Chapter 1
The Subject:
-SOME and ANY
-MUCH and MANY
-A LOT OF and A FEW
1. SOME
& ANY
SOME are used in the positive. Some can be used for objects countable and
uncountable nouns. Some are not used in negative sentences or questions.
Example:
-
I have
some pillows.
-
We
bought some doughnuts.
-
There
are some longan on the table.
-
My
brothers buy some ice cream.
-
Some of them riding a horses.
Keep in mind that, if we use some for objects that
can be calculated (countable nouns), the object must be plural / plural.
-
Correct:
Nadira has some pillows
-
Wrong:
Nadira has some pillow.
-
Correct:
Paul bought some doughnuts .
-
Wrong:
Paul bought some doughnut.
If after some words we put a noun that can not be
calculated / uncountable noun, then it should not be a noun plus "s /
es"
-
True:
There is some pepper in the bowl.
-
Wrong:There
is some pepper in the bowl.
-
Correct:
I need some water.
-
Wrong: I
need some waters.
Note:
-
Remember,
some can not be used in the form of a negative sentence, or the interrogative
sentence.
-
However,
to offer something (offer) and demand (request), we need to put some words in a
sentence asked.
Example:
-
Would
you like some coffee? (offer)
-
Can I
have some grapes? (request)
-
Would
you like some milk?
-
Can I
borrow some money?
ANY used only in negative sentences and interrogative sentence /
interrogative. In the negative or interrogative sentence are not allowed to
wear some, as with any word should never be placed in the positive. Once any,
we can put a countable or uncountable nouns. When a noun is countable noun /
countable noun and more than one, then that too must be a noun in the plural /
plural.
Example:
-
Correct:
I do not have any Kimia books.
-
Wrong: I
do not have any Kimia book.
-
Correct:
Do they need any spoons?
-
Wrong:
Do they need any spoon?
-
Is there
any salt?
2.
MUCH AND
MANY
Much and many are used to express that there is a
large quantity of something . much and many are used in negative sentences and
questions.
Many is used with countable nouns.
Much is used with uncountable nouns.
EX :
-
Emi
borrows many science books from
library.
-
The
students bring many school tools
everyday.
-
You give
much salt so the food is salty
-
Jimmy
flows much blood in accident
-
How many
children will you have?
( countable noun )
-
How much
of your income do you
save? ( uncountable noun )
3.
A LOT OF
AND A FEW
Lot of In spoken English we
often use lots
of or a lot of. In written English, it is more common to write
many
(for countable plural nouns) or a great deal of
(for uncountable nouns) in positive
statements.
A common mistake is to use lot of.
For example, "There are lot of accidents on this way". To avoid
making this mistake, remember either to use a before lot,
or to make lot
plural – lots.
We can say either a lot of
or lots
of before a noun. For example, "There are a lot of
people here" or "There are lots of people here". There isn't any difference
between the two expressions.
We use a lot of in positive sentences, negative sentences and
questions. This expression can be used with countable or uncountable nouns.
-
I have a lot of books to read. (Countable noun)
-
I have a lot of lights to be installed
-
There are a lot of water to wash clothes. (Uncountable noun)
-
You have a lot of flour to make a cake
A Few
A few are used together with countable nouns to
indicate a small quantity. A few are also used in positive (+) sentences, but
not in negative (-) sentences. We generally use any for interrogative (?)
Sentences, but a few are also biased in the interrogative (?) Sentence.
Example of use in the sentence:
Examples of their use in positive (+) sentences:
·
I have a few books
·
I have a few pens
·
You have a few bags
Examples of their use in interrogative (?)
Sentences:
·
Do you have a few books?
·
Do you have a few pens?
·
Do you have a few bags?

