ВведениеЯзык является важнейшим средством общения, без которого

невозможно существование и развитие человеческого общества. Происходящие сегодня изменения в общественных отношениях, средствах коммуникации (использование новых информационных технологий) требуют повышения коммуникативной компетенции учащихся, совершенствования их филологической подготовки. Все это повышает статус предмета «Иностранный язык» как общеобразовательной учебной дисциплины. Основное назначение иностранного языка состоит в формировании коммуникативной компетенции, т.е. способности и готовности осуществлять иноязычное межличностное и межкультурное общение с носителями языка.

Иностранный язык расширяет лингвистический кругозор обучающихся, содействует их общему речевому развитию, способствует формированию культуры общения.

Целью настоящего пособия является выработка умений распознавать и понимать грамматические формы и конструкции и обеспечение практики употребления сложных грамматических явлений в различных контекстах.

Пособие содержит комплекс грамматических упражнений, предваряемый основными теоретическими положениями, знание которых необходимо для успешного выполнения предлагаемых заданий. Грамматический материал, включенный в настоящее пособие, представляет значительные трудности для изучающих английский язык, поскольку между глагольными системами в английском и русском языках существуют очень большие различия. Задания включают тренировочные, языковые, условно-речевые и речевые упражнения, целью которых являются многократное тренировка изучаемого грамматического явления в наиболее типичных контекстах его употребления. Некоторые условно-речевые упражнения носят характер высказывания по моделям, состоящим из стимула-вопроса или высказывания и слова-подсказки или сочетания слов. Лексической базой всех упражнений является нейтрально-бытовая высокочастотная лексика.

Структурно пособие построено в порядке нарастания трудностей: от ознакомительных упражнений, в которых даны типичные модели употребления изучаемых форм, до перевода с русского на английский язык. Каждый раздел содержит комплекс обзорных упражнений, направленных на закрепление материала.

Методические указания включают такие темы, как имя существительное и система простых и длительных глагольных времен действительного залога.

Методические указания предназначены для организации как аудиторных занятий, так и внеаудиторной самостоятельной деятельности студентов I-III курсов всех специальностей и соответствуют рабочей программе и ФГОС 3+ СПО.

3) Завершенные времена (Perfect Tenses)

Present Perfect TensePresent Perfect Tense – настоящее завершенное время связывает прошлое с настоящим. Оно употребляется для обозначения завершившегося действия, которое имеет результат в настоящем; действия, которое началось в прошлом и все еще продолжается; действия, которое завершилось в не закончившийся еще отрезок времени; действия, которое завершилось до настоящего момента и не важно, когда конкретно (если бы указывалось конкретное время, мы должны были бы использовать Past Simple). Также Present Perfect используют для выражения опыта, который мы когда-то приобрели в жизни, то есть того, что действие было совершено в прошлом и уже закончено, но эффект от него остался. Опять же, неважно, когда это действие было совершено, время не конкретизируется, иначе надо применять Past Simple.

Настоящее завершенное время – одно из самых сложных для понимания, поскольку в русском языке нет похожих времен. Следующая схема помогает наглядно показать суть этого времени.

Present Perfect Tense

В таблице ниже показано общее правило, как поставить глагол в настоящее завершенное время на примере глагола to work (работать).

Утвердительные предложения

Отрицательные предложения

Вопросительные предложения

I have worked I have not worked Have I worked?He has worked He has not worked Has he worked?She has worked She has not worked Has she worked?It has worked It has not worked Has it worked?

We have worked We have not worked Have we worked?You have worked You have not worked Have you worked?They have worked They have not worked Have they worked?

5

Как видно из таблицы, для построения Present Perfect Tense требуется вспомогательный глагол have (has) и III форма основного глагола (правильные – с окончанием –ed, неправильные – по таблице).

Различие между Have gone (to ) и Have been (to)

Сравните:

Hello, Mrs Kerns. Can I speak to Mary, please? – She isn’t here. She’s gone to the shops.

Where have you been? – I’ve been to the shops.

They have gone to the cinema. (This means that they haven’t come back yet. They are still at the cinema.)

She has been to London. (This means that she has visited London; she is not there now. She has come back.)

