GRAMMAR
We form comparative adjectives in two ways ; a. by adding -‐er than to the positive degree : clean cleaner than short shorter than small smaller than b. if the adjective has more than two syllables, by using more than and less than expensive more expensive than comfortable more comfortable than attractive more attractive than difficult less difficult than expensive less expensive than c. if the adjective has two syllables : ends in y doesn’t end in y lazy-‐lazier upset-‐more upset crazy-‐crazier silly-‐sillier Note : The adjectives good , bad and far have special comparative forms : good better than bad worse than far farther than They said they had fixed computer, but it’s now working even worse than before. d. if the adjective has a negative prefix : unhappy-‐(even) less happy unbelievable-‐(even) less believable

……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..
NON-‐DEFINING RELATIVE CLAUSES
THEY GIVE ADDITIONAL INFORMATION THAT IS NOT NECESSARY TO UNDERSTAND THE SENTENCE.
WE CAN NOT USE THAT INSTEAD OF WHICH / WHO (M)
Non-‐defining relative clauses are used in writing but are not used frequently in conversation. There is an important difference between defining and non-‐defining relative clauses. Defining clauses give important information which tells us what is being referred to,but, Non-‐defining clauses add extra information, separated by commas in writing, and intonation in speaking. The relative pronoun cannot be left out in a non-‐defining clause.
Defining : I have three uncles who are living in Africa.
Non-‐Defining : I have three uncles, who are living in Africa.
Relative pronouns :
Person Thing
1.Subject who(that) that(which)
2.Object ÿ (who,whom) ÿ (which)
3.Possesive whose whose(of which)
Rewrite these sentences :
1.Michael telephoned his teacher. She lives in Denver.
.......................................................................................................................
2.The dress is a little bit big. My sister bought it for me.
.......................................................................................................................
3.The boys are playing basketball in the living room. Their mother got angry with them.

prefer, realize, remember, seem, sound, think, understand
e.g. I expect they will be late.

Verbs Expressing Sense Perceptions :
feel, hear, see, smell, taste e.g. Mike must be at home. I can see his car parked outside. (not: I am seeing his car parked outside.) Some of the above verbs are used in continuous tenses when they describe actions not states. e.g. I think he’s lying. (= believe) I’m thinking about the plan. (= am considering.) The food tastes delicious. (= has a delicious flavour) He is tasting the food. (=is tasting the flavour of) The chicken weighs 2 kilos. (= has a weight of) The butcher is weighing the meat.

SUPPOSING WITH TYPE 1/2/3
1.Zero (present) conditional (type 0)
If + present ........ present or imperative
We use this form to refer to conditions which are always true:
If I read on the train, I start to feel sick. (or "get sick")
2.First Conditional (type 1)
If + present simple....... will future
We use this form to predict events which may happen in the
future, if a condition is met:
If you pass your exams, I’ll give you a present.

IF and WHEN
When can replace if in zero conditionals:
If you heat water to 100 degrees Celsius, it boils. When you heat water to 100 degrees Celsius, it boils.
In the other types of conditionals, we cannot use when instead of if.
EVEN IF
Even if emphasises that something will happen, would happen or would have happened whatever the
condition:
Even if we leave right now, we still won't catch the train.
I wouldn't go into the water even if I could swim.
Even if we had booked our flight earlier, it wouldn't have been cheaper.
ONLY IF
Only if makes the condition more restrictive:
Acetaminophen is dangerous to children only if dosage is too high.
If the if-‐clause is first, the subject and the auxiliary in the main clause are inverted:
Only if you like classical music is it worth coming tonight.
SO/AS LONG AS, PROVIDING/PROVIDED (THAT)
So/As long as and providing/provided (that) can be used instead of if to express a condition.
Note that providing/provided (that) is a bit formal:
You can stay here as long as you keep quiet. Provided/Providing (that) the bills are paid, tenants will not be evicted.
SUPPOSE/SUPPOSING, WHAT IF
Suppose/supposing and what if can replace if, mainly in everyday conversation, and are often used without a
main clause:
Suppose/supposing you won the lottery, what would you do?
Suppose/supposing you can't find a job? What if you are not accepted to university? What will you do then?
UNLESS
Unless is followed by an affirmative verb to express "if ... not":
My leg's broken. I can't stand up unless you help me. (I can't stand up if you don't help me.)
Fill in the correct conjunction :
1-‐…………………………. she gets here soon, we will have to start the meeting without her.

