Our taste for alcohol goes back millions of years
Our ancestors acquired the ability to digest alcohol around 10 million years ago, allowing early humans to take advantage of overripe, fermented fruit as a food source with few competitors. This study found that the ADH4 enzyme, which breaks down alcohol in the gut, evolved to be around 40 times more effective at clearing alcohol in humans, chimpanzees and gorillas than in more primitive species. While ADH4 helped early humans utilize alcohol as a resource, today it leaves humans susceptible to the negative effects of excessive alcohol consumption.

Modals: Ability: Exercises
This document provides links to exercises about using modals like "can", "could", and "be able to" to express ability in English. The first link is to a lesson on the EC English website that explains how to use these modals to talk about ability, while the second link directs to a quiz on the EnglishClub site to test understanding of using "can" in different contexts.
Modals: Ability
The document discusses modals used to express ability in English in the present, past, and future tenses. In the present tense, "can" is used to express ability, while "was/were able to" is used for the past tense. For the future tense, "will be able to" expresses what one will be capable of doing. Examples are provided for affirmative, negative, and interrogative sentences using these modals in each tense.
Intensifiers: Too and Enough: Exercises
An list of links to practise the intensifiers 'too' and 'enough' (plus other intensifiers) in English.
Intensifiers: Too and Enough
This document provides definitions and examples for the terms "too" and "enough".
"Too" means there is more of something than desired and expresses a negative opinion. It is incorrect to use "too" in a positive sense. "Enough" means having what is needed or sufficient. The document outlines proper usage of "too" and "enough" with nouns, adjectives, verbs, and in constructions with "to + verb". Examples are given to illustrate appropriate uses in context.
Intensifiers: So and such: Exercises
This document provides links to online exercises and practice tests for learning the difference between the intensifiers "so" and "such" in English. It includes basic exercises as well as more difficult tests to help distinguish when to use "so" versus "such" in sentences. The resources cover a range of activities to improve understanding and proper usage of these similar but distinct words.
Intensifiers: So and Such
So and such are used to emphasize adjectives and nouns. So is used before an adjective alone, or with an adverb, while such is used when an adjective is paired with a noun. Both so and such require 'a/an' after them when used before a singular countable noun. So can also be used before a noun when modifiers like 'many' or 'much' are included, while such cannot be used in this way. Such can emphasize a noun on its own or be used with 'a lot of/lots of'. So and such can also be used in 'that' clauses to show the result of the first clause.
Intensifiers: Really, Very, Extremely
An explanation of the use of intensifiers like 'really, 'very', and 'extremely' in English with examples.

Modals: Offering and Requesting
The document discusses modal verbs used for offering and requesting in service situations such as restaurants and cafes. For offering, "would like" and "can/may" are commonly used questions, such as "Would you like something to drink?" or "Can I get you anything?". For requesting, "could I" is the most polite form, like "Could I have the fish please?". "Would like" can also be used in requests, for example "I would like a beer please."
Modals: united
The document discusses polite language for offering and requesting things using modal verbs.
For offering, it recommends using "would like" as in "Would you like something to drink?" or asking generally with "What would you like?". It also suggests using "can" or the more formal "may" as in "Can I offer you a complimentary drink?".
For requesting, it advises using "could I..." politely as in "Could I have the fish please?". It also mentions using "would like" as in "I would like a beer please" or adding extra politeness with "I'd love a glass of wine, thanks!".
Introduction to Modals
This document discusses the forms and usage of common English modal verbs such as can, could, may, might, will, would, should, and must. It notes that modals do not change form for third person, act as the verb "be" for questions and negatives, do not use auxiliary verbs like do/does in questions and negatives, are always followed by the infinitive form of a verb without "to", and do not themselves take infinitive forms with "to". Examples are provided to illustrate the rules around question formation, negatives, and short answers using modals.
Zero and 1st conditionals: Exercises
This document provides links to exercises for practicing two types of conditional sentences: zero conditional and first conditional. There are 5 links for zero conditional exercises and 10 links for first conditional exercises from various English language learning websites. The exercises can be used to improve skills with these conditional sentence structures.
Zero and 1st Conditional
There are two main types of conditionals in English: zero conditional and first conditional.
The zero conditional describes something that is always true and uses the structure of present tense in both the if-clause and main clause (e.g. "If you don't eat for a long time, you get hungry").
The first conditional describes something that is likely to happen in the future and uses the structure of present tense in the if-clause and future tense in the main clause (e.g. "If you study hard, you will pass the exam"). Both conditionals can have the clauses reversed or take question form.

Present Simple Use
- 1. PRESENT SIMPLE - USE The most important thing to remember about the present simple is we DO NOT USE IT FOR RIGHT NOW. For this we use present continuous. We use the present simple for 4 reasons: 1. FACTS When we talk about something that is a fact we use the present simple. The water is cold The sun sets at 6pm and rises at 5.30am He is Colombian We are at the cinema 2. THOUGHTS AND FEELINGS When we talk about how we feel or think about something we use the present simple. I love Liverpool Football Club She hates me My parents think he is funny We want to eat at that restaurant 3. REGULAR ACTIVITIES When we talk about activities we do on a regular basis we use the present simple. We often use adverbs of frequency to help explain the regularity (see ‘Adverbs of Frequency’). My wife goes to the gym every day. I always eat cereal for breakfast. He never sleeps in late. We go on holiday twice a year. 4. FUTURE TIMETABLE When we talk about appointments, meetings, classes, etc, in the future, as well as when activities start and finish, we use the present simple. We have class tomorrow. The plane leaves at 2.45pm. I have an appointment to see the doctor next week. The bus arrives at 10pm.
