Grammar club:

What is a gerund?

A gerund is a noun made from a verb. To make a gerund, you add "ing" to the verb.

For example:

In the sentence "I swim every day", the word "swim" is a verb.

In the sentence "I like swimming", the word "swimming" is a noun.

Therefore, "swimming" is a gerund.

In the sentence "She reads several books a week", the word "read" is a verb.

In the sentence "Reading is important", the word "reading" is a noun. Therefore, "reading" is a gerund.

Some more examples of gerunds:

buying, fishing, running, watching, telling, and so forth.

The word "gerund" actually comes from the Latin word gerere, which means "do".

You could say this actually makes sense: the gerund describes an action, something you do.

Gerunds are often used when actions are real or completed.

The following table contains a summary of the gerund topic, please read it for you to consolidate the knowledge you get on the subject after watching the explanation about the gerund in the video.

Forms of Gerund

1.    As a subject of the sentences examples: a. Running is a lot of fun when you are stressed.   b.  Smoking is prohibited in the airport.                                        c. Swimming is a very healthy exercise. 2.    It is used with patterns verbs: like, love, hate, and enjoy. Examples: I like running in the park. (Like + gerund) b. She enjoys watching horror films. (Enjoy + gerund) They hate going to the dentist. (Hate + gerund) 3.  The gerund as a complement of the subject Examples: a. The worst thing about winter is not seeing the sun.  b. One of my biggest dreams has always been traveling to Japan. 4.    Gerund after preposition examples: a. He fell asleep after watching the movie. b. She felt bad for buying too many things.  I’m interested in learning Russian. 5.    Gerund after some expressions. Examples: a. She can’t stand listening to classical music.  b. The teachers couldn’t help feeling pity for the student. c. I don’t mind working on Saturdays. 6.    Gerund is used continuous tenses. Examples: a.

Evaluation:

Form a group of students (3 to 4) to analyze a video about the advantages and disadvantages of technology nowadays.

You need to value if the use of technology has been the best thing for the wellbeing of human beings? And writing a letter to an influential organization asking for help, to minimize the bad impact (if there is one) that the technology is producing on the community. You need to present to the class.

Tips to do the task

·         You need to choose a video you would like to talk about from the followings:

What is Technology and some of its Advantage and Disadvantages: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6CWsLR5SuyU

Technology Advantages and Disadvantages, Both Black and white interface of technology: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U_o2XJnBftg

Advantages and Disadvantages of Technology: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Be7tVPZzt0

·         After watching the video, it is advisable to discuss and write down the advantages and disadvantages of the Technology

·         The group needs to name five advantages and five disadvantages of the technology and explain each of them.

·         The group needs to choose a disadvantage of a specific type of technology and thinking what can be done to minimize the bad impact that the technology is causing to this specific sector, for example, you need to choose a disadvantage, such as, the world pollution, or something else.

·         After choosing the disadvantage, you need to find out which is the best organization to contact to ask for help to minimize the bad impact on people’s lives and the environment.

·         Write a letter to the organization you chose, and then do your presentation.

·         You need to do the presentation to the group as if they were the members of the organization you contacted by letter.

You need to explain:

The problem (disadvantage), That is affecting your community due to that the local factory is using new technology.

 why you are asking them to support your group.

The plan you have is to minimize the bad impact that the technology used by the factory is causing to the community.

For example:

My opinion is that I am not sure about the fact, if the technology is the best thing for the world, as U believe that it is good for the human progress but on the other hand, it is true that the use of technology in different situations is not good, for instances, the internet is an open box where children are exposed to cyberbullying or adults can be a fraud.

If you cannot attend the synchronic meeting you need to explain it to the members of your family and record it while doing it.

ACTIVITY 1

Objective: Identifies the use of present perfect.

Basic Learning Right: Recognizes specific information in written and oral texts related to current issues.

What is technology?

Technology is all around you. It has always been a part of your daily life. Yet Could you define technology? Before I tell you what technology means, take out a piece of paper and write a paragraph.

                                                             What do you think technology is?

1.   _________________________________________________________

2.  _________________________________________________________

 Structuration:

It is time to read and find out what is the technology and something else more about it.