The
Subject :

Article
( A, an ,the, and no article )
An article is a short word that refers to and introduces a noun.
You may recall that a noun is a person, place, thing or idea. So, when I
talk about a book or an apple or the president, I use both an article and a
noun with each phrase.
There are three articles in the English language: a,an and
the. It's pretty easy to remember that short list of three articles.
Your main job is to remember the handful of rules for how to use them
correctly.
A. Indefinite Articles: a and an
We use A/AN with:
a.
Singular nouns and the first time we refer to
a person, animal or thing.
-
a pillow
-
an iguana
-
a phone
b.
We don't use A/AN with possessive pronouns,
demonstratives or cardinal numbers.
-
My clothes is dirty.
-
This shoes is expensive.
c.
We use ONE (or more) instead of A/AN when the
number is important.
-
There is only one way to the airport.
What is the difference between A and AN?
A is used when the next word begins with a consonant
sound (b, c, d, f, g, h, j, k etc).
-
a shoes
-
a computer
-
a horse
-
a fan
AN is used when the next word begins with a vowel
sound (a, e, i, o, u).
-
an owl
-
an hour-glass
-
an elephant
-
an egg
B. Definite Article: the
·
The definite article is used before singular and plural nouns when the
noun is specific or particular. The signals that the noun is definite, that it
refers to a particular member of a group. For example:
·
“Please give me the red
hammer; the blue one is too small”
Here, we’re talking about a red harmmer, Since there are two red and
blue hammers, we need a red hammer.
C. No Article
We
use no article with:
·
Can you speak Indonesian? (NOT The indonesian).
·
That children played volleyball. (NOT The volleyball).
2.
Names of
people, books and plays (unless it is part of the title).
·
I have meet Jenifer Lopez.
3.
Towns,
cities, states and countries.
·
Mekarsari
·
Depok
·
Brazil
(Exceptions
– The UAE, The UK, The Netherlands, The Czech Republic, The Philippines).

THE DISCUSSION:
-
Indefinite pronoun ( some-, any-, no-)
-
Reflexive pronoun
A.INDEFINITE
PRONOUN
The compounds of some and any behave in the same way as some
and any, that is to say, some ,in
affirmative sentence and ,any in
negatives and question , although we use some
in the interrogative to offer something, to ask for something or when we expect
a positive response, as we saw in the previous unit. Examples :
- We saw someone entering Mr. Eko’s house last night
·
Someone has come here and given us a gift
·
Someone knocks the door but I don’t know
·
Somebody to love.
Instead
of I did not see anybody there , we
can say I saw nobody there ,but we
cannot use two negative words : I did not
see nobody there
Anybody,nobody and somebody
mean the same as anyone, no-one and nobody respectively. No-one can alsi be written no one .
- Do you have anything to drink and eat?
- Mella doesn’t understand about anything in this problem
- No one can’t lie me
- Nobody in that room speaks English
- nothing happens without the God
B.REFLEXIVE
PRONOUN
A reflexive pronoun is a type of
pronoun that is preceded by the adverb ,adjective , pronoun or noun to which it
refers, so long as that antecedent is located within the same clause.example
- She cooked by herself
- You’re going to drive yourself to campus today
- He wanted to impress her, so he baked a cake himself
- I in a hurry, so I washed the car myself.
- The actors saved the local theatre money by making costumes themselves
- That bag is in a class all by itself.

