We can use the past perfect tense (had + past participle) to do this. Look at these two sentences © Tariq Ibn Zyad crossed the Straits of Gibraltar. © Tariq Ibn Zyad delivered his famous speech. Both actions happened in the past so we use the past simple tense. But look at how we can combine the sentences. > After Tariq Ibn Zyad had crossed the Straits of Gibraltar, he delivered his famous speech. Note: We use the past perfect (had crossed) because the action happened before another action in the past (he delivered) (Rule: Subject + had + past pari ple of the verb] ‘ime markers: > Use after, as soon as, until before using the past perfect simple. Ex: - After she had moved out, I found her notes. - I didn’t say anything until she had finished talking. > Use before, when before the past simple: Ex. - Before I knew it, she had run out the door. When he phoned her, she had found someone new. Exercise: Put the verbs in brackets in the correct tense. . They (study) English before they (move) to Canada. They (drink) tea after they (finish) dinner. Afier he (work) at the hospital for two years he (decide) to give up the job. . When I (arrive) at the party John already (go) home. . We (wait) until the match (finish). wpene D. Expressing Concession 1) Although, even though: Study these examples: “He had enough money." " He refused to buy a new car." The above two statements can be combined as follows : Although he had enough money, he refused to buy a new car. (Even though) Or He refused to buy a new car although he had enough money. (even though) Structure: "Although", and "even though" introduce concessive clauses. Although /even though subject + verb Examples: ‘Although it was raining, he walked to the station. Even though she is very old, she runs fast. 2) Despite / in spite of: Despite and in spite of do not introduce a concessive clause. They are rather followed by a noun or a verb + ing form. Study this example: "He had enough money.""He refused to buy a new car." Despite all his money ,he refused to buy a new car. In spite of having enough money, he refused to buy a new car. Or He refused to buy a new car despite all his money. in spite of having enough money. Structure: [Despite+ a noun/ In spite of+ verb + ins Examples: Despite /in spite of the rain, he walked to the station. Despite /in spite of being tired, he walked to the station.

Example: Tomorrow is Sunday, so I don't have to wake up early (I can wake up early if] want, but it's not necessary) B- Giving Advice > “Should/Shouldn't” are used to suggest something, to express our opinion, our point of view. When we use should or shouldn't, we are saying that we think something is a good or a bad idea. Examples: a- I think you should go to the doctor (I think it is a good idea, that's my opinion) b- You shouldn't drink so much (I think it is not a good idea, that's my opinion) Exercise: Put in must/ mustn't’ , should/shouldn’t ‘don't / doesn't have to 1) We have a lot of work tomorrow.

For example: ~"My daughter really wants a dog for Christmas." This refers to any dog. We don't know which dog because we haven't found the dog yet. Remember, using a or an depends on the sound that begins the next word. So... a+ singular noun beginning with a consonant: a boy; a car; a bike; a z00; a dog an + singular noun beginning with a vowel: an elephant; an egg: an apple; an idiot:an orphan -"A/an" can be used only with count nouns, "Tneed a bottle of water.” "Ineed a new glass of milk." Remember that in English, the indefinite articles are used to indicate membership in a group: Tam a teacher. (Iam a member of a large group known as teachers.) Brian is an Irishman, (Brian is a member of the people known as Irish.) Definite Article: the The definite article is used before singular and plural nouns when the noun is specific or particular. The signals that the noun is definite, that it refers to a particular member of a group. For example: - "The dog that bit me ran away." Here, we're talking about a specific dog, the dog that bit me. ="|_ was happy to see the policeman who saved my cat!" Here, we're talking about a particular policeman. Even if we don't know the policeman's name, it's still a particular policeman because it is the one who saved the cat.

