Describe de manera sencilla su entorno, rutina y apariencia.

Forming the simple present tense

With most verbs, the third person singular form is created simply by adding -S.
Clean she cleans

Speak- speaks

Play - plays

However, with some verbs, you need to add -es or change the ending a little.
Here are the rules:
Verbs ending in s, ch, z, x, sh & o add -es
Fix - He Fixes

watch She watches pass It passes

go He goes

Verbs ending in consonant + y Change Y to I, then add es.

Study she studies

Try He tries

nicamente con seguir de manera adecuada las indicaciones y explicaciones que se te dan;
pero lo ms importante es poner a trabajar ese aprendizaje y realizar tareas con l para que

Ahora dirijamos nuestra atencin hacia como poder describir actividades a realizar en un
futuro. Antes que todo presta atencin a la composicin gramatical de sta y responde a la
siguiente actividad.

I. Use the information contained in the above chart, and fill in the gaps with the
correct form of be going to and put the next verbs in their correct space.

[organize, take, move, attend, study]

1.- Peter _____________________ to Miami next year.

2.- I ____________________ for my exam. I have to pass it.

3.- My brothers ____________________ a party in two weeks.

4.- _____ you _______________ the class tomorrow?

5.- We ___________________ vacation this Summer because my father had the house
repaired.

Como te diste cuenta esta estructura gramatical te va a servir para describir acciones o
actividades a realizar en un fututo siempre y cuando hayan sido planeadas previamente. Ten
siempre en mente que la forma del verbo be dentro de la expresin se va a modificar
segn el sujeto que se est empleando en la oracin. A continuacin realiza el siguiente
ejercicio en los consecutivos extractos de canciones.
Nota: En ocasiones en la prctica la regla gramatical no se aplica tal cual, un ejemplo de
esto lo encontraras en los fragmentos de algunas canciones que a continuacin se incluyen
en la gua para que resuelvas un ejercicio. En el caso del futuro con be going to algunos
nativo hablantes del idioma ingls lo descomponen y lo contraen a modo de hacerlo ms
prctico y rpido de pronunciar, es decir en lugar de decir going to dicen gonna y
omiten la preposicin to.

II. Write a short text, in which you describe the different activities you plan to do

Read the text. Were your ideas correct?

Three steps to success

She had no job. She was a single mother, living in a small apartment with her baby
daughter. Life was hard. Now, she is a great success.
Children and adults buy her books all over the world in thirty languages. It seems her
books win awards and break records almost every day. Who is she? J.K. Rowling the
woman who wrote the Harry Potter stories.
What is the secret of her success?
Rowling says she wrote Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone because she wanted a
challenge. She wanted to achieve something special. She likes writing. In fact, she wrote
her first book (called Rabbit) when she was six years old. Perhaps this is the first reason
for her success she chose to do something that she enjoyed.
STEP 1: Do something that you enjoy.
But how did she become such great success? Well, in 1992, Rowling left her job in
England and went to Portugal.
She moved to Portugal to have more time to do what she loved most write.
She worked as an English teacher. She used her free time in the mornings to write Harry
Potter and the Philosophers Stone.

STEP 2: Follow your dream.

She married, but later divorced. She returned home to the U.K. with her baby daughter
Jessica. She lived in Edinburgh in Scotland. She lived in a very small, cold apartment.
Life as a single mother was hard, but she was determined to finish writing Harry Potter
and the Philosophers Stone. She wrote mostly in cafs and while her daughter was
asleep. She had no Money for a computer or typewriter she used a pen and paper. When
thing became difficult, she didnt forget her goal, and she didnt stop working.

30

STEP 3: Never give up.

The road to success was hard for Rowling, but eventually she succeeded.
Her advice to people who want success is simple: Try your best. If you really want to
succeed, then you will. Be prepared to make mistakes learn from them. You have to be
strong, and never give up. Sounds simple, doesnt it?

APRENDIZAJE 13
Lee textos autnticos de temas de inters; localiza informacin especfica, para
satisfacer necesidades acadmicas y personales.

Como t bien sabes, una habilidad muy importante hacia el dominio de una
lengua adems de la produccin oral, la produccin escrita y la comprensin auditiva es la
comprensin lectora. Esta ltima nos permite comprender al emisor o escritor mediante
palabras escritas. Para ello es bsico contar con ciertas estrategias para poder comprender
un texto y poder realizar diversas tareas tanto de ndole personal como acadmico. Ms
importante aun es el hecho de poder leer textos autnticos y que sean de inters para el
lector ya que ello aumenta bastante la motivacin y la curiosidad por intentar comprender
lo que expresa determinado texto.
Una va muy til hacia la comprensin del texto es mediante la identificacin de la idea
principal, la cual generalmente se encuentra al inicio de cada prrafo. Para poder llegar a la
localizacin de tal idea te puedes apoyar en las palabras que se parecen al espaol y que
son mejor conocidas como cognados. Estos te sern de mucha utilidad para extraer la idea
general del texto. A continuacin se te presenta como ejemplo el primer prrafo extrado
de un texto con el cual posteriormente trabajaras. En dicho prrafo aparecern
subrayados algunos cognados as como la idea principal en cursivas.
Adolescence (lat. Adolescere = (to grow) is a transitional stage of physical and mental
development that occurs between childhood and adulthood. This transition involves
biological, social, and psychological changes, though the biological and physiological ones
are the easiest to measure objectively. Historically, puberty has been heavily associated
with teenagers and the onset of adolescent development. In recent years, however, the start
of puberty has seen an increase in preadolescence and extension beyond the teenage years,
making adolescence less simple to discern.