PASSIVE VOICE
IT IS SAID…. / ……ARE SAID ……….(IMPERSONAL PASSIVE)
SIMPLE PRESENT ( AM / IS ARE + V3) / PRESENT CONTINUOUS ( AM / IS / ARE +BEING + V3)
SIMPLE PAST ( WAS / WERE +V3 ) / PAST CONTINUOUS ( WAS / WERE +BEING+V3 )
FUTURE +BE + V3
MODALS + BE + V3
We use the passive in the following situations;
a) When it is obvious or not important to say who, what, etc. is the subject: e.g. She was born in 1986.
b) avoiding using I, we, they, one, etc: e.g. The job will be finished by tonight. c) reports: e.g. Food must be found for refugees. d) describing a process: e.g. The beans are seperated from the shells and then they are put into sacks. e) official announcements: e.g. Fees must be paid in advance.
f) scientific texts: e.g. The liquid is heated to a temperature of 60°C.
When we form passives, we do not usually mention the person or thing responsible for the action (the agent). When we mention the agent we generally use by when we mention who or what was responsible and with when we mention the instrument used; e.g. The car had seen driven by my younger sister. The victim had been killed with a bread knife.

They follow very strict rules : -‐They are never followed by another modal auxiliary, -‐They never take an -‐ s or an -‐ing form, e.g. He can run fast. -‐They are always followed by an infinitive (without to) in a complete sentence : e.g. She will come tomorrow. -‐And can stand alone in a short answer : e.g. You should try harder. Yes, I should. -‐They can be followed by a certain number of verbal constructions but the auxiliary of the verbal construction is always in the infinitive. e.g. He is working, I think. = He must be working.(continuous) She is given a book.(passive) = She will be given a book.(passive) They are being beaten, perhaps. (passive continuous form) = They might be being beaten.(rare) -‐They express a certain number of notions and the general rule to locate the action in time is as follows : Action in the present : modal auxiliary + infinitive Action in the past : modal auxiliary + have + past participle
*Note that in the past , like in the present ,the modal auxiliary is followed by an infinitive : have -‐ the infinitive form “to have” -‐In certain constructions, it is not possible to use a modal auxiliary in this case, we have to use an equivalent : Can = be able to + infinitive (capacity, possibility) Must = have to + infinitive (obligation) Can/may = be allowed to + infinitive (permission)
e.g. He will come + He must come. =He will have to come.

GRAMMAR
BE / GET USED TO + VİNG / NOUN ( HABIT)
GET USED TO +V1 = ACCUSTOMED TO +V1
Be used to and be accustomed to have the same meaning.
Be used to is an expression. It is not a tense. If I say "I am used to Tahiti", it is like saying "I am accustomed to
Tahiti."
Do not confuse be used to with with the special construction used to do. They have different meanings.
Why do we use -‐ing for a verb after be used to? Because we always use -‐ing for a verb after a preposition -‐ and
the to is
a preposition.
The be used to expression is for talking about something that is familiar to us or easy for us. For example:
� I am used to driving on the left.
It means that it is not a problem for me to drive on the left of the road. I am Turkish. In Turkey, people drive on
the right.
Now I am living in the UK where people drive on the left. Of course, I drive on the left in the UK, but when I go to Turkey
it is easy for me to drive on the right because "I am used to it".
Use be accustomed to :
1.I am used to the cold weather.
…………………………………………………..
2.Canadians are used to living abroad.
…………………………………………………..
3.Turkish people are used to living in big houses.
…………………………………………………..
4.We are used to working more and talking less.