And the least I can say is that I feel quite happy and comfortable in it. First, let me mention its old stone building, surrounded by a nice flower garden. The flowers are carefully arranged, and in spring, they give off a nice scent when we head for the classes through the garden, Further back, there are two large courtyards with enough space and benches to play or relax. There are also big, ancient olive trees near the walls, where birds perch and nest. We can hear them warble and chirp all year round. Let me also describe my classroom. It is large and well decorated, with old-fashioned brown desks, and posters and pictures all over the walls. And then, there are those cabinets full of books which smell of old paper. Actually, I like borrowing a book from to time and dream of all the adventures and mysteries I read about. T'll finally say a few words about my teachers. I’m lucky to have such good and considerate people around me. They are so keen to see the students do well. They are always prepared to answer our questions, and they really want to make sure we understand the hard parts of the lessons and exercises. I like the way teachers get us involved, They surely have children of their own at school, which explains why they understand how we feel. So if there is one good reason why I like my school, it surely is because the teaching staff are so caring, and so friendly. I can’t dream of a better school! (T 4 : Feelings and Emotions Topic: Write a reply to miserable Dear Miserable, I'm very sorry to hear that you are having difficulty coping with stress and anxiety, due to the forthcoming final examination. I more than sympathise with your being depressed. Let me tell you however that taking a few commonsense steps. would restore confidence and cheerfulness in you. I think you are working too hard, and not taking enough time for breaks. Do you know that cramming and doing exercises endlessly produce more anxiety in you? That’s why you don’t feel you have time to spare for your friends, and to enjoy some of the pleasures of life you are entitled to. So, as I said, you should relax and sleep regularly, meanwhile leaving your brain to process the hardest points of lessons and activities. You should go out for walks or practise some sport everyday to help you relax. You ought not to worry constantly about the time when your exam occurs, lest you would lose your concentration on the appointed day. Think that after all, you have reached a good level of competence, and that you have enough strategies at this stage to decide how to organise your work. Let me tell you again that when the exam comes, always start with the things you can do easily and leave time for the most tricky parts. T’m sure that when the time comes, you will be able to overcome your stress and perform quite successfully I wish you all the best. ‘Aunt Hillary Moreover, it is highly immoral & dishonest to reap what others have sown, ‘That it is highly immoral & dishonest to reap what others have sown, That is to say that instead of creating new objects or at least improving the existing ones, imitation kills creativity & innovations. Furthermore, pirating products is theft, especially when the producer of a fake object sticks the label of famous trade-mark on it. These producers, indeed. bring a very bad reputation to their country through there unethical practices. One wouldn’t like Algerian to be know for practicing this dubious trade or to see them buy cheap, fake products that can lead to serious troubles. To suim up, we can say that counterfeiting. is a kind of fraud that should be fought by authorities & citizens, Topic: Some people argue / think / say that businessmen should apply their own personal ethical Standards when doing business. Some people argue that businessmen should apply their own personal ethics standards when doing business. They think that people start business to make profits & become wealthy. They say that vou need money to make money. According to them, the world business is a jungle & if we respect ethics (values), we can undermine the values of hard work & freedom, & we can also restrict production & competition. But, I don’t agree with these agreements at all. I believe / think that they are only excuses (justifications — reasons to explain) to escape the responsibility towards the welfare of society as a whole (To escape their social & environmental responsibilities) According to me, ethics has everything to do with business. In other words, business is a human activity & should, therefore, comply with moral standards. Some business, for instance, abuse work safety regulations & pollute the environment besides greed that may be caused by unfair / illegal competition & exploitation. Therefore, business activities should have a code of good practice to ensure fairness (legality justice) ‘Topic: - Suppose you were the manager of an ethical investment fund. (a fund which inyests only in socially responsible businesses). Write a policy statement to inform potential fund contributors about it. The people & organizations who put their money into our fund want us to invest in ethical ways & we work hard to make their desires a reality We'll make sure that we avoid investing in companies that endanger the environment & those which invest in certain sectors such as tobacco, arms manufacturing & uranium extraction since they not only spoil the atmosphere (air) with fumes, chemicals & radiation but threaten also the life of the next generation. They can lead to long period of the drought, climate change, disasters & the appearance of dumps everywhere. Thus, we'll do our best & attempt to take all the necessary measures to preserve our nature & secure the future of our children Moreover, we won't place our money in companies that lack ethical behaviour standards, In other terms, we'll respect the legal minimum age for work, ensure good health & safety conditions to the workers as well as fairly payment because we believe that the reputation &prosperity of any business (company) relies on social & environmental responsibilities which go hand in hand with economic growth In brief, let’s say that since ethics are our main capital, our business will take the moral standards into account & we'll no longer separate ethics from business so as to ensure both faimess & profitability growth, Thus, you can trust us. Sa UNIT 1 : Ancient Think, pair and share p 20 ‘A century ago, people were able to live in better conditions than their parents thanks to the progress made in science and technology. But in practice, the outcome of this progress was slow to materialise, For instance, most people still used to travel long distances on foot or by stage coach. And as mechanisation was not introduced significantly in daily activities, household chores still had to be done manually, and were therefore time consuming, On the other hand, community life was still an asset for social cohesion, since people had more opportunities to meet and interact. So they