Unidade 1 - COULD / COULDN’T

COULD / COULDN’T
(past of can)

Para falarmos de uma habilidade que alguém possuía, porém não


possui mais, podemos usar o modal could no lugar de can. Observe o
exemplo:

He could run marathons, now, he can only run short races.


(Ele podia/conseguia correr maratonas, agora, ele só pode/consegue
correr corridas curtas.)

Para fazermos a negativa, basta usarmos o modal couldn’t no lugar


de could.

He could run marathons.


He couldn’t run marathons.
(Ele nãopodia/conseguia correr maratonas.)

Na interrogativa, assim como fazemos com can, apenas invertemos o


sujeito e o modal could na frase. Observe:

He could run marathons.


He couldn’t run marathons.
Could he run marathons?
Yes, he could. / No, he couldn’t.

7
EXERCISE

Change the following sentences to the past affirmative, negative and


interrogative, with short answers.
(Altere as seguintes frases para a afirmativa passado, negativas e
interrogativas, com respostas curtas.)

He can play the piano.


He could play the piano.
He couldn’t play the piano.
Could he play the piano?
Yes, he could. / No, he couldn’t.

Joe can play poker.

Unidade 2 - CAN / COULD / MAY

CAN / COULD / MAY


(permissions / requests)

Podemos também utilizar os modais can, could e may para fazermos


pedidos (requests) e pedirmos permissão para fazer algo (permission).

REQUESTS

Can you open the door for me, please?


(Você pode abrir a porta para mim, por favor?
Could you open the door for me, please?
(Você poderia abrir a porta para mim, por favor?)

Quando fazemos um pedido, podemos tanto utilizar can ou could. O


segundo neste caso não é o passado do verbo can e pode ser usado no
presente por soar mais educado, mais formal, sendo algo como poderia em
português, enquanto can fica sendo algo como pode.

PERMISSION

Can I go to the bathroom?


May I go to the bathroom?
(Posso ir ao banheiro?)

Quando fazemos um pedido, podemos utilizar tanto can quanto may.


O modal may, neste caso, também soa um pouco mais educado ou formal,
enquanto can soa mais impessoal.

Unidade 3 - THERE IS / THERE ARE

Os verbos there is e there are (no infinitivo – there to be) são usados
quando queremos dizer o que há em algum lugar. Por exemplo:

There is a beautiful vase on the table.


(Há um belo vaso sobre a mesa.)

There are four people in this room.


(Há quatro pessoas nesta sala.)

Como podemos observar nos exemplos acima, usa-se there is para


substantivos no singular e there are para o plural.

Para conjugar o verbo there to be, podemos usar o próprio verbo to be


como referência.

+ - ?
present (sing.) There is There isn‟t Is there...?
present (pl.) There Are There aren‟t Are there...?
past (sing.) There was There wasn‟t Was there...?
past (pl.) There were There weren‟t Were there...?
future (sing. / pl.) There will be There won‟t be Will there be...?

Unidade 4 - IN / ON / AT for PLACES

Neste capítulo veremos como usar as preposições in, on e at como


preposições de lugar. Veremos algumas “regras” sobre como usá-las em
frases, porém é importante lembrar que exceções à essas regras
eventualmente aparecerão.

 IN

Usamos a preposição in quando queremos dizer que algo está dentro


de algum lugar.

The students are in the classroom.


(Os alunos estão na sala.)

The car keys are in my pocket.


(As chaves do carro estão no meu bolso.)

Usamos também in quando falamos sobre continentes, países,


estados, cidades ou bairros.

I live in Brazil.
(Eu moro no Brasil.)

 ON

Usamos a preposição on quando queremos dizer que algo está sobre


algum lugar ou em contato com ele.

The computer is on the table.


(O computador está na mesa.)

The clock is on the wall.


(O relógio está na parede.)

 AT

A preposição é at é usada, no geral, quando o lugar é apenas uma


referência.

Your sister is at the station.


(Sua irmã está na estação.)

The fan is at the door.


(O ventilador está na porta.)

16
No primeiro exemplo, o sujeito sister pode estar na estação, mas não
necessariamente dentro dela, sendo a estação apenas uma referência.
Assim como no segundo exemplo, onde o ventilador simplesmente está
próximo à porta, que é só uma referência.

