The mystery of the Red Truck.
It
has been confirmed that late on the night of the sixth of July, a large red
truck 1 into
the bakery on Maryland Street. After an initial investigation by police, it is
now clear that the truck had no driver at all. The locals are asking a simple
question: “Where was the driver?” If the police want to solve this mystery,
they will need the CCTV footage from the street. One of the locals said: “We’re
all quite worried about a truck with no driver. This truck has never been seen
in the neighborhood before. If we’d seen that truck before, we 2 this mystery now.”
Many locals share the same concerns. They want to know what’s happening in
their town. A witness at the crime scene told police: “There was a loud noise
coming 3 the
truck while it was going towards the building and its speed.... it was
unbelievable. If it had been going slower, I would’ve had a chance to see the
driver. But all I saw was the truck speeding into the bakery as fast as it
could.’’ The police have already 4 with eleven other residents but no one knows any further
details about the incident. Superintendent Amanda Slippers remarked: “This is a
tough case. The truck license plate belongs to this town, 5 nobody has seen it
here. According to the town records, the owner of the truck moved away from
here years 6.
No one knows where to. If we located the owner, we'd probably solve this
mystery.’’ If a truck moves, then it has a driver. Well, maybe we should change
this basic assumption on account of this mysterious red truck. Sally Nicholls, a
local reporter

Please write a brief situation happened with you
third part.
1. Black Friday
Every year, the day after Thanksgiving is the unofficial beginning of Christmas season. So, on the Friday after Thanksgiving, also called Black Friday, Americans begin their Christmas shopping.
2. Outlet mall
3. Yard sale / garage sale
” This is when people sell their old clothes, furniture and other items in front of their houses—in their yards or garages. These sales are great places to find cheap used goods.
4. To Bargain (verb)
You can ask a seller if it’s OK to pay less
for an item you want.
This is not usually OK in America—except at
yard sales. So, if you see a t-shirt for $4 at a yard sale, you can ask for a
lower price and bargain with the person selling stuff. For
example:
5. “A steal”
It’s wrong to steal—to take something without paying for it. But if someone tells you their new dress was “a steal,” that’s a very good thing. That means they did not pay much for it. They paid so little that it almost felt like stealing. Actually, the meaning of “a steal” is similar to “a bargain.”
6. 50% off / $10 off
If a store is having a sale, many of their items will cost less than normal. This is called a discount. Usually you’ll see signs like:
50% off:
The price is now 50% less than it was originally.
7. Overpriced
When a store wants you to pay too much for
something, that thing is overpriced.
·
Don’t buy that couch here, it’s way overpriced.
I think you can find a cheaper couch elsewhere.
8. Stingy
It’s not always the store that charges too
much. Sometimes, the price is fair but you don’t want to spend much money.
If you’re unwilling to spend money—even when
you should spend money—you’re stingy. Stingy is
the opposite of generous.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION.
1. In this part we are going to learn about the passive voice. For it we need the use of the verb TO BE and the main verb in past participle.
La voz pasiva es una estructura muy empleada en
inglés, en la cual lo que se enfatiza es el objeto, más que al sujeto. Es
indispensable el empleo del verbo TO BE y del verbo principal en pasado
participio.
What do you remember about
the verb TO BE? And how many verbs can you write in past participle?
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
2. Let’s see the following chart in order to learn
about the passive voice.
En este ejemplo en particular el sujeto HE
(él) pasó a ser parte del complemento de la oración, mientras que el objeto THE
DOOR (la puerta) se convirtió en el sujeto. Es decir, la oración
normal diría: él abrió la puerta; pero en voz pasiva, dándole prioridad al
objeto quedaría así: la puerta es abierta por él. Tenga siempre en cuenta pasar
el verbo principal a participio pasado. Según el ejemplo anterior: OPEN
= OPENED. Ya que es un verbo regular. Cabe resaltar, que de igual manera es
importante emplear la palabra BY (por).
EXERCISES:
1. Write the words in the correct order to create
sentences.

first part.
In this section you are going to learn about music.
but first answer these questions.
Do you download
music? Do you buy CDs? Do you listen to music on your phone? Do you prefer to
watch music or just to listen? What about the old-fashioned radio? Have you
ever seen your favourite band or singer perform live? There are so many ways to
discover, buy and listen to music!
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Music videos
British teenagers
like to watch their music online. Watching music on video streaming sites on
the internet is now more popular than listening to the radio with young British
people. Popular videos can quickly become extremely popular internationally.
Justin Bieber’s song ‘Baby’ was the most watched music video on YouTube until
2012. Then, PSY’s ‘Gangnam Style’ became the first video to get a billion
views. Now, it’s quite common for videos to pass the billion mark. Things can
change quickly on YouTube!
Downloading music
Downloading music
is a popular choice for young Brits. The BPI (an organization which promotes
the interests of British music) says that people in the UK prefer downloading
singles rather than albums. In the UK you can download a single for about £1
and an album for around £10. Using file-sharing websites to download music is
often illegal of course but some people still continue to get their music this
way. Record companies and many musicians are very unhappy that people can
listen to their music without paying for it.
Live music
The O2 in London
is the second largest live music arena in Europe. There you can see
world-famous bands such as One Direction, Justin Bieber, Scissor Sisters,
Prince, The Rolling Stones, Elton John, and Take That. This massive stadium has
space for 20,000 people. It also has 548 toilets! Tickets are not cheap. You
can pay more than £50 to see a concert at The O2.
What about free
live music? There are music festivals across Britain every year that are
completely free of charge. Last year more than 150,000 people went to the
Tramlines free music festival in Sheffield in the north of England. The two-day
festival is held every July. Last year there were 900 performances in total
including local bands as well as music from all over the world.
Music on TV
The X Factor is a British
television music competition to find new talented singers. The 'X Factor' of
the title refers to the difficult-to-define quality that makes a star. The show
began in 2004 and is still popular. X Factor singers perform
on a stage in front of the judges and a live audience. After the performance
the audience at home can vote by phone for their favourite acts. Many winners
then go on to get a UK number-one single. But you don’t have to win The
X Factor to become famous: One Direction, the massively popular
British boy band, competed in 2010 but they didn’t win, they came third!
What kind of music?
What are you and
your friends listening to these days? Hip hop, dance, rock, heavy metal, rap,
urban, reggae … individual tastes are very varied amongst British teenagers. If
a type of music exists then there’s somebody who likes it. But a shopping
Centre in Birmingham, central England, recently discovered what kind of music
some local teenagers don’t like. This is what happened: shoppers and shop
owners complained to the police about teenagers behaving badly in the shopping
Centre. When a new sound system started playing Bach, Mozart and Beethoven, the
antisocial behavior stopped. The young people causing problems had gone!
Classical music was clearly not popular with these particular teenagers.
Are you listening
to music as you read this?

