CHAPTER 1
A. Some/any
The words some and any are used when the speaker cannot specify or does not need/want to
specify a number or an exact amount. Compare the following sentences:
- I saw seven deer when riding my bike in the forest yesterday. (It is important that you know
how many deer I saw.)
- I saw some deer when riding my bike in the forest yesterday. (I don't know exactly how many
deer I saw. Or: It is not important that you know exactly how many deer I saw.)
Look! There are some large black birds on the roof of the church.
1
Did you catch any fish?
In fact, the use of some/any is a little more complicated. Following are two common occasions
when the above "rules" are "broken":
2. We use any in positive sentences when we mean it doesn't matter which ..:
B. Much vs Many
Much and many they can be a bit confusing. Many people would use them properly, but most
likely based on intuitive judgment. Yet, there are definite rules on how to use the words
correctly.
Both much and many are determiners, and have the same or similar definition. They mean a
lot of, or in great quantities, or a great amount. They may mean the same, but their usage
differs.
These are the rules regarding the usage of much and many in the English language:
If a noun is an uncountable noun (which is often in singular form), the much determiner should
be used.
2
Examples:
On the other hand, the determiner many should be used with countable nouns, or plural nouns.
Examples:
In affirmative sentences, much is not usually used. A lot of, or lots of, is usually preferred.
Examples:
When much is preceded by so, too, or as, it can be comfortably used in affirmative
sentences.
Examples:
However, many can be used in affirmative sentences extensively. It can be substituted with a
lot of, or lots of, as well.
Examples:
There are many things that we can do with this. (lots of things is also correct)
Many animals are migrating south in this time of year. (lots of animals is also correct)
Summary:
1. Much should be appropriately used with uncountable nouns, while Many should be
used with countable nouns.
2. Much is most likely used with singular nouns, while Many is used with plurals.
3
3. Much is awkward in affirmative sentences, if not preceded by so, too, or as,
while Many can be used extensively in affirmative sentences.
A lot
The words a lot must be written as two words. The phrase has the same meaning as
both many and much and can be interchanged with either one.
A lot is followed by of when the meaning is general or by of the when the meaning is specific:
Example Meaning
Sometimes, a lot can also end a sentence, but it is considered an informal expression:
We laughed a lot.
The budget for the universities in the state of Minnesota has grown a lot.
4
A Few
A few and a few of the focus on the number of students, implying that some students did
something (positive meaning). Few and few of the focus on the low percentage of students who did
something (negative meaning).
POSITIVE MEANING
NEGATIVE MEANING

CHAPTER 2
A. Article
2) when the listener does not know which particular person or thing we mean.
Please give me a pen, Mary.
o a boy
o a one-way road
o a European
o a uniform
o an egg

o an MTR train
a) to refer to a noun that has been mentioned before or that is known to both the
speaker and the listener.
He has a dog and a cat. The dog is friendly, but the cat is not.
The man you met just now is my uncle.

The second chapter is very interesting.

CHAPTER 3
Use the simple present tense to make a generalization, to present a state of being, or to
indicate a habitual or repeated action.
a. Active
base form or -s/-es form
example :
b. Passive
example :
a. Active
am/is/are + -ing
example :
8
b. Passive
Use the present perfect to describe an action occurring in the past but relevant to the
present, or extending to the present.
a. Active
has/have + -ed/-en
example :
b. Passive
The language institute has been opened to relocate students off the main campus.
E.S.L. courses have been offered since the beginning of Open Admissions

