Reading for pleasure

 




This unit and its lessons are related to pieces of paper with letters under a cover that tell a story, books, some are just that, but for many others, they are a delight for the mind, take some cookies or snacks, coffee or tea, and sit under the window to dive into that world. Reading for pleasure is not something that many people do, but there is a rainbow of colors for every taste. 


In this unit I learned how to classify these books, according to the story they carry, their genre, these may be: 







We can describe a book by how we refer to it, the expressions we use, like these: 




             Likes:                                                                                                                 Dislikes: 

- I can't get enough of them                                                                                             -  Can't get into it 

- Can't put it down                                                                                                             - Aren't my thing

     -  real page-turner                                                                                                        - They put me to sleep

The passive causative

The causative passive is more interested in who the action is on than who is doing the action. It uses a form of have + an object and a past participle. we can see an example of its use and structure, and to make it a little clearer an example of the difference between liabilities and assets.                                   Object          Past participle they plan to have     The office     painted next week. (They’ll have someone paint them.) Can she have             her X-rays    sent this morning? (Can she have someone send them?) In the vocabulary part, I learned a little more about the services provided by people with whom we live almost every day and hardly notice, we should thank them so much for their services!

The auxiliary is observed, how it is used and its pronunciation. Here we see more or less an example of what the structure would be This is how I learned a little more and understand when we talk about actions that have already happened