Слова-маячки (сигнальные слова)

Показателями настоящего простого времени, подсказками, которые как маячки указывают на Present Simple, служат следующие слова:

just – только чтоalready – ужеyet – еще, ужеever/never – когда-либо, никогдаIt’s the first time... – это первый раз, когда…since – с (какого-то времени)for – в течениеhow long – как долго, как давно, сколькоrecently, lately – недавноthis year, this week, this morning, this evening, this term, today – в этом году, на этой неделе, этим утром, этим вечером, в этом семестре, сегодня

(be) at school?” “No, I 11. (leave) school many years ago and I 12. (forget) all about it,” was the answer. To this the philosopher answered that he 13. (be) really sorry for the man, and he 14. (think) that boatman 15. (lose) a second quarter of his life. Some minutes passed and the passenger again 16. (wonder) if the man ever 17. (hear) about Algebra. And the man 18. (have to) admit that he never 19. (know) anything about it. “In that case you certainly 20. (lose) a third quarter of your life!” said the scientist. At that very moment the boat 21. (strike) on a stone. The boatman jumped and 22. (cry): “You ever 23. (learn) 24. (swim)?” “No,” was the answer. The boatman explained sadly to the philosopher that he 25. (be) sure the scientist 26. (lose) his whole life as the boat 27. (sink).

Past Perfect Tense

Past Perfect Tense – прошедшее завершенное время обозначает действия, которые начались и закончились до определенного момента в прошлом. Момент может быть обозначен временем, другим действием или ситуацией. Т. е., оно употребляется для описания действий, которые происходили еще раньше прошедшего, поэтому его иногда также называют предпрошедшее время.

Past Perfect Tense

В таблице ниже показано общее правило, как поставить глагол в прошедшее завершенное время на примере глагола to work (работать).




I had worked I had not worked Had I worked?He had worked He had not worked Had he worked?She had worked She had not worked Had she worked?It had worked It had not worked Had it worked?

We had worked We had not worked Had we worked?You had worked You had not worked Had you worked?They had worked They had not worked Had they worked?

Форма глагола с окончанием -ed – это, в данном времени, третья форма глагола. У неправильных глаголов нужно использовать третью форму по таблице.

Правописание окончаний

К глаголам, которые оканчиваются на –e добавляется только -d. Если глагол заканчивается на согласный +y, тогда y заменяется на i и добавляется -ed, а если глагол заканчивается на гласный +y, тогда просто добавляется -ed. У глаголов, которые оканчиваются на -l или краткий гласный между согласными последняя буква удваивается и добавляется -ed.

Например: like – liked, study – studied, play – played, stop – stopped, travel – travelled


Показателями прошедшего простого времени, подсказками, которые как маячки указывают на Past Simple, служат следующие слова:just – только что, already – уже, never – никогда, yet – еще, уже.by 3 o’clock/by Monday/by that time – к 3 часам/к понедельнику/к тому времени

Catch me if you canFrank Abagnale was a brilliant conman for five years. Amazingly, he started at 16. Steven Spielberg made the film Catch me if you can about him, starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Hanks.In 1964, Frank ran away to New York, upset because his parents had divorced. He was tall and handsome, so he decided to pretend he was 26 to get a job. His first con trick was to forge bank cheques. When the bank found out, he had already collected $40 000. He had to change his identity, so he became Frank Williams, a Pan Am Airways pilot. He conned Pan Am into giving him pilot’s uniform, and he faked an ID card. For two years he travelled round the world for free with paid hotel expenses! But after he told his secret to his flight attendant girlfriend, she called the police, and he had to disappear again.Next he became a lawyer. He forged a Harvard law degree, and then studied to pass the bar exam! He was also a hospital doctor (he left when he actually had to treat someone), and a university professor. He taught Sociology and apparently, his classes were very popular. Each time he had to move on before the police caught up with him. He was eventually arrested in France in 1969 and sent to prison for five years. Since then, he has worked as a financial consultant!

Future Perfect Continuous Tense

Future Perfect Continuous Tense – будущее завершенное длительное время используется для выражения длительного действия, которое начнется в будущем и продлится до наступления другого действия или момента, указанного обстоятельством. Эта временная форма очень редко употребляется на практике, вы не встретите ее в устной речи, разве что в публицистическом стиле, но не часто. В любом случае, вы должны иметь представление об этой временной форме. В этом времени, как и в других завершенных длительных, сочетаются два аспекта – завершенность и длительность одновременно.

Например: By the end of this month, I’ ll have been running my own company for ten years. – К концу этого года, я буду управлять своей компанией уже десять лет.

