I. LEE EL SIGUIENTE TEXTO Y RESPONDE LA SIGUIENTE PREGUNTA: ¿CUÀLES SON LAS

SIMILITUDES ENTRE EL INGLÈS Y EL ESPAÑOL?

SIMILARITIES BETWEEN ENGLISH AND SPANISH LANGUAGES

Fortunately for Spanish-speaking English language learners, there are many similarities
between English and Spanish. First of all, both languages use the Roman alphabet. That
knowledge helps build a phonemic and phonological foundation. Secondly, 30% to 40% of all
words in English have a related word in Spanish. With similar sound, appearance, and
meaning, these cognates help students transfer that word knowledge into their second
language. Thirdly, except for a couple of word order exceptions (adjective before noun in
English and noun before adjective in Spanish), sentences in both languages have the same
basic structures (as compared to English and Chinese or other non-Latin derived languages).
And fourth, learning to read and write uses the same basic processes (phonemic awareness,
decoding, fluency, comprehension, vocabulary). When teachers and students know these
basic similarities between the two languages, it save time and guess work as students transfer
their knowledge of Spanish literacy into English literacy.

Venezuela, a country in the northern part of South America, is bordered by Brazil,

Colombia, Guyana, and the Caribbean Sea. It has four main regions. The first region
includes the very high peaks of the Andes Mountains, which are located in the
southwestern of the nation. The hot and humid coastal plain, where the oil wealth is
found, includes Lake Maracaibo and the Orinoco River Delta. The Llanos lies between
the Andes and the Orinoco. Finally, the Guiana Highlands extends from the Orinoco
River to the Brazilian border.
