1 READING

HAUNTED HOUSE

Have you seen my house? Yes, it is that creepy one there. You may be asking yourself “How has
he ended up in that place?”; well, the answer is quite simple. My family has owned this house
since 1840. As you can see, it is very old, but my family has taken care of it during all this time for
a very special reason: ghosts. My grandpa told me that the house was built on a native-American
cemetery, so it has been cursed since then. Many people have seen mysterious shadows walking
in the house and things moving; they have also heard strange noises, like a little girl crying or an
animal scratching. I haven't seen any ghosts, but I have felt them, and I have also seen what they
can do. Let me explain myself. I went to the house for my vacation and one night I saw that the
mirror of the living room was full of blood, but when I looked again there was nothing. I´m really
scared of this place, but now I have to live here for a few years because I inherited it from my
grandfather.

 UNIT 3: What if?
If clauses are conditional statements. In some cases, they are divided into type 0,
type1, type 2 and type 3.

⮚ Conditional type 0 (general truths)

This conditional is used when the result will always happen. The 'if' in this
conditional can usually be replaced by 'when' without changing the meaning.

We use: Simple Present /Simple Present

▪ If people eat too much, they get fat.

▪ People get fat if they eat too much

More Examples

▪ The baby wakes up if we make too much noise.

▪ If he phones, tell him to wait me in the garden.
▪ If you press the button, the television turns on.
▪ Do not wait for me, if I am late to presentation.
▪ If water reaches 100 degrees, it boils.

⮚ Conditional type 1 (real situations)

It's used to talk about things which might happen in the future/present. Of
course, we can't know what will happen in the future, but this describes possible
things, which could easily come true.
We use: Simple Present/Simple Future

● If it rains, I won't go to the park.

● I won´t go to the park if it rains.

More Examples

● If I study today, I'll go to the party tonight.

● If I have enough money, I'll buy some new shoes.
● She'll be late if the train is delayed.
● She'll miss the bus if she doesn't leave soon.

UNIT 4: YOU CAN DO IT

33
 *Modal verbs are followed by an infinitive verb.

*We use modal verbs for all subjects. We don´t add –ing/s/ed, etc. Example:
She can walk (She cans walk)
I can walk
He must study

*Attention! Have to (I, you, we, they)/ has to (she, he, it)
Don´t have to (I, you, we, they)/ doesn´t have to (she, he, it)

* Can and be able to express ability but can expresses a general ability and be able to expresses an
ability in a particular moment with an effort.

* Have to is a strong obligation (rules), it´s impersonal. Must is weak and personal. Sometimes we
can use both.

BE ABLE TO,CAN and COULD

PAST PRESENT FUTURE

Was able to play (hab. específica)
Were able to play (hab. específica)
Could play (habilidad general)
Am able to play (hab. específica) Will be able to play
(habilidad general y
Is able to play (hab. específica) específica)
Are able to play (hab. específica)

Can play (habilidad general)

COULD/CAN/BE ABLE TO los usamos para expresar una habilidad. Sin embargo, ellos se usan en
distintas situaciones. CAN/COULD expresan una habilidad general, ejemplo: I CAN/COULD play
football, mientras que BE ABLE TO se usa para expresar una habilidad en un momento
determinado, puede existir un esfuerzo para hacer la acción. Ejemplo: I was able to escape from
the fire.

Usamos BE ABLE TO porque uno no anda escapando del fuego todo el tiempo, se da en un
momento específico y me costó un esfuerzo.

En el caso del futuro, la única opción que existe es BE ABLE TO para cualquier tipo de habilidad. Ej.
I will be able to climb that mountain the following year.

SHOULD and OUGHT TO

Expresamos una opinión subjetiva (viene del sujeto). Es cercano a aconsejar: estaríamos
brindando nuestra opinión a nuestro interlocutor.

● It’s Mary’s birthday, you should call her.

Es decir, es un poco opcional que la felicites o no, ya que no habría mayores consecuencias si no
lo hicieras. La forma negativa sería: shouldn’t.

34
 Con ought to, en cambio, lo que decimos es una verdad en sí misma, objetiva (viene de afuera del
sujeto). El ejemplo más claro es usarlo cuando se está sujeto a leyes y otras obligaciones
reguladas.

● Mary the lawyer needs to talk to you about the case. You ought to call Mary

Fíjate además que en el caso de Ought to, la forma ought siempre se usa seguida de to: Ought+
to+ verbo principal. Recordá que la forma negativa es: ought not to

También tené presente que estos verbos son a veces intercambiables. Tienes que pensar en el
tipo de situación que se exprese en cada momento. Si tiene consecuencias legales por así decirlo,
es mayor o más rígida, usá ought to.

Modals of Ability
Put in ‘can’ / ‘can’t’ / ‘could’ / ‘couldn’t’. If none is possible, use ‘be able to’ in the
correct tense:
1. _________________ you swim when you were 10?
2. We _________________ get to the meeting on time yesterday because the train was delayed
by one hour.
3. He _________________ arrive at the party on time, even after missing the train, so he was very
pleased.