Future Perfect Continuous Tense

В таблице ниже показано общее правило, как поставить глагол в будущее завершенное длительное время на примере глагола to work (работать).




I will have been working I won’t have been working Will I have been working?He will have been working He won’t have been working Will he have been working?She will have been working She won’t have been working Will she have been working?It will have been working It won’t have been working Will it have been working?

We will have been working We won’t have been working Will we have been working?You will have been working You won’t have been working Will you have been working?They will have been working They won’t have been working Will they have been working?

Но: 1) не забывайте, что в придаточных предложениях условия и времени после союзов when, by the time и т.д., нельзя употреблять будущее время, следует заменять его на Present Simple;2) кроме того, глаголы недлительной группы не могут использоваться во Future Perfect Continuous Tense, как и в других временах группы Continuous. Вместо Future Perfect Continuous с такими глаголами нужно использовать Future Perfect.


Показателями прошедшего длительного времени, подсказками, которые как маячки указывают на Past Perfect Continuous, служат следующие слова:

for — в течение (for a month, for a long time, for an hour), before – до, перед, by – к (какому-либо моменту времени)

Глава III. Имя прилагательное.

Степени сравнения имен прилагательных

Прилагательные в английском языке не изменяются по числу или падежу, они изменяются только по степеням сравнения.

Иногда мы используем прилагательное просто, как характеристику. Значит, используем положительную степень. Если вы говорите, что некое качество у одного предмета выражено больше, чем у другого, то вам понадобится сравнительная. А в превосходной мы хотим показать, что предмет выступает в роли самого-самого. Давайте рассмотрим примеры.

Положительная степень (positive

degree)

Сравнительная степень (comparative

degree)

Превосходная степень (superlative

degree)

Один слог coldхолодный

colderхолоднее

the coldestсамый холодный

Два слога, заканчивается на y

sunnyсолнечный

sunnierсолнечнее

the sunniestсамый солнечный

Много слогов dangerous опасный more dangerous the most dangerousИсключения

good - хороший better - лучше the best - самый лучший

bad - плохой worse [wɜːs] - хуже the worst - самый плохой

little - маленький less - меньше the least [liːst] - самый маленький

many, much - много more - больше the most - больше всего

old - старый older - старшеelder - старше кого-либо в своей семье

the oldest - самый старшийeldest - самый старший в семье

Правила правописания

1) Если в конце слова стоит “y”, а перед ней находится согласная, то “y” меняется на “i”: lovely — lovelier — the loveliest

милый — милее — самый милыйНо, если “y” предшествует гласная, то никаких изменений делать не надо, просто добавляется подходящий суффикс.2) Если в конце слова стоит “e”, то при добавлении суффиксов “er” или “est”, сохраняется только одна “e”: simple — simpler — the simplest

простой — проще — самый простой62

http://wiki.dieg.info/question_word#how_much_many

3) Если слово заканчивается на согласную, а ей предшествует одна краткая гласная, то есть имеет ударный краткий слог, то мы удваиваем последнюю букву: hot — hotter — the hottest

горячий — горячее — самый горячийНо: Это правило касается только качественных прилагательных. Относительные прилагательные степеней сравнения не имеют. К относительным прилагательным относятся такие, как blind – слепой, excellent – отличный, huge - огромный, impossible – невозможный, terrible – ужасный, unknown – неизвестный, wrong – неправильный, domestic – домашний, iron – железный, space – космический и многие другие.

Сравнительные конструкции

1) Правило чем … тем… (the … the …) Можно использовать the … the … с двумя сравнительными прилагательными для того чтобы показать зависимость одного от другого. Например:

The warmer the weather, the better I feel. - Чем теплее погода, тем лучше я себя чувствую.

The harder he works, the more money he get. - Чем больше он работает, тем больше денег он получает.

2) Правило так же… как … (или такой же … как …) as … as …. Между as и as используется только прилагательное без сравнительной или превосходной степени. Например:

I'm coming as fast as I can. - Я иду, так быстро, как только я могу. The guitar was nearly as big as me. - Гитара была такой большой как я. Petrol is twice as expensive as it was a few years ago. - Бензин в два раза

дороже, чем это было несколько лет назад.Можно употреблять not so … as вместо not as … as в отрицательных предложениях: Henry isn't so rich as Joe.
