1 00:00:00,220 --> 00:00:06,839 Hello! I've been working on some of your exercises this long weekend and I've 2 00:00:06,839 --> 00:00:12,259 seen that we must work a little bit on grammar. So, we're going to start today 3 00:00:12,259 --> 00:00:17,940 with some of the grammar sections we haven't done before and we're going to 4 00:00:17,940 --> 00:00:23,420 start with Unit 1. So, stop the video if you want, get your book because we're 5 00:00:23,420 --> 00:00:34,340 going to start with Unit 1. Okay, when we talked about food and you remember when 6 00:00:34,340 --> 00:00:40,079 we talked about if Italian food was the best and we did the exercises on the 7 00:00:40,079 --> 00:00:46,939 listening, we skipped the part of the present simple, the present continues and 8 00:00:46,939 --> 00:00:53,579 something which I think is new which is action and non-action verbs. So, in your 9 00:00:53,579 --> 00:01:03,420 book on page 8, you have this exercise over here. Okay. And here you have three 10 00:01:03,420 --> 00:01:09,959 sentences from the interview of this one who had a restaurant. You don't need 11 00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:17,340 anything except lemon and olive oil when fish and seafood is really fresh or you 12 00:01:17,340 --> 00:01:25,400 aren't needing okay and the second this week for example I make I'm making 13 00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:33,280 Natko's a Cretan salad or I go I'm going to crease maybe for four or five times a 14 00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:43,859 year so choose the right tense and we're going to listen and check because we're 15 00:01:43,859 --> 00:01:55,519 going to work on the present tenses. One point ten. One. You don't need anything except lemon 16 00:01:55,519 --> 00:02:02,700 and olive oil when fish and seafood is really fresh. OK, so this is the right one. You don't 17 00:02:02,700 --> 00:02:12,590 need. Two. This week, for example, I'm making dakos, a Cretan salad made with fresh goat's 18 00:02:12,590 --> 00:02:25,240 cheese, tomato and bread. I'm making. Three. I go to Crete maybe four or five times a year. 19 00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:34,379 And I go. As you see, these are examples of different uses of the different present tenses. 20 00:02:35,139 --> 00:02:44,840 And I'm sure you've learnt the present simple, present continuous and going to. OK? So, if we 21 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:57,259 go to your grammar bag. Here you have all the information. Okay. But I think, okay, 22 00:02:57,259 --> 00:03:02,180 this part over here, the present simple and the present continuous is quite 23 00:03:02,180 --> 00:03:08,960 right. All you need to do is read it, check and do the exercises. If you have 24 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:16,740 any questions, please ask me in class. But maybe this part over here, action and 25 00:03:16,740 --> 00:03:26,699 non-anxious action verbs is new okay so please stop the video and read this part 26 00:03:26,699 --> 00:03:34,979 and we're going to do something else okay now you're going to listen to 27 00:03:34,979 --> 00:03:43,139 something unit 8 Oh mrs. Byrne thank you for coming to see me I need to talk to 28 00:03:43,139 --> 00:03:49,360 you about Jasmine. Oh dear, is she being naughty? No, no, she's always very polite and friendly. 29 00:03:50,060 --> 00:03:55,439 I want to talk to you about her work. She usually works hard at school and does all her homework, 30 00:03:55,939 --> 00:04:00,719 but at the moment she isn't doing her homework and she isn't concentrating in lessons. 31 00:04:01,460 --> 00:04:07,240 She seems a bit restless and unhappy. Yes, I think I know what the problem is. 32 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:13,039 Her pet hamster, Tommy, died last week. She is very unhappy about that. 33 00:04:13,439 --> 00:04:16,100 Oh, I see. Poor Jasmine. 34 00:04:16,699 --> 00:04:22,680 Well, I'm going to the pet shop with her today to buy a puppy. She is very excited about that. 35 00:04:35,209 --> 00:04:43,170 Okay, so you've listened to a dialogue between a teacher and a mother. 36 00:04:44,829 --> 00:04:47,610 What has happened? What is the problem? 37 00:04:48,990 --> 00:04:50,209 Let's listen again. 38 00:04:53,540 --> 00:04:54,259 Unit 8 39 00:04:54,259 --> 00:04:58,680 Oh, Mrs. Byrne, thank you for coming to see me. 40 00:04:59,180 --> 00:05:00,980 I need to talk to you about Jasmine. 