Chapter 4
A. Active and Passive sentence in Past Simple
Use the simple past to indicate a general or habitual action occurring in the past or
at a specific time in the past.
a. Active
base + -ed or irregular form
example :
Our family bought all our clothes at Sears when I was young.
On my fifteenth birthday, my uncle gave me one hundred dollars
When I was in high school, my friends and I drove to the mall on weekends.
b. Passive
was/were + -ed/-en
example :
The clothes were bought by my mother
The money was given to me to buy new clothes
We were always driven to the mall by my friend's older brother.
In informal conversation, speakers of English often express habitual behavior in the past
using the modal would.
a. Active
would + base
example :
b. Passive
would + be + -ed/-en
example :
o Most of the french fries would be eaten before we got to the table.
10
B. Active and Passive sentence in Past Continous
Use the past progressive to indicate an ongoing action in the past or an action
continuing through a specific past time.
a. Active
was/were + -ing
example :
o Mary and Paul were dating in those days
a. Passive
was/were + being + -ed/-en
example :
One afternoon, Mary was being kissed by Paul when her mother passed by.
Use the past perfect to indicate an action completed prior to a particular time or before
another action in the past.
a. Active
had + -ed/-en
example :
Mary's mother was shocked because she had forbidden her daughter to date
b. Passive
example :

Chapter 5
A. Indefinite Pronoun (some-, any-, no-)
As the name suggests indefinite pronouns are pronouns that are not definite in
meaning. In other words they are not specific in which noun they replace. They may be singular
or plural, and must match the verb in number.
There are two categories of indefinite pronouns. The first category includes pronouns
that refer to a nonspecific noun. These pronouns are:
Indefinite pronouns with some and any are used to describe indefinite and incomplete
quantities in the same way that some and any are used alone.
Indefinite pronouns are placed in the same location as a noun would go in the
sentence.
I would like to go to Paris this summer. I would like to go somewhere this summer.
I won't tell your secret to Sam. I won't tell your secret to anyone.
12
Noun Indefinite pronoun
B. Reflexive Pronoun
A reflexive pronoun is a type of pronoun that is preceded by the adverb, adjective, pronoun, or
noun to which it refers, so long as that antecedent is located within the same clause.
In English grammar, a reflexive pronoun indicates that the person who is realizing the action of
the verb is also the recipient of the action. While this might seem strange at first glance, the
following examples of reflexive pronouns and the accompanying list of reflexive pronouns will
help you gain thorough understanding. In fact, you will probably notice that you yourself use
reflexive pronouns frequently when speaking or writing.
as a direct object when the object is the same as the subject of the verb:
We can use a reflexive pronoun as direct object with most transitive verbs, but these are the most
common:
Some verbs change their meaning slightly when they have a reflexive pronoun as direct object:
13
Would you like to help yourself to another drink?
= Would you like to take another drink.
We do not use a reflexive pronoun after verbs which describe things people usually do for
themselves, such as wash, shave, dress:
as indirect object when the indirect object is the same as the subject of the verb:
as the object of a preposition when the object refers to the subject of the clause:
14
Warning
We often put the reflexive pronoun at the end of the clause when we are using it for emphasis:
15
Chapter 6
A. Have Something Done
We use have + object + -ed form when we talk about someone doing something for us which
we ask or instruct them to do. It emphasises the process/action rather than who performs it:
Were having the house painted next week. (We are not going to paint the house ourselves.
Someone else will paint it. The emphasis is on the fact that the house is being painted rather
than who is doing it.)
Warning:
This pattern is not the same as the present perfect or past perfect.
Compare
We can also use have + object + -ed form when something bad happens, especially when
someone is affected by an action which they did not cause:
Theyve had their car stolen. (They are affected by the action of the car being stolen but
they did not cause this to happen.)
Hundreds of people had their homes destroyed by the hurricane. (Hundreds of people were
affected by the hurricane, which they did not cause.)
Asking or instructing
We use the pattern have + object + infinitive without to when we talk about instructing
someone (underlined) to do something. We use it to emphasise who performed the action:
Ill have Harry book you a taxi. (I will instruct Harry to book a taxi for you. Emphasis is on
who will do the action more than on the action.)
16
He had Kay make us all some tea.
We use have + object + -ing form or infinitive without to to talk about an event or experience.
We use the -ing form for an event in progress and the infinitive without to for a completed
event:
We can also use the -ing form to describe an ongoing action that someone or something is
causing:
Her story had us laughing so much. (Her story was making us laugh.)
I just had them doing stretch routines, and after, they got really good at it.
B. Causative Have
We use a causative verb when we want to talk about something that someone else did for us or
for another person. It means that the subject caused the action to happen, but didn't do it
themselves. Maybe they paid, or asked, or persuaded the other person to do it. For example, we
can say:
In a sense, using a causative verb is similar to using a passive. The important thing is that the
house is now clean. We don't focus on who did the cleaning.
17
We usually use 'have something done' when we are talking about paying someone to do
something for us. It's often used for services. The form is 'subject + have + object + past
participle'.
18
Chapter 7
Determiner: both, all, each, every, few, little
1. We use both and both the in exactly the same way to refer to two particular people or things
(plural countable nouns):
All the children in our street like to play (=all the+ plural countable nouns)
All the advice you gave me was useless (=all the+ uncountable noun)
The girls are both ready (=Both girls/Both the girls are ready)
The girls are all ready (=All the girls are ready)
2. After auxiliaries or the first auxiliary when there is more than one:
The boys can both speak French (=Both boys/Both the boys can speak French)
The committee should all have resigned (=All the committee should have
resigned)
The girls both left early (=Both girls/Both the girls left early)
The girls all left early (=All the girls left early)
19
b. Basic uses of each and every
1. We often use Each and every to refer to two people or things. When referring to more than to
we can use both each and every. Each suggests one by one , separately; every suggests all
together:
3. We cannot use of after every and we cannot use every at the end of a sentence:
We use few and a few with plural countable nouns: a few friends, few friends.
We use little and a little with uncountable nouns: a little time, little time.
Compare :
I ve got a little money (=some, but not much)
I ve got little money(= nearly no)
Ive got a few friends (=some, but not many)
Ive got few friends (=nearly no)