5.They were used to surviving with little water in the desert.

I me my mine myself
You you your yours yourself
He him his his himself
She her her hers herself
It it its -‐-‐-‐-‐ itself
We us our ours ourselves
You you your yours yourselves
They them their theirs themselves
One one one’s -‐-‐-‐-‐ oneself
Emphatic pronouns When reflexive pronouns are used to put emphasis on a particular noun they are called emphatic pronouns.
He himself told me this. I finished the project myself. They themselves admitted their mistake. We ourselves witnessed the accident. Notes: The emphatic pronouns cannot be used as subjects. It is therefore wrong to say: John and myself went there. Herself swam in the river. I invited herself to tea.
The correct sentences are as follows: John and I went there.
She swam in the river. I invited her to tea.
Difference between reflective and emphatic pronouns A pronoun is a reflexive one if the action of the subject reflects upon the doer. Emphatic pronouns, on the other hand,
are used to just emphasize the action of the subject.
He cut himself. (Reflexive: here the subject and object refer to the same person.) He himself cut the pizza. (Emphatic: here the emphatic pronoun himself merely puts emphasis on the noun he.) I spoke to the manager myself. (Emphatic) You must blame yourself for the accident. (Reflexive)
Note that an emphatic pronoun can be removed from the sentence and the core meaning would not be affected.
A reflexive pronoun, on the other hand, is indispensable. The sentence wouldn’t make complete sense if you remove
the reflexive pronoun.
Compare: He himself cut the cake. He cut the cake. He cut himself. He cut …what?
You will have noticed that in the first pair of sentences, the core meaning doesn’t change when the emphatic pronoun
himself is removed from the sentence. In the second pair of sentences, the meaning changes or becomes incomplete
when the reflexive pronoun is removed.
Notes: If the reflexive pronoun in a sentence is replaced by the reciprocal pronoun ‘each other’, the meaning of the sentence
changes drastically.
Compare: John and Peter blamed themselves for the loss. (John blamed himself and Peter blamed himself.) John and Peter blamed each other for the loss. (John blamed Peter and Peter blamed John.)
Fill in the correct reflexive pronoun and write if it is emphatic pronoun:
1-‐He did his homework by …………………………………………..

4-‐Mary and I …………………………………finished the project.

Difficult as it may seem, it is not impossible to succeed.
(b) Inversion
We invert subject -‐ verb for emphasis
Suddenly down came the snow.
Up into the air went the fireworks.
Never have I seen such an spectacular view.
C. IT IS/ WAS + NOUN + THAT + WHO + VERB CLAUSE

� It was Sally who borrowed my book last night. � It was last night that Sally borrowed my book. � It was my book that Sally borrowed last night.
D. WHAT CLAUSES
WHAT + VERB CLAUSE + IS / WAS + NOUN
� What I hate is windy weather. � What you really need is a good friend. � What Sally borrowed last night was my book.
E. ADDING WORDS
1. Own -‐ emphasis on possessive adjective

2. Very / Indeed
When used emphatically, "very" means exactly / precisely
-‐ At the very same moment, the doorbell rang.
-‐ It was very hot, indeed!
3. AT ALL / IN THE LEAST / WHATSOEVER / REALLY
(to emphasize negatives)
� It wasn't hot at all! � I wasn't in the least excited. � There was nothing to say at all, really. � There was no good left at all, whatsoever.
4. THE -‐ used to emphasize uniqueness and heavily stressed in speech
-‐ Surely, you don't mean the Brad Pitt.
5. Question words ending in -‐ever. They add an air of disbelief.
� Whatever are you eating? � Whoever invited you that? � Wherever did she go?
6. DO / DID -‐ emphasize the verb and are stressed in speech

CLEFT = DIVIDED
� "Th There are two major types of cleft constructions: it-‐clefts and wh-‐clefts.
o it-‐cleft:
It's a car I want. (I want a car.)
o wh-‐cleft:
What I want is something to drink, now! (compare: I want something to drink.)
Clefts are used to bring particular elements of the clause into additional focus . . .. The extra focused element
normally
appears early in it-‐clefts and late in wh-‐clefts.

