In this section, you are going to learn about modal verbs. Could you remember some of them? _________________________________________________________________

En el siguiente cuadro encuentran un Amplio resumen de los verbos modales más empleados en inglés, junto con un ejemplo y los distintos usos donde se pueden emplear, parte de su misión es averiguar el significado de cada uno de ellos; por ejemplo, CAN es poder…



Los verbos modales son verbos auxiliares (esto es, que depende de otro); que se usan para indicar lo que se llama «modalidad»: habilidad, posibilidad, permiso u obligación. Que no pueden funcionar como un verbo principal, Esto quiere decir que no se conjugan con las personas gramaticales, por lo que: No tienen infinitivo, por ejemplo, no existe to can; a diferencia de los verbos auxiliares “be”, “do” y “have” que sí pueden funcionar como un verbo principal.

2Read the following text and do the activities below. And underline the modal verbs in the text

                                              GLOBAL WARMING:

Since the industrial revolution 200 years ago, these activities have increased, releasing more greenhouse gases into the atmosphere and upsetting the balance. More gases mean that more of the heat trying to escape from the Earth back into spaces is trapped. When more heat is trapped by the greenhouse gases the Earth becomes warmer, this is known as global warming.

Many scientists now agree that our activities are making the natural greenhouse effect stronger. If we carry on polluting the atmosphere with greenhouse gases scientists believe that it will have a dangerous effect on the Earth.
THE EFFECTS:
A warmer Earth might lead to a change in the weather, including hotter summers. This may seem like a good idea, but a rise of a few degrees in temperature could change the conditions on Earth which are at present just right for life.
At the moment it is difficult for scientists to say how great the changes on Earth will be and where the changes will happen.
THE WEATHER
Scientists agree that in Britain our winter and summer temperatures will increase and the weather will be warmer. In winter it may also rain more but in summer it may become drier. In other parts of the world the effect will be different; some countries will become much hotter while others become cooler. There may be more storms, floods and drought, but we do not know which areas of the world will be affected.
SEA LEVELS:
Higher temperatures will make the water of the seas and oceans expand. Some of the ice cream ice caps and mountains glaciers will melt, and this melted ice will also cause the seas to rise.
Higher sea levels will threaten the low-lying coastal areas of the world, such as the Netherlands and Bangladesh. Throughout the world millions of people and areas of land will be ruined because of floodwater. In Britain, East Anglia and the Thames estuary will be at risk from the rising sea.
FARMING:
The changes in the weather will affect the type of crops grown. Some crops, such as wheat and rice grow better when I tis warmer, but other plants, such as maize and sugarcane do not. Changes in the amount of rainfall will also affect plant growth.
The effect of a change in the weather on plant growth may lead to food shortages in some countries of the world. Brazil, parts of Africa, southeast of China will be affected most and many people could suffer from hunger.
  WATER:
Throughout the world there is a great demand for water, and in many regions, such as the Sahel in Africa, there is not enough water for the people. Changes in the weather will bring more rainfall in some countries, but others will have less rainfall. In Britain the southeast will be at risk from drought.
AT RISK:
It has taken millions of years for life to adapt to the conditions on Earth. A climate that changes too quickly will alter these conditions and affect the homes of plants and animals throughout the world. For example, the polar bears and seals will have to find new feeding grounds as the ice melts.
Many animals and plants may not be able to cope with these changes and could die. This could lead to local or world-wide extinction of certain species.
PEOPLE:
Climate change will affect everyone but some populations will be a greater risk. For example, countries whose coastal regions have a large population, such as Egypt and China, may see whole populations move inland to avoid flood. The effect on people will depend on how well we can adapt to the changes and how much we can to reduce global climate change.
WHAT CAN WE DO TO SLOW DOWN GLOBAL WARMING?
Governments throughout the world have already taken action to start reducing global warming. In their plan they hope to reduce the amount of man-made emissions of greenhouse gases. Everyone can help in some way to slow down global warming.
About half of the enhanced greenhouse effect is caused by our use of energy, especially from fossil fuels. Other sources of energy could be used which do not emit carbon dioxide, for example wind power, solar (power from the sun’s rays) and wave power. In the home and the school we must learn to use energy efficiently and not waste it. We can make buildings more efficient, for example by putting in loft insulation and double- glazing.
Much of the rubbish we throw can be recycled, such as glass bottles and jars, steel and aluminum cans, plastic bottles and waste paper. Recycling used materials uses less energy than making new ones. Composting fruit and vegetable waste reduces the amount of rubbish buried at rubbish dumps.
We should try and reduce our use of the car by traveling on public transport, cycling and walking.
If more forests were planted they could take in more of the carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.

SECOND PERIOD.  (2ND P)


      second part



1.       In this section you are going to learn about some famous people, so in each biography given you can appreciate their goals and personal aspects.  I hope you identify them and share with your family.

 see the video at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ThZj9TEMwgE 

Worksheet: Biographies.

Christopher Columbus: 

Known as “the man who discovered America”, Columbus was in fact trying to find a westward sea passage to the Orient when he landed in South America in 1492.

He was born in 1451, he wanted to discover a sea route to the Indies, so King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella of Spain agreed to sponsor an expedition, and on 3 August 1492, Columbus set sail across the Atlantic.

The weeks later, land was sighted. On 12 October, Columbus and a group of his men set foot on an island in what later became known as the Bahamas. Believing that they had reached the indies, the newcomers dubbed the natives “Indians”.


