READING The most important day of the life


Recognize and underline all the pronouns. Classify them.
These young couples consider their wedding to be one of the most important days of
their life. They save for it and often spend a year planning for it. The bride chooses her
bridesmaids, and the groom chooses his best groomsmen. When the day arrives, He
doesn‟t usually see the bride before the wedding. It is considered bad luck for him to
see her ahead of time. During the ceremony the groom‟s best man holds the rings for
them. They are beautiful, until they are ready to place them on each other‟s fingers.

Reading
Everyone knows that it‟s important to eat well and get enough exercise. We see beautiful,
thin fashion models and want to look like them. They want to be thin. However, American
adults are overweight. What is the reason for this growing problem? First, lifestyle does
not include enough physical activity.
Another reason for the weight problem is the American diet. Most of these are for high
calorie foods, such as sweet cereals, sugary drinks, salty chips, and other snack foods.

COMPARATIVE
Los adjetivos describen y califican a los nombres o sustantivos ( NOUNS), pero también
se usan adjetivos para comparar personas, cosas animales, lugares. Este fenómeno lo
llamamos "comparación". La única vez que vemos cambios en la forma de los adjetivos es
con las comparaciones.
ADJETIVOS.- Cuenta cuantas silabas tiene cada adjetivo.
Funny amusing huge large Long short
Cheap expensive Strong powerful interesting practical

Comparativo de Diferencia). Cuando queremos mostrar la diferencia entre dos cosas,


lugares o personas, usamos la forma comparativa de los adjetivos. Para este tipo de
comparaciones usamos:

Si el adjetivo tiene una silaba: "adjetivo er + than" .adjetivo +.....................+ ………….

Comparativo de Inferioridad.

característica que el adjetivo describe en un nivel inferior al del otro nombre. Usamos:

"less + adjetivo + than" (………….. + adjective + que).

bad (malo) Peor que
good (bueno) mejor
little (pequeño) menos
many (mucho) más
much (mucho) más

SUPERLATIVE

Cuando se quiere comparar un miembro de un grupo con todo el grupo, en su nivel más

a.- Si el adjetivo tiene una sílaba entonces utilizamos

"the + adjetivo + est" (………………………………. + adjetivo).

Football is the most popular sport in the world. Football players are as well-known as rock
stars or actors. It is growing faster than any other sport. Beckham is probably the best
known football player in the world, although he is not the tallest or the strongest player. He
was voted the most valuable player many times. He is the most spectacular football player
of all time. Beckham‟s popularity with his fans brings him to the attention of advertisers.
He is richer than Pelé. He is paid a lot of money to have his name appear on sports
products and to appear in TV commercials. He is the highest paid athlete.

People believe that football is easier to play than baseball or basketball. Football in
Bolivia is becoming more popular than in Paraguay.

Dear Carmen,

I want to tell you something about my friend Andrea. She usually lives alone, but she has a
dog, Sparky. They are rarely separated. She is seldom bored when Sparky sleeps in bed
with her at night. She treats him like a child. She always carries a picture of Sparky in her
wallet. She often buys toys for him, especially on his birthday. She occasionally takes him
to a dog groomer in the morning. It opens daily at 8.00; the groomer gives him a bath and
generally cuts and paints his nails. She sometimes puts him in a pet hotel exactly when she
has to travel. She never leaves him with a friend.

That‟s all for today. I love you.

Sincerely

Rene

……………………………………………………………………………….

The universe is the result of a big explosion, a tremendous explosion, possibly with an
incredible noise a “ big bang”. This explosion expelled particles of matter in all directions
and enormous masses of gasses. Gravitational forces organized the particles and the gasses
into big celestial bodies. These big bodies acquired uniform circular movement. Initially,
our planet Earth was a mass of hot gasses, with no solid matter. After a long time, abundant
particles fell from space to the Earth. The planet became big and solid but it was very hot.
In more time, the planet became cold. It attracted water from space and after many years, it
was ready for life.

Finally after many more years, man appeared on the planet, as the product of God.
