Hola queridos amigos, después de una semana en la playa, estoy aquí otra vez. Aquí podéis ver un pequeño texto y algunos ejercicios de Inglés.
From the book "How to be an Alien" by George Mikes -adapted-
If you are invited to an English home, at five o'clock in the morning you get a cup of tea. You must not say "Go away". On the contrary, you have to say, with your best five o'clock smile: "Thank you so much, I love a cup of early morning tea, especially early in the morning".
Then you have tea for breakfast; then you have tea at eleven o'clock in the morning; then after lunch; then you have tea for tea; then after supper (cena); and again at eleven o'clock at night.
You must not refuse tea under the following (siguientes) circumstances: if it is hot; if it is cold; if you are tired; if anybody thinks that you might be tired; if you are nervous; if you are happy; before you go out; if you are out; if you have just returned home; if you have had no tea for some time; if you have just had a cup.
You definitely must not follow my example, I sleep at five o'clock in the morning; I have coffee for breakfast; I drink innumerable cups of black coffe during the day.
The other day, for example, I wanted a cup of coffee and a piece of cheese for tea. It was a very hot day, and my wife made some cold coffee and put it in the refrigerator, where it froze (se congeló) solid. On the other had, she left the cheese on the kitchen table, where it melted (se derritió). So I had a piece of coffee and a glass of cheese!
Of course it is a funny story, tea is fantastic, I love tea and English tea is one of the best in the world!!
Por supuesto, se trata de una historia divertida; el té es fantástico. Yo adoro el té y ¡¡el té inglés es uno de los mejores del mundo!!
LET'S PRACTISE SOME TENSES
Vamos a practicar algunos tiempos verbales.
RECUERDA: el presente simple lo utilizamos para expresar acciones que se repiten y que manifiestan un tiempo presente simple real. Con los adverbios de frecuencia "always, sometimes, often, never, etc" siempre ponemos presente simple. Si en nuestra frase vemos que hay expresiones como "every day, every year, every moment, etc" , también presente simple.
El presente continuo se forma: sujeto + verbo to be en presente + otro verbo terminado en -ing. I'm studying: yo estoy estudiando.
Se utiliza para describir acciones que hacemos en el momento de hablar y si en nuestra frase vemos palabras como: still, now, at the moment, pondremos también este tiempo.