TECHNOLOGY   we can describe technology as products and processes used to simplify our daily lives. We use technology to extend our abilities, making people the most crucial part of any technological system. Technology is also an application of science used to solve problems. But it is vital to know that technology and science are different subjects which work hand-in-hand to accomplish specific tasks or solve problems. We apply technology in almost everything we do in our daily lives; we use technology at work, we use technology for communication, transportation, learning, manufacturing, securing data, scaling businesses and so much more.  Technology is human knowledge that involves tools, materials, and systems. The application of technology typically results in products. If technology is well applied, it benefits humans, but the opposite is true if used for malicious reasons. Technology is dynamic; it keeps on improving because our needs and demands for technology keep on changing.  We have moved from the industrial age (industrial revolution) to an information age. During the industrial age, companies with large sums of capital had the potential of employing expensive technological tools to gain the competitive advantage; small businesses had less potential because they could not afford expensive manufacturing or processing technology tools. However, advancement in technology has created a new economic environment that depends on information, and that is what we call the ‘’INFORMATION AGE’’. The information age provides a different work environment, and this has helped small businesses gain a position in highly competitive markets.

Exercise 1:

After the reading the text, please make a list of unknown words you find in the text.

Explaining in your own words the meaning of each of them.

UNKOWN WORDS	THE MEANING
Accomplish	achieve or complete successfully something (task or project)

 Exercise: 2

At this time please read the paragraph you wrote about what is technology, at the beginning

of the session and check if you were right.  Rewrite the paragraph if you think you need to give a better explanation.

GRAMMAR CLUB: Read this part to find out some tips about how to improve your writing skills.

The present perfect is a verb tense that is used to show that an action has taken place once or many times before now.

PRESENT PERFECT

The present perfect is a verb tense that is used to show that an action has taken place once or many times before now. As it is shown below.

 How the present perfect is formed?

Subject + have/has + main verb (past participle)                                         

The past participle of some verbs:

Example: The technology has used all the scientific information to develop the latest devices.

When do we use the present perfect:

We use the present perfect to say that an action happened at an unspecified time before now.

The exact time is not important. We CAN use the present perfect with unspecific expressions such as:

 ever, never, once, many times, several times, before, so far, already, yet, etc.

There are basically three situations that we use present perfect. It is always used to talk about an action or

event in the past that has some kind of connection to now.

1.    To talk about life experience (I have the memory now)

I have been to Paris.

I have never drunk whisky.  

2.    Action/ event is still true now

The technology has existed since ancient times.

People has watched TV since it was discovered.

3.    The result of the action is important or clear now

The technology has improved the small business earnings.

The boy has broken his arm

Exercise: Now give 3 examples where you used the present perfect accordingly.

For example, educational technology has used great sources of tools to help students since the time it exists.

The Gamers Once two boys named Alex and Jack both loved playing Call of Duty. One day they were playing it so much that they didn’t notice a strong force pushing them towards the TV screen… Suddenly they found themselves in a large room full of people and deadly weapons. Then it hit them they had been sucked into a game but not just any game Call of Duty. Then a tall man came up to them and said, “Gear up boys”. They did as they were told and geared up. Alex chose two laser blasters and a sword; Jack took a grenade gun and a rocket launcher. The doors to the arena opened and they were ready for it. Soldier after soldier streamed out of the iron gates like a river going downhill. There were already people in the arena that Alex and Jack thought were the other team. The arena was full of buildings and shelters. In the middle of the arena, there was a giant countdown to zero. When it hit zero Alex and Jack ran to the nearest fort where they defended for the whole game! Their team won. Now Alex and Jackson knew they had to figure how to get home. They tried to remember what happened when they were playing but all they could remember was a strong force pushing them forward. A few years had passed now and the boys were helping an injured soldier “We need to get him to a medic!” said Alex. But then the game ended and they went to their room in the building. In their room, they had countless medals and trophies but in the middle of the room, there was something different. It was a purple light that looked like a portal but after a few seconds, they saw shadows appearing. The shadows suddenly turned into zombies…  They only just destroyed the zombies before they got to the central arena so their guards were very surprised when they saw the zombies. On the 12th of November the boys got so curious that they found themselves planning to go into the portal. One night they met in the corridor and headed towards the now-called portal room. They met a guard along the way he got very curious so they Tasered him when they got to the room it seemed as though the moon was shining straight onto the portal. They counted down” 3,2,1,” and they jumped in.

