Key Grammar

present perfect continuous

Use the present perfect continuous tense to show that something started in the past and continues in the

present The form is made using the construction has /

have + been + present participle (root + -ing).

to talk about unfi nished actions I’ve been studying English for three years She’s been working out since 2.30

to talk about temporary habits

or situations

I’ve been learning to play guitar recently

She’s been thinking about applying to

study abroad lately

to talk about recent actions with a present result

I’ve been playing football all day, so I’m

exhausted

He’s been working hard all year, so he

graduated with top marks

present perfect simple vs present perfect continuous

The present perfect simple and present perfect continuous can be used for the same meaning However, the present perfect continuous usually emphasises the length of time The present perfect simple is often used for fi nished actions, while present perfect continuous can be used to talk about activities that are unfi nished or continuing

I’ve waited for hours I’ve been waiting for hours I’ve read the book you

recommended (fi nished)

I’ve been reading the book

7 Talk with a partner.

1 What are some advantages and disadvantages of schools like AltSchool?

2 What do you think of national standardised tests such as the ones in Japan and South Korea?

3 How could the education system in your country be improved?

The United States has many different kinds of schools There are public schools, charter schools, private schools, and more One group of San Francisco schools is called AltSchool These schools have a special curriculum It focuses on technology and problem solving The day starts with students using iPads to check their attendance Every week, students are given a “playlist” of activities and individual goals Students use the week to complete these goals AltSchool students are not put into years They’re put in learning groups: lower elementary, upper elementary, and middle school There are also no classrooms at the school Classrooms are called

“stations” for learning Students are encouraged to explore and learn freely For some, AltSchool is the future of education For others, AltSchool is an extremely expensive experiment—about £20,000 per year What do you think?

In Japan and South Korea, getting into a good school is the key to success It can decide your future job, salary, and even whom you will marry Students need many things to get into a good school They need good marks They also need to pass interviews

But most importantly, students need to score well on “entrance exams” such as the Centre Shiken (Japan) or CSAT (Korea) Unfortunately, these tests are extremely diffi cult In Japan, only about 56% of students get the scores they need to attend their chosen universities Because of the tests’ diffi culty, many students feel they

must attend private after-school academies These are called juku in Japan and

hagwon in Korea These academies help students improve their test scores, but

many people believe that they make education too stressful In fact, many South Korean students preparing for exams spend sixteen hours a day studying This has raised the question: How much importance should schools put on standardised tests?

Have students work in groups of four Then split each group into two teams of two students (teams one and two) Tell each team of two students to choose who will be truthful and who will be a liar Then have each student think of something they have been doing lately The students who are to be truthful think of something truthful The students who are to be liars think of lies Then have one student from team one ask a student from team two, “What have you been doing lately?” The student that was asked the question should answer, “I have been … lately.” Then the next student

in team one asks, “How long have you been …?” The student that was originally asked the question answers,

“ I have been … since/for ….” Then the two students from team one can ask follow-up questions to the student in team two Continue this process with the second student in team two Then decide who is telling

a lie and who is telling the truth Finally, reverse the roles with team two questioning team one

Key Grammar

relative clauses with when

We can use when to introduce a relative clause When is

a relative adverb which means “at the time that" It joins

two actions If the when-clause comes before the main

clause, we use a comma

Sarah laughs when she feels

past simple vs past perfect simple

We use the past perfect simple to emphasise that one event happened before another event in the past Past simple is often used to show two events happened at or around the same time

past simple + past simple We ate when Steve arrived.

We ate at the same time Steve arrived

past perfect simple + past simple

We had eaten

when Steve

arrived.

We ate before Steve arrived

past perfect continuous

The past perfect continuous tense describes an action that was in progress before another activity or time in the past

The form of the past perfect continuous is had been + verb + -ing

We often use the adverbs for, since, before, and when

before introducing the second action

Example

We had been playing music before Joan turned up.

I had been working at the company for only two weeks.

He had been sleeping for over ten hours when his mum woke

him up

Look at the photo and answer the questions

Ask more questions about problems and solutions

Describe the most diffi cult problem you’ve ever had How did you solve it?

What kinds of problems do teenagers usually have?

What kinds of problems do adults usually have?

In June 2018, twelve boys and their football coach decided

to explore a large cave [a] It was during the rainy season,

so the ground was very wet and muddy Unfortunately, the students lost their sense of direction while exploring, and rainwater began to fill the cave When the students tried to exit the cave, they found that they had become trapped by the water

Rescue workers quickly arrived; their first aim was to get oxygen to the boys They achieved this by putting miles

of pipes into the cave Their eff orts gained international attention People from all over the world came to help The surrounding jungle was turned into a makeshift town with food trucks and volunteer stations The Thai military sent over one thousand men and women to help with the rescue, including the Royal Navy Marines

A world-famous cave-rescue team was brought in from Britain

A British diver and his colleague discovered footprints They knew, then, that they were getting closer to finding the boys [b] Unfortunately, the rains continued These monsoon rains made the rescue eff ort even more of a challenge since volunteers had to pump billions of litres of water out of the cave

After nine and a half days, the boys were found, nearly three miles into the cave All twelve boys and their coach were saved

The rescue was a success! Sadly, a former Royal Navy Marine died during the rescue His life will be forever celebrated [c]

In the cave, the main challenge the boys had faced was finding enough food and water They drank the clear water falling down from the rocks They also had crisps and fi zzy drinks The coach gave all his food to the children and taught them to meditate to save energy They all held hands in the dark, keeping each other hopeful.

Relative Clauses with when

We can use when to introduce a relative clause When is a relative adverb which means “at the time that” It joins two actions If the when clause comes before the main clause, we use a comma.

When is also used to ask for information However, in this case, when is used as a conjunction.

Examples

Emily claps her hands when she feels cheerful When she feels cheerful, Emily claps her hands.

Peter bites his nails when he feels anxious When he feels anxious, Peter bites his nails.

Grammar

Past perfect continuous tense describes an action that was in progress before another activity or time in the past.

NOTEPast perfect continuous often uses the adverbs for, since,

before, and when, when introducing a second action.

Another action in the past

Before class, prepare a list of 20 to 30 different verbs

Next to each verb, write down a signal word (before, since, when, for) Try to have an even distribution of each signal word During class, split the class up into two teams Have each team line up at the front of the class Inform students that you are going to read out

a verb and a signal word from your list The student at the front of each line then must make a sentence in the past perfect continuous using the verb and signal word that were mentioned The fi rst student to say a correct sentence wins a point for their team The fi rst two students then go to the back of their respective lines and the next two students move forward Repeat this process until each student has had a turn, or until all the items from the list have been exhausted
