PerformancesMost of the performers played 6 ..__ songs.
There were some delays between performances.
Blue were the main band; they played last.
I thought Craig David was the best performer;his singing and dancing were excellent, and theaudience responded very welL
ConclusionbTo sum up, the show was 7_. long.which was <good value for moQeY. Not all
performers were equally good, though, andperhaps it would be a good idea to cut thenumber of performers. This show is touring thecountry, and my recommendation is that, if you
like just two or three of the artists. you shoulddefinitely go and see it. dOverall, it I.V8S anexcellent (?\>@ning, with something for everyone.

Study helparning and recording words in context
-; very important to record words that you learn in a context .. in other words,: :;n't record them as words on their own.
Coo r example: if you learn the verb ·worry'. you could record it as one word and thente a translation, e_g. 'worry = se preocupar.
• C Jt in order to u~e the word 'worry', you need to know and remember words thatwith it .. e.g_ the preposition 'about'. So it's much better to write a sentence or
_-'3se that uses the other words too. e.g. 'She never seems to worry about'-tthing'. (You can add a translation if you think it's important and usefuL)
-, also a good idea to record Y9'!.'..own sentences/phrases, about things which are2 for you - th,s makes new language much more memorable.
-" sentences/phrases in your notebook (or here) which will help you remember and--",se words from the unit:

If graffiti is the art of today's streetwise teenagers, thenskateboarding is their sport. Skateboarding has neverbeen more popular. There are an estimated 200.000skaters in the UK. Most cities and towns have official skateparks. Many are provided by the local council and these areoften free. Others are owned by private companies andskaters usually have to pay to use the facilities. Some ofthese parks, such as the Epic Skate Park in Birmingham andBones Skate Park in Manchester, are famous throughoutthe skating world.
Skating has also become big business and there aremany companies selling skateboards, skating accessoriesand fashion items.
Part of the rise of the popularity of skating is because ofits inclusion in the extreme sport sceneand competitions like the X-games andthe urban games offer large moneyprizes for the winners. Competitors inthe events can become very famous inthe skating world. Professional skaterslike Raphael Brunis from France andDanny Cerezini from Brazil are oftensponsored by companies to usetheir products.

[]IMel Gibson is Jorry Fleteher. a New York taxi driver witha conspiracy theory for everything. He publishes his ideason the Internet. One day one of his theories upsetssome very powerful men and suddenly his life is inserious danger.
CDThe only person who can help him is also the womanhe ;s secretly in love with. Julia Roberts plays Alice
Sutton, a justice department lawyer. She wants nothingto do with Fletcher at first but suddenly finds herselfdrawn into his world.
Conspiracy Theory is a well-written. entertaining filmwhich successfully mixes twO popular genres. Asa thriller, there is plenty of action to keep the audienceon the edge of their seats and. as a romance. we endup belieVing that a top lawyer really could fall in lovewith a taxi driver.
[11Perhaps the reason for this is in the strength ofthe acting. Gibson is at hiS best as the paranoid Fletcher(so paranoid that he keeps his food locked in canisters,locked inside his fridge).
And Julia Roberts reminds us that as well as being one ofthe most beautiful women on the planet. she is also oneof the world's finest actresses.
But good as Gibson and Roberts are, the bestperformance of the film is from Scar Trek's PatrickStewart as Dr Jones, a psychologist from a sinistergovemment department. Every minute he is on thescreen he leaves the audience wondering what evil he
• will do next.
My only criticism is the last 20 minutes of the film, whendireaor Richard Donner forgets his convincing. tensestoryline and the film descends Into a traditional good vs.bad shoot-out. Maybe because he's working with Mel
Gibson again, Donner suddenly seems to think he'sdirecting the next in his series of Lethal Weapon movies.

Romeo and Julietthe greatest love story of all times
Read the article. For each question ~irclv
the correct answer, a, b or c.
Read
Since the invention of the motion picture in 1894,Romeo andJuliet has been one of the most popularstories in films. Numerous movies have been based onShakespeare's famous love story. the earliest datingback to 1900.
In Luhrmann's version of the film, the main characters,Romeo (Leonardo di Caprio) and Ju/iet (Ciare Danes),are Miami teenagers of the nineties. Even though thesetting of the film IS very unconventional, it contains allthe themes of the original version.. because it does notchange the story at all.
Many directors have taken this famous play and madeit into a film. trying to keep to the themes of theoriginal story.
One of them is Baz Luhrmann. His version of Romeoand Juliet. produced in 1996. has been described as anoriginal. post-modern version of Shakespeare's tragiclove story.
With this extremely successful film, Luhrmann hasmanaged to update the story - by combining modem,day settings and characters with almost the originallanguage. he story is set in Miami. The changes in thelanguage, together with dramatic gun fights andpassionate love scenes. make the story more accessibleto modem audiences.

