AFFIRMATIVE: REGULAR
• To form the past simple we add –ED to the infinitive.
• All persons have the same form:
I/ you/ we/ they/ walk+ed He she/ it
play+ed
• Spelling changes
 Verbs ending in cons-y →ied
I study I stud
→ ied
Monosyllables verbs (CVC) → double the consonant
He stops He stop
→ ped
 Verbs ending in –e → d
She dances She dance
→ d
AFFIRMATIVE IRREGULAR
• Irregular verbs don’t have a fixed pattern.
• You must learn irregular verbs by heart.
I run I
→ ran
He drives He
→ drove
They fly They
→ flew
• Be careful: most of the verbs we often use are
irregular.

Phrasal verbs ??????
These combinations create a meaning different from the original verb. The
meaning is not always obvious from looking at the words
alone; sometimes the meaning is completely different. It can have a literal
meaning that is easy to understand because the meaning is
clear from the words. It can also have an idiomatic meaning that cannot be
understood by just by looking at the words themselves.
The same phrasal verb can have different meanings.
(Example: Thomas took his shoes off. / The aeroplane took off on time.)
A phrasal verb is a multi-word verb that consists of a
verb and one or two particles. A particle may be an
adverb or a preposition, or an adverb plus a
preposition.
Son verbos acompañados de una o más partículas (by, on, off, along, up, etc.) con las
que forman una unidad y entonces adquieren un significado distinto del que tienen
por sí solos.
‐ The judge has put off the hearing. (El juez ha aplazado el juicio.)

Connectors / Linking words are very
important because they indicate the
relationship between ideas in
sentences and paragraphs. They
have different functions and
positions in the sentences.
Linkers of contrast.
Read the examples and the explanation: In spite of / despite / although
• In spite of, despite and although are all used to show a contrast but there are
differences in the structures used with them. After in spite of and despite we use
a noun or a pronoun. (or a gerund) See the examples:
• We enjoyed our camping holiday in spite of the rain.
• Despite the pain in his leg he completed the marathon.
• Despite having all the necessary qualifications, they didn’t offer me the job.
“The only difference between in spite of and despite is the ‘of’.”
• After although we use a subject and a verb.
• We enjoyed our camping holiday although it rained every day. Although he worked
very hard, he didn’t manage to pass the exam. The holiday was great although the hotel
wasn’t very nice.
Exercises
• V.- Fill in the gaps with in spite of and although. Follow the example.

Jack the Ripper
Jack the Ripper is a pseudonym given to an unidentified serial
killer (or killers) active in the largely impoverished Whitechapel
area and adjacent districts of London in the second half of
1888. The name is taken from a letter to the Central News
Agency by someone claiming to be the murderer, published at
the time of the killings. Although many theories have been
advanced, Jack the Ripper's identity may never be proven.
The legends surrounding the Ripper murders have become a
complex muddle of genuine historical research, freewheeling
conspiracy theory and dubious folklore. The lack of a confirmed
identity for the killer has allowed subsequent authors, historians
and mostly amateur sleuths—dubbed Ripperologists—to point
their fingers at a wide variety of candidates. Newspapers,
whose circulation had been growing during this era, bestowed
widespread and enduring notoriety on the killer due to the
savagery of the murders and the failure of police to effect a
capture, with the Ripper sometimes escaping discovery by mere
minutes.
• Victims were women earning income as casual
prostitutes. Typical Ripper murders were perpetrated
in a public or semi-public place; the victim's throat
was cut, after which the cadaver was subjected to
abdominal and sometimes other mutilations such as
those found in lust murder. Many now believe that
the victims were first strangled in order to silence
them. Due to the nature of the wounds on some
presumed Ripper victims, several of whom had
internal organs removed, it has been proposed that
the killer had a degree of surgical or medical skill, or
was perhaps a butcher, although this point, like most
of the beliefs about the killer and facts in the case, is
in dispute.
• 1. The murders were committed in 1888. A) True. :B) False. C)We
don't know.
• 2. The name was taken from a letter received by the Central News
Agency. A)True.B)False. C)We don't know.
• 3. The killer was never identified. A)True.B)False. C)We don't
know.
• 4. The killer may have had medical skills. A)True.B)False.
C)We don't know.
• 5. The killer may have been a butcher. A)True.B)False.
C)We don't know.
Modals verbs of deduction
• Look at the sentences and underline the modal verb in each sentence.
Follow the example.
• 0. He must live near here because he comes to work on foot.
• 1. Come inside and get warm – you must be freezing out there.
• 2. You’re a zookeeper? That must be very interesting.
• 3. Did you hear that? I think there might be a burglar downstairs.
Explanation
• See more examples and read the explanation.
• 1. must + verb is used to describe something we are sure is true.
For example: "It must be raining because I can hear the rain hitting
the roof."
• 2. may, might, or could + verb are used to describe something
which is possiblytrue. For example: "You look tired, you might be
working too hard."
• 3. can't + verb is used to describe something which we are certain
is not true. For example: "This can't be the right street because it
doesn't make sense with what is on the map."
• Read the sentences and choose the right alternative.
• 1.- Jack .......... be at home. His jacket is still here.
a) might b) can't c) mustn´t
• 2.- I .......... still have your book, but I'm not certain.
a) might b) must c) can't
• 3.- This ....... be the right answer. The others are definitely wrong.

    Phrasal verbs ?????? Thesecombinations create a meaning different from the original verb. The meaning is not always obvious from looking at the words alone; sometimes the meaning is completely different. It can have a literal meaning that is easy to understand because the meaning is clear from the words. It can also have an idiomatic meaning that cannot be understood by just by looking at the words themselves. The same phrasal verb can have different meanings. (Example: Thomas took his shoes off. / The aeroplane took off on time.) A phrasal verb is a multi-word verb that consists of a verb and one or two particles. A particle may be an adverb or a preposition, or an adverb plus a preposition.

    Jack the Ripper Jackthe Ripper is a pseudonym given to an unidentified serial killer (or killers) active in the largely impoverished Whitechapel area and adjacent districts of London in the second half of 1888. The name is taken from a letter to the Central News Agency by someone claiming to be the murderer, published at the time of the killings. Although many theories have been advanced, Jack the Ripper's identity may never be proven.
  • 52.
    The legends surroundingthe Ripper murders have become a complex muddle of genuine historical research, freewheeling conspiracy theory and dubious folklore. The lack of a confirmed identity for the killer has allowed subsequent authors, historians and mostly amateur sleuths—dubbed Ripperologists—to point their fingers at a wide variety of candidates. Newspapers, whose circulation had been growing during this era, bestowed widespread and enduring notoriety on the killer due to the savagery of the murders and the failure of police to effect a capture, with the Ripper sometimes escaping discovery by mere minutes.
  • 53.
    • Victims werewomen earning income as casual prostitutes. Typical Ripper murders were perpetrated in a public or semi-public place; the victim's throat was cut, after which the cadaver was subjected to abdominal and sometimes other mutilations such as those found in lust murder. Many now believe that the victims were first strangled in order to silence them. Due to the nature of the wounds on some presumed Ripper victims, several of whom had internal organs removed, it has been proposed that the killer had a degree of surgical or medical skill, or was perhaps a butcher, although this point, like most of the beliefs about the killer and facts in the case, is in dispute.
