  21. Focus on WritingThe Sentence..p. 13 • Look at the top of page 13 of your textbook..let’s analyze items a, b, c and d… • Abdullah worked for a big camera company for years. • My friend in Boston. • He’s tired. • Teaches mathematics to students at a good college in Massachusetts. • which ones are sentences? • Which are NOT sentences? How do you know??

  22. Focus on WritingThe Sentence..p. 13 Every sentence in English has a subject and a verb. e.g. He works. They play. subject verb subject verb A sentence may have only a subject and a verb, but usually, there are other words in the sentence. e.g. - He works for an employment agency / at the camera shop. - They play basketball at the club every Saturday.

  23. Focus on WritingThe Sentence..p. 13 The Subject • The subject is the person or thing the sentence is 'about'. Often (but not always) it will be the first part of the sentence. The subject will usually be a noun or a noun phrase (a noun and the words, such as adjectives, that modify it) followed by a verb. - He works for an employment agency / at the camera shop. - They play basketball at the club every Saturday.

  24. Focus on WritingThe Sentence..p. 13 • In commands, we do not say or write the subject but the subject of the sentence will be always understood as “YOU” e.g. Answer the want ads. = “YOU” answer the want ads. • Subjects come before the verb and often come at the beginning of the sentence: e.g. Saeed told me it was a great job. subject verb

  25. Focus on WritingThe Sentence..p. 13 Subjects can be one word or many words.. e.g. Saeed and Jacktold me it was a great job. subject verb They told me it was a great job. subject verb

  26. Focus on WritingThe Sentence..p. 13 Subjectscannotbe repeated… We cannot say for example: Saeedhe told me it was a great job. In this case, we will have a subject and a pronoun referring to the same subject for one verb. This is not correct. This is different from saying for instance: Saeed and Ahmed told me it was a great job. In this case, we have two different people/doers performing the same verb. This is OK…

  27. Focus on WritingThe Sentence..p. 13 Punctuation Rules: The first letter of any sentence has to be CAPITALIZED. The sentence has to end with a full stop/period {.}; a question mark {?}; or an exclamation mark {!} in order to mark that the sentence has finished. Now it is time to go to page 14 to do exercise 2 with your teacher and friends.. ..good luck..

  30. Focus on WritingPossessive Adjectives..p. 16 A possessive adjective is usually used to describe a noun, and it comes before it, like other adjectives: Possessive Adjectives:My, your, his, her, its, our, their… When we use a possessive adjective, we do not use the articles a, an or the.. e. g.