THE DISCUSSION:
-
HAVE SOMETHING DONE
-
CAUSATIVE HAVE
A. Have something done is used to show that
something is done for us, we do not do it ourselves. Compare these two
sentences:
"I
washed my car." - I washed my car myself.
"I
had my car washed." - I paid someone to wash my car for me.
We
can also use the form"I got my car washed." The difference between
have and get is that have is more formal than get.
Subject
+ Have + Object + Past Participle Verb:
I (subject)
had (have) my car (object) washed (past participle verb).
|
No
|
Example Have
Something Done
|
|
1
|
I had my car repaired yesterday.
|
|
2
|
She had her phone’s battery replaced by a local shop.
|
|
3
|
A friend of mine has had his debit card used fraudulently.
|
Basically
the order of sentences with causative haves is divided into 2, active and
passive. Here is the explanation.
1.
Causative have in active sentence.
Formula:
Subject + HAVE + Object 1 + Verb 1 + Object 2
I have
my sister cook friend rice = I told my sister to cook fried rice
In the
sentence above, causative have applied to the active sentence. In my sense
(subject) ask my sister (object) to memsaka fried rice.
Remember
after object, verb 1 (cook) must be used.
2.
Causative have in pasive sentence
Subject
+ HAVE + Object 2 + Verb 3
I have
friedd rice cooked = I ask for fried rice dimasaka
In the
above sentence, causative haves are used in passive times. This means that the
first Object does not need to mention the unknown alias who was asked to do the
activity.
Example
:
ACTIVE CAUSATIVE HAVE
1. The barking dog made the postman run away.
2. The rain has made the tourists stay in the hotel this morning.
3. I don’t think she can make her husband buy that expensive ring.
4. Sad movies always make me cry.
PASSIVE CAUSATIVE HAVE
1. Did you have the car washed yesterday?
2. I have my hair cut once in 2-3 months.
3. We’ve had the lawn mowed by the neighbour’s son.
4. Jane will have the curtains cleaned at the dry cleaner’s tomorrow.
1. The barking dog made the postman run away.
2. The rain has made the tourists stay in the hotel this morning.
3. I don’t think she can make her husband buy that expensive ring.
4. Sad movies always make me cry.
PASSIVE CAUSATIVE HAVE

DETERMINER : ALL ,EACH , EVERY , FEW ,LITTLE
The difference between All, Every, and Each
All means the total number of people
or things considered as a group.
Every means all members of a group considered individually.
Each means all members of a group considered individually though we think of them more one by one
Every means all members of a group considered individually.
Each means all members of a group considered individually though we think of them more one by one
-- ALL --
All refers to the total number
of people or things of a group. They are considered as a group and not
individually. There are minimum three things in the group.
1 .All +
noun
We can
use All with a plural noun to make a generalization about an
entire group of something.
·
All
sharks are dangerous.
·
All
elephants are slow.
2 .All + of + determiner + noun
The noun can be singular, plural or an uncountable noun. These nouns can
also be replaced by pronouns.
·
You need to read all of the book.
·
All of the pages are yellow and old.
·
All of the fish in the pond have died.
·
You need to remove all of them before they start to smell bad.
Note
that All of + singular noun is not common and Whole or Entire
used instead of all of.
·
You need to read the whole book (= all of the book)
We
can also remove OF before the determiner + noun (but we must use OF
before a pronoun)
·
You need to read all the book.
·
All the pages are yellow and old.
3 .Pronoun + all
Sometimes you can place All after a pronoun to
emphasize that every single one of that group is included.
·
We all hope you get better soon.
·
I hope you all have a great time.
·
I have made us all some sandwiches.
-- EACH --
Each refers to all members of a group
though we think of them more one by one (individually). Each can
be used to talk about two or more people/things.
1.Each + singular countable noun
You use a singular (countable) noun after the word Each.
·
Make sure you enjoy each moment in your life.
·
They play the national anthem of each country before the game
begins.
·
Live each day as if it were your last.
2.Each + oneOne
can be used to replace the singular countable noun if it has already
been mentioned.
·
A: What do I have to do with these antique vases? B: You need to take each
one out of the box very carefully. (each one = each vase)
3.Each of + determiner + plural noun
Each can be followed by a determiner (my, his, the, etc.) and a plural
noun.
·
I kiss each of my children before they go to bed at night.
·
The teacher had a little kid holding on to each of her hands.
·
Each of the guides has a different group to show around the museum.
Notice
how after each of the verb is usually in singular form though
when speaking informally, you will sometimes hear a plural verb used.
·
Each of my students has a different assignment to complete.
(correct use)
·
Each of my students have a different assignment to complete.
(informal use)
4.Each of + pronoun (you/us/them)
We
can only use the pronouns you/us/them after each of.
·
He gave each of us a small gift at the end of the course.
·
You need to wash each of them before use.
·
Each of you needs to complete the assignment individually.
Again
the verb following each of + pronoun should be in the singular
form.
5.Each as a pronoun
Each can be used by itself (without a
noun) as a pronoun.
·
When the students finished to course, each was given a
certificate. (Each = each of the students)
Though
it is more common to use each one instead of each
by itself.
·
…each one was given a certificate.
6.Noun/Pronoun + each
Each can be used after the noun (or
pronoun) it describes.
·
The parents gave their children some pocket money. To avoid problems,
they each received the same amount.
Auxiliary Verb/To Be + each
Each can be used after an auxiliary
verb or the verbs Are and Were.
·
I have four books to sell and they areeach worth around
five dollars.
·
They have each been told their responsibilities.
Object + each
Instead
of going before/after the subject, each can appear after the
object.
This is common when the noun object refers to an amount, how many of something there is or when giving a price.
This is common when the noun object refers to an amount, how many of something there is or when giving a price.
·
My paintings are worth $100 each (= Each of my paintings are
worth $100)
·
I gave my children each an ice cream.
-- EVERY --
Every refers to all members of a group
though considered individually. It can be used to talk about three or more
people/things.
1.
Every + singular noun
The
noun that comes after Every is in singular form.
·
I have visited everycountry in South America (we do NOT
say: every countries)
·
I can understand every word our teacher says. (we do NOT
say: every words)
Note,
when you use every + noun as a subject, it uses a singular verb
(verb + s)
·
Every
day is a chance to learn something new.
·
Every
child needs love and care.
·
Every house
on the street looks the same.
2. Every + number + plural noun
Every can be followed by a plural
noun when there is a number before that noun. This is common with periods
of time or things at regular intervals.
·
He gets his head shaved every three weeks.
·
You need to take a break every two hours.
We
can also use every without a number and a singular noun to
refer to regular intervals:
·
He plays football every Saturday.
·
She goes to the gym every day.
--A LITTLE--
non countable nouns (milk, marmalade, money,
time etc.)
--A FEW –
countable nouns (bottles of milk, jars of
marmalade, dollars, minutes etc.)
Examples:
·
He has a little money left.
·
He has a few dollars left.

