Here’s the Powerpoint we saw in class to practise the functional language you need for your oral exam. These structures are VERY useful when you speak to English people so REMEMBER them and WHEN to use them. This is when all your work from Básico 2 now starts to make sense. Good luck next week.
Here’s the Powerpoint we looked at in class to practise rules.
You can also practise the structures on the Pre-intermediate English File website by doing this exercise and this one.
Another way to practise using the same website is by doing the text builder exercises. Try to recreate any of the texts from the coursebook. That way, you practise structures, vocabulary and by recreating a text, you are practising writing too!
If you’re confused about all the uses of ‘will/won’t', then here’s some extra practice. First of all, look at this Powerpoint about offers, promises and decisions and guess what the sentences are.
You can do some followup activities here and here from the book English File Third Edition.
Now look at these exercises from the Oxford New English File Pre-intermediate website. Click here and here to practise ‘will’ for offers, promises and decisions, and here and here to practise will/won’t for predictions.
And for the best promise made in a film, here’s Whitney Houston singing, ‘I Will Always Love You‘ in ‘The Bodyguard‘.
These are the grammar concepts we’ve seen in File 5C with básico 2 students. To revise them, please take a look at the following presentation. For further practise, you can visit the NEF preintermediate site, which contains some activities. You can find them here and here.
Of course, my main objective in life is being happy, so I’d rather be poor and happy than rich and sad. What about you?
If you want to answer to this question and to some other questions of the same kind, I encourage you to visit the site Yourather.com, where you can answer to lots of interesting and unusual questions and see what others have answered too.
And for some grammar practice, just visit the New English File site, where you have an online activity.
