AD because he wanted to see what had become of the human race.

Lesson 3

To learn character adjectives to describe people

To read about famous men and their hobbies

To use gerunds after certain verbs and

prepositions

Aims

Initial phase

Have students practise adjectives Organize the

class into two teams and invite a member of team A

out to the front Whisper an adjective, eg: ‘friendly’

into the student’s ear Encourage the members

of his/her team to make questions about his/her

everyday activities, last weekend activities or his/

her relationship with others or his/her attitude

towards life so as to guess the adjective The student

will mime actions trying to show the characteristic

denoted by the adjective in question, eg: for

‘friendly’, the student can mime a big smile, can hug

his/her classmates or shake hands with everyone

Use this as a model and then go on with the game

Proceed in the same way with a student from the

opposing team and so on Here is a list of adjectives

you may use: ‘friendly’, ‘sad’, ‘happy’, ‘excited’,

‘angry’, ‘thirsty’, ‘fast’, ‘afraid’

exercise 1 with their antonyms

Answers

1 unsociable; 2 talkative; 3 honest; 4 confident

Ask students to work in pairs Explain they will have three minutes to choose adjectives from exercises 1 and 3 and write down what behaviours or attitudes they correspond to, eg:

‘jealous: a jealous person doesn’t share things easily, feels sad when other people have got new things and pays attention to other people all the time.’ Walk around and provide help Check their work orally and discuss if necessary

The aim of this activity is to help students talk

as they memorize adjectives, so avoid correcting and take into account that adjectives reflect subjectivity, so a student’s answer may

over-be correct even if you don’t agree with it

Audioscript

Presenter On today’s programme we’re looking at the

history of one of the most popular social networking sites today – Facebook Ben Davies is here to tell us all about it Ben, how did Facebook start?

Ben Well, a student called Mark Zuckerberg started it

when he was at Harvard University.

Presenter So he started it by himself?

Ben No, he started it with three other computer

science students … Eduardo Saverin, Dustin Moskovitz and Chris Hughes.

Presenter So there were four of them all together who

started Facebook?

Ben Right.

Presenter And why did they start it?

Ben Well, they wanted to have a website for all the

university students, so it started as a website for Harvard University students That was in 2004

Then it became available for other American universities Then it became available for all American high school students in 2005.

Presenter I didn’t know that.

Ben And in 2006 it became available for everyone age

13 and over You need an email address, but if you’re over 13 and you’ve got an email address you can join Facebook.

Presenter But Facebook isn’t available in every country, is

it?

Ben No … you’re right It’s prohibited in countries

such as China and Iran, so it isn’t available there And many offices don’t like people using

it at work Office managers think people spend too much time networking with friends and not working.

Presenter So how many Facebook users are there now?

Ben How many people have profiles and use it? Let’s

see … It’s got over 2.2 billion monthly active users all over the world!

Presenter And is it more popular than other social

networking sites?

Ben At the beginning of 2018, it was the most used

site … so now it’s more popular than YouTube

or WhatsApp – or any other site In January, Facebook had about 2.2 billion active users, compared to YouTube which had about 1.5 billion active users And it’s the most popular social networking site in India, America and Brazil.

Presenter Is it mainly young people who use it?

Ben No, not at all, but it is very popular with young

people An American company did a survey and asked students what their favourite things are … music was number one, Facebook was number two.

Presenter I see! So Facebook is really popular, but not as

popular as listening to music.

Ben Yes Did you know there’s a new dictionary word

because of social networking sites? Some years ago an important American dictionary said that their word of the year is the new verb ‘unfriend’.

Presenter To ‘unfriend’?

Ben Yeah It means to remove someone as a friend on

a social networking site like Facebook.

Presenter So now you know Don’t offend your Facebook

friends or they could unfriend you!

Invite students to compare different technological devices, eg: a tablet, a smartphone, a laptop, an e-book reader and a flatscreen TV They can use these adjectives:

to the corresponding column on the board

PHASES EXTRA

10 Have the class complete the sentences using the

adjectives in blue Check on the board

Answers

1 longer; 2 more interesting; 3 most important; 4 more long-lasting; 5 more modern

11 Ask the class to compare using the adjectives

given Check their work orally

Draw students’ attention to the Look! box and make sure they understand that two-syllable adjectives ending in -y form their comparative and superlative forms like any short adjective, while those two-syllable adjectives ending in any other letter behave like long adjectives, eg:

ending in -y: ‘happy’, ‘messy’, ‘tidy’, ‘angry’,

‘dirty’, ‘sexy’; ending in other letters: ‘nervous’,

‘anxious’, ‘clever’, ‘modern’, ‘useful’

LOOK!

Although we may try to set grammar rules as clearly as possible, very often these are changed by native speakers, who in turn rely on tendencies In fact, two-syllable adjectives show great variability

The tendency, however, is to inflect (ie add -er, -est to) adjectives ending in -y, (‘pretty’, ‘prettier’,

‘prettiest’) and to accept both forms with adjectives ending in -ly (‘lonelier’ or ‘more lonely’) Adjectives ending in -ow, like ‘narrow’, -er, like ‘clever’ and -le, like ‘simple’ are accepted in both forms

TEACHING TIP

Remind students of the irregular forms of ‘good’

and ‘bad’ Elicit examples with the comparative and superlative forms, eg: in relation with bands, singers and computers

Communicative activities imply information

gap – something that is not known by one of the

speakers, something that has to be found out

As communicative activities involve interaction,

they are likely to make the classroom noisy but

positively so Don’t be afraid of getting students

to talk; just make sure you take the necessary

precautions:

a Give clear instructions and check they

understand what they have to do

b Circulate monitoring their work and helping

when there is some difficulty

c Avoid unnecessary correction; it only hinders

progress

It is true that communicative activities can

pose challenges, especially when students and

teachers are accustomed to teacher-centred

authentic opportunities to use the language and

are more fun

Maria I’ve done a sponsored swim I’ve swum regularly

since I was six years old, so I really like swimming I did the swim with three friends in

my class and so far we’ve raised seven hundred and fifty pounds We’re still collecting money so

we hope to raise a total of £1,000.

Presenter That sounds incredible Maria Well done Have

you ever done a sponsored swim before?

Maria No, I haven’t, but I really enjoyed it It was very

tiring, but it was fun.

Presenter How far did you swim?

Maria We swam a total of sixteen hundred and fifty

metres.

Presenter Fifteen hundred metres?

Maria No, sixteen hundred and fifty metres It’s a mile

And it took us about an hour So, we were very tired at the end.

Presenter What about you, Simon? What fundraising activity

have you done this week?

Simon Well, the activity that raised the most money was

car washing My friend Ben and I have washed one hundred and sixteen cars this week We put

an advert in the local paper and our headteacher let us use the school car park after school We charged £5 per car, so we’ve raised a total of £580.

Presenter That’s fantastic You say this was the activity that

raised the most money What else have you done?

Simon We organized a jumble sale and a raffle We

looked through our old toys, books, gadgets and clothes and collected lots of things Most of the things we put in our jumble sale, but some of our things were more valuable, for example, Ben has just bought a new laptop so we sold raffle tickets for his old laptop.

raised a total £962.
