QUANTIFIERS O SOME/ANY

POSITION.

NOTE: WHEN WE USE A QUESTION WORD, EG "DONDE" (WHERE) WE USE AN

ACCENT

SOMEONE IS AT THE DOOR.

TIME PREPOSITION

activities for teaching Prepositions of time to English language

learners (kids, teenagers or adults). Here you can find printable

worksheets for many levels: beginners, elementary, intermediate

or advanced.

All these worksheets and activities for teaching Prepositions of

time have been designed by English language teachers.

PRESENT PERFECT SIMPLE • We use the Present Perfect to say that an action happened at an

unspecified time before now. The exact time is not important. You

CANNOT use the Present Perfect with specific time expressions such

as: yesterday, one year ago, last week, when I was a child, when I

lived in Japan, at that moment, that day, one day, etc. We CAN use

the Present Perfect with unspecific expressions such as: ever, never,

once, many times, several times, before, so far, already, yet, etc.

• I have seen that movie twenty times.

• I think I have met him once before.

• There have been many earthquakes in California.

• People have traveled to the Moon.

• People have not traveled to Mars.

• Have you read the book yet?

REPORTED SPEECH

• When do we use reported speech? Sometimes someone says a

sentence, for example "I'm going to the cinema tonight". Later,

maybe we want to tell someone else what the first person said.

Type Example

direct speech “I speak English.”

reported speech(no backshift)

He says that he speaks English.

reported speech(backshift)

He said that he spoke English

PAST TENSE OF ‘THERE IS/THERE ARE’

• some languages, the grammatical expression of past tense is combined with the

expression of other categories such as mood and aspect (see tense–aspect–mood).

Thus a language may have several types of past tense form, their use depending on

what aspectual or other additional information is to be encoded. French, for

example, has a compound past (passé composé) for expressing completed events,

an imperfect for expressing events which were ongoing or repeated in the past, as

well as several other past forms.

There is

• Use "there is" (there's) for a noun -

•

• There are

• Use "there are" for a noun -

INTRODUCTION TO THE PASSIVE VOICE

Passive voice is used when the focus is on the action. It is not important or not known,

however, who or what is perf orming the action.

• Example: My bike was stolen.

• In the example above, the focus is on the fact that my bike was stolen. I do not

know, however, who did it.

• Sometimes a statement in passive is more polite than active voice, as the following

example shows:

• Example: A mistake was made.

• In this case, I focus on the fact that a mistake was made, but I do not blame anyone

(e.g. You have made a mistake

ABVERDS OF FREQUENCY

• Adverbs of Frequency are Adverbs of Time that answer

the question "How frequently?" or "How often?". They

tell us how often something happens. Here are some

examples:

• daily, weekly, yearly

• often, sometimes, rarely

• You probably see a difference between a) and b)

above. With words like daily we know exactly how

often. The words in a) describe definite frequency. On

the other hand, words like often give us an idea about

frequency but they don't tell us exactly. The words in

PREPOSITIONS: ‘FOR/SINCE’

For is used before an exact or inexact quantity of time, and it is

commonly used with the present perfect and past perfect

tenses. For (quantity of time) is similiar to in (a period of time);

however for can be followed by a more precise time.

We have been coming to this beach for five years.

We have been enjoying this paradise for a week.

Since is used before a specific time or date, and it is commonly

used with the present perfect and past perfect tenses. Since may

be followed by a noun phrase or a clause specifying a precise

time.

We have been coming to this beach since July, 2012. (noun

phrase)

We have been enjoying this paradise since last Saturday.

they have to put in the correct forms of these verbs in present or past

simple, in ex. 3. students have to correct the sentences, and the last
