ACTIVITY # 3: Review Language in Use PURPOSE: • To review the use of time clauses. INSTRUCTIONS: • Work in pairs. • Read and listen carefully the explanation about Time Clauses. • Discuss the examples presented on the next slide.
ACTIVITY # 3: Reviewing Language in use: TIME CLAUSES • Phrases that begin with words such as: while, when, whenever, before, after, as soon as, until, since, etc. are classified as TIME CLAUSES. Time clauses are a type of dependant (subordinate) clause and are usually paired with a main (independent) clause to form a complete sentence. • For example, consider this sentence: “While I was eating lunch, the fire alarm rang.” In this case, the time clause, “while I was eating my lunch,” lets us know when themain clause, “the fire alarm rang,” occurred. • Look at the examples of time clauses in next slide. Notice that when a time clause appears at the beginning of a sentence, it is separated from the main clause by a comma. Whenthe sentence begins with the main clause, no comma is needed.
ACTIVITY # 3: EXAMPLES OF TIME AND MAIN CLAUSES MAIN CLAUSE TIME CLAUSE • The phone rang while we were talking. • I ate dinner after watching TV. • She hasn't stopped swimming since she got in the pool.

ACTIVITY # 6: DIALOGUE Listen to and read the following conversation. Look upany new words in a dictionary. A: Hello?B: Hi, may I speak with Tim Grazer? A: This is he.B: Hi, my name is Carlos. I got your number from Sandy Grazer. A: Ah, what can I do for you?B:If you’re not busy, I wanted to ask you a few questions about your work and how you got started as aprofessional writer. A: Well, I can tell you that I didn’t start off as a columnist. Iwas still in school studying literature when I took a part time job at what was then called The Richmond Gazette. That paper doesn’t exist anymore, but at the time, they hired me to write the police report section. I say “write” but all I did was summarize the major crimes that the police reported. I got my first break during the elections in ‘72. They were short staffed and asked me if I’d go out and cover the state elections. I’d say that that is when I actually started writing. You know, I think that it’s a lot harder now to get into the business than it used to be. B: Why is that? A: Well, there are a lot of good, young writers out there, and a lot of them are looking for work. You know that summer in ´72 when they first sent me out, I didn’t have any real experience. These days, when they hire writers, most of them have been published in their college newspapers or written a blog. Back then people like me could get lucky and start from zero.