Nivel de desempeño sociolingüístico: Sustenta de manera oral y escrita sobre temas de su interés

Nivel de desempeño pragmático: Expresa su opinión en textos argumentativos orales y escritos relacionados con temas de su interés.

Step 1, Exploration:.

People use Piercing and tattoos as another way to express themselves It seems that as many young adults are getting older, they're having a greater need to express their individuality and to show who they really are. Moreover, piercings and tattoos have been around for thousands of years now, being used to express religion by patterns and symbols.

Much alike, people get tattoos that express their interests by getting quotes from their favorite songs, a movement that has been important (such as Me-too) and many other things. Piercings, like tattoos, can be plain, dainty, bold or eye-catching; there are many types of piercings and each of those piercings have different names and has a distinctive style of jewelry. Virtually everyone is able to get a piercing in any place that they would like in any placement, though some hurt more than others (of course)

A tattoo is a permanent mark or design made on your skin with pigments inserted through pricks into the skin's top layer. Typically, the tattoo artist uses a hand-held machine that acts much like a sewing machine, with one or more needles piercing the skin repeatedly. With every puncture, the needles insert tiny ink droplets.

The process — which is done without anesthetics — causes a small amount of bleeding and slight to potentially significant pain. And it could cause some health problems such as allergic reactions, skin infections, bloodborne diseases like hepatitis B and C among others.

Piercings might be more common than ever, but don't take piercing lightly. Potential risks and complications include: allergic reactions, skin infections and scars, as well as keloids, which are an overgrowth of scar tissue, bloodborne diseases and tearing or trauma or specific to the tongue piercing, damage to teeth and gums, and difficulty chewing, swallowing and breathing

1. ___________________________________________ 

2. ______________________________________

Step 3, Practice:

Activity 1:

If I had a tattoo on my skin, I would have more change to get an infection.

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Step 4, Evaluation:

Activity 1.

This time, you are going to work with a classmate to interview each other or a member of your family, if you cannot participate in the synchronic meetings.

Taking into account the topics studied in this period on the different lifestyles: Sports: Extreme sports and common sports, Healthy tips: Eating and exercises habits and Social practices: Piercing and body tattoos. Their pros and cons, I invite you to interview a person.

You will be able to find out the point of view of a person about the following statement:

IF YOU HAD A BALANCED LIFE, YOUR MIND WOULD BE BETTER.  

Tips to do the interview:

In order to write your interview and answering the interview you need to do the following things:

1. Read all the information you received in the guide and at the English´s synchronic meetings.

2.When writing, use all the grammar you have seen till now. 

3.Organize your ideas according to what you think and understand about the subject in discussion to write the questions, these should have coherence

4.Prepare the questions you are going to ask.

For example:

·         If you had practiced common or extreme sports in the past, would you be able to have a balanced life now? Explain, why yes or why not.

·         If you had had an opportunity would you do some tattoos on your skin? Why you say yes or why you say not or I do not know.

·         Do you think that doing a tattoo or piercing on your skin, would help you to have a balanced life? Explain why you say yes or why you say no.

·         If you had chosen to do some healthy options, would you be able to have a balanced life now? Explain why you say yes or why you say not.

·         Do you think that if you have a balanced life it would help you to get a better mind? Explain your answer.

·         please, tell me, what could you do to have a balanced life, and if could it help you to get a better mind?

5.    When answering the questions, you need to justify your points of views with real arguments.

For example:

Piercing the body is not as simple as it sounds. This practice can be dangerous because the skin is open and can become infected.   I agree because I know some people who had skin problems at the time they got the piercing. It seems to me that this is not a healthy practice since it could affect physical health, which would impact the balance of our lives and cause stress.   People should be aware of what they are doing to maintain a balanced life and ensure a better mind.

