When he was only four years old he was given a toy kart, and later a lawnmower engine was fitted to it.

At the age of 15, he won his first major championship – the German Karting championship. When he was nineteen, he was driving racing cars and immediately began winning. At the age of 22, he took part in his first Grand Prix, driving a Jordan, but shortly after that he joined the Benneton team. From: Reading Plus – Mary underwood – Macmillian Publishers Lt. 1994.

SIMPLE FUTURE O Futuro Simples em Inglês é usado para expressar ações futuras, e quase sempre é usado para expressar pedidos, promessas e oferecimentos futuros. Veja os exemplos: Solar energy will be an alternative kind of energy. We will be back soon. She will tell us about the computer. Estrutura: SUJEITO + will + Verbo no Infinitivo Podemos também usar o ’be’ + going to para indicar futuro, ao invés de usar o auxiliar “will”, da seguinte forma: Solar energy is going to be an alternative kind of energy We are going to be back soon Você pode abreviar o “will” da seguinte maneira: I’ll go to the beach tomorrow. Julie’ll travel to Europe. A forma interrogativa do Futuro Simples é feita colocandose o auxiliar “will” antes do sujeito, ou seja , no início da oração. Will solar energy be an alternative kind of energy? Will we be back soon? Will she tell us about the computer? A forma negativa do Futuro Simples é feita acrescentandose o “not “ ao auxiliar (will + not = won’t) . Solar energy will not (won’t) be an alternative kind of energy.


We will not (won’t) be back soon. She will not (won’t) tell us about the computer. Expressões usadas no Simple Future Tomorrow The day after tomorrow Tonight Soon week Next Month Year Monday Veja: He will come soon. She will be back next Saturday. WOULD O auxiliar “would” é muito usado para frases condicionais, assunto que veremos mais a frente, e também é um auxiliar indicativo de futuro. A estrutura da frase é “would” + o infinitivo do verbo principal. Da mesma forma que o auxiliar do Futuro Simples , “would” é usado para todas as pessoas e segue as mesmas regras para a formação de Interrogações e Negações. Veja exemplos: (affirmative) : Helen would listen to music. Their friends would call them at 6:00. (interrogative) : Would Helen listen to music ? Would their friends call them at 6:00? (negative): Helen would not (wouldn’t) listen to music. Their friends would not (wouldn’t) call them at 6:00 Lembrete: usamos “would” em oferecimentos. Would you like some tea? Would you like a piece of cake? Would you like to go to the beach?

FUTURE CONTINUOUS O Future Continuous é usado para expressar uma ação que estará acontecendo por um intervalo de tempo prolongado: Hamilton WILL BE RACING this weekend. Gerson WON’T BE DRIVING tomorrow because he is taking an Uber to go to work. WILL you BE STUDYING tomorrow at 2 pm? Estrutura: Sujeito + will be + verbo com “ing”

PLURAL FORM OF NOUNS Para formarmos o plural dos substantivos em Inglês precisamos conhecer as regras e saber usá-las corretamente. Veja a seguir como devemos aplicá-las: 1. Regra geral para a formação do plural é o acréscimo de um “s” ao substantivo: Ex.: House – houses Egg – eggs Car – cars Cloud – clouds 2. Usa-se “es” aos substantivos terminados em (s), (ss), (ch), (sh), (x) e (z) : Ex.: Bus – buses Kiss – kisses

16| Pró Floripa


Beach – beaches Topaz – topazes Quiz – quizzes Dish – dishes Ash – ashes Mas atenção: há alguns substantivos terminados em “ch”, com som de “k”, que receberão apenas “s” no plural. Veja: Epoch –epochs Monarch – monarchs Stomach – stomachs Patriarch – patriarchs 3.