THE DISCUSSION: QUESTION TAG
Question
tags
Question tags are the short
questions that we put on the end of sentences – particularly in spoken English.
There are lots of different question tags but the rules are not difficult to
learn.
Positive/negative
If the main part of the sentence is positive, the question tag is negative ….
Positive/negative
If the main part of the sentence is positive, the question tag is negative ….
·
He’s a doctor, isn’t he?
·
You work in a bank, don’t you?
... and if the main part of
the sentence is negative, the question tag is positive.
·
You haven’t met him, have you?
·
She isn’t coming, is she?
With auxiliary verbs
The question tag uses the same verb as the main part of the sentence. If this is an auxiliary verb (‘have’, ‘be’) then the question tag is made with the auxiliary verb.

·
He had met him before, hadn’t he?
·

If there is a modal verb in the main part of the sentence the question tag uses the same modal verb.
·
They couldn’t hear me, could they?
·
You won’t tell anyone, will you?
With ‘I am’
Be careful with question tags with sentences that start ‘I am’. The question tag for ‘I am’ is ‘aren’t I?’
Be careful with question tags with sentences that start ‘I am’. The question tag for ‘I am’ is ‘aren’t I?’
·
I’m the fastest, aren’t I?
Intonation
Question tags can either be ‘real’ questions where you want to know the answer or simply asking for agreement when we already know the answer.
If the question tag is a real question we use rising intonation. Our tone of voice rises.
If we already know the answer we use falling intonation. Our tone of voice falls.

In English there are many different ways to talk about the future. What can you remember about the future continuous tense with will? Here are ten sentences to see if you can remember how to form this tense. When you have completed the exercise, see if you can explain for other learners when and why we use this tense. Good luck!
Subject + will +
be + base verb + ing
"I will be
sleeping at midnight."
For negative sentences use won't
(will not) instead of will:
"I won't be
sleeping at midnight."
We use this tense to talk about an
action that will be happening at a particular moment/time in the future. The
action will have already started before that that moment/time, but will not
finish at that time.For example, I start work at 9am and finish at 5pm so if someone asks me, "What will you be doing at 10am on Monday?" I can answer, "I will be working at 10am on Monday". That action (working) will have started before that time and will finish much later.
