The key is knowing where to pi the adverbs. Different adverbs go in different positions. Frequency adverbs usually go in a middle position (i.e. before the verb). J usually stay home on Saturdays. | never clean'my room. | rarely go swimming. But they go after auxiliary verbs (can, would, should etc.) and after the verb to (Le. am, are, is, was etc.). | will always remember her kindness. My dogs are usually very friendly. My science teacher is often bad-tempered. She has never won a prize. ‘Sometimes’ is different; it can go at the beginning, in the middle or at the end of a sentence. The middle position is the most common. He sometimes comes here. | feel sad sometimes. Sometimes | hate you! Routines Put each adverb in the correct position 4. Carl's neighbours make a lot of noise. (always) | go to bed late on Saturday. (usually) I get up early on Sunday. (never) Our maths teacher gives us homework. (rarely) Sandra is late for class. (often) Mysister and I argue. (seldom) Now, in pairs, change the sentences so that they are true for you, and read them out loudS8Iqqoy UMO unok gnoge suonsenb aya BujJemsue pue Buryse sun; eye) MON gsawised ayy ssanB nok ue eM OMI NOK Op AUM—*L zpa—u NOx op yuaUidiNba YUM —-9 WIM YP NOK op ou “g EOP NOK op asym “by @LOp NOK op ueyo MOH “Eg 2 Ul payseiaqul au099q NOK pip MoH 24 Bulop 11218 nok pip uayM exuewrs| seq0U qoys @ye2 pue sawinsed syunoney wleyy aqiosep squspnys om au} 03 LEIS! “saqnujus Q-¥ SOME Z ASEL /e101 Ul “0101 eu) inoge suoAsenb Jamsue pue yse Koyy 989} 24 U} 1S 01) 40 a1edaid pue eouenpe UI o1do} @ yoId swuepMs “Ye awNSed oe/ans jooyos “wy eqnoney s18uy jnoge UOHesJAAUOD e oneY S\UaPMs OM ‘Z 4SBL BuDjeedg U| -ayanones AW, yum BuIUUIBeq 91d0) © aquosap 01 peau os}e II/M NOK ‘381 Bupteeds arp op nok 4) pue ‘,-a1LznONe} AW, S| Seoloyo Aesse y UONDag atp Jo 2u0 ewinsed eainoneg AWSpeaking Agreeing and Disagreeing Agr Disagree Hike dancing.

AME Three hundred twenty, 70,284 Seventy thousand, two hundred and thirty-one. Seventy thousand, two hundred thirty-one. ‘a’ and ‘one’ are both used to describe '1' (‘a' is a little less formal). Can | borrow a hundred pounds? For things like telephone numbers, passwords, and hotel room numbers, we Usually read one number at a time. ‘Room 213’ is ‘Room two one three." 0 can be ‘oh’ or ‘zero’, but ‘oh’ is much more common in British English. ‘22' ca be ‘two two’ or ‘double two’. Dates Americans put the month before the day. For example, Christmas Day is 12/25, December 25 (also December 25"). With British English, we usually put the day: before the month. Christmas Day is 25/12. We read it as ‘the 25th of December Times We usually say the hour then the minutes. 7.20 = seven twenty 4.43 = four forty-three 11.06 = eleven ‘oh’ six We can also use ‘to’ and ‘past’ 8.58 = two to nine 3.22 = twenty-two past three 4.45 = a quarter to five 6.15 = a quarter past six 9.30 = half past nine (Note: in American English ‘before’ and ‘after’ are common.)
