Guía didáctica: Communicative Grammar III UNIT 8: MORE MODALS AND SIMILAR EXPRESSIONS Dear student, this is the last unit of Communicative Grammar III. I’m sure you will find it interesting just like the other units in this course. This last unit includes pertinent activities such as cloze, gap-fill, listening, writing and editing exercises related to modals and similar expressions. Let’s start with the first grammar point. 8.1. Preferences: Prefer, Would prefer, Would rather You will begin this part of your textbook with a bar graph and a questionnaire about leisure-time preferences. You don’t need to answer the questionnaire but you can do the “Before you read” and “After you read” activities in your textbook. I also suggest you check your understanding by answering the following questions: Exercise: Recursos educativos multimedia What is the most popular pastime among adults? _______________________________________________________________ What is the least popular pastime among adults? _______________________________________________________________ What are the most popular pastimes among teens? _______________________________________________________________ What is the least popular pastime among teens? _______________________________________________________________ What activities do adults prefer more than teenagers? _______________________________________________________________ What activities do teenagers prefer more than adults? _______________________________________________________________ After completing the exercise above, look at the charts in the section “Grammar Presentation” in your book. You will see the structure of statements that express preference. This chart is useful to start reading the section “Grammar Notes” in which you will learn about the uses of “prefer”, “would prefer”, and “would rather” to talk about things or activities that you like better than other things or activities. I hope this topic is easy to understand. Now you can begin to work on the sections “Focused Practice” and “Communication Practice” in your textbook. These activities will help you better understand this grammar point. UNIVERSIDAD TÉCNICA PARTICULAR DE LOJA La Universidad Católica de Loja 60

Necessity: Have (got) to, Must, Don’t have to, Must not, Can’t In this new topic we will start by reading an article about some rules for international travel. This article can be found in the section called “Grammar in Context” in your textbook. For a better comprehension do the activities “Before you Read”, “After you Read” and answer the following questions: Exercise: Why does the columnist recommend … - carrying your passport for all international travel? _______________________________________________________________ - renewing your passport if it will expire in three months? _______________________________________________________________ - not bringing fresh food into foreign countries? _______________________________________________________________ - getting an IDP for an around-the-world tour? _______________________________________________________________ - moving around and drinking plenty of water on long flights? _______________________________________________________________ You can use a dictionary if you find words that you don’t understand. After completing the exercise above, look at the charts in the section “Grammar Presentation”. You will see the structure of statements that use the modals “have (got) to” and “don’t have to”. Then, read the section “Grammar Notes” in which you will learn about the uses of the aforementioned modals to express different degrees of necessity. I hope these structures are easy to understand. Now you can begin to work on the “Focused Practice” and “Communication Practice” sections in your textbook. I’m sure that you can do all of the activities suggested without any problems. Let’s move on to the next grammar point. 8.3. Expectations: Be supposed to We will start this grammar point by reading a page from Ms. Etiquette’s Book, The Right Thing.