44

A travs de este conjunto de palabras puedes llegar a la comprensin de algunas otras de

origen anglosajn que sean desconocidas por ti; las mismas que pueden ser de suma
importancia para el entendimiento del texto. Mediante el empleo de esta herramienta
(cognados) te ser ms sencillo identificar las ideas principales en un texto y como
consecuencia su comprensin.

I.

As a closing activity, identify one main idea for each one of the paragraphs that
compose the text. Read carefully the third paragraph because it is the
largest. Remember, the most important information answers questions
(what?, who?, where?)

Para realizar la descripcin de algo o alguien es indispensable el uso de

adjetivos calificativos los cuales van a designar tamao, origen, color, material, etc.
Recuerda que en ingls los descriptores siempre se ponen antes de la palabra u objeto al
cual describen a menos que apenas se vayan a introducir.

A big Siberian tiger

A tender kitten

A medium t-shirt
jacket

A Mexican blouse

Intelligent dolphins

A large blue

48

Tall girls

A beautiful woman

A happy baby

Como te diste cuenta para indicar una caracterstica es esencial contra con palabras que
cumplan esta funcin. En el idioma ingls cuando se quiere o intenta comparar algo o
alguien con otra cosa o persona los adjetivos cumplen un papel relevante. Para llevar a
cabo una comparacin se emplean adjetivos manejados como comparativos. Para formar
un comparativo al adjetivo se le agrega la terminacin er si se trata de adjetivos de una
o dos silabas o bien se le antepone la palabra more, ojo, sin la terminacin er si se
trata de un adjetivo de ms de dos silabas.

Observa el siguiente cuadro de ejemplos:

Adjective
cheap
nice
big
small
pretty
happy
furious
beautiful
good
bad

Comparative
Cheaper
Nicer
Bigger
Smaller
Prettier
Happier
more furious
more beautiful
Better

Nota: A estos dos ltimos (good y bad) se les conoce como adjetivos irregulares.

Different types of music.
Music is a form of art. Edgard Varese defined it as "organized sound". Music expresses our
feelings as well emotions in a melodious and pleasant way. Is there anybody who doesnt
like this form of art? Read on to know the various types of music.
Different types of music help in soothing ones disturbed soul, in the growth of
concentration and also enliven us to live life to the fullest. There are varied genres of music
as people have different tastes. For e.g., classical music, rock, jazz, metal, rap, folk etc. But
the objective remains the same. The aim of all music is to touch the core of the heart and
thus music can be called an expression of our hearts saying. To understand and know
about different genres of music, let us have a look at the following genres.

54

Different Music Genres

Classical Music: Classical music is a complex form of music as it requires high musical
skills, like learning the ragas and ability to coordinate with other musicians. One has to
maintain the complex relationship between its emotional flows. If you wish to learn this
music, then you have to go through proper training.
Rock Music: This music genre was originated in the rock and roll era of 1950s. The vocals
are accompanied by guitar, drum and bass. Certain rock groups also use piano, synthesizer,
saxophone, flute, mandolin and sitar for a deeper effect. This type of music has several sub
genres, such as hard rock, progressive rock and metal rock. All these types of rock music
are popular till date.
Metal Music: Metal music emerged after the Second World War. Here the melody of the
song is heavily influenced by the structure of the songs. While in rock music, songwriting
is based within a form; in metal music, the central melody decides the structure of the song.
It is also known as information music.

Hip-hop Music: Hip-hop music always includes the use of instruments such as guitar,
violin, fiddle, piano, bass and drums. In these types of music, the bass is the main
instrument. This can be used in different intensities to emote feelings of anger, pride and
others. This type of music is the result of hip-hop culture and is known as hip-hop music.
This music shows a heavy influence of Jamaican music. The roots of the music are found in
African American and West African music. It was first played by a group of traveling
singers and poets of West Africa.
Wedding Ceremony Music: Wedding music is used in the ceremonies. These can be
classical and modern, according the tastes of people. Some people prefer country
melodies, while others opt for classical music as wedding music. Such music varies
from every culture.
Trance Music: This type of music is usually played in club houses and discotheques. It
originated in the 20th century. This music is characterized by fast tempo and repetitious
beats of the percussion. It has a hypnotic effect on the souls of listeners.
Jazz: This type of music is featured by strong and complex rhythms. The main musical
instruments used for jazz music are cornet, trumpet or violin, that help carry the melody.
This is a rhythmic music and has a forward momentum called "swing". However, in this
music genre, the skilled performer interprets a tune in his own way.
Folk Music: Folk music is a kind of traditional music that is handed down from
generations in every culture. This type of music reflects the emotions of common laity.
Popular music and tribal music are the two sub genres of folk music. This folk music shows

55

the social upheaval that lies among various classes of people. This also portrays their
struggle for survival and their culture.
Techno Music: Techno music is also known as fusion music. This became popular towards
the middle part of the 1980s. This is a form of electronic dance music and based on African
American music styles like funk, electro and electric jazz. It features fast beats and this
form was initiated by Juan Atkins, Kevin Saunderson and
Derrick May.
Opera Music: Opera music first emerged in Italy in the 1600s. This genre has a remarkable
combination of theatrical art and musical invention and is specifically played in the
theaters. This has greater appeal for its delightful orchestral accompaniment. The preludes
and interludes of this music set the tone for the action on-stage.

We use this tense to express habits and routines.
When the subjects...He, She and It are used, you need to add an -S or an -ES to the verbs in
order to be grammatically correct.
Example:

Mary can be replaced for SHE
Peter kissES his girlfriend every day.

My dog playS with its ball.
My dog for IT
The verbs ending in:
-ss

kisses

-sh

washes

-ch

watches

-x

fixes

-o

goes

You NEED to add the -ES ending.

For the negative form you have to use the auxiliary Does not or doesn't and the verb in
simple form.
Ex. Mary does not watch TV.
65
