Simple sentence structure in English:


subject – verb – object; subject – verb – complement

  All Clear Rules


A simple English sentence has two main parts: a subject and a verb. The subject is usually
a noun. The verb usually follows the subject and describes an action or a state.
The sun shines.
Nouns may also be objects. Objects usually follow the verb and say what was done.
Mary likes strawberries.
A complement is any word or phrase that adds information about a subject, an object, or a verb.
The soup tastes great.

6 Identify subjects, verbs and objects in the following sentences.
1 He’s eating an orange. 3 Mark hates football.
2 The children look very happy. 4 All my friends are Bulgarian.

Model Text
My favourite TV programme is The Big Bang Theory, an American comedy programme.
It’s on television on Sundays, but I often watch the repeats online.
The Big Bang Theory is about two
scientists called Sheldon and
Leonard and a waitress called
Penny. I really like this programme
because the characters always do
funny things. I recommend this
programme because it has a lot of
intelligent comedy.

Wild camping is a popular outdoor activity in Britain. It means camping without the
comforts of a campsite, like showers or shops.
Everyone can enjoy wild camping – you just need a sleeping bag, a tent and some warm
clothes. It’s also a good idea to learn some basic survival skills: how to build a shelter,
find food or purify water. It’s very important to respect the natural environment. Don’t
build fires or chop down trees and always take away your rubbish.
Phoebe Smith is an expert wild camper. She often tweets or blogs about her adventures
and is the author of a book about wild camping called Extreme Sleeps. She goes camping
in all weather. She usually sleeps in a tent, but she
also camps in caves or old buildings. And when the
weather is good, she sometimes sleeps outside  All Clear Facts

Every year, more than 10 million young people go to one of the


12,000 summer camps across the USA. There are speciality
camps where children learn specific skills. There are adventure
camps where children sleep outdoors, hike in the mountains or
swim in the sea. There are sports camps and even rock camps
where young people learn to play musical instruments.
In the UK, Woodcraft Folk organizes summer camps during the
school holidays. Thousands of teenagers called Venturers aged
between 13 and 15 attend the camps. They learn practical survival
skills such as building shelters and cooking outdoors. They also
learn about the environment, world peace and global issues.
The teens in this photo are making a fire. There are also
games and competitions. This year, they’re having a

Food origins
A lot of food started its life in very different countries.
European explorers took apples and onions to America
in the 16th century. They brought potatoes, tomatoes
and chocolate back to Europe. Rice began its journey to
Europe in China. But what about other favourites?
Persians grew sugar and in the 7th century they were the
first people to use it to cook biscuits. After the Arabs
invaded Persia, they took biscuits to the rest of their empire,
including Spain. Later, Spanish traders took biscuits to
northern Europe, and when the English and Spanish sailed
to North America, they made them there. These are the
origins of the American cookie.
Many people think that Marco Polo discovered pasta in
China, but this isn’t true. In the 1st century, the Greeks ate
a type of lasagne. But the Arabs were responsible for
modern pasta because they introduced wheat flour to
Sicily. Pasta, as we know it, was created in Italy in the 13th
or 14th century.
Ice desserts were popular a long time ago. The Persians
(400bc) and the Chinese (200bc) enjoyed snow and ice with
fruit and honey. Marco Polo discovered a technique for
making ice desserts in China and transported it to Italy. The
first ice cream made with milk and cream appeared in 1718
in England!

Mount Everest

On 29th May 1953, Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay became the
first men to climb to the top of Mount Everest. They took some
photos, and buried some sweets and biscuits in the snow for the
gods. They began their descent after 15 minutes because they didn’t
have much oxygen.
Edmund Hillary was a mountaineer and explorer from New Zealand.
When he was at secondary school, he climbed Mount Ollivier
(1,933m) in New Zealand. After Everest, Hillary made several
expeditions to the Antarctic. He died in 2008.
Tenzing Norgay was a mountain guide from Nepal. He made his
first expedition to Everest when he was 19. He died in 1986.

