At first, passive voice might appear complex, but once you get acquainted with it, the fundamental structures stay the same. The ability to switch between passive and active voices is beneficial for intermediate to advanced English learners as it can prevent miscommunications, boost politeness, and enhance language abilities. This is a detailed explanation of the occasions where the passive voice should be used in the English language.

Passive voice emphasizes the recipient of the action rather than the doer (agent) of the action. The passive voice is created by us using:

The action was received by the object (by the doer of the action).

Incorporating the part related to the agent (by + person who performed the action) is not mandatory and varies based on the situation. The aim of using passive voice is to highlight the action rather than the agent, therefore including information about the agent could be redundant or stating the obvious.

This in-depth manual details the formation and usage of the Passive Voice, including numerous examples and practice exercises. The answer key can be located at the conclusion of the book.

Reported Speech, also known as Indirect Speech, is an important part of conversational English because it requires repeating someone else's words.

English language students need to learn and practice the Reported Speech, since it is used in various situations to convey information or repeat someone else's words. This ebook will focus only on instances where the reporting verb is in past tense (such as said, told, etc.), necessitating a shift to past tense in the reported clause for practical reasons. For example: 'I am going to the super market' becomes 'He said that he was going to the super market'. It is also possible to report someone's words in the present without any tense change. For example: 'He says he is going to the super market'.

This ebook can help students learn how to use Reported Speech, understand its purpose, and practice through various interactive exercises. The solutions are given towards the conclusion of the book.

Creating if-then statements is a common aspect of your mother tongue, and incorporating them into your English discussions can greatly enhance your communication skills. In total, there are four conditionals that you will gradually learn to use, beginning with the most basic ones: the zero and first conditional. Take a glance at this overview to get a general understanding of how all conditionals function and when to apply them.

A sentence with a condition relies on the word 'if'. Conditional sentences consist of two parts - the first part starts with 'if' to depict a potential scenario, while the second part explains the result. Input: "The company experienced a significant decrease in profits due to the economic downturn."

Paraphrased: "The economic downturn led to a large decrease in profits for the company."

If it starts raining, we will become soaked.

The meaning remains the same even when the two parts are switched.

Check out this practical ebook guide to find out how the conditionals are form, when and how they are used, and plenty of practice for your students.

Objective:
Help students identify the verb in a sentence, enhancing their understanding of sentence structure and improving their reading and writing skills.

What is a Verb?
A verb is a word that expresses an action, occurrence, or state of being. It is a crucial part of a sentence, as it often tells what the subject is doing.

Types of Verbs:

1. Action Verbs: Describe physical or mental actions (e.g., run, think, play).
2. Linking Verbs: Connect the subject to additional information (e.g., is, are, seem).
3. Helping Verbs: Assist main verbs to express tense, mood, or voice (e.g., have, will, can).

How to Identify the Verb:

1. Ask Questions:

• Who is doing something? (Subject)
• What are they doing? (Action/Linking Verb)

1. Look for Action Words:

• Words that show what the subject is doing are usually verbs.

1. Identify Linking Verbs:

• If the sentence describes a state of being or connects the subject to more information, find the linking verb.

1. Check for Helping Verbs:

• Look for auxiliary verbs that accompany a main verb.

Practice Activity:

1. Read the following sentences:

• The cat jumps over the fence.
• She is a great artist.
• They will be attending the concert.

1. Identify the verbs and classify them as action, linking, or helping.

Tips for Success:

• Remember that a sentence can have more than one verb.
• Use the context of the sentence to determine the correct verb if it’s not immediately clear.
• Practice with varied sentence structures to become more comfortable identifying verbs.

Conclusion:
Recognizing verbs is essential for mastering language skills. Encourage students to practice regularly and apply their knowledge in writing and reading exercises.

2. Underline the subject in one color.
3. Circle the verb in another color.
4. Highlight the entire predicate.
