UNIT 8

First Conditional
The first conditional has the present simple after 'if', then the future simple in the other clause:

if + present simple, ... will + infinitive

It's used to talk about things which might happen in the future. Of course, we can't know what will happen in the future, but this describes possible things, which could easily come true.

  • If it rains, I won't go to the park.
  • If I study today, I'll go to the party tonight.
  • If I have enough money, I'll buy some new shoes.
Here you have some activities...
 

 

UNIT 7

This unit grammar is a little bit difficult because it is new, but no worries.. ;)
 
REPORTED SPEECH
USES:
Sometimes someone says a sentence, for example " I am going to the swimming pool today". Later, if you tell to someone else what the fairs person said you use the reported speech.
 
FORM:
Tense Direct Speech Reported Speech
present simple “I like ice cream” She said (that) she liked ice cream.
present continuous “I am living in London” She said (that) she was living in London.

UNIT 5

We are going to start this second term with the future form "will". It is getting difficult but we can do it!
 
WILL
 
We use "will" to make predictions about the future and when we decide something in the moment that we are speaking. Let's see two examples:
 
  1. It will snow tomorrow, it is so cold.
  2. I'm very thirsty. I will drink a glass of water.
Form:
 
    Affirmative: Subject + will + verb in infinitive (first column of irregular verbs). 
    Negative: Subject + won't (will not) + verb in infinitive.
    Interrogative: Will + subject + verb in infinitive.
 
    E.g.
 
    + I will play football.
    - I won't play football.
    ? Will I play football?
 
Lots of exercises in the following link:
 
 
PRESENT CONTINUOUS FOR THE FUTURE:
 
Sometimes we use the present continuous to talk about the future plans and arrangements. For example:
 
  • We are leaving at two o'clock.
If you want to check how to form the present continuous, you may read the following lines:
 
Form:
 
    Affirmative: Subject + verb to be (am/is/are) + verb-ing.
    Negative: Subject + verb to be + not + verb-ing.
    Interrogative: Verb to be + subject + verb-ing.
 
 E.g.
 
    + I am playing football.
    - I am not playing football.
    ? Am I playing football?