Second part.
in this part,
you are going to learn about graffities, the origins, kinds of them, and
purposes. do you like them? ______________________________
GRAFFITI:
Graffiti
has existed since people learned how to scratch symbols in rocks. Graffiti is
any image, symbol or letters made on public property. While some people still
make scratches in rocks, concrete or buildings, most graffiti is now made with
spray paint or markers.
Is graffiti vandalism? Some
graffiti is ugly. Some graffiti, called tagging, is just the name or initials
of a person. It is often unreadable. The only purpose of tagging seems to be to
quickly spray your initials on as many different surfaces as possible. Nobody
likes tags except the taggers.
Is graffiti art? Some graffiti is
artistic and takes time, skill and talent to create. It can be nice to look at.
The purpose of some graffiti is to spread social messages or political
messages. Some cities have places where walls or other surfaces can be used by
people to create pieces of graffiti art.

In this section, we are going to learn about phrasal
verbs. Do you identify verbs like: sit down, stand up, come in…? what
others do you remember? Write on the blank
__________________________________________________________________________
Phrasal
Verbs
A phrasal verb is a special
kind of verb that consists of two (or three) parts. The first part is always a
verb. The next part is a word such as across, after, away, back, down, in,
into, off, on, out, over, or up. In a phrasal verb, this second
part is called a particle.
Rule 1. A phrasal verb must have at least two parts: VERB
+ particle.
Rule 2. Phrasal verbs present a huge vocabulary challenge
because most phrasal verbs are idioms. As such, the meaning of a phrasal verb
as a unit is usually very different from the meanings of the individual verb
and the particle: the meaning of come across is not equal to the meaning
of come and across.
Rule 3. Like other common words, a phrasal verb can have
more than one meaning: The airplane took off is not the same as Their
business took off or I took off my shoes.
Let’s learn some of the most common verbs are used as phrasal verbs.

Second part.
i
When people hear about sustainable, off-the-grid
living, they usually picture primitive homes divorced from the comforts of the
21st century. And rightfully so, as most sustainable solutions proposed until
now have fit that description. Earthships, however, offer all of the comforts
of modern homes and more in a sustainable way.
The Earthship was designed as a structure that would
be free of the constraints of centralized utilities, on which most modern
shelters rely. Earthships must be able to create their own utilities, and to
utilize readily available sustainable materials.
Even the most arid of climates can provide enough water for daily use
through only a rain-harvesting system. Water collected
in this fashion is used for every household activity except flushing toilets.
The water used for flushing toilets has been used at least once already:
frequently it is filtered waste-water from sinks and showers, and described as
"Greywater". That used ‘grey water’ is then pumped into
the greenhouse to water the plants. After being cleaned by the plants, the
water is pumped up into the bathrooms for use in the toilets. After being
flushed, the now ‘black water’ is pumped to the exterior garden to give
nutrients to non-edible plants.
Earthships are designed to collect and store their own
energy from a variety of sources. The majority of electrical energy is
harvested from the sun and wind. Photovoltaic panels and wind turbines located
on or near the Earthship generate DC energy that is then stored in several
types of deep-cycle batteries. The space in which the batteries are kept is
usually a special, purpose-built room placed on the roof. Additional energy, if
required, can be obtained from gasoline-powered generators or by integrating
with the city grid.
Each Earthship is outfitted with one or two
greenhouses that grow crops year-round, no matter what the climate is. The most
brilliant piece of engineering in the Earthship is their ability to sustain
comfortable temperatures year-round. This phenomenon results from the solar
heat being absorbed and stored by ‘thermal mass’ — or tyres filled with dirt,
which make up the structure of the Earthship. The thermal mass acts as a heat
sink, releasing or absorbing heat when the interior cools and heats up,
respectively.
Much of the materials used to build Earthships are
recycled. For starters, the structure is built with used tyres filled with
dirt! The walls (above the tyres) are created by placing plastic and glass
bottles in concrete. Earthships are exorbitantly cheaper than conventional
houses. The most basic Earthships cost as little as $7000 with the most
glamorous models costing $70,000 and up, depending on how flashy you want to be
with your decorating. With all of your basic needs provided for and NO bills
each month, you’re free! You don’t have to work a job you hate just to survive.
So you can focus your time on doing what you love, and bettering the world
around you.
The most powerful thing Earthships do is force people
to think differently about how they live. If housing can be this awesome, and
be beneficial to the environment, then what else can we change? What else can
become simpler, cheaper and better at the same time?
