Question 22

adverbs

Answer 22

We use adverbs to describe how someone or something does an action.
Peter plays the piano beautifully.
(Beautifully describes how Peter plays)

We form most regular adverbs by adding –ly to the adjective
slow —> slowly
bad —> badly
quick —> quickly
careful —> carefully

If an adjective ends with –y, the adverb ends with -ily.
happy —> happily
easy —> easily

If an adjective ends with –ble, the adverb ends in –bly.
comfortable —> comfortably

Some adverbs are irregular, they do not end with –ly
good —> well
He plays the guitar well. Never say good.

He eats slowly.
She drives carelessly.
She answers kindly.
She plays football badly.
I speak English well.

Fast and hard are both adjectives and adverbs.

Question 24

Present Simple

Answer 24

We use Present Simple tense to talk about the present and things that happen regularly in life.

Positive/affirmative

I/We/You/They—————– Verb
He/She/It——————- Verb + s

Negative
To create the negative form of present simple, you need to add don’t (do not) after the subject pronoun.

I/We/You/They —————do not(don’t)+Verb
He/She/It———————–does not(doesn’t)+verb

Whenever we use “does” or “doesn’t”, our verb will stay simple without “s”.

Question form
To create questions with the present simple, you must put “Do” or “Does” at the beginning of the sentence, followed by the subject pronoun and the rest of the sentence.

Question 25

Adverbs of Frequency

Answer 25

We use some adverbs to describe how frequently we do an activity.

Remember, an adverb of frequency goes before a main verb (except for to be).

She is sometimes angry.

Question 26

everybody-everyone/nobody-no one, ….

Answer 26

After these words ‘everybody-everyone/nobody-no one/somebody/everywhere/nowhere/everything/something/nothing’ we use a singular verb.
For example: “Everybody likes chocolate.” Not “Everybody like chocolate.”

Question 27

Past Simple of Regular Verbs

Answer 27

The simple past is used to describe an action that happened and was completed in the past. The regular simple past is made by adding –ed to the base form of the verb.

I called my brother but he didn’t answer.
She typed my name wrong!

Most verbs Help→Helped Work→Worked
**Verbs that end in -e ** Hope→Hoped Like→Liked
Verbs that end in vowels+y Play→Played Enjoy→Enjoyed
Verbs that end in consonants+y Try→Tried Reply→Replied
One vowel+one consonant→ double consonant+ed Stop→Stopped Plan→Planned
Two vowels→don’t double Seem→Seemed Wait→Waited
Two consonants→don’t double Want→Wanted Help→Helped
Verbs that end in a stressed syllable Prefer→Preferred

Question 28

Past Simple Regular Verbs ?/-

Answer 28

To make a negative sentence with past simple regular verbs, we must change the tense of the verb to present and add did not/didn’t before the verb.
I/You/She/He/It/We/You/They did not/didn’t call, talk, move, look, type, play, jump, visit, live, like, dance, listen, brush, stay, finish

To make simple past questions, we must use Did + subject.
Did I/You/She/He/It/We/You/They call, talk, move, look, type, play, jump, visit, live, like, dance, listen, brush, stay, finish?

+ She talked to me about her father.
- She didn’t talk to me about her father.

+ The bird was crazy, it jumped out of the nest.
- The bird was crazy, it didn’t jump out of the nest.

Did you brush your teeth?

Question 29

You too

Answer 29

کاربرد you too در زبان انگلیسی

می توان گفت که you too نمونه بارز یک return statement در زبان انگلیسی است. این به این معنا است که زمانی که بخواهیم حرف فردی دیگر را به خود او برگردانیم، از آن استفاده می کنیم: وقتی که بخواهیم دقیقا عین امید و آرزوی او برای ما برای خودش هم صادق باشد.

مثلا زمانی که یکی به شما می گوید:
have a great day
و شما می خواهید آرزوی یک روز خوب را به خودش برگردانید و بگویید you have a great daytoo می توانید برای راحتی کار بگویید:

You too

به مثال زیر دقت کنید:

You are a terrible person.
You too (you are a terrible person, too).

کاربرد me too در زبان انگلیسی

در عوض کاربرد me too برای تصدیق آن است که شما مانند فرد گوینده احساس مشابهی نسبت به چیزی دارید.

مثلا تصور کنید که کسی به شما بگوید:
I’m so tired.
و شما هم مانند او احساس مشابهی داشته باشید: یعنی اینکه خسته باشید. می توانید در جواب به او به جای اینکه بگویید I am so tired, too فقط بگویید:

Me too

Answer 31

thin

happy→happier
sleepy→sleepier

Most other longer adjectives → more + adj

beautiful→more beautiful

Irregular adjectives
good→better bad→worse far→further

Question 33

past progressive

Answer 33

I was telling a story in the past.
Also when something small happens in a process in the past, we should use past progressive for the process, and past simple for that small thing.

We use past progressive when we want to talk about something that was happening around a past time.

I was walking down the street when I suddenly hit a lamppost.
So, in this sentence the longer action or the process was walking, right?
Exactly, and hitting a lamp post is the smaller action, so past progressive for walking and simple past for hitting a lamp post.

**Don’t use past continuous with state verbs: know, understand, love, like, hate. **

X I was loving her.

X We were knowing each other.

Question 34

Grammar-The

Answer 34

When we know what object or person we’re talking about, we use the.

We also use ‘the,’ when we are talking about something or somebody for the second time.
I have a cup. The cup is on the table.

We also use the when we are talking about unique things like the sun.

We should also use the before superlative adjectives
like
the tallest or the most handsome!

And we also use the in names with Republic, State, or Kingdom
like
the Czech Republic, the United States, the United Kingdom, etc.

Question 35

• You always say I’ve broken my (body part), and not my (body part) is broken.

I’ve broken my arm

Question 36

Reflexive pronouns

Answer 36

Reflexive pronouns are words like myself, yourself, himself, herself, itself, ourselves, yourselves and themselves. They refer back to a person or thing.

**We often use reflexive pronouns when the subject and the object of a verb are the same. **

I cut myself when I was making dinner last night.
I hope you enjoy yourselves at the party tonight!
My phone isn't working properly. It turns itself off for no reason.
We need to believe in ourselves more.

We also use reflexive pronouns to emphasize that the subject did the action, not another person.
He built the whole house himself.
(=He built it alone; Nobody helped him.)

Question 37

Grammar-for & since

Answer 37

we use “since” when we give the beginning of the time (for example since Tuesday).
And We use “for” when we give the length of the time (for example for three days).

NEVER USE “ AGO” WITH SINCE
I’ve lived here since 3 years ago. ❌
I lived here 3 years ago. ✔️

Question 38

just in present perfect

Answer 38

We use “just” with the present perfect to express that an action was completed in the very recent past.

I have just finished my homework.
He has just arrived.
They have just eaten their dinner.
I have just started feeling better.

As we can see in these examples, the structure stays the same with “just” staying in between the auxiliary verb and past participle in all of the examples.