 Finally, you need to write the script of the interview.

Sent the script and a video about one of the interviews you did to your teacher, if you cannot participate at the synchronic meeting., d.ine.martha.mazuera@cali.edu.co

ACTIVITY 2

Mes de julio 2021

Apreciado estudiante, esperamos te encuentres bien en compañía de tu familia.

Estándares: Con mi vocabulario trato temas generales, aunque recurro a estrategias para hablar de hechos y objetos cuyo nombre desconozco.

Niveles de desempeño:

Elabora textos orales y escritos de recomendaciones sobre temas académicos de interés.

Reconocer la importancia del lenguaje en la resolución de conflictos.

Nivel de desempeño lingüístico: Identifica estructuras básicas del tiempo pasado simple.

Nivel de desempeño sociolingüístico: Sustenta de manera oral y escrita sobre temas de su interés

Nivel de desempeño pragmático: Expresa su opinión en textos argumentativos orales y escritos relacionados con temas de su interés.

Step 1, Exploration:

Read the following text and try to understand it.

Path to Improved Health

You can break down the concept of health into different categories. Now you will read two: physical and mental categories. There are things any person can do to stay healthy in these areas. But as a teenager, there are some things you should pay special attention to.

1      Physical health: Taking care of your body.       

Exercise regularly. Teens should be physically active for at least 60 minutes every day.·    

      Eat a healthy diet. Healthy eating is an important part of your growth and development. Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables, whole grains, a variety of protein foods, and low-fat dairy products.

·       Maintain a healthy weight: Be aware of the eating disorder, you need to prevent it as it can make you ill and affect your physical and mental health. Some of the most common types of eating disorders are:

• Anorexia. People with anorexia eat very little on purpose. This leads to a very low body weight. have an intense fear of weight gain. They fear looking fat and have a distorted body image of themselves. They see themselves as fat even when they are very thin. People with anorexia are very strict about what and how much they will eat. They may think about food or calories almost all the time.
• Bulimia. People with bulimia overeat and feel out of control to stop. This is called binge eating. They do things to make up for overeating. After it, they may make themselves throw up on purpose. This is called purging. They also prevent weight by using laxatives, diuretics, fast, or exercise a lot. They judge themselves based on body shape and weight.
• Obesity: Children and teenagers with obesity are more likely to have obesity as an adult. They are also at higher risk for other chronic illnesses, depression, and bullying.

Get enough sleep. Most teens need between 9 and 9 ½ hours of sleep every night. Many average only 7 hours. Sleep has a strong effect on your ability to concentrate and do well at school.

·        Keep up with vaccinations. Get a flu shot every year. If you haven’t gotten the HPV vaccine, ask your parents and doctor about it. It can prevent you from getting HPV and some kinds of cancer, including cervical cancer.

·         Brush and floss your teeth. Make it a habit now, and prevent tooth and gum problems in adulthood.

·         Wear sunscreen. Getting just one bad sunburn as a child or teenager increases your risk of getting skin cancer as an adult.

·         Don’t listen to loud music. This can damage your hearing for the rest of your life.

2.Mental health: Taking care of your mind        

Learn ways to manage stress. You can’t avoid stress, so you need to learn how to manage it. This will help you stay calm and be able to function in stressful situations.

Study and do your best in school. There is a strong link between health and academic success.

Try to maintain a good relationship with your parents. Remember that they want what is best for you. Try to see where they are coming from when they set rules.

Develop a good balance between school, work, and social life.

Don’t try to take on too much. Limit your activities to the most important ones and give that 100%. Overextending yourself can lead to stress, frustration, or exhaustion.

After reading the text please create a bank word with the meaning of the unknown words.

B. STRUCTURATION:

Grammar club: 

PAST PERFECT

The past perfect expresses the idea that something occurred before another action in the past. It can also show that something happened before a specific time in the past.

 For example:

Here, we use the past perfect to show that the first even finished before the second event happened.

 

Mary had taken her food to her job to eat it there, last week, as the restaurant were closed due to the National March.