EXERCISE

Answer the question saying where the objects are using in, on or at.
(Responda as perguntas dizendo onde os objetos estão usando in, on ou at)

Ex:

(clock / wall)
Where‟s the clock?
On the wall.

(label / bottle)
Where‟s the label?

17
(girl / Italy)
Where‟s the girl?

(notice / door)
Where‟s the notice?

(cow / fence)
Where‟s the cow?

18
Unidade 5 - Present Continuous

He is studying Math right now.


(Ele está estudando Matemática agora.)

They are playing very well today.


(Eles estão jogando muito bem hoje.)

Usamos o present continuous para falar sobre uma ação que está
acontecendo no momento da fala.Para formarmos o present
continuouspodemos seguir a seguinte fórmula:

SUBJECT + BE + VERB-ING + REST

Neste tempo verbal precisamos do verbo to be seguido de um


segundo verbo terminado em –ing.

He is studying Math right now.


They are playing very well today.

Na negativa e interrogativa, podemos usar as mesmas fórmulas que


usamos para o verbo to be no começo deste curso, onde mudamos apenas
o próprio be na frase. Observe:

19
He is studying Math right now.
He isn’t studying Math right now.
Is he studying Math right now?
Yes, he is. / No, he isn’t.

They are playing very well today.


They aren’t playing very well today.
Are they playing very well today?
Yes, they are. / No, they aren’t.

REGRAS DO –ING

Quando vamos acrescentar a terminação –ing a um verbo,


precisamos seguir algumas regras.

Regra básica = -ing


WORK  WORKING
WALK  WALKING
GO  GOING
DO  DOING

Verbos terminados em –e -ing


DANCE DANCING
DIVE DIVING
RIDE RIDING
DRIVE DRIVING

Verbos terminados em *CVC  dobra a última letra + -ing


SIT SITTING
GET GETTING
RUN RUNNING
BEGIN BEGINNING
SWIM SWIMMING
*Quando as 3 últimas letras de um verbo formam um CVC (consoante /
vogal / consoante), sendo a última sílaba a forte.

Verbos terminados em **CVC


VISIT VISITING
TRAVEL TRAVELING
LISTEN LISTENING
OPEN OPENING
**Quando as 3 últimas letras de um verbo formam um CvC (consoante /
vogal / consoante), sendo a última sílaba fraca.

Unidade 6 - PAST CONTINUOUS / FUTURE CONTINUOUS

She was working when I called her.


(Ela estava trabalhando quando eu liguei pra ela.)

At this time tomorrow, he will be going to Europe.


(A essa hora amanhã, ele estará indo para a Europa.)

Usamos o past continuous e o future continuous quando queremos


falar sobre uma ação que estava acontecendo em um determinado período
de tempo no passado ou no futuro, respectivamente.

Observando os exemplos acima podemos ver que a única diferença


destes tempos verbais para o present continuousé o do verbo to be no
passado ou futuro simples, como foi visto no começo do curso.

PRONOUN PRESENT PAST FUTURE


I AM WAS WILL BE
HE IS WAS WILL BE
SHE IS WAS WILL BE
IT IS WAS WILL BE
WE ARE WERE WILL BE
YOU ARE WERE WILL BE
THEY ARE WERE WILL BE

Para a negativa e interrogativa, seguimos a mesma fórmula usada no


present continuous. Observe:

She was working when I called her.


She wasn’t working when I called her.
Wasshe working when I called her?
Yes, she was. / No, she wasn’t.

He will be going to Europe.


He won’t be going to Europe.
Will he be going to Europe?
Yes, he will. / No, he won’t.

affirmative negative
past (singular) WAS WASN‟T
past (plural) WERE WEREN‟T
future WILL BE WON‟T BE

Unidade 7 - GOING TO

GOING TO
(present, past or future plans)

I’m going to work tomorrow.


(Eu vou trabalhar amanhã.)

My friends are going to travel to the beach this weekend.


(Meus amigos vão viajar para a praia esse fim-de-semana.)

Podemos usar going to para nos referirmos a uma ação num futuro
não tão distante e mais certo de acontecer. Não costumamos usar esta
forma de futuro para algo muito distante ou muito incerto, sendo que nestes
casos usamos o futuro simples com o auxiliar will. Observe os exemplos:

I’m going to work tomorrow morning.