Public transport
Sofia
There are many forms of public transport in Sofia, including buses,
trams and trolley buses. They take passengers around and outside the
city. The Sofia Underground, which opened in 1998, has two lines. One
of them runs from the east to the west of the city, and the other from
the north to the south. The underground is clean and quite modern,
but it is often crowded.

Vancouver
One of the most popular forms of public transport in the city is the
Sea Bus. It is a ferry which takes people from the city centre to North
Vancouver across the Fraser River. Other forms of transport include
the Sky Train which has three lines and 47 stations around the city.
Vancouver is also famous for the float-planes which take passengers
to Vancouver Island. These planes can take off and land on water!

La Paz
This Bolivian city has an amazing form of public transport –
the cable car. It is cheap and fast, because you don’t waste
time in traffic jams. There are three lines and 11 stations at the
moment”. This unusual form of public transport is often called
the subway in the sky. It is not only a very comfortable way of
travelling for the people who live in La Paz, but is also a popular
attraction for tourists.

A brave knight was resting in the ruins of


Dunstanburgh Castle when a ghost appeared. The
knight followed the ghost into a room where a
beautiful woman and 100 knights were sleeping.
There were also two snakes. One of the snakes was
carrying a sword and the other a horn. The ghost said,
‘If you want to wake the woman, you must use the sword
or the horn. You decide.’ The knight took the horn and
blew. Suddenly, the sleeping knights jumped up and
attacked him.
Later, when the knight opened his eyes, he was lying
under the castle gates. He spent the rest of his life looking
for the sleeping woman but, in the end, he never found
her. They say that on dark nights, you sometimes see the
ghost of the knight looking for the sleeping woman.

There are 890 UNESCO World Heritage sites. Not all of them are buildings or cultural sites like
temples or castles. Some are natural places like rainforests and caves. Let’s visit some famous sites
from around the world, one natural and two cultural.

The Great Barrier Reef is on the north-east coast of Australia. It is


larger than any other coral reef ecosystem in the world. It contains
400 types of coral, 1,500 different species of fish, 240 species of
bird and many endangered marine animals like the dugong (‘sea cow’).

The Egyptian Pharaoh Khufu ordered his slaves to build the Great
Pyramid as his tomb. They needed over two million limestone blocks,
and they had to transport them over 500 miles to the site. They used
boats to bring the blocks down the River Nile because they were too
heavy to move by land.

The Historic Centre of Córdoba isn’t as old as the Great Pyramid, but it
has a rich, multicultural history. There is a magnificent Roman Bridge
over the River Guadalquivir. The narrow streets and the patios with
flowers and fountains are a sign of the city’s Arabic influence. One of
the greatest buildings in the world is Córdoba’s Great Mosque which
has a Christian Cathedral at its centre. It is a symbol of religious and
cultural tolerance.

New York’s garden
Central Park is one of the most famous parks in the world. It’s a
really good place to hang out, especially when the weather is
sunny.
The park has beautiful gardens, lakes and caves. In the summer,
there are free music concerts. There is also a castle and a zoo
with a rainforest! It’s a very good place for rollerblading, but
that’s too energetic for me! I prefer walking quietly through
the trees. I also like going on the lake in a boat. It’s not very
expensive and it’s very relaxing. There are restaurants in the
park but they are quite expensive. I usually take a sandwich
from home because it’s cheaper.
When you need to escape from New York, just visit Central Park!

Police officers in the UK are sometimes called


‘Bobbies’. They wear a dark blue uniform with a
white shirt, a black tie and a famous helmet. Police
officers who are ‘on the beat’ must wear this helmet.
On the beat means they work in the street, either on
foot or on a bike. When they are in a police car, they
wear a cap. Unlike police in most other countries,
British officers do not usually carry guns.
Probably the most distinctive police uniform in the
English-speaking world belongs to the Royal
Canadian Mounted Police, also
known as the ‘Mounties’. They
are the national police force of
Canada and their uniform for
special occasions is called the
Red Serge. This is a red
jacket, wide brown trousers
and a famous brown hat.