were able to chat with neighbours at shops or in clubs and have a cup of coffee with friends or relatives and tell stories and jokes. Likewise, family visits were frequent and kept the folklore alive, with the grandparents who used to tell traditional tales or sing lullabies or folk songs to their grandchildren. Unfortunately, with the development of audiovisual means such as the cinema, radio, television and then personal appliances like the computer, CD-roms and DVDs, the chances of socialisation are dwindling and the lack of interaction between people may increase stress, loneliness and anxiety. Could we then complain that we are missing out on some ingredients in life which used to make our great grandparents happier? This is probably so, since closer contacts among neighbours, friends and families had to be beneficial for communal harmony. However, scientific progress in all fields, particularly in medicine, modes of transportation and communication, and agribusiness can only show that our lives are today quite fulfilling and, if anything, more comfortable than a century ago. Think, pair, share (p.30) ‘There are three major threats to our civilisation, which can lead to the destruction of mankind. We have first nuclear energy, which has been a constant liability ever since the explosion of atomic bombs in 1945; there is also pollution, a major cause for concern with the massive and noxious increase in industrial activities and mechanisation; finally, climate change constitutes another threat, as an outcome of the first two mentioned problems. The escalation of nuclear weaponry since World War Two has exposed humanity to a nuclear war that would not compare at all with Hiroshima and Nagasaki, since it could wipe out life on earth many times over. The Cold War was a period of tension between the two most heavily equipped nations in terms of nuclear warheads, the USA and the USSR. The Détente that came after did not suppress all worries, since other countries have the bomb, and could use it any time. There are also indirect consequences to owning nuclear energy. Indeed, a lethal form of pollution can originate from it if accidents in nuclear power plants occur. But apparently less dangerous forms of pollution, generated by an ever- increasing industrialisation, can also cause severe illnesses and deaths. We can think of all the chemicals dumped by factories underground, or in rivers and seas, or of the enormous amounts of smoke emitted in the air by factories and vehicles. All of these are causing all sorts of illnesses in humans and threatening wildlife. ‘Apart from these direct consequences, the third threat to our civilisation, climate change, is directly related to the first two mentioned. Smoke has resulted in the greenhouse effect, responsible for the increase in mean temperature in the world. Consequently, the ice caps in the north and south poles are shrinking, the sea level is rising, rains have become irregular, hurricanes are more frequent, monsoons are more destructive, droughts have intensified, and have reached usually wet parts of the world Therefore, the danger of famine is real , and can even lead to dramatic wars over the possession of the meagre resources remaining. Surely the impending threat of nuclear warfare, and the lethal chemicals spread in the environment make the world a dangerous place to live. The tons of smoke sent out in the atmosphere also constitute a health hazard, and are responsible for climate change. There are indeed urgent measures to be taken by governments to make human activities safer if our civilisation is to survive and thrive. Proposed summary of the text (about 10 lines): ‘Ancient Egyptian civilization emerged along the Nile Valley as a result of the unification of all Egyptians under the central authority of one single king, the Pharaoh. The Pharaoh’s government guaranteed both external and internal security to the people of Egypt. As a consequence, the Egyptians grew very proud of their country and became so fond of the Pharaoh that they worshipped him as a God- king. This national pride and identification with the Pharaoh kept the unity of ancient Egypt and made its civilization prosper for many centuries. But the economy of ancient Egypt was ruined by all the resources that the Pharaohs put into the building of pyramids and the burial of their treasures in their own tombs. Economic collapse caused the gradual decline and fall of ancient Egyptian civilization. UNIT 2: Ethics in Business Topic: Prepare & short public statement saying what would you do to fight fraud & corruption if you were elected “ head of state ” Dear fellow citizens, Corruption is an evil that must be fought now! In order to win this fight I urge all people of good will to unite & gather around me. If you elect me Head of State, I will implement the following anti-corruption program. To begin with, 1 would appoint honest civil servants who would work fairly & do their best to serve the country & citizens. They should keep in mind that stealing public funds or accepting a bride in exchange for a service is immoral & illegal practice. ‘Next, I would pass stringent laws to protect citizens & punish embezzling & bride-taking. | mean that I would not accept that citizens will be the victims of corrupt civil servants. I would not forgive embezzlers & bride-takers. I would also fight tax evasion & capital flight. Those who eam a lot of money must pay their taxes & contribute to the prosperity & growth of the country. Thus, tax evader would be severely punished. Finally, I would rehabilitate the value of work if I were elected. we should teach our children from infancy that & little money gained honestly bring a lot of happiness & peace of mind. To sump up, I would tell my fellow countrymen that no government can succeed to fight corruption without the help of civil society/ So you role as citizens in this fight us quite necessary & this is why I urge you again to unite around me to face comuption & fraud, Vote for honesty Topic: Counterfeiting benefits consumers is a mistaken claim. So many people argue that counterfeiting benefits consumers by given them access to lower-price goods, This is totally mistaken claim. First, imitated products are generally of bad & low quality, & don’t last long. There is no guarantee for money & more importantly there is no assurance that fake goods are safe, & can have terrible effects. For instance, low quality car parts can cause great damage to the driver & passengers when they fail. In addition, fake medicines or foods have negative consequences on public health. There are several cases of imitated foods & medicines which have caused dangerous & most often fatal diseases, especially in poor countries where the majority of people have low incomes. A recent study revealed by EU shows that the customs are confiscating 100 million fake items, as regards foods & medicines, every year & of course, the moral damage caused by these items to the victims can never be forgiven