GRADABLE ADJECTIVES & ADVERBS
NON-‐ GRADABLE ADJECTIVES & ADVERBS
Adjectives can be either gradable or non-‐gradable
Gradable
Gradable adjectives are adjectives like ‘cold’ ‘hot’ and ‘frightened’. You can be very cold or a bit cold. Gradable adjectives show that something can have different degrees.
Non-‐gradable
Non-‐gradable adjectives are adjectives like ‘married’ or ‘wooden’. You can’t be very married or a bit married. Non-‐gradable adjectives do not have different degrees.
Adjectives like ‘terrifying’, ‘freezing’ ‘amazing’ are also non-‐gradable adjectives. They already contain the idea of ‘very’ in their definitions – ‘freezing’ means ‘very cold’ etc.
Using adverbs of degree
When we use adverbs of degree to modify adjectives we usually have to use different adverbs for gradable
and non-‐gradable adjectives.
� NOT I’m completely hot. � NOT It was very fantastic
With gradable adjectives
� It’s a bit hot in here. Shall I turn the air conditioner on? � He’s very interested in documentaries. Why don’t you buy him a documentary book? � These problems are really difficult. I don’t know any of the answers. � I’m extremely tired. I’m not going out tonight.
The adverbs a bit, very, really, extremely and quite can all be used with gradable adjectives.
With non-‐gradable adjectives
� It’s absolutely boiling in here. Shall I turn the air conditioner on? � He’s completely fascinated by history. Why don’t you buy him a historical film? � This problem is absolutely impossible to solve. � That film is really frihtening. Don’t go and see it on your own.
The adverbs absolutely and completely can be used with non-‐gradable adjectives.
Notice that really can be used with both gradable AND non-‐gradable adjectives.
NOTE: There are other adverbs of degree that we haven’t covered in this section. The ones included here are some of the most common.
Fill in with a correct gradable adjective or adverb:
Very / really / completely / a bit / absolutely 1-‐I speak……………………………good English but My German is terrible.
2-‐What a/n ……………………………..beautiful dress! Where did you buy it from?
3-‐You should have come to her party.It was …………………………………fantastic.

GRAMMAR
PREPOSITIONAL PHRASES
At the minimum, a prepositional phrase will begin with a preposition and end with a noun, pronoun, gerund, or clause,
the "object" of the preposition.
The object of the preposition will often have one or more modifiers to describe it.
These are the patterns for a prepositional phrase:
P R E P O S İ T İ O N + N O U N , P R O N O U N , G E R U N D , O R C L A U S E
P R E P O S İ T İ O N + M O D İ F İ E R ( S ) + N O U N , P R O N O U N , G E R U N D , O R C L A U S E
Here are some examples of the most basic prepositional phrase:
At work
At = preposition; work = noun.
In time
In = preposition; time = noun.
From Rachel
From = preposition; Rachel = noun.
With her
With = preposition; her = pronoun.
By dancing
By = preposition; dancing = gerund.
About what we want
About = preposition; what we want = noun clause.
Most prepositional phrases are longer, like these:
From my mother
From = preposition; my = modifier; mother = noun.
Under the huge table
Under = preposition; the, huge = modifiers; table = noun.
Understand what prepositional phrases do in a sentence.
A prepositional phrase will function as an adjective or adverb. As an adjective, the prepositional phrase will answer
the question Which one?
Read these examples:
The towel on the bedroom floor belongs to my brother.
Which towel? The one on the bedroom floor!
The apples in the fruit bin are green.
Which apples? The ones in the fruit bin!
The note from Betty confessed that she had eaten the leftover chocolate.
Which note? The one from Betty!
As an adverb, a prepositional phrase will answer questions such as How? When? or Where?
Fred is exhausted from yesterday's long basketball practice .
How did Fred get exhausted? From yesterday's long basketball practice!

they were said (up � to � date � reporting)