Cities, towns and villages

Where I live
My home town, Sozopol, is not very big. In the summer, it is crowded
and lively because of all the tourists. There are a lot of restaurants
and you can spend all day on the beach. But when the winter comes,
there aren’t many things to do. The tourists leave, many restaurants
close down and the town becomes a bit empty. Some people enjoy
it, but for me it’s too quiet. I’d like to live in a big city.
 Veselina, 16

Varna, the third biggest city in Bulgaria, is a great place to live. There is
lots to do after school: you can go shopping, visit a museum or watch
a film at the cinema with friends or family. We have got good public
transport, too. Of course, Varna has some disadvantages. For example,
some people say that the air here is very polluted. Nevertheless, I don’t
want to live anywhere else.
 Christo, 17

I live in Banya, a village near the seaside. It is 18 kilometres away from


Sunny Beach and 50 kilometres from two big cities, Burgas and Varna.
I like the countryside, because it’s quiet and slow. There aren’t many
cars, so I’m never in a hurry and I don’t waste time in traffic jams.
However, life in a village is sometimes boring. I can’t go to the theatre
or to the shopping centre with my friends. Anyway, I wouldn’t like to
move anywhere.
 Sonya, 15

Music in schools
Many teenagers in the UK form bands when
they are at school. They practise in their parents’
houses or garages. Some hope that they will be
famous one day but, in reality, most won’t be.
Famous bands that formed at school include the
Beatles, U2 and the Red Hot Chili Peppers. If
you want to be successful like these bands,
you’ll need talent, practice and luck!
A lot of children learn to play musical
instruments when they are at school. The violin,
piano and guitar are popular. Some schools
have an orchestra. The orchestras sometimes
compete against other schools in regional
and national competitions. They sometimes
travel to other countries.
Some teenagers sing in school choirs. Choirs
sometimes sing classical songs, religious
songs or traditional folk music. Gospel choirs
are also popular in both the USA and the UK.

Cycling in the UK
The British love cycling. If you visit university
towns or cities, like Cambridge, you will see
hundreds of bicycles everywhere. In big cities
like London, couriers often use bicycles because
they are quicker than cars in the slow traffic.
In 1923 the British Cyclists’ Touring Club started
National Bike Week. It has become a very popular
annual event. It takes place every year in June and
promotes cycling because it is healthier, cheaper
and better for the environment than cars or buses.
During National Bike Week there are lots of other
events for cyclists, like cycling picnics, barbecues
and sponsored bike rides for charity. Some
streets close for the day.

Many towns and cities


have now built special
cycle lanes, but most
cyclists think there should
be a lot more of them.

The UK has some very popular beaches. Some are peaceful
and wild and others are popular with tourists.
Newquay is in the southwest of England. It has a population of
over 10,000. It was originally a fishing port, but it has become
a popular tourist destination. Newquay has nine
sandy beaches and has become the UK’s surfing capital.
Every year, there are international surfing competitions.
The surfer in the picture was competing in Europe’s biggest
surfing competition in Newquay.
Blackpool is the most popular seaside town in the UK. It
receives about 10 million visitors every year. It was the first
town in the world to have electric street lights. It is also famous

the last day of October, we put on scary costumes and
decorate our houses with pumpkin lanterns and paper
skeletons. My friends and I also go trick-or treating –
going from house to house to get sweets from our
neighbours. It’s so exciting!
 John, 13, England

My favourite festival is Christmas. It’s a very


special time for families. We start celebrations
on Christmas Eve with a supper of traditional
vegetarian dishes. I really like the food on that day,
especially Sarmi and Oshav. I also like listening to
carol singers. On Christmas Day we go to church
and we have another big meal. And we get
presents, of course!
 Yanka, 14 , Bulgaria

I like Independence Day the most. It’s a patriotic


celebration and it’s a lot of fun, too. On the
4th July, we first watch a parade in the streets.
Then we have a family barbecue with hot dogs,
hamburgers and cakes. Finally, in the evening, we
watch a fireworks show. It’s always amazing and I
guess it’s my favourite part of the day.
