UNIT 2 Language notes: PREPOSITIONS OF PLACE AND TIME
Prepositions are a class of words which express relationship.
Prepositions of place are a grammatically distinct class of words whose
most central members characteristically express spatial relations (such as
the words at, in, on, under, through, from, to) or serve to mark various
syntactic functions and semantic roles (such as the English words of, for,
with).
In general, we use:
at for a POINT
in for an ENCLOSED SPACE
on for a SURFACE
Examples:
Jane is waiting for you at the bus stop.
The shop is at the end of the street.
My plane stopped at Dubai and Hanoi and arrived in Bangkok two hours
late.
When will you arrive at the office?
Do you work in an office?
I have a meeting in New York.
Do you live in Japan?
There are no prices on this menu.
You are standing on my foot.
There was a "no smoking" sign on the wall.
I live on the 7th floor at 21 Oxford Street in London.
Notice the use of the prepositions of place at, in and on in these standard
expressions:
at in on
at home in a car on a bus
at work in a taxi on a train
94

at school in a helicopter on a plane
at university in a boat on a ship
at college in a lift (elevator) on a bicycle, on a motorbike
at the top in the newspaper on a horse, on an elephant
at the bottom in the sky on the radio, on television
at the side in a row on the left, on the right
at reception in Oxford Street on the way
Prepositions of Time: at, in, on
We use:
at for a PRECISE TIME
in for MONTHS, YEARS, CENTURIES and LONG PERIODS
on for DAYS and DATES
Examples:
I have a meeting at 9am.
The shop closes at midnight.
Jane went home at lunchtime.
In England, it often snows in December.
Do you think we will go to Jupiter in the future?
There should be a lot of progress in the next century.
Do you work on Mondays?
Her birthday is on 20 November.
Where will you be on New Year's Day?
Notice the use of the preposition of time at in the following standard
expressions:
at night The stars shine at night.
at the weekend I don't usually work at the weekend.
at Christmas/Easter I stay with my family at Christmas.
at the same time We finished the test at the same time.
at present He's not home at present. Try later.
Notice the use of the prepositions of time in and on in these common
expressions:

I go home every Easter. (not at every Easter)

UNIT 3 Language notes: PAST SIMPLE TENSE, PRESENT
PERFECT TENSE
We use the past simple to tell stories about the past. We also use it when the
time something happened in the past is known or important:
Last year only 18% of US consumers visited a leading department store.
The question, short answer and negative are made with the past tense of the
verb “to do”.
he/she/it/we/they
worked in
Manchester
from 1978 to
1982.
We use the present perfect for a past action which has an effect on the
present. What happened and its effect on the present is more important than
the time it happened:
We have made a lot of changes since 2003.

UNIT 4 Language notes: TALKING ABOUT THE FUTURE
We can use different language forms to talk about the future.
1) “going to” to talk about what we intend to do an have already
decided to do: We’re going to attend the seminar in France next week. Are
you going to book the tickets for the flight?
When we can see that something is likely to happen:
The company is going to get profit from this transaction.
2) “will” or “’ll” to tell something we have decided to do at the time
of speaking: The flight’s late. I’ll call the office to cancel the meeting.
When we make predictions: It will outsource shipping services.
3) “The present continuous” to talk about a fixed arrangement:
I’m travelling to Germany next week. Are you flying on the same flight as
your boss?
4) “The present simple” to talk about a timetable or programme:
The train leaves Rome at 2 p.m tomorrow. It doesn’t stop at Milan.
Examples:
We have a lesson next Monday.
The train arrives at 6.30 in the morning.
The holidays start next week.
It is my birthday tomorrow.

They are coming to see us tomorrow.
We’re having a party at Christmas.

Mary will help with the cooking.
I’m going to drive to work today.
They are going to move to Manchester.
Be careful! You are going to fall.
Look at those black clouds. I think it’s going to rain.
UNIT 5 Language notes: PASSIVES
The passive is often used when the person who does an action is unknown
or not as important as what is done or what it is done to:
The Millennium Technology Prize was awarded to Tim Berners-Lee.
To be impersonal or formal (for example, in notices, announcements or
reports):
It has been agreed that the prototype will be tested next month.
If the person who does the action is mentioned, we use “by”:
The World Wide Web was invented by Tim Berners-Lee.
Tim Berners-Lee was named as one of the top 20 thinkers of the twentieth
century by Time magazine.
The goods were packed by Anne.
The passive is formed with the verb “to be” (in all tenses) + the past
participle.
98

Someone is packing the goods.
The goods are being packed.
Someone packs the goods.
Someone packed the gods.
Someone has packed the goods.
Someone will pack the goods.
Someone is going to pack the goods.
The goods are packed.
The goods were packed.
The goods have been packed.
The goods will be packed.
The goods are going to be packed.
UNIT 6 Language notes: MODALS OF ADVICE, OBLIGATON AND
NECESSITY
1) Advice
We can use “should” and “shouldn’t” to give or ask for advice. You
should learn a song to sing before going to Korea.
For strong advice we can use must mustn’t. You mustn’t refuse an
invitation to dinner in Italy. It may cause offence.
2) Obligation/Necessity
We often use “must” when the obligation comes from the person
speaking or writing. We must buy a gift for our visitor.
We use “mustn’t” to say something is prohibited or is not allowed.
You mustn’t use a mobile phone in an aeroplane.
We often use “have to” to show that the obligation comes from another
person or institution, not the speaker.
You have to get a visa to enter the country. (This is the law.)
3) Lack of obligation/Lack of necessity
Don’t have to and mustn’t are very different: don’t have to = it is not
necessary.
UNIT 7, UNIT 8 Language notes: DEGREES OF COMPARISON
There are three degrees of comparison in English:
1. Positive degree. 2. Comparative degree. 3. Superlative degree.
99

Positive

When we speak about only one person or thing we use the Positive
degree: This house is big.
When we compare two persons or two things with each other we use
both the Positive degree and Comparative degree:
This plant is bigger than that one. (Comparative degree)
This warehouse is not as big as that one. (Positive degree)
This manual is more complicated than that.
When we compare more than two persons or things with one another
we use all the three Positive, Comparative and Superlative degrees:
This is the biggest plant in this district. (Superlative)
This truck is bigger than any other truck in the company’s truck fleet.

UNIT 9 Language notes: REPORTED QUESTIONS. DEDUCTION:
MODALS “MUST HAVE BEEN/CAN’T HAVE BEEN”
If we put a question into Reported speech there are some like changing of
the person, backshift of tenses, changing of expressions of time. In
Reported speech there is no question anymore, the sentence becomes a
statement. That's why the word order is: subject – verb. The tense changes
in reported questions are the same as those in reported speech

bad
far
lager
friendlier
