Exercise 3

Asculta]i din nou dialogul, urm\rind cu aten]ie transcrierea lui, inserat\ mai jos. Fi]i atent la
cuvintele din text ngro[ate.

Charlene: My friends are coming round for dinner tonight. I want to make grilled chicken
with fresh vegetables and a fruit salad.
Nigel:

Mm, it sounds delicious.....

Charlene: I have to do some shopping. We havent

got anything in the fridge.
Nigel:

OK, so what do you need?

Charlene: I need some chicken, of course.

Nigel:

How much do you need?

Charlene: A kilo, .......and we need some fruit and

vegetables.
Nigel:

Weve got some apples.....

Charlene: But we havent got any oranges and bananas. We need something to drink, too.
Have we got any red wine?
Nigel:

Yes, but its not enough. However, weve got a bottle of white wine.

Charlene: Thatll do. The white wine is better than the red one, and lets buy some
chocolate......
Nigel:

But not too much, remember what the doctor says.....

Charlene: All right, I know.

Dup\ cum bine a]i observat, n text au fost scrise cu litere `ngro[ate substantivele din sfera
alimentar\, precum [i determinan]ii care le nso]esc. n caietul anterior am discutat despre
pronumele [i adjectivele nehot\rte some/any care ap\ruser\ n dialogurile lec]iilor [i am pomenit
n treac\t despre substantivele num\rabile [i nenum\rabile.

S\ ncepem de la exprimarea:
some fruit
ni[te fructe

Cu toate c\ pentru traducerea n limba romn\ apel\m la categoria

de plural, substantivul fruit n limba englez\ nu prime[te desinen]a
specific\ de plural -s. La fel se ntmpl\ [i cu substantivele chicken
(atunci cnd nseamn\ carne de pui) [i wine.

Exercise 8
Was it a sad or funny story? Why?
Something really amusing happened to me yesterday. My
friend asked me to pick him up from his work, so I stopped
the car in front of the building and waited for him. Suddenly
the car door opened and a young, attractive lady got into
my car. She didnt look at me and she just said drive me
home, please. I was really surprised and I asked where is
your home?. Then she looked at me and she blushed. She
was so embarrassed because she got into the wrong car. She
apologized and she got out. It came out that her friend had the
same car that I had.
Exercise 28
The Nightmare Holiday
Last summer we went on a holiday to Greece. Our children
were really excited. But they were bored already on the plane.
They couldnt wait to get off and start our adventure. When
we arrived we saw a very nice hotel. Everybody smiled. Our
happiness did not last for long, though. There were some very

annoying English tourists at the hotel. They happened to be

our next-door neighbours. They were extremely noisy so we
couldnt hear each other talking. But I thought: we didnt
come to Greece to sit in a hotel room all day. So we decided
to rent a car and travel around the island. We wanted to do
some sightseeing, so I parked the car, and we got out. We
were walking around astonished by the wonderful things we
saw. However when we got back there was a police officer
who gave us a parking ticket. We were really depressed so we
drove back to the hotel. When we got into our room my wife
saw her favourite dress was missing. She started crying. We
were exhausted, and very disappointed. I wanted to cheer
my family up and so I took them to town. Our children were
horrible: they wanted ice creams all the time and all those
expensive souvenirs, so we spent a lot of money. It didnt
make us feel better. And the worst was when we finally
came back home. We found out that we couldnt develop
our photos. What a nightmare!

How to make it
Put the flour and salt into a basin. Make a well in the centre
and break the eggs into it; add a little of the milk and mix it
in the well. When half the milk is in, beat well for 10 minutes,
then add the rest of the milk, still beating. The batter should
stand for at least 1 hour before it is used. Add about a
tablespoonful of cold water at the last minute for a really
light pudding. Get a little fat really hot before pouring in the
batter, then bake in a
moderate oven for 30
minutes, raising the heat
just enough to brown it at
the end.

The world of English

Pentru a face o pauz\ de la lumea calculatoarelor n care v-am introdus n aceast\ lec]ie, v\ purt\m
ntr-o c\l\torie n frumoasa Irland\!

Bro[urile turistice care fac

reclam\ acestei ]\ri vorbesc
despre peisaje care ]i taie
respira]ia,
despre
stnci
col]uroase
care
coboar\
abrupt n mare [i, nu n ultimul rnd, despre plaje de nisip
pustii. Dublin capitala Republicii Irlanda nu seam\n\ cu
alte metropole occidentale zgomotoase. Poate [i datorit\
faptului c\ num\rul locuitorilor ora[ului dep\[e[te cu
pu]in o jum\tate de milion. De obicei, colindarea ora[ului
Dublin se ncheie cu o vizit\ la celebra fabric\ de bere
GUINNESS, care dateaz\ nc\ din anul 1759. La fa]a locului
putem degusta delicioasa bere [i vedea n ce mod se
fabric\ aceast\ popular\ b\utur\. Merit\ s\ vizit\m [i alte
ora[e, precum: Cork, minunatele Kilkenny sau Limerick.
Vizitnd Irlanda, nu putem ocoli minunata peninsul\
Dingle cea mai vestic\ parte a ]\rii. La intrarea n portul
Dingle ne ntlnim cu delfinul Fungie care s-a stabilit aici
definitiv, devenind atrac]ia turistic\ a ora[ului. n partea
de vest a ]\rii, ne suscit\ interesul Stncile Moher, care
ating n\l]imea de 200 m. La poalele litoralului Clare se
ntind insulele Aran, adic\ pe scurt Irlanda tradi]ional\. O
alt\ atrac]ie turistic\ o reprezint\ ruinele fortului preistoric
Dun Aengus. n comitatul Conemar putem vedea turb\rii
cafenii, lacuri, ziduri de piatr\ caracteristice sau ponei
s\lbatici care pasc liber. Cu ct naint\m mai spre miaz\noapte, cu att peisajul devine mai s\lbatic [i mai auster.