Mary is the Subject 

Had is the verb have in past

Taken is the verb in the past participle. 

It is important to review the regular and irregular verbs as the main issue to form the past perfect is to know the past and the past participle of the verbs.

Exercise 1.

Write a 3 lines paragraph about how ate last year. You need to use the past perfect.

Example:

I had not eaten healthy food last year, because I did not have money at that time,

I had lost my job and it was difficult to live with little money. My cousin had helped me all the time, she gave me some money to buy the basic food every month

_________________________________________________________________

Step 3, Practice:

Activity1.

After Reading the text about healthy eating and tips to keep healthy, I invite you to write in English three arguments giving in the text to assure people about what they can do to keep healthy.

For example:

Eating disorders need to be prevented as they could affect people's physical and mental health performance.

Yes, I agree with it, because I understand that being tiny is not healthy and vomiting your food is not good for your digestive system and it makes you feel guilty.

1.    ___________________________________________________________

2.    ___________________________________________________________

3.    ___________________________________________________________

Activity 2: Do you agree with these arguments? Please write why you said yes or no.

Subsequently, you need to do a comparative table where you propose some changes that you would make about your health, taking into account the two health tips recommended in the text.

The table should be socialized in the synchronic meeting. It must be done in English.

For example:

Tip	Before	Proposal
Physical health	-I went to my bed at 4 AM.	-I should sleep 8 hours.
Mental health

 Activity 1:  Form a group of students (3 to 4) to create a healthy eating and exercise program to avoid some health problems like eating disorders or anxiety aiming to keep a balanced life that helps to get a better mind.

When writing the program's tips, you need to write using the past simple and past perfect.

Explain what care must be taken to have a balanced life, physically and mentally.

What can be the consequences of eating non-nutritious meals?

What would you say to people who care too much about their personal image, and think they are fat?

For example:

KEEP WELL ALL THE TIME, START NOW      If you had good health habits, you should be healthier now! It doesn't matter if you have had physical or mental health problems, what is important is that you are participating in this eating and exercise program. It is about how to have a balanced lifestyle by improving your physical and mental health. 150 minutes of moderate aerobic exercise per week (for example, 30 minutes on each of five days) or 75 minutes of vigorous aerobic activity (or an equivalent- lent mix of the two). Two or more strength training sessions per week, with at least 48 hours in between to allow muscles to recover. Balance exercises for older adults at risk for falls. Start a planned meal program (we can help you to have your own personal eating healthy program). Check with your friends or family how you are eating, if you eat a lot, it is not good for your health or if you eat too little it is not good as well because you could develop some eating disorders problems. You need to be honest and look for help. You need to sleep at least 6 hours if you are an adult but 9 hours is the best for adolescents.

Activity 2.

After creating the Healthy eating and exercise program, you need to present the program to the class in a synchronic meeting.

You need to know how to introduce to the group when presenting the program, for instances

• Good afternoon, our purpose today is…
• My group members are… and
• I am…

If you cannot attend the synchronic meeting you need to explain it to the members of your family and record a video it while doing it. Then send the video to the teacher.

Step 2, structuration:

Please read the following text:

