GRAMMAR COMMENT: Adjectives as Personal nouns

We can use the +adjective to refer to a group or class of people: The unemployed are calling for more Government spending. The wounded were taken to the nearest hospital. The rich, the penniless, the dead, the educated, the very healthy and wealthy. Adjectives as personal nouns use a plural verb. (The rich don’t under stand our problem). Seven hungry space aliens slithered into the diner and ordered two dozen vanilla milkshakes The disorganized pile of books, which contained seventeen overdue volumes from the library and five unread class texts, blocked the doorway in Eli's dorm room.

Underline the adjectives or verbs functioning as nouns in the following sentences:

1. As a zoologist, he has always been interested in the unusual in the animal world.

2. I don’t mind the airport- it’s the flying that I hate.

3. Never speak ill of the dead.

4. As far as my musical tastes are connected, I’ve always been attracted to the exotic.

5. Bernstein conducted both Mozart and Haydn but seemed to show a preference for the latter.

Cross out “the” in the sentences when it cannot be used.

1. The sending-off was the turning point of the match.

2. The lying out in the sun is many people’s idea of the happiness.

3. It’s just the travelling that would put me off a job like that.

4. The accused was finally convicted of the breaking and entering.

5. I prefer the listening to the opera to the watching it.

Exercise 2. Give the main idea of the text you have listened to.

Exercise 3. Read the poem and discuss its content. America the Beautiful O beautiful for spacious skies, For amber waves of grain, For purple mountain majesties Above the fruited plain! America! America! God shed his grace on thee And crown thy good with brotherhood (follow next table)

From sea to shining sea! O beautiful for Pilgrim feet Whose stern impassion’d stress A thoroughfare for freedom beat Across the wildness. America! America! God mend thine ev’ry flaw, Confirm thy soul in self-control, Thy liberty in law…

W hat is the main idea of the poem? America the Beautiful was written by the professor, poet, and writer Katharine Lee Bates. Bates wrote the song in 1893 while on a trip to Colorado Springs, Colorado. When she got to the top of Pike’s Peak, she said, “All the wonders of America seemed displayed there, with the sea-like expanse”. The beautiful view inspired her to write the song that is considered to be the country’s unofficial national anthem. The song is very long, read the following first two stanzas of it and answer the question. Can you tell why it is so well-loved by Americans?