Chapter 8
A. Question tag
Question tags are the short questions that we put on the end of sentences particularly in spoken
English. There are lots of different question tags but the rules are not difficult to learn.
Positive/negative
If the main part of the sentence is positive, the question tag is negative .
... and if the main part of the sentence is negative, the question tag is positive.
The question tag uses the same verb as the main part of the sentence. If this is an auxiliary verb
(have, be) then the question tag is made with the auxiliary verb.
If the main part of the sentence doesnt have an auxiliary verb, the question tag uses an
appropriate form of do.
21
With modal verbs
If there is a modal verb in the main part of the sentence the question tag uses the same modal
verb.
With I am
Be careful with question tags with sentences that start I am. The question tag for I am is
arent I?
Intonation
Question tags can either be real questions where you want to know the answer or simply asking
for agreement when we already know the answer.
If the question tag is a real question we use rising intonation. Our tone of voice rises.
If we already know the answer we use falling intonation. Our tone of voice falls.
22
CHAPTER 9
A. So and Such
SO and SUCH often have the same meaning : 'very' or 'to this degree'.
so big
so carefully
Such is used without a, an before plural nouns, mass nouns (luggage, furniture)
and abstract nouns (advice, courage, generosity, kindness ... )
such fools
such generosity
23
The story was so complicated.
So ... that and such ... that are used to describe reasons and results.
So + adjective + that :
The hotel was so comfortable that we decided to stay another night.
b. Third Conditional
The first conditional and second conditionals talk about the future. With the third
conditional we talk about the past. We talk about a condition in the past that did not happen.
That is why there is no possibility for this condition. The third conditional is also like a dream,
but with no possibility of the dream coming true.
Last week you bought a lottery ticket. But you did not win.
if condition result
Notice that we are thinking about an impossible past condition. You did not win the lottery. So
the condition was not true, and that particular condition can never be true because it is finished.
We use the Past Perfect tense to talk about the impossible past condition. We use would have +
24
past participle to talk about the impossible past result. The important thing about the third
conditional is that both the condition and result are impossible now.
if condition result
If they had not passed their exam, their teacher would have been sad.
result if condition
Their teacher would have been sad if they had not passed their exam.
25
result if condition
