... practised intonation in exclamations. Remember that it goes up and down.
We listened to someone talking about the QI Quiz show and books. We discussed their points of view either agreeing or disagreeing with them.
As for vocabulary, we focused on word formation: prefixes.
Do you remember the meaning that the following prefixes add to words:
outnumber / outlaw / anti-smoking /overrated/ reawakening/misrepresented/ underestimated /prosocially / prematurely /devalued
And now, make a sentence with each one of the words to help you remember them.
Don’t forget to use reduced infinitives so as to avoid repetition:
- “Haven’t you done the washing up yet?” “No, I’m just going to.”
- “Are you coming for a walk?” “No, I don’t want to.”
“To be” is not reduced to “to”.
- She’s less moody than she used to be. She’s less moody than she used to.
- I wasn’t as impressed as I expected to be. I wasn’t as impressed as I expected to.