{tia]i c\ simbolul Irlandei trifoiul verde cu trei foi a devenit att de important
datorit\ Sf. Patrick care nu a [tiut cum s\ le explice irlandezilor ce este Sfnta
Treime? n cele din urm\ i-a venit ideea de a le ar\ta trifoiul cu trei foi, pe care l-a
comparat cu un singur Dumnezeu n trei ntrup\ri diferite. Sf. Patrick este patronul
Irlandei, iar s\rb\toarea lui este pe 17 martie. Aceasta este zi liber\. De obicei,
n aceast\ zi irlandezii se mbrac\ n verde [i se ntlnesc n baruri pentru a bea
berea de culoare verde. :)

ENGLEZ NCEPTORI

Cnd rezolva]i exerci]iul urm\tor, trebuie s\ ]ine]i cont de faptul c\ verbul must se folose[te cu referire
la ceva ce este imperios necesar, n timp ce verbul modal should sugereaz\ mai degrab\ cum ar fi
indicat s\ proced\m ntr-o anumit\ situa]ie sau ce ar fi bine s\ facem.
Exercise 6

Completa]i propozi]iile urm\toare cu should sau must, dup\ caz.

1. You look tired. I think you __________ go on holiday.

Un semn aparte

alte aspecte
importante ce
trebuie reinute.

2. You __________ speak English if you want this job.

3. I __________ get up early on Friday. Ive got a plane at 7.30am.
4. You __________ do more exercise. You are too fat.
5. You __________ eat it to be healthy.
6. I __________ write to Jim one of these days.

must

7. Where are we going? You __________ decide now.

Verbele modale nu nseamn\ acela[i lucru ca verbele auxiliare (do, have, be). Fiecare verb
modal are o cu totul alt\ semnifica]ie, foarte bine definit\.
A[a cum am precizat, verbele should [i must fac parte din categoria verbelor modale, la fel ca [i
verbul can, pe care deja l [ti]i din lec]iile anterioare.
S\ ne aducem aminte:
Verbele modale se deosebesc de verbele normale prin faptul c\:
sunt urmate de un alt verb la infinitivul scurt, f\r\ prepozi]ia to.
Compara]i propozi]iile:
You should go to bed.
I want to stay in bed.
nu primesc desinen]a -s la persoana a 3-a singular, timpul prezent simplu.

Compara]i propozi]iile:
She can swim.
She likes swimming.
verbele modale formeaz\ interogativul [i negativul f\r\ ajutorul verbului auxiliar do.
Compara]i propozi]iile:
Can you swim?

Do you like swimming?

Should I stay?
Do you want to stay?
verbele modale nu sunt nso]ite de prepozi]ia to la forma de infinitiv, nu au form\ de
participiu prezent n -ing [i nici form\ de trecut simplu n -ed.

GRAMMAR SUMMARY 38
O seciune distinct
sintetizeaz toate
informaiile
gramaticale dintr-o
lecie.

1.

Exprimarea evenimentelor recente cu ajutorul timpului Present Perfect

Timpul Present Perfect se folose[te [i atunci cnd vorbim despre evenimente de ultim\ or\, de ex.:
Peter has bought a new car.
The plane has crashed at the airport.
Mary has eloped to Spain with
a stranger.
The Prime Minister has arrived
at Bucharest airport.

2.

Peter [i-a cump\rat o ma[in\ nou\.

(adic\: Peter are o ma[in\ nou\.)
Avionul s-a pr\bu[it la aeroport.
(adic\: a avut loc o catastrof\)
Mary a fugit n Spania
cu un str\in. (adic\: ea nu mai e aici)
Primul ministru a ajuns la
aeroportul Bucure[ti.
(adic\: se afl\ deja la aeroport)

Folosirea timpului Past Simple pentru aflarea detaliilor evenimentelor

Atunci cnd aducem la cuno[tin]\ cuiva [tirile de ultim\ or\ folosim timpul Present Perfect,
n schimb, atunci cnd inten]ion\m s\ ne mbog\]im discursul cu mai multe detalii, folosim de
regul\ timpul Past Simple, de ex.:
Ive had a terrible day at work.
I spilled coffee on our best customer.
He got very angry with me and left
the office.

Am avut o zi ngrozitoare la serviciu.

Am v\rsat cafea pe clientul nostru cel mai bun.
S-a enervat foarte tare pe mine
[i a ie[it din birou.

De fiecare dat\ cnd cerem detalii, folosim timpul Past Simple. Cu alte cuvinte, dup\ o informa]ie
care ne-a fost transmis\ la timpul Present Perfect, dorind s\ afl\m mai multe am\nunte despre
cnd sau unde s-a petrecut evenimentul despre care se vorbe[te, punem ntreb\ri cu verbul la
timpul Past Simple (folosit ntotdeauna dup\ when), de ex.:
A: Peter has moved to London.
B: When did he go?

A: Peter s-a mutat la Londra.

B: Cnd a plecat?

Nu uita]i c\ ntotdeauna cnd indic\m cu exactitate momentul ac]iunii folosim timpul Past
Simple, [i nu Present Perfect. Compara]i propozi]iile:
Avionul s-a pr\bu[it ieri. (Eviden]iem
momentul producerii catastrofei)
Avionul s-a pr\bu[it. (eviden]iem efectul:
Avionul s-a pr\bu[it cu siguran]\ exist\
victime.)

The plane crashed yesterday.

The plane has crashed.
