Knowledge

- Ask Ss to match the words or phrases with their meanings.

- Ask Ss to pay attention to the context in which the words or phrases in 1 can be used. When using a verb or a noun, Ss need to consider its suitable form (tense of verbs; singular or plural form of nouns).

- contracted forms in casual speech. Ask Ss to find the shortened forms of verbs and negative words (‘not’) and write their full forms in the space provided.

- Ask Ss to listen and underline the contractions or the full forms in the exchanges. Explain some of the rules for contracted forms. Check answers as a class.

Notes

a. Noun / pronoun, etc. + verbs

- The short form ' s(=is/has) can be used after

nouns, pronouns, question words, here and there. The short forms' d (= had/would), ' ll and ' re are usually used after pronouns, some question words, short nouns, and there.

- Full forms are used at the end of a clause

(e.g. Yes, he is.) or when the speaker wants to emphasise some information, hence the primary stress on the full form (e.g. He HAS done it, not WILL do it.).

b. Verbs + not

- There are two possible contractions for negative expressions, e.g. She' s not... /She isn' t...

Negative contractions can be used at the end of a clause, e.g. No, they haven' t

Play the recording for Ss to repeat chorally and individually

Explain to Ss that linking verbs are used to describe or identify the subjects of the verbs. An adjective or a noun can follow a linking verb, but the focus of the lesson is on the use of linking verbs with adjectives.

• First, have Ss choose a suitable verb for each sentence from the word box, and then ask them to use the correct form of the verb to complete the sentence.

Ask Ss to read the sentences carefully and identify the linking verbs.

• Explain to them that some verbs (appear, look, taste, smell, sound, and feel) can refer to an action (= action verbs) and be followed by an adverb.

Explain to Ss that cleft structures are used to
emphasise a particular part of a sentence.

It is... is used when the main verb is in the present tense, and It was... is used when the main verb is in the past tense.

• Ask Ss to put the underlined part (= the focus) in each sentence after It is/was...

Have Ss practise asking and answering the

questions in pairs. Tell them not to emphasise any of the words in the questions. Encourage them to stress the words in focus in the answers
