TOPIC 1
WOULD YOU DO THE RIGHT THING?
In the class titled "Would You Do the Right Thing?", we explored the concept of ethics in various
situations, focusing on author Philip Pullman's commentary on the illegality of unauthorized
downloading. Throughout the discussion, emphasis was placed on the use of Multi-word verbs,
such as "keep on," "take care of," "hand in," and "put off."
1. Multi-word Verbs:
We directed our attention to the vocabulary of Multi-word verbs to express actions more
precisely. For example:
- Keep on: Despite warnings, some students "keep on" downloading illegally.
- Take care of: It is vital to continue "taking care of" intellectual property to ensure a fair and
equitable environment.
- Hand in: Students should learn the importance of "handing in" their work ethically, without
resorting to illegal downloading.
- Put off: The temptation to download illegally should not "put off" individual responsibility.
TOPIC 2
I‘M TOO EMBARRASSED TO COMPLAIN
In the class titled "I Am Too Embarrassed to Complain," we delved into the phenomenon of
reluctance to complain, focusing on vocabulary related to noun formation. Additionally, we
examined the use of quantifiers "too" and "not enough" in grammar to express dissatisfaction or
discomfort.
1. Vocabulary - Noun Formation:
During the lesson, the significance of expanding vocabulary through noun formation was
emphasized. For example, we looked at how nouns can be formed from adjectives, verbs, and
other words to enrich the expression of ideas. A specific reference was "The Biggest
Complainers in Europe," where we analyzed how specific vocabulary can convey emotional and
cultural nuances in complaining.
Example:
- Adjective: Embarrassed
- Formed Noun: Embarrassment
- Example in Context: She experienced a moment of embarrassment when she realized her
mistake.
2. Grammar - Quantifiers Too/ Not Enough:
In this section, we explored how to use the quantifiers "too" and "not enough" to express levels
of satisfaction or dissatisfaction. We discussed how these grammatical structures are crucial for
conveying the degree of comfort or discontent in various situations.
Examples:
- Use of Too:
- The coffee was too hot to drink.
- He spoke too quickly for me to understand.
- Use of Not Enough:
- There is not enough time to complete the assignment.
- The soup was not hot enough for my liking.
In conclusion, the topic addressed the importance of effectively expressing complaints through
vocabulary expansion and the precise use of grammatical quantifiers. These elements are
essential for communicating experiences and feelings in a more nuanced and enriched manner.
