Exam practice for Module VI

 Passive voice is used when the focus is on the action. It is not important or not known, however, who or what is performing the action.

Example

If I say: My phone was stolen I focus on the fact that it was stolen. I don't know who did it.


Some times sounds more polite to say: A mistake was made, than to blame someone specifically.

We also use passive voice when we don't want to acknowledge any personal responsibility.

Following you will find some practice on passive voice for the upcoming exams:

Please remember that the exams for 2nd and 3rd  abcd will be on March 15th and the exam for 2nd and 3rd efg will be on March 16th.

Go : here, here, here, here, here and here to practice.

Module V -- Leisure.

Leisure Activities

 Now with the upcoming exams and projects to turn in, the word leisure has a special meaning for us.
Leisure is the time we have for ourselves, free from school and obligations.

We all embark on different activities in our leisure time. Whether it is playing sport, reading, or doing social activities like hanging out with friends or visiting relatives, our leisure time holds so many opportunities that can benefit us in the short and long term, but it is how we use this leisure time that is important and what to fulfill it with, so we can experience and feel these benefits.

 The exam dates are: Thursday, Feb. 16th for second ABCD,  and third ABCD,  and Friday Feb. 17th for second EFG, and third EFG.

Exam practice for Module IV

When we think about the future,  we mix in our heads popular science and popular culture, and can either imagine a perfect world or an apocalyptic one,  but although it is true that our circumstances can create us,  it is also true that there are many things that we do to create our own circumstances. If we make smart choices now, the  future will look much more promising.

Let’s think about the future like a highway which will take us to our final destination.

In this module we have studied ways to talk about the future. Go to the followings links to practice some future forms as well as the conditional sentences type zero,1 and 2.
