III YEAR, Think 3, unit 12, p.115

Hello all :)
This is the last official homework for this school year. Today we wrap up on unit 12, the grammar section, which refers to the I wish/if only + Past perfect, which we use when we want to express regret about the past.
There, I gave you the rule in the blue rectangle:

• To express regret about the past, we can use I wish or If only + the past perfect tense.

TASK 1: Do exercises 2 and 3 from the grammar section.

In the vocabulary section, we see some phrases referring to the topics of nervousness and fear. Just match them with the pictures and that is TASK 2:

terrified - престрашен (од нешто)

biting my nails - грицка нокти

sweat - се поти

panic - паничи

mouth goes dry - устата му/ѝ се исуши

breathe hard - тешко дише

tremble - трепери

shaking - се тресе

Congrats, you made it! I know that it definitely wasn't the same as when we're in the classroom, but everyone tried real hard during these weird times. I'll send you details about the test on Sunday, and I also expect this homework by then.

II YEAR, Think 2, unit 12, p.115

Hello all!
This is the last official homework for this school year. Today we wrap up on unit 12, the grammar section, which refers to the Third conditional.

THIRD CONDITIONAL
Already mentioned previous year, you should know that conditionals are complex sentences. They consist of two parts, called clauses, and they are in a special relation to one another. In the case of conditional sentences the two clauses are IF-clause and MAIN clause, the first one showing the condition needed for something to happen (or not happen), the second showing the result.

If you look at exercise 1, there are three sentences in the third conditional. You can notice which grammatical constructions are used to form them. If you answer the questions, you also get an idea about their use. Therefore, you can complete the blue RULE rectangle :)

• To talk about unreal situations in the past and their imagined results, we use the third conditional. 
• In the condition clause we use IF + PAST PERFECT, and in the result clause WOULD (but also COULD, MIGHT) + HAVE + PAST PARTICIPLE of the main verb.
• The condition clause can come before or after the result clause. (If it comes before, there is no need to use a comma.)

You can check more about the third conditional on the following links (or just ask me):

(There are also exercises included, this is not homework, but you might just try them)

TASK: Do exercises 2 and 3 in relation to the third conditional.

Congrats, you made it! I know that it definitely wasn't the same as when we're in the classroom, but everyone tried real hard during these weird times. I'll send you details about the test on Sunday, and I also expect this homework by then.

III year, THINK 3, unit 12, p.112

Hello all!

Today we have some vocabulary and grammar from unit 12, on page 112 in your book. They both deal with the notion of phrasal verbs.

In the English grammar, the phrasal verb is a combination of two or three words from different grammatical categories, a verb and an adverb or a preposition, which then form a new semantic unit on a lexical or syntactic level. This new unit - the phrasal verb - usually has a completely different meaning from the root verb.

TASK 1: Match the phrasal verbs in exercise 1 from the vocabulary section with the definitions given. Then use them in the sentences in exercise 2. Make sure you use them in the correct tense form. 

The grammar part focuses on the fact that some phrasal verbs can be separated by an object which comes between its two parts, while others do not allow that.

So, if we fill in the rule rectangle, we get the following:

-With some phrasal verbs, the two parts can't be separated. They have to be together. 

(e.g. We look forward to it. NOT: We look it forward to.) 

- Other phrasal verbs can be separated, we can put an object between the two parts, or after the second part. (e.g. She blew out the candles, but also: She blew the candles out.)

- When a pronoun is used with a phrasal verb whose parts can be separated, the pronoun must go between the parts of the phrasal verb. (e.g. He broke it down, NOT He broke down it.)

TASK 2: In exercise 2 from the grammar section, put the words into order to make sentences; if there are two possible, write them both. Then use the given phrasal verbs to complete the questions in exercise 3. Make sure you use them in the correct tense form.

That's it! I'll be expecting your homework till Thursday, 28th May, 23:59 pm.

Wishing you good health!  

II year, THINK 2, unit 12, p.112

Hello all!
Today we have some grammar and vocabulary from unit 12, on page 112.

The grammar part refers to the constructions BE ALLOWED TO/LET, which we use when we want to talk about PERMISSION. The rule is the following:

-We use BE ALLOWED TO when there is no need to identify who gives the permission, The subject of the sentence is the one who receives or doesn't receive permission. So, the form is:

SUBJECT + BE ALLOWED TO + INFINITIVE (Некому му е дозволено нешто)

-We use LET when the subject of the sentence is the one who gives or doesn't give permission:

SUBJECT + LET + SOMEONE + BARE INFINITIVE (WITHOUT TO) (Некој дозволува некому)

TASK 1: Following the given example, form sentences in exercise 2. Then, write 3 sentences about yourself in exercise 3.

The vocabulary section deals with phrases about discipline. There are six:

to do what you're told = да правиш како што ти е кажано

to behave well = да се однесуваш добро

to get punished = да бидеш казнет(а)

to break the rules = да ги прекршиш правилата

to get into trouble = да западнеш во невоља

to get told off = да бидеш прекорен(а)

TASK 2: Match the phrases with the definitions in exercise 1, then use them in the sentences in exercise 2.

That's it! I'll be expecting your homework till Thursday, 28th May, 23:59 pm.
Wishing you good health!

III year, Think 3, Unit 11, p. 107, 108, 109

Hello people! Today we'll quickly go over several pages and wrap up on unit 11. On page 107 the grammar section refers to the use of so/such in order to emphasize adjectives, adverbs, nouns and noun phrases. The only difference in form is that when so/such are used with nouns, an indefinite article is necessary.

so/such + adjective/adverb

so/such + (a/an) (adjective) noun

Eventually, so/such can be used to show how one thing is a result of another, in which case they are followed by that.

e.g. The party was so much fun that he wished it never ended.

       It was such a special occasion that they needed to follow the dress code.

On the right side of page 107 we see the vocabulary section. It refers to negative prefixes in adjectives. Look up the adjectives in exercise 1 and their opposites on the net, then fill in the table in exercise 2.

TASK 1:
1. Do exercise 3 from the grammar section.
2. Do exercise 3 from the vocabulary section.

On page 108, there is a text The Great Escape. Read through it and then

TASK 2:
1. Do exercise 3 (p.108) and 5 (p.109) in relation to the text.

I'll be expecting your homework till 21st May, 23:59 pm. Stay well!
