  1. Lesson 8 Teacher:Angelo Freire

  2. Warm-Up • Work in pairs and answer the questions • Student A: Is there a lamp in yourbedroom? • Student B: Is there a desk in yourbedroom? • Student A: Howmanychairs are there in the living room? • Student B: Howmanyrooms are there in yourcondo? • Student A: Are theremany shops in yourneighborhood? • Student B: Are theremanyrestaurants in yourneighborhood? • Student A: Is there a banknearhere? • Student B: Is therean ATM nearhere?

  3. Let’s Review • QUANTIFIERS • Much, many, a lot of

  4. In the interrogative forms we use: • much with uncountable nouns: (SINGULAR) • money, bread, water... • Example: How much money/bread/water...is there? • many with countable nouns (PLURAL): students, desks, windows... • Example: How many students/teachers/desks... are there?

  5. In the negative forms we use: • much with uncountable nouns: (SINGULAR) • money, bread, water... • Example: I haven't got much money/bread/water... • many with countable nouns (PLURAL): students, desks, windows... • There aren't many students/teachers/desks...

  6. Cultural Note • In the United Kingdom and former British colonies, it’s more common to say: • Have you got a pineapple? • Yes, I have. / No, I haven’t. • HAVE here is an auxiliary verb. • In the US, however, people prefer • Do you have a pineapple?Yes, I do. / No, I don’t. • DO here is an auxiliary verb. • Remember: HAVE GOT = HAVE = POSSESS

  7. So, • If you are on a UK street corner, say • Have you got a pineapple? • If you are on a US street corner, say • Do you have a pineapple? • But never say • Have you a pineapple?

  8. In the affirmative forms: • In spoken English and informal writing we tend to use: • A LOT, A LOT OF, LOTS OF with countable and uncountable nouns. • Examples: • How many students are there in the classroom? • There are a lot. • How many students are there in the classroom? • There are a lot of / lots of students

  9. In formal written English: It is also possible (and preferable) to use MUCH and MANY rather than A LOT OF, LOTS OF and A LOT in formal written English. Examples: There are many students. Much time was spent on studying.

  10. So if you're speaking or writing to friends (informal), use a lot, a lot of, lots of. But if you want to be more formal, perhaps it is preferable to use much and many.

  11. REMEMBER! In affirmative sentences with SO, AS or TOO, we also use MACH / MANY. Examples: Carla has so many friends. She has as many friends as Sue. Kevin has too much money.

  12. Let’s Practice • Listen to a conversation in a fruit shop • Listen again. As you listen, try to write it down in a piece of paper

  13. Now watch the video and check your work