SPORTS Nowadays sports play an important role in people's lifestyles. For children, playing sports can help develop friendships centered on healthy, safe and enjoyable activities, good self-esteem, endurance, and perseverance. Adults who play sports also have the opportunity to develop friendships centered around an active lifestyle. At this opportunity, you will read a text about some famous Colombian sports players. Currently, the Colombian sport is well recognized around the world. It is the fruit of an effort that required several years. We introduce some of the athletes who, long before Mariana Pajón and James Rodríguez, had the world’s eyes focusing on Colombia. In the history of the Colombian sport, it is difficult to forget feats such as the medal of the fellow paisa Ximena Restrepo at the Olympic Games in Barcelona or Lucho Herrera's victory in the Vuelta a España. Long before the name of our national athletes occupied the front pages of the newspapers all over the world, these heroes achieved, with effort and dedication, some of the most memorable victories of the national sport. Today we want the world to recognize those athletes who paved the way for Falcao, Catherine Ibargüen, Nairo Quintana, Mariana Pajón and all the representatives who each day continue to add victories and fill the country with pride. 6. Helmut Bellingrodt Colombia’s first Olympic medal was obtained by this Barranquillero sportsman of German descent, in the Munich Games, in 1972. In addition to obtaining silver in the moving target, repeated the Olympic medal in Los Angeles, 1984. Bellingrodt and Jackeline Rentería (bronze in Beijing 2008 and London 2012) is the only Colombian sportspeople who have ever stood at the podium at the Olympics in two different games. 1. Ximena Restrepo This paisa woman made the 1992 Barcelona Olympics a memorable moment for the country thanks to the bronze medal obtained in the 400 m athletics race. Despite making history in these games, Ximena had already participated in the Olympics in Seoul in 1988. Throughout her career as an athlete, she went on to win the Ibero-American Championships in Havana (1986), the South American Championships in Quito and Santiago de Chile, and the Junior World Championships in Greece. 2. Miguel “Happy” Lora “Happy”, as he is popularly known, was the first Colombian to become bantamweight boxing champion in 1985 and went on to retain his title for three years. During the time of his reign, he has considered one of the best fighters in the world thanks to his reflexes, his ducking and weaving, and the accuracy with which he hit his opponents. This Monteriano was chosen as Sportsman of the Year in Colombia exactly a year after his world title. His name is part of the history of Colombian boxing. Adapted from: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VdHHus8IgYA https://www.sportsrec.com/8127260/what-is-the-importance-of-sports-in-our-lives https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sport_in_Colombia

“Write a text in English using the past simple and present, where you express your point of view about, if you practice common and extreme sports could help you to keep a balanced life and how it would help to have a better mind” You need to refer to extreme sports in the past and nowadays.

Type of sport	What is it?	Benefits	Risks
Common	·         defined as an athletic activity that involves a degree of competition, such as netball or basketball. Some games and many kinds of racing are called sports. A professional at a sport is called an athlete. Many people play sports with their friends. soccer. ·         basketball. ·         tennis. ·         baseball. ·         golf. ·         running. volleyball. ·         badminton.	It is also said young people who played sports during high school had a better career outlook and performed better in their jobs later in life, there is less chance that young girls who practice sports get early pregnancies, increase the self-esteem, reduce stress and anxiety and the chance to use drugs.  Physical activity plays an important role in preventing mental health problems and improve the quality of life of those experiencing them.	There are risks associated with any sport as these involve body movements. But there is less risk than when practicing extreme sports.
Extreme	Characterized by high speeds and high risk. The sports most commonly placed in this group are skateboarding, snowboarding, freestyle skiing, in-line roller-skating, street lugging, and BMX and mountain biking.	These are becoming increasingly popular. ... This is most likely linked to several factors, ranging from the increased adrenaline rush all the way to the positive mental and physical health aspects of participating in an extreme sport.	Extreme sports have higher rates of injury than most traditional sports because of their dangerous nature, environmental element, and lack of access to medical care. Following a traumatic injury, loss of blood is often the cause of death.

3. Would you prefer to play common sports rather than extreme sports?

4. Do you think that playing common or extreme sports can contribute to getting a balance in life to have a better mind?

For example: It seems to me that extreme sports in the past were a way to trained themselves to survive, for example, they need to hunt so they practice the bull to get more skills when they were to hunt.

·         I think that people who practiced extreme sports in the past and now put their lives at risk. It seems to me it is a dangerous activity to practice.

·         I believe that people who lived in the past had to practice extreme sports to get more skills to survive, like hunting. It is my opinion that common sports are a good way to socialize and keep in shape without putting your health at risk.

STEP 1 EXPLORATION

Last time, you learn the conditional 1 and you did some practice.

This week, you will review the first and second conditional.

1.1 El siguiente texto se relaciona con los efectos de la música en el ánimo de los seres humanos. Busca las palabras desconocidas y trata de comprender su sentido.

