Child labour refers to employing children in work that deprives them of their childhood by interfering with their education and harming them mentally, physically, socially or morally. It occurs due to lack of access to education, low skilled jobs with exploitative wages, and denies adult employment opportunities. This perpetuates poverty by leading to early physical decay, marriages, and economic insecurity and low quality of life. Examples where child labour is prevalent include gold mining, cocoa production, and early marriages due to economic insecurity.

Files and folders are used to organize data on a computer. A file is a collection of data stored together, often inside a folder. Examples of common file types used by supervisors include text (.txt), Excel (.xls, .csv), Word (.doc), PDF (.pdf), and graphics (.jpg, .mov, .tiff, .avi). Software programs are designed to use specific file extensions, though mistakes can occur when saving, moving, or sharing files. It is important to understand the difference between file names and extensions to ensure files are organized and accessible.

The document discusses what the author learned from their preliminary task that helped improve their main task. Specifically:
- Their Photoshop skills greatly increased, allowing them to create a neater, more professional main task piece. They discovered functions like shading, vibrance control, and filters.
- They learned how even small Photoshop functions can make a big difference. They also received guidance from a graphic designer on using tools like the clone stamp.
- Considering the target audience was important for tailoring the front cover design. The preliminary task allowed experimentation while the main task incorporated lessons to create a very professional piece.
This report summarizes nine unconventional energy resources including coal, coalbed methane, gas hydrates, tight gas sands, shale gas and oil, geothermal, oil sands, oil shale, and uranium. Coal and uranium are expected to supply a significant portion of the world's energy in coming years. Recent developments in technologies like horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing have enabled increased production of natural gas from shale and tight sandstones in the United States and other areas of the world. Research on other unconventional resources such as gas hydrates and geothermal energy continues to advance.

2. De past simple in vragen
• als je vraagt naar iets dat in het verleden gebeurd is
• dan ziet de vraag er (heel vaak) zo uit:
– DID + onderwerp + HELE WERKWOORD (+ rest van de zin)
– (Denk erom! Wanneer iets gebeurd is, moet helemaal achteraan!)
• Voorbeeld:
– Did you do your homework last night?
– Did your grandfather give you that book on your birthday?
• Dus:
– Ben je vanmorgen met de bus naar school gegaan?
– Did you go to school by bus this morning?
3. Maar dus niet altijd met ‘did’?
• als je een ander hulpwerkwoord gebruikt, dan zet je dat vooraan
(bijv. could, would of should)
• je vraag ziet er dan zo uit:
– HULPWW + onderwerp + HELE WERKWOORD
• Voorbeeld:
– Could you pass me the sugar, please?
– Should I bring those papers over?
• Dus:
– Zou je dat voor me willen doen
– Would you do that for me.
4. Wanneer nog meer niet?
• Je maakt een vraag niet met ‘did’ als je werkwoord was of were is.
• Je vraag ziet er dan zo uit:
– WAS of WERE + onderwerp (+ rest van de zin)
– Je zet dus gewoon was of were vooraan! (net als in het Nederlands)
• Voorbeeld:
– Was he a really good dancer?
– Were you there on time?
• Dus:
– Waren jullie gisteren thuis?
– Were you at home yesterday?
6. De past simple in ontkennende zinnen
• Als je wilt zeggen dat iets niet is gebeurd in het verleden:
– Onderwerp + didn’t + hele werkwoord (+ rest van de zin)
– didn’t = did not
• Voorbeeld:
– You didn’t do your homework last night.
– Your grandfather didn’t give you that book on your birthday.
• Dus:
– Ik ben vanmorgen niet met de bus naar school gegaan.
– I didn’t go to school by bus this morning.
7. Geen didn’t als …
• Je een ander hulpwerkwoord gebruikt (bijv. would, should of could)
• In dat geval zet je not achter het hulpww.:
– Onderwerp + HULPWERKWOORD + NOT + HELE WERKWOORD
– Vaak kort je af tot: wouldn’t, shouldn’t of couldn’t
• Voorbeeld:
– You couldn’t pass me the sugar.
– I shouldn’t bring those papers over.
• Dus:
– Zou je dat voor me willen doen
– Would you do that for me.
8. Tenslotte …
• Als je werkwoord was of were is, gebruik je ook geen did.
• Zet dan gewoon not àchter was of were
• Voorbeeld:
– He wasn’t a really good dancer.
– You weren’t there on time.
• Dus:
– Waren jullie gisteren thuis?
– Were you at home yesterday?