Present perfect simple with for and since
We can use the present perfect Simple to talk about actions in a period of time that started in thepast and continues to the present, with for or since. It answers the question How long ,..?

You haven't eaten meat for as long as / can remember,

We often add these words to the present perfect for emphasis,

100 Grammar reference
" use yet at the end of negative sentences to emphasise that something didn't happen: A probably will in the future). and at the end of questions.haven't started this exercise yet. (but f will)
ave you met my new boyfriend yet?
- We use still before haven't in negative sentences, or before not in questions, to show surprisethat something you expected to happen didn't happen.{can't believe you still haven't said sorry
Has she still not told you the truth?
Unit 2Past simple vs. present perfect simple
We use the past simple to talk about complete events which are finished, or before 'now',the moment of speaking.I called you yesterday Where were you?
We didn't have computers when I was born.
2 We use the present perfect simple to connect the past and 'now', the moment of speaking.We've called you three times today Where have you been?
We've lived in the some house all our lives.
3 We use different time expressions with the past simple and the present perfect.Use the past simple with ten minutes ago. yesterday. lost week, when {was ... ete.We often use far. since, just, already, yet, ever and never with the present perfect.They went out a few minutes ago. They've just left.
I saw that film yesterday. I've already seen that film.
I met her boyfriend last weekend. I've never met your girlfriend.
We moved there when { was young. We've lived there since I was a child.
Unit 3Past simple vs. past continuous
We use the past simple to talk about actions that happened at one moment in time in the past.We use the past continuous to describe the background actions in progress around that time inthe past.I WaS playing football. (background) I broke my leg (action)
We were having a picnic. (background) It started to rain. (action)
What were you doing? (background) {called you. (action)
I wasn't paying attention. (background) {got hit by 0 car. (OCl ion)
2 It is common to use when with the past simple to introduce the past action, or while with thepast continuous to introduce the background.{broke my leg while I was playing football.
We were having a picnic when it started to rain.
What were you doing when I called you?
While {wasn't paying attention. {got hit by a car.

As soon as I got home. I turned on the TV for the big game.
The picture came on, then I learned the bad news.
Someone scored as I waS making 0 sandwich.
Grammar reference 101-
You shouldn't worry so much.
She ough t not to be so pessimistic.
He'd better not come near me.
Past simple vs. past perfect
We use ,roE past simple to talk about an event that happened at a specific time in the past.We ,"se me past perfect when we need to emphaSise that one event happened before another.The marcn had started when we got there.
When I got ro the street I realised I hadn't brought his address with me.
Iknew we'd met beFore somewhere.
How long had you been there when they finally arrived?
2 Sometimes It is necessary to use the past perfect to make the meaning clear.She'd left when 1got there, (I didn't see her.)
She left when Igot there (but I saw her).
I went to the party. There was food there (and it was deliCiOUS).
I went to the party. There had been food there (but 1was too late to get some).
3 It is not necessary to use the past perfect when before or after is used.She left before 1got there.
4 It is wrong to use the past perfect when a story is told in the same order as the events happened.I went in. said hello, and left straight away.
butI went back inside becouse I'd fargotten to soy goodbye to some people.
Unit 4Present perfect simple vs. present perfect continuous
We use the present perfect simple to emphasise the result or completion of an activity.I've copied that CO you asked me for. Here it is.
I've bought everybody's presents. Aren't I orgonisedl
We use the present perfect continuous to emphasise the actiVity. not the result or completionof the activity (it may not be finished).
I've been copying CO's all morning. Great fun!
I've been shopping for presents. That's why I wasn't here.
2 We use the present perfect simple to emphasise 'how many'.I've done ten exercises this morning.

How many sandwiches have you made?
We use the present perfect continuous to emphasise 'how long'.I've been doing exercises for hours.
You've been eating coke since you got here!
How long have you been making sandwiches?
3 Remember that some verbs express a 'state'. and are not normally used in the continuous form.I've always loved you. (NOT (vc a...."a>'§ Been [s,'iRg ...)
We've never had 0 big. expensive cor (NOT We·...e ,ledr aeen Ra ..ing ... )
should / ought to / had better
We use should or ought to to give advice. or say what we think is a good (or bad) idea. They have thesame meaning. Remember, should is a modal verb. and is used without to. We use hod better to givestronger advice or warnings. The form is always past (never~ better), but the meaning is present.Hod better is also used without to.
You should take 0 rest.
She ought to be more coreful.
He'd better start doing some work,

Unit 5Future review
There are three common ways of talking about the future in English.