He had actually discovered South America which later became known as the “New world” by the Spaniards. He returned to Spain in triumph and was made “admiral of the Seven Seas” and viceroy of the Indies. Within a few months, he set off on a second and larger voyage. He brought back to Spain many discoveries and spices including a very hot peppery spice that now we call paprika.

 

John Cabot:


Cabot was an Italian-born explorer who, in attempting to find a direct route to Asia, became the first modern European to discover North America.

Cabot was born in Italy but in around 1490, he moved to Bristol, England. In May 1497, with the support of the king Henry VII, Cabot sailed west from Bristol in the hope of finding a route to Asia.


On 24 June, he sighted land and called it New-found-land. He believed it was Asia and claimed it for England. It was actually the coast of North America but his maps did help explores in the next century such as Sir Walter Raleigh.

 

Vasco da Gama:

Da Gama was a Portuguese explorer and navigator, and the first person to sail directly from Europe to India.

He was born in about 1460 into a noble family. In 1497, the king of Portugal asked him to find a route via the sea to India. In May 1498 after sailing around Africa they reached Calicut (now Kozhikode), India.

This voyage launched the all-water trade route from Europe to Asia. On his return to Portugal, the king immediately dispatched another expedition to secure a trading post at Calicut. These exhibitions led to an increase in the trade of Indian spices, particularly pepper.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION


      In this part, we are going to learn about TAG QUESTIONS, which are short questions that are used after a statement. They are often used for checking information that we think we know is true.

Para emplear TAG QUESTIONS es necesario reconocer los diferentes auxiliares que se emplean en el idioma inglés, así como reconocer el tiempo verbal en el que se hace el enunciado.

What do you remember about questions and auxiliaries? Write some

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________





Como se puede observar en los cuadros anteriores, las TAG QUESTIONS son preguntas cortas que se emplean para confirmar o verificar una información. Es importante tener en cuenta que, si el enunciado es afirmativo, la pregunta se hará negativa, y, si el enunciado es negativo, la pregunta se hará positiva. Esta pregunta equivale a decir en español: ¿(en) verdad, cierto? Eso si siempre verificando el tiempo verbal y su respectivo auxiliar. Después del enunciado, siempre se colocará una coma (,). Para la respuesta, esta se dará de acuerdo con el enunciado, es decir enunciado afirmativo, respuesta afirmativa…

Let`s review the auxiliaries that we use in English.

Present simple

Past simple

future

Present progressive

Past progressive

Present perfect

Past perfect

modals

Am – is – are – do - does

did

will

Am – is - are

Was - were

Have - has

had

Can could may should

 Exercise: 

With your family, play the following board game and create a tag question for each one.


Example:

1.       You’re John, aren’t you?   Tú eres John, ¿verdad?

2.       You live near here, don’t you?  Vives cerca de aquí, ¿no es cierto?

                                                                  MODALS:

Modals are those helping verbs, which express the “mode” or “manner” of the actions indicated by the main verbs. They express modes such as ability, possibility, probability, permission, obligation, etc.

The most commonly used modals are: shall, should, will, would, can, could, may, might, must, ought to, used to.

Modals are used to:

·         Ask permission: pedir permiso.  may, can, could (poder)

 

Example: May I come in?   ¿Puedo pasar?

                Can I use your pen, please?   ¿puedo utilizar tu esfero, por favor?

                May you help me?   ¿puedes ayudarme?

 

·         Make a request:  hacer una solicitud.    can, could.   (poder)

 

Example: Could you please give the doctor’s telephone number?   ¿me puedes dar el número telefónico del doctor, por favor?

 

·         Express a possibility: expresar una posibilidad. may, might, could   (poder)

 

                Example: It might rain during the night.   Podría llover durante la noche.

Summary:

 

Modals are helping verbs.

Used with the base form of the verb, modals create verbal phrases.

Modals do not change form.

Modals never ends in “s” even in 3rd person singular.

Use “not” to make negative sentences after the modal verb.

Put modal verbs at the beginning of the sentence to create questions.

In this final section, we are going to do an exercise about reading comprehension. Read and answer the questions below.

ALFRED NOBEL AND HIS LEGACY

When Alfred Nobel was 34 years old, he invented dynamite and 22 years later, smokeless gunpowder. These are hardly things one would associate with a name that has become synonymous with peace. However, peace is the subject of just one of the six prizes that are awarded each year in the name of the Swedish chemist. The other prizes are for physics, chemistry, medicine, literature and economics.

The Nobel Peace Prize is awarded by a Norwegian committee, while the other five prizes are awarded by Swedish committees. The reason behind this has never been clear. One argument suggests that the Norwegians had shown a special interest in mediation, arbitration and the peaceful solution of international disputes, and was therefore the natural choice.

The Nobel Peace Prize has existed for 104 years, and within that time about 70 of the individual winners have been men and about 17 of the individual winners have been women.

The first woman to win the prize was Nobel's friend Bertha von Sutter exactly 100 years ago, in 1905, and the most recent was Wangari Maathai in 2004 for her contribution to sustainable development, democracy and peace. The other Nobel prizes can only be awarded to individuals (up to a maximum of three), but the Nobel Peace Prize can be given to institutions and organizations as well as individuals.

This year's prize was awarded jointly to the International Atomic Energy Agency and its

Director General, Dr. Mohamed ElBaradei, for their efforts to prevent nuclear energy from being used for military purposes and to ensure that nuclear energy for peaceful purposes is used in the safest possible way. The ceremony will take place, as usual, on December 10th at the City Hall, Oslo, Norway.