(Eu vou trabalhar amanhã de manhã.)

If I work a lot, I will become a millionaire in 20 years.


(Se eu trabalhar muito, eu me tornarei um milionário em 20 anos.)

27
Veja que no segundo exemplo estamos tratando de um futuro mais
distante (em 20 anos) e de uma ação um pouco incerta (se tornar um
milionário).

Também usamos be + going to em outros tempos verbais queremos


nos referir a um plano passado ou futuro.

Portanto, quando quisermos tratar de um futuro mais próximo e certo


ou de um plano em qualquer tempo, usaremos o verbo to be + going to.
Para isso podemos seguir a seguinte fórmula:

SUBJECT + BE + GOING TO + VERB IN THE BASE FORM + REST

I’m going to work tomorrow.


My friends are going to travel to the beach this weekend.

Observe que após going to sempre usamos um verbo na sua forma


base, sem conjugação. Qualquer alteração de presente, passado, futuro
(não muito usado), afirmativa, negativa e/ou interrogativa deve ser feita no
verbo to be, e não no verbo após going to.

Para isso podemos usar as seguintes fórmulas:

PRESENT  +
SUBJECT + AM/IS/ARE + GOING TO + VERB IN THE BASE FORM +
REST

PRESENT  -
SUBJECT + AM NOT/ISN‟T/AREN‟T + GOING TO + VERB IN THE BASE
FORM + REST

PRESENT  ?
AM/IS/ARE + SUBJECT + GOING TO + VERB IN THE BASE FORM +
REST

PAST  +
SUBJECT + WAS/WERE + GOING TO + VERB IN THE BASE FORM +
REST

PAST  -
SUBJECT + WASN‟T/WEREN‟T + GOING TO + VERB IN THE BASE
FORM + REST

PAST  ?
WAS/WERE + SUBJECT + GOING TO + VERB IN THE BASE FORM +
REST

FUTURE  +
SUBJECT + WILL BE + GOING TO + VERB IN THE BASE FORM + REST

28
FUTURE  -
SUBJECT + WON‟T BE + GOING TO + VERB IN THE BASE FORM +
REST

FUTURE  ?
WILL + SUBJECT + BE + GOING TO + VERB IN THE BASE FORM +
REST

Unidade 8 - WH-QUESTIONS

WH-QUESTIONS
(verb to be)

Nesta seção trabalharemos com as principais question words usando


o verbo to be. Question words são palavras que usamos, na maioria das
vezes, para fazer perguntas que não podem ser respondidas com Yes or no.

Observe:

IS YOUR NAME PAULIE?


YES, IT IS.
--
WHAT IS YOUR NAME?
MY NAME IS PAULIE.

Veja que no segundo exemplo utilizamos a question word what, o que


torna a pergunta impossível de ser respondida com um simples yes or no,
nos obrigando a dar uma informação mais específica.

Trabalharemos aqui com as 15 principais question words. São elas:

WHAT?  O QUE? / QUAL?


WHEN?  QUANDO?
WHICH?  QUAL? / QUAIS?
WHERE?  ONDE?
WHY?  POR QUE?
WHO?  QUEM?
WHOSE?  DE QUEM?
HOW?  COMO?
HOW MANY?  QUANTOS? / QUANTAS?
HOW MUCH?  QUANTO? / QUANTA?
HOW OLD? QUANTOS ANOS?
HOW FAR?  QUE DISTÂNCIA?
HOW LONG?  QUANTO TEMPO?
HOW OFTEN? COM QUE FREQUÊNCIA?
WHAT TIME? QUE HORAS?

A maioria das question words apresentadas começam com wh-, por


isso essas perguntas são chamadas de wh-questions. How, apesar de
começar com h- apenas, entra no mesmo grupo por ter a mesma função que
as outras palavras.

Vamos aprender como formular perguntas usando essas palavras e o


verbo to be. Primeiro vamos relembrar como fazermos uma interrogativa
comum.

32
HE IS A DOCTOR.
IS HE A DOCTOR?

Agora pegaremos a pergunta e esconderemos uma informação.

IS HE A DOCTOR? IS HE _______?

Essa informação que escondemos é a que vamos descobrir usando


uma question word, que neste caso será „What?’.

