Hardly, no sooner, scarcely, barely
1) The document discusses the use of "hardly", "scarcely", "barely", and "no sooner" to describe actions that occur immediately or simultaneously with other actions.
2) It provides examples of sentences using these terms with the structures "S + had + hardly/scarcely/barely + V... + WHEN + S + V" and "S + had + no sooner + V... + THAN + S + V".
3) It also discusses inversions of these structures for emphasis, placing "hardly", "scarcely", or "barely" before "had".
Exercises about phrasal verbs

Detailed lesson plan in active and passive
This document provides a detailed lesson plan on teaching active and passive voice to students. The objectives are to differentiate between active and passive voice, identify the voice in sentences, rewrite sentences by changing the voice, and ensure student participation. The lesson plan outlines introductory activities, motivation, presentation of the topic, application through exercises, and evaluation. Key points are distinguishing active voice where the subject performs the action from passive voice where the subject receives the action.
Active and Passive voice
This presentation discusses voice in English grammar including the active and passive voice. It defines voice as the form a transitive verb takes to indicate whether the subject performs or receives the action. The active voice indicates the subject is performing the action, while the passive voice has the subject receiving the action. Reasons to use the active voice include being more direct, concise, and propelling the reader forward. In contrast, the passive voice is less direct and forceful. The presentation provides examples of converting sentences from active to passive voice while retaining the same tense.
Degrees of Comparisson of Adjective
This document discusses the different degrees of comparison in adjectives: positive, comparative, and superlative. It provides examples for how to form the comparative and superlative degrees by adding "-er" and "-est" or using irregular forms like "good" and "better", "best". Rules for usage are explained, such as using "as" or "than" for comparisons and "the" before superlative adjectives. Edge cases like adjectives ending in "y" or consonant doubling are covered.
Active and Passive Voice
This document discusses the difference between active and passive voice in sentences. Active voice has the subject performing the action of the verb, while passive voice has the subject receiving the action of the verb. Active voice is generally clearer and easier to understand than passive voice. However, passive voice can be used when the receiver of the action is more important than the subject, when minimizing the role of the subject, or when writing about scientific or natural processes. Knowing the difference between active and passive voice helps writers determine the best structure to use.
Conditional Sentences
There are three main types of conditional patterns in conditional sentences: Pattern A is used for probable conditions, Pattern B is used for improbable conditions, and Pattern C is used for imaginary conditions. Pattern A uses present tense in the if-clause and future tense in the main clause. Pattern B uses past tense in the if-clause and would/should + verb in the main clause. Pattern C uses past perfect in the if-clause and perfect conditional ("would have" + past participle) in the main clause.
Conditionals presentation
The document discusses different types of conditional sentences in English:
1) Zero conditional - Used to talk about things that are always true. They use the present simple in both the if-clause and main clause.
2) First conditional - Used to talk about things that are possible in the present or future. They use the present simple in the if-clause and will + infinitive in the main clause.
3) Second conditional - Used to talk about unreal things in the present or future. They use the past simple in the if-clause and would + infinitive in the main clause. When using be, we must use "were" instead of "was" for all subjects.
Conditional sentences grammar
This document discusses the different types of conditional sentences in English:
- Zero conditional describes things that are always true.
- First conditional talks about future actions dependent on future conditions. It uses present tense for the condition and will for the result.
- Second conditional talks about unlikely present or future situations. It uses past tense for the condition and would for the result.
- Third conditional talks about imaginary past actions where the conditions were not met. It uses past perfect for the condition and would have for the result. Each conditional has a specific grammatical structure and usage.
Conditional sentences
This document provides exercises to practice rewriting sentences using conditional statements. The exercises include rewriting sentences to replace "if" with "unless" and vice versa. They also involve rewriting sentences starting in a specific way to maintain the same meaning. Finally, there are exercises to rewrite sentences using the second or third conditional to change the time frame being discussed. The goal is to practice using conditional statements to effectively convey conditional meanings.
