Unit 2

Modal Verbs. Degrees of certainty Grammar Explanation We use modals of certainty to make deductions or assumptions, that is, to make judgments and opinions about a situation in the present. These modal verbs are: must, can't/couldn't, should/ought to, may, might and could. We use must when we have reasons to be sure of something. We use can't/couldn't when we think something is impossible. We use should/ ought to where we think something is quite sure and have a big possibility of happening. Might, may and could are used in situations where the speaker is not sure of the deduction or assumption he makes due to lack of information or because it is not evident. Examples: MUST Subject + must + infinitive He is a biologist, he must know a lot about animals. CAN'T This jacket can't belong to Mike. It's too small. SHOULD/OUGHT TO She should be here soon. (It is probable, not certain.) MAY /MIGHT /COULD She might/may/ could  tell us what happene...

Honesy is the best policy unit 2

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hkUSjaGiGzk I Found this video very interesting. It is about Honesty, which means it is closely related to Unit 2. ´´Honesy is the best policy´´ This girl has a clear English, and clear pronunciation. I hope you can take advantage of it. Power ofHonesty  The power of honesty — increase your honestly threshold. Honesty is the superior strategy because those who play games of deception, or outright lie, waste a lot of creative energy. They are also not being authentic, which will lead to eruptions, crises, and neuroses. An important distinction is to be made between honesty with others and honesty with yourself. Being honest with yourself is absolutely, 100% critical at all times. Never, ever, is there a case where you should be allowing self- deception. Honesty with other people is highly desirable, but virtually impossible on a practical level in everyday life. White lies, or omissions of information, are simply necessary to function...

UNIT 3 THE BOLD AND THE BASHFUL

Exercise I - Write some paragraphs using the words of the vocabulary.      People who suffer from the shyness syndrome are reticent and aloof .   In other words , they experience a phobia toward society. Shyness is caused by the low self-esteem some people have and the lack of confidence on theirselves. Also, shy people feel afraid of making mistakes and others laugh at them. In some cases, people with a handicap feel inferior and ashamed because of their physical limitations. Moreover, people with chronic shyness go through many adverse situations and lose big amounts of opportunities.       On the other hand, extroverted people are sociable, outgoing,  and dynamic. They are the center of attention wherever they go, love sharing with others, and express their ideas with determination. When extroverted people find their kindred soul (s), they feel extremely satisfied because they have similar likes, so they can understand each...

Unit three The Bold And The Bashful

Being shy is uncomfortable or as we would say difficult because shyness often does not allow us to express our feelings or doubts or to present ourselves as a group since stage fear invades us and does not allow us to say what we focus on. The shy person, sometimes knowing the answer to a question, does not say it due to being wrong and he also loses himself from participating in important work or activities due to the fear of showing up or being in a group. On the other hand, the bold person is quite the opposite, he is always willing and prepared to win, he does not know fear, nor is he afraid of losing or making mistakes, he always leaves ready for anything, he is daring, ready and ready to live this life if he has to fight This is no one limps you and always put to succeed in everything this person is more social than normal loves to be in the center of the public likes to socialize with all kinds of people. I personally consider myself a shy person since you are a hundred afra...

Unit two Hosty Is the Best policy

For me, honesty is the main complement in a person's life. When she is honest, she does not know the way to lie, she is bothered by what they will say, and she thinks that they will discover it is that this value does not allow her to make the mistake of speaking lies. Honesty is like a weapon that defends those who have it and defines them as people of values; being honest is the best thing that can be cultivated in a person's life, because when you are honest you enjoy many things in between. that surrounds us. Even more today that there are few people with this quality; finding people with this value is very difficult is like finding a needle in a haystack, since people have lost those values ​​things that perhaps they did not learn from their parents .

Comment on the internet and other addictions

Unit.1 The Internet and Other Addictions Comment on the internet and other addictions      Technology is changing the nature of problems.       The internet today has become an integral part of daily life that facilitates communication, education, and entertainment. The behavioral pattern of excessive internet usage has similarities to substance addiction, such as tolerance, withdrawal, repeated failure to reduce or quit, and impairment in daily life. Yet, there is no consistent physiological change that accompanies excessive use of the internet, as there is in excessive substance use.        Internet addiction, also described as pathological internet use, is defined as an individual’s inability to control his or her use of the internet, which eventually causes psychological, social, school and/or work difficulties in a person’s life. Addiction is a psychological and physical inability to stop c...