Aos substantivos terminados em (Y), precedido de vogal , usa-se apenas “s”. Ex.: Day – days Boy – boys Key –keys Mas se o substantivo terminar em (Y), precedido de consoante, trocaremos o (Y) por (ies) : Ex.: City – cities Baby – babies Enemy – enemies Com nomes próprios : Kelly – Kellys Andy – Andys 4. Aos substantivos terminados em (O), precedido de vogal , usa-se apenas “s”. Ex.: Radio – radios Bamboo – bamboos Studio - studios Mas se o substantivo terminar em (O), precedido de consoante, acrescentaremos “es” . Ex.: Hero – heroes Potato – potatoes Volcano - volcanoes

Ex.: Man – men Woman – women Child – children Ox – oxen Goose – geese Foot – feet Tooth – teeth Louse – lice Mouse – mice Die - dice 7. No caso das nacionalidades terminadas em “man” trocam para “men” no plural. Frenchman – Frenchmen Englishman – Englishmen Irishman - Irishmen Mas, no caso de: German – Germans Roman – Romans Norman – Normans 8. Para a formação do plural dos substantivos compostos, forma-se pluralizando o principal elemento. Ex.: Brother – in – law - brothers – in- law Mother – in- law - mothers – in- law Mas no caso dos substantivos compostos que não são separados por hífen, recebem “s” no plural. Ex.: Armchair - armchairs Bookcase – bookcases 9. Há alguns substantivos que não possuem plural em Inglês, portanto, o verbo que os acompanha é sempre usado no singular. Ex: Information, Progress, Furniture, Advice, Baggage / Luggage, Knowledge. E.g. This furniture is very old. My luggage isn’t heavy.

Algumas palavras de origem grega e latina recebem apenas “s” Ex.: Piano – pianos Photo – photos Kilo - kilos

10. No caso dos substantivos “news, mathematics, optics, physics”, são usados com o verbo no singular, embora pareçam estar no plural. e.g. There is a good news for you. Physics is a very difficult subject.

5. Aos substantivos terminados em (F) ou (Fe), trocamos por (ves) . Ex. Leaf – leaves Loaf - loaves Knife – knives Wife – wives Shelf - shelves

11. Há alguns substantivos que não possuem singular em Inglês, assim o verbo é sempre usado no plural. Ex.: Shorts, Pants, Scissors, Trousers, etc. My scissors are on the desk. Your pants are nice.

Mas há outros que receberão apenas (S). Ex.: Roof – roofs Proof – proofs Dwarf – dwarfs Cliff – cliffs Reef – reefs Belief – beliefs Safe – safes 6. Há alguns substantivos em Inglês que não possuem regras de plural, ou seja, têm formas especiais de plural.

12. Há alguns substantivos em Inglês que são escritos no singular, mas tem sentido plural, assim o verbo que os acompanha fica sempre no plural. Ex: Cattle, Police, People. e.g. The police are coming. There are more than thirty people here. 13. Os substantivos de nacionalidades terminados em “SE” ou “SS”, permanecem na mesma forma do singular. Ex.: a Chinese - three Chinese a Swiss - two Swiss

Text 10: EAT BETTER, FEEL BETTER It is becoming more and more important to eat the right food. Experts say that the type of food you eat can damage your health. If you eat the right food, you will have a better chance of living a long and healthy life. If you eat a lot of processed food, you will be more likely to have problems with your health. If people eat food with a lot of fat in it, they will have a greater risk of getting heart disease. In some countries, people eat lees fat in their diet. Scientists have shown that fewer people get heart disease in these countries. In Spain and Italy, for example, most people have less fat in their diets than people in England. And in England, the rate of heart disease is double the rate in Spain or Italy. So if you eat less fatty food, you will live longer. You’ll feel better, feel fitter, and have more energy if you change to a simpler and healthier diet. From: Break into English – Michael Carrier & Siman Haines – Hodder & Stoughton, 1987.

