends. Continue the conversation by each taking

a character from the play and having a discussion about something that

happened in the play.

• Read DIALOGs. Once you've practiced the written texts, improvise a continued

conversation using the same characters as in the DIALOG.

• Read short biographies. Pair up with a friend or classmate and take on the

roles of interviewer and famous person (taken from the biography).

Page 168: english for beginners

168

READING TIPS TO IMPROVE YOUR VOCABULARY

• Construct vocabulary trees from short stories or articles you are reading.

• Build mind maps based on the stories or articles you are reading.

• Photocopy a page or an article and highlight all the words you do not

understand. Look up those words and add them to your vocabulary diary.

• When you come across a word you do not understand, first try to

understand based on context.

• Focus on prefixes and suffixes and find examples in a text you are reading.

Underline and try to understand based on the prefixes or suffixes. Try to come

up with the antonyms. These are words with an opposite meaning and are

often related (unhappy - happy, misinformation - information, etc.)

• Read a short story and try to retell or rewrite the story using as much

vocabulary from the story as possible.

• Note down nouns and adjectives you do not understand. Use a thesaurus to

help you find synonyms to these words. Finding synonyms will help you learn

groups of words with similar meanings.

Angel investors provide capital for start-ups bringing their innovations to the

marketplace. Recently, with the huge growth in opportunities brought about

by the internet, more and more small investors are providing 'angel' financing

for these small, nimble companies. Angel investors typically invest between

$5,000 to $40,000 in a start-up in its infancy. Sometimes, 'angels' are so

convinced by an idea that they provide funds for a business that hasn't even

been founded! Without these risk-takers, innovative and revolutionary

advances in technology may not come to pass. The price is high, and start-ups

often fail, but just one 'winner' can return twenty times the initial investment.

In other words, an angel investing in fifteen companies needs just one success

to make the investment strategy worthwhile. Of course, angels hope for a

much better return. Because these investors at the beginning of the company

there are many terms used in angel investing that reflect this early stage

development. Here are some of the most important:

• seed a company - the first 'seed' of money to help 'grow' the company

• get in on the ground level - lowest level entry point

Investing

Unit 3

Page 176: english for beginners

• self-funded - a company that provides its own financing without asking for

outside help

• garage startup - the classic technology started - Steve Jobs and Steve

Wozniak started Apple in a garage - it's become a modern day 'American

dream' of many - especially in San Francisco)

Angel investing is sometimes confused with venture investments. Angell

investors fund at the initial entry level while venture capitalists usually wait

until a young company has proven that their idea and has brought their

product or technology to market. These companies then need larger

investments to quickly grow and capture market share.

This year Americans elect on a new president on November 4th. It's an

important event that happens once every four years. Currently, the president

is always elected from one of the two main parties in the United States: the

Republicans and the Democrats. There are other presidential candidates.

However, it is unlikely that any of these "third party" candidates will win. It

certainly hasn't happened in the last one hundred years.

In order to become the presidential nominee of a party, the candidate must

win the primary election. Primary elections are held throughout each state in

the United States in the first half of any election year. Then, the delegates

attend their party convention in order to nominate their chosen candidate.

Usually, as in this election, it's clear who will be the nominee. However, in the

past parties have been divided and choosing a nominee has been a difficult

process.

Once the nominees have been selected, they campaign throughout the

country. A number of debates are usually held in order to better understand

President Election

Unit 4

Page 180: english for beginners

the candidates' points of view. These points of view often reflect their party's

platform. A party platform is best described as the general beliefs and policies

a party holds. Candidates cross the country by plane, bus, train or by car giving

speeches. These speeches are often called 'stump speeches'. In the 19th

century candidates would stand on tree stumps to deliver their speeches.

These stump speeches repeat the candidates basic views and aspirations for

the country. They are repeated many hundred of times by each candidate.

Many people believe that campaigns in the United States have become too

negative. Each night you can see many attack ads on the television. These

short ads contain sound bites which often distort the truth, or something the

other candidate has said or done. Another recent problem has been voter

turnout. There is often less than 60% turnout for national elections. Some

people don't register to vote, and some registered voters don't show up at the

voting booths. This angers many citizens who feel that voting is the most

important responsibility of any citizen. Others point out that not voting is

expressing an opinion that the system is broken.

the United States maintains an extremely old, and some say inefficient, voting

system. This system is called the Electoral College. Each state is assigned

electoral votes based on the number of senators and representatives that

state has in Congress. Each state has two Senators. The number of

Page 181: english for beginners

181

representatives is determined by the states population but is never less then

1. The electoral votes are decided by the popular vote in each state. One

candidate wins all of the electoral votes in a state. In other words, Oregon has

8 electoral votes. If 1 million people vote for the Republican candidate and

one million and ten people vote for the Democratic candidate ALL 8 electoral

votes go to the democratic candidate. Many people feel that this system

should be abandoned.