IS HE A DOCTOR? IS HE _______?


WHAT IS HE?

Observe que mantemos a estrutura da interrogativa e apenas


acrescentamos uma question word antes do verbo to be. O mesmo processo
se aplica no plural e nos outros tempos verbais (passado e futuro).

THEY ARE DOCTORS. ARE THEY DOCTORS? ARE THEY


________?
WHAT ARE THEY?

Vejamos outros exemplos.

JANE IS IN LONDON. IS JANE IN LONDON? IS JANE _______?


WHERE IS JANE?

Neste caso utilizamos a palavra ‘Where?’ porque a informação que


escondemos é o lugar onde Jane está. Vejamos um exemplo similar no
passado:

JANE WAS IN LONDON LAST MONTH. WAS JANE IN LONDON LAST


MONTH? WAS JANE _______ LAST MONTH?
WHERE WAS JANE LAST MONTH?

33
EXERCISE

Make wh-questions considering the underlined words as the information to


be hidden.
(Faça wh-questions considerando as palavras sublinhadas como as
informações a serem escondidas.)

He is my cousin.
Who is he?
The book is on the desk.

Unidade 9 - COMPARATIVES / SUPERLATIVES

My book is more interesting than yours.


His car is bigger than mine.
--
She is the most beautiful girl I’ve ever seen.
It’s the best movie in the world.

Usamos os adjetivos comparativos para comparar dois objetos,


lugares, pessoas, etc. Enquanto os superlativos são usados para comparar
um objeto, lugar ou pessoa dentro de um grupo.

Para aprendermos a utilizá-los, primeiro vamos separar os adjetivos


em dois grupos: curtos e longos

Curtos  até duas sílabas*


Longos mais de duas sílabas*
*existem algumas exceções quanto a isso

Alguns adjetivos curtos:

big – small – safe – old – cheap – hot – happy

Com os adjetivos curtos, temos que seguir algumas regras. Para


transformá-los em adjetivos comparativos, temos de acrescentar a
terminação –er à palavra.

big  bigger than


small  smaller than
safe  safer than
old  olderthan
cheap  cheaperthan
hot  hotter than
happy  happier than

A mesma regra se aplica aos superlativos, porém nesses casos


acrescentamos a terminação –est à palavra.

big thebiggest
small the smallest
safe the safest
old the oldest
cheap the cheapest
hot the hottest
happy the happiest

35
Veja que em alguns casos não apenas acrescentamos a terminação,
mas tivemos de fazer algumas alterações na palavra. Vejamos as regras.

1. adjetivos curtos  + -er / -est


small  smallerthan / the smallest
old  olderthan / the oldest
cheap  cheaper than / the cheapest

2. adjetivos terminados em –e  + -r / -st


safe  safer than / the safest

3. adjetivos terminados em CVC  dobra-se a ultima letra + -er / -est


big  bigger than / the biggest
hot  hotter than / the hottest

4. adjetivos terminados em –y  troca-se o y por –ier / -iest


happy  happier than / the happiest

Alguns adjetivos longos:

dangerous – famous – expensive – beautiful – difficult

Com os adjetivos longos, acrescentamos a palavra more antes dos


comparativos e the most antes dos superlativos, como nos exemplos
dados no começo desta seção.

Alguns outros adjetivos são chamados de irregulares, pois não


seguem nenhuma das regras acima. São eles:

good  better than  the best


bad  worse than  the worst
far  further than  the furthest

36
EXERCISE

Make comparative and superlative adjectives with the following words.


(Faça adjetivos comparativos e superlativos com as seguintes palavras.)

cold colder than / the coldest


hungry  ________________________
sad  ________________________
interesting  ________________________
surprised  ________________________
angry  ________________________
happy  ________________________
huge  ________________________
dangerous  ________________________
difficult  ________________________
cheap  ________________________
expensive  ________________________

______________________________________________

39
Unidade 10 - LIKE / WOULD LIKE

I LIKE COFFEE.
(Eu gosto de café.)

I’D LIKE SOME COFFEE.


(Eu gostaria de um café.)