There's a test tomorrow, so I'm going to revise for it tonight. (intention)
I feel awful! , think I'm going to be sick. (process)
I didn't like their lost CD, so I'm not going to buy their new one. (intention)

My father will prabably / is likely to shout at me.
They might not let me go out again next weekend
My brother probably won't / isn't likely to help me.
But next weekend, my parents won't remember what happened!
First conditional with if and unless
In first conditional sentences:
a both verbs refer to actions or events in the future;
b the verb tense after the words if or unless is present simple;
c the verb tense in the other clause is will or won't;
d we can use if or unless (which means 'if not');
e when we use unless, the verb that follows is in the positive.
Grammar reference 103
For example:
If my friends visit me (tomorrow), we'll go out for lunch.
1'/1 take them to the Chinese restaurant unless they want to eat pizza,(~ .... if they don't want to eat pizza.)

The present perfect passive
We form the present perfect passive with hove/has been + past participle.Our old house isn't there any more - it's been pulled down.

The future passive
We form the future passive with will be / won't be + past participle,Those trees will be cut down next month.

Causative have (have something done)
This structure has the form hove + noun + past participle.

My grandparents wont to hove their house painted. (= They wont to pay 0 pointer to pointtheir house.)
We've had our cor repaired. (= We've token our cor to 0 garage and someone has repaired itfor us. Now it's OK again.)

Modals of deduction (present)
To make a guess about a present situation, we can use the modal verbs can't, must,might and could.
2 When we are sure something is true, we use must.

3 When we are sure something is not true, we use con't.

They could be brother and sister They look quite similar.
Unit 12Indirect questions
After expressions like I don't understand .... I wonder .... I want to know ... and I don'tknow ... we often find question words. However, what comes after the question wordis not a question, and does not follow the word order for questions.

I don't know when we will arrive. (NOT I don't know when ·...il.' "e a, rio'e.)

2 If we want to ask less direct questions, we can use an expression such as Con you tell me ....Do you hoppen to know ... and Do you know ... . This is the question, so what comes afterthese expressions does not follow the word order for questions.
Con you tell me where the toilets are? (NOT Can you tell me where a.,," t/;e teilets'')
Do you happen to know if he's French? (NOT Do you happen to know i5 Re ,c, e.,eR?)

Unit 15Defining and non-defining relative clauses
We use relative clauses to add information about the subject or object of a sentence.
2 Relative clauses are introduced by words like that, which, where, who and whose.
We use that / which to refer to things.
That's the car that / which almost killed me.
We use that / who to refer to people.
The woman who / that served me was American.
We use where to refer to places.
These photos were taken in Paris, where we went for our holiday last year.
We use whose to refer to possession.

3 Sometimes the information is essential to know what exactly we are talking about. In these caseswe use a defining relative clause and we don't use a comma.
My brother who lives in Canada is an architect.(= f have more than one brother but I am talking about the one who lives in Canada.)
4 Sometimes the information is additional. We don't need it to understand what we are talkingabout. This is a non-defining relative clause. The extra information is included between commas.(NB In these sentences we can't use that.) For example:
My brother, who lives in Canada, is an architect.(= I only have one brother. He lives in Canada and is an architect.)
Definite, indefinite and zero article

a when something is unique.

Shes not really used to young children.
3 be used to refers to a state.I'm not used to working so hard

5 Don't confuse these expressions with used to, which refers to past habits and is followedby an infinitive without to.We used to spend our holidays in the south of France when J was a child
The grammar of phrasal verbs
Phrasal verbs have two or three parts.Guess who I bumped into yesterday? (met by chance)
J really look up to my Maths teacher. (respect)
2 With some phrasal verbs, these parts can be separated by the object of the verb.I called up my friend as soon as Jheard the news. OR
I called my friend up as soon as I heard the news.
However, when the object is a pronoun, it must come between the two parts.Jcalled him up. (NOT Ice/led Of' Pi,",.)
3 In other phrasal verbs. these parts can never be separated.J take after my mother. (NOT! ",,Ice FP.;' ",elher efte.. )
4 Three part phrasal verbs cannot be split.I've made up with my girlfriend,
5 To find out if a phrasal verb can be split or not. look in a dictionary:If it can be split. it will be listed: call sb up
If it can't be split. it will be listed: take after sb
6 Some phrasal verbs have more than one meaning.