Text Eleven (UFSC – 2001) PLAY BALL!!! It is hard to believe that a game as fast and exciting as soccer had its origin in a religious ceremony several thousand years ago in Egypt. At that time, the contest was between teams of pretty girls who had first taken part in a beauty contest and parade. After putting on armor, they divided into teams and fought with sticks over a round stone. The stone is believed to have represented the sun, or possibly the head of the goddess of agriculture, and this use of the round stone is thought to be the origin of all ball games. The custom of teams competing for control of a object, or ball, first spread across North Africa, the countries, and Persia. Over the years, it also spread whole world, and probably the most popular team today are soccer, baseball, and basketball.

round Arabic to the sports

Perhaps sports, like music, could be called an international language. Certainly they have done much to bring people from different countries together and to improve understanding among them. Through friendly competition, players and spectators alike have learned that people everywhere are very much the same, and that everyone appreciates good sportsmanship and fair play.

PASSIVE VOICE A voz passiva é usada para tirar o foco do sujeito da oração e passar ele para o objeto que sofreu a ação, ou até mesmo a própria ação. Em português temos [Voz Ativa] Pedro roubou minha bicicleta [Voz Passiva] Minha bicicleta foi roubada (por Pedro)* *Esse complemento é opcional, podemos terminar a frase da voz passiva no verbo. No Inglês a forma de transformar a voz da frase é semelhante ao Português. Podemos seguir a seguinte

#ORGULHODESERPRÓ |21


regra:

Seguindo a regra, o primeiro passo é pegar o objeto (quem sofre a ação) e transformá-lo no novo sujeito. Depois disso, passar os auxiliares da frase da voz ativa para a voz passiva, concordando com o novo sujeito. Então é criado um verbo “to be” na tensão do verbo principal da frase na voz ativa. Se o verbo está no presente, o verbo “to be” criado estará no presente e assim por diante. E por último, o verbo principal é colocado no particípio. Vejamos alguns exemplos: I write books. Books are written (by me). She is going to break the car. The car is going to be broken (by her). They bought a house. A house was bought (by them). We are creating a new machine. A new machine is being created (by us). Para ajudar, vamos criar uma tabela com os jeitos que o verbo “to be” pode aparecer.

TEXT Twelve SOME EASY WAYS TO MAKE FRIENDS 1. It’s hard to make friends if you stay home all the time. Get out of the house and do things that will put you in touch with other people. Join a club or play a sport. Attend meetings of neighborhood associations or other groups. It’s easier to make friends when you have similar interests. 2. Learn from people at school or work who seem to have lots of friends. Observe how they make and keep friends. Don’t imitate all the things they do. But try to notice what they do. Then try some of those things yourself. 3. Don’t be afraid to show people what you’re really good at. Talk about the things you like and do best. Don’t hide your strong points. People will be interested in you if there is something interesting about you. 4. Plan things to talk about with people. Find out what’s in the newspaper headlines, listen to the top CDs, learn about what’s new with your favorite TV or movie star. The more you have to say, the more people will be interested in having a conversation with you. 5. Be a good listener. Let people talk about themselves before talking about “me, me, me.” Ask lots of questions. Show an interest in their answers. This alone will make people want to be your friend. 6. Once you start to get to know someone, don’t be friendly one day and then too shy to talk the next day. Be consistent. Consistency is something people look for in friends. 7. Have confidence in yourself. Don’t be self-critical all the time. This will only make the process more difficult. Think of your good qualities. People are attracted to those with selfconfidence. 8. Try to make friends with the kind of people you really like, respect, and admire – not just with those who are easy to meet. Be friendly with a lot of people. From: RICHARDS, J. C. & ECKSTUT-DIDIER, S. Strategic Reading 1. CUP, 2003. (Adapted)

A best friend gives you what you expect from a parent and don't always get: unconditional love. 4. Best friends are loyal and trustworthy. A best friend is a person to whom you can tell your most embarrassing, revealing, and damaging personal secrets with the full confidence they will never be repeated. Best friends can deliver brutally honest answers in the most gentle fashion. 5. Finally, best friends are the family you choose. They love you because they want to, not because they have to. And for many people, a best friend becomes the brother or sister they'd always wanted, but never had. From: RICHARDS, J. C. & ECKSTUT-DIDIER, S. Strategic Reading 1. CUP, 2003. (Adapted)
