Meeting 4 March 24, 2015

Words can be organized into sentences in many different ways

Who brought the paper inside? Who talked to you today? Who went to dinner? Who ate the cake? Who is calling? Who will reach the phone first? Who are you? Who is she?

What is it? What are you doing? What is you name? What does the speaker say? What did they do in their holiday? What was the greatest moment in you life? What have you done to revise your work?

 Where do they live?  Where does the conversation probably take place?  Where do we go to register for graduation?

 Who taught you to ski? (active) By whom were you taught to ski? (passive)  Who ate the last cookie? (active) The last cookie was eaten by whom? (passive)

This is a noun that requires a preposition to be used correctly in a sentence. Prepositions are words like "above," "around," "under" and "over" that are used to link nouns and phrases to other words in a sentence. The noun that a preposition introduces is called the object of the preposition. For example, in the phrase "under the table," "under" is the preposition and "table" is the object of the preposition. A phrase with a noun and a preposition is called a prepositional phrase. Here is a way to use it in a sentence: "The cat was under the table." If you like, you can use multiple prepositional phrases in your sentence: "The cat was under the table and on top of the rug."

They are not working hard They will not be working hard They had not worked hard They have not been working hard They might not have been working hard They aren’t working hard. They won’t be working hard They hadn’t been working hard

To construct the negation for all other verbs in the simple present or the simple past, we have to use the helping verb do + not before the verb itself. Example:We speak English. → We do not speak English.Something to note here is that the verb itself always remains in its basic form when being negated. Only the helping verb do is conjugated. We use does for the third person singular in the simple present (but do for all other persons) and did for all forms in the simple past. Example:They speak English. → They do not speak English.He speaks English. → He does not speak English.They spoke English. → They did not speak English.

The compound tenses and the passive already have a helping verb that we also use when negating them. All we have to do is add the little word not between the helping verb and the main verb. Example:They are speaking English. → They are not speaking English. (present progressive)They have spoken English. → They have not spoken English. (present perfect simple)They will speak English. → They will not speak English. (future I)English is spoken in that country. → English is not spoken in that country. (passive)

They live in London. → We are hungry. → She has a cat. → He works a lot. → I have lunch at one o'clock 

We went to school yesterday. → The bus stopped at the bus stop. → He saw you. → They were old. → Mel had a sister. →

Chris was watching a film. → He will have played the guitar. → They would have waited for you. → I have written a letter. → She is going to call you tomorrow. →

They do not live in London We are not hungry She has not got a cat He does not work a lot I do not have lunch at one o’clock

We did not go to school yesterday The bus did not stop at the bus stop He did not see you They were not old Mel did not have a sister