41 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:03,740 Oh, dear. Is she being naughty? 42 00:05:03,899 --> 00:05:06,379 No, no. She's always very polite and friendly. 43 00:05:07,079 --> 00:05:08,959 I want to talk to you about her work. 44 00:05:09,620 --> 00:05:12,480 She usually works hard at school and does all her homework, 45 00:05:12,959 --> 00:05:15,399 but at the moment she isn't doing her homework 46 00:05:15,399 --> 00:05:17,759 and she isn't concentrating in lessons. 47 00:05:17,759 --> 00:05:20,720 She seems a bit restless and unhappy. 48 00:05:21,519 --> 00:05:30,040 Yes, I think I know what the problem is. Her pet hamster, Tommy, died last week. She is very unhappy about that. 49 00:05:30,439 --> 00:05:33,139 Oh, I see. Poor Jasmine. 50 00:05:33,740 --> 00:05:39,699 Well, I'm going to the pet shop with her today to buy a puppy. She is very excited about that. 51 00:05:39,699 --> 00:06:07,170 Okay, so there is a problem with the student and her mother has given a reason to the teacher. Let's look at what you have heard. And I think it's here. 52 00:06:22,399 --> 00:06:27,660 works hard at school and does all her homework, but at the moment she isn't doing her homework 53 00:06:27,660 --> 00:06:35,319 and she isn't concentrating in lessons. She seems a bit restless and unhappy. Yes, I think 54 00:06:35,319 --> 00:06:41,699 I know what the problem is. Her pet hamster, Tommy, died last week. She is very unhappy 55 00:06:41,699 --> 00:06:48,959 about that. Oh, I see. Poor Jasmine. Well, I'm going to the pet shop with her today to 56 00:06:48,959 --> 00:06:57,579 buy a puppy. She is very excited about that. OK, so this was the problem. And look at the 57 00:06:57,579 --> 00:07:13,750 verbs they've used. Need, want, think, know, see and seem. OK? We normally use the verbs 58 00:07:13,750 --> 00:07:20,250 in the present simple and the present continuous. For example, verbs like run. You have this 59 00:07:20,250 --> 00:07:26,069 example. Donna is running around the park. I'm cooking dinner. But there are some 60 00:07:26,069 --> 00:07:33,329 verbs, the verbs that you have here, that are not used in the continuous form. Okay? 61 00:07:33,329 --> 00:07:41,750 And in your book you have some notes but these are the most important things. Look. 62 00:07:41,750 --> 00:07:53,189 The verbs which indicate state, thinking or feeling. So, state for be, seem, mean, 63 00:07:53,189 --> 00:08:01,430 contain, have. Thinking, there you have, think, know, believe, understand. See in the 64 00:08:01,430 --> 00:08:07,470 meaning of understand it. I see it, I understand it. And feeling, like, want, 65 00:08:07,470 --> 00:08:18,389 love hate need these verbs are called stayed verbs and they are not used in 66 00:08:18,389 --> 00:08:25,230 the continuous form so you may say Simon likes the painting but you don't say 67 00:08:25,230 --> 00:08:36,429 Simon is liking the painting now there you have the verbs be have and think can 68 00:08:36,429 --> 00:08:42,370 be used in the continuous form but they have a different meaning. She's being 69 00:08:42,370 --> 00:08:51,070 very good. Being in this case means behave. Not that she exists but she 70 00:08:51,070 --> 00:09:00,370 behaves. She's behaving well. I'm having a shower. It's not that you possess the 71 00:09:00,370 --> 00:09:09,149 shower but you're actually showering yourself and thinking in the meaning of 72 00:09:09,149 --> 00:09:16,269 considering okay now there are two exceptions and these are important 73 00:09:16,269 --> 00:09:24,029 because you will find it in almost every single song you listen to look and feel 74 00:09:24,029 --> 00:09:34,029 can be used in the continuous and the simple form, no? How do you feel or are 75 00:09:34,029 --> 00:09:39,750 you feeling tired? Okay, so the most important thing is to remember that 76 00:09:39,750 --> 00:09:49,470 these verbs state, think and feel are not used in the continuous form and because 77 00:09:49,470 --> 00:10:01,620 of this I will post this handout for you to do the exercises, okay? And now we're 78 00:10:01,620 --> 00:10:15,039 going to check the answer to the exercises that you've done, okay? So there 79 00:10:15,039 --> 00:10:34,169 you are. You may stop the video and check if the answers were right. Okay? Okay, 80 00:10:34,169 --> 00:10:39,830 that's all for state and action verbs.