"Music is the most direct art, it enters through the ear and goes to the heart" Music is one of the fundamental tools that human beings use, and it is scientifically proven that it has direct influences on mood and quality of life. The rhythm of the song is related to muscle activation and / or relaxation, causing motor inhibition and a feeling of peace in the case of slow rhythms, and motor activation and externalization of feelings in the case of fast rhythms Music is therefore a fundamental stimulus in the life of human beings, it entertains us, amuses us, distracts us, helps us face problems, stimulates the senses, motivates us, inspires us, relaxes us ... in short, it has the power to elevate moods above worries. Tomado y adaptado: Mercedes Castillo Chinchilla Neuropsicología de ACTIVA, San Sebastián de los Reyes –  Alcobendas.

STEP 2 CONCEPTUALIZATION

GRAMMAR CORNER:

Zero conditional

 

DIFERENCIAS CON EL PRIMER CONDICIONAL

Se puede decir que la principal diferencia entre el ZERO y el FIRST CONDITIONAL es que el zero se usa para hablar de generalidades, creencias y verdades universales, mientras que el first se usa para hablar de situaciones concretas muy probables. Ahora observe el siguiente ejemplo:

Zero: If you sit in the sun for too long, you get sunburnt. — Si te quedas al sol mucho rato, te quemas.

First: If you sit in the sun for too long, you will get sunburnt. — Si te quedas al sol mucho rato, te vas a quemar.

Puede verse que, en el primer ejemplo, se habla de algo que ocurre en general. En el segundo, se refiere a una persona, se menciona un caso en particular. Una manera de saber la diferencia es preguntarse si se está hablando en general o de un caso concreto.

Ejemplos de oraciones en condicional cero

If you heat water to 100 degrees, it boils. (Si calientas agua a 100 grados, hierve)

If public transport is efficient, people stop using their cars. (Si el transporte público

es eficiente, la gente deja de usar sus autos)

If you cross the line, you are in our country. (Si cruzas la línea, estás en nuestro país)

If children study, then their parents are happy. (Si los niños estudian, sus padres son felices)

Plants die if they don’t get enough water. (Las plantas mueren si obtienen suficiente agua)

If you mix red and blue, you get purple. (Si mezclas rojo y azul, obtienes violeta)

Now you can read more examples:

If I have time, I’ll call you.

If she has enough money next year, she’ll buy a motorbike.

If I go to Paris, I’ll visit my friend John.

If the weather is good, we’ll go to the beach.

Three stages of adolescence are mainly recognized, named: Early adolescence, Middle adolescence, late adolescence. Different developments take places the origin in each state, at as more each state one by one. Early adolescence ranges from 12 to 13 years. During this stage a lot of hormonal and physical changes take place concerns regarding one´s body image start to the surface during this stage. The teens begin to get uncomfortable around their parents and start going out more and seek new friends. They have a tendency to engage in risky endeavors. They have a tendency to tighten same-sex friends and distance themselves from the opposite sex as they from to have averse or confusing feelings about them. Middle adolescence ranges from 14 and 17 years. During this stage, the teens distance themselves all the more from their parents. They begin to feel their parents cut off their independence and start revolting against them. Most teens would have puberty fully in this stage and new body image and beauty becomes all more important to them. This also the stage when their aversion to the opposite sex starts deteriorating and more of and interest starts building. Late adolescence ranges from 17 and 21 years. During this stage emotional social and intellectual development starts and progresses steeply. By now physical development would have more or less reached a peak. Also, interest and intimacy towards the opposite sex become much more pronounced. The teens slowly transform into adults in this stage and thereby become more concerned with what they want to do with their lives. They start thinking about the careers they need to take up.

You can use the following text, as an example to write your own text. 

Text number 1

Text number 2

I don´t have a good relationship with my parents, they are too strict, they never accept my opinion. I think they are old-fashioned. During the week, I almost never see my father, and my mother is always busy. They don´t listen to my problems, they simply don´t have the time or the will to do so. They are too worried about their jobs and the only thing that matters to them is my marks at the end of the term.

My family is really great. My parents and my brother are very understanding and are always there when I need them, they are my best friend so when I have a problem they are my advisers. We talk about everything, and there are no taboos among us. At weekends, we spend a lot of time together. I like discussing football with my father, he´s an expert on the matter.