Usamos o verbo like (gostar) para expressar nossa preferência por


algo, enquanto usamos para a expressão would like (gostaria) para fazer um
pedido ou, na interrogativa, para oferecer algo a alguém.
Podemos usar would like de três formas diferentes:

SUBJECT + WOULD LIKE + VERB


I would like to drink. / I’d like to drink.

SUBJECT + WOULD LIKE + OBJECT


I would like a beer. / I’d like a beer.

SUBJECT + WOULD LIKE + VERB + OBJECT


I would like to drink a beer. / I’d like to drink a beer.

Podemos usar tanto I would like quanto a forma contraída I’d like para
fazer um pedido.

Para oferecermos algo, usamos a forma interrogativa: Would you


like...?

Esta forma também segue as regras mencionadas acima, podendo


ser usada com um verbo, um objeto ou ambos.

Would you like to drink?


Would you like a beer?

40
Would you like to drink a beer?

EXERCISE

Offer the following objects to someone. Then, say that you would like them.
(Ofereça os seguintes objetos a alguém. Depois, diga que você os aceita.)

Ex:

an apple
Would you like an apple?
Yes, I’d like an apple.

Unidade 11 - ADVERBS OF MANNER

How does he drive? / He drives well.


(Como ele dirige? / Ele dirige bem.)

How does she swim? / She swims slowly.


(Como ela nada? / Ela nada lentamente.)

Usamos os advérbios de modo (adverbs of manner) para dizer de que


modo ou maneira se faz algo. Estes advérbios, em Inglês, normalmente
aparecem logo após o verbo ou a idéia principal da oração. Observe:

He drives well.
He drives cars well.

Na primeira frase, o advérbio well (bem) vem logo após o verbo drive
(dirigir), enquanto na segunda frase onde especificamos que tipo de veículo
ele dirige bem, no caso cars (carros), o advérbio vem logo após a idéia
principal drive cars (dirigir carros), e não após o verbo.

Para formarmos os advérbios de modo podemos seguir uma simples


regra de se acrescentar o sufixo *–ly aos adjetivos. Veja:

slow  slowly

43
Para transformar o adjetivo slow (lento/devagar) em um advérbio de
modo, acrescentamos a terminação –ly, resultando no advérbio slowly
(lentamente/vagarosamente).

*o sufixo -ly, em português, equivale a algo como –mente

Esta regra se aplica à grande maioria dos adjetivos. Quando temos,


porém, um adjetivo terminado em –y, trocamos a última letra por –ily.

happy happily
Com o adjetivo happy (alegre) trocamos a última letra por –ily resultando em
happily (alegremente), e não happyly.

Alguns outros advérbios são considerados irregulares pois não


seguem nenhuma dessas regras.

good  well
fast  fast
hard  hard

No caso dos dois últimos adjetivos/advérbios, que são escritos da


mesma forma, como podemos diferenciá-los? A resposta é simples. Basta
observar a posição deles na frase.

Se estiver antes de um substantivo, é um adjetivo, mas se estiver


depois do verbo (ou da idéia principal) a palavra será um advérbio. Veja os
exemplos:

He is a fast driver. adjective + noun (fast driver)


He drives fast.  verb + adverb (drives fast)

Vale lembrar que nem toda palavra em inglês terminada em –ly é um


advérbio de modo. Veja alguns exemplos de adjetivos terminados em –ly.

friendly amigável
lonely solitário
lovely amável
silly tolo

any- ter um sentido negativo, o verbo principal (ou auxiliar) deve estar
na negativa

47
I don’t have anything to do now.

3. quando any- é usado em uma frase afirmativa, seu sentido passa a


ser “qualquer”

4. para se usar no- com sentido negativo, o verbo principal (ou auxiliar)
deve estar na afirmativa
I have nothing to do now.

Unidade 12 - PASSIVE VOICE

PASSIVE VOICE
(be + past participle)

Feijoada is made with black beans and pork.


(Feijoada é feita com feijões pretos e carne de porco.)

La Gioconda was painted by Leonardo da Vinci.


(La Gioconda foi pintada por Leonardo da Vinci.)

Usamos a voz passiva (passive voice) quando queremos focar no


produto, e não em quem ou o que o produziu. Nos casos acima, o foco das
frases são os produtos, como a feijoada e o quadro La Gioconda, e não o
quem/quem os produziu, como os ingredientes e quem pintou o quadro.

Se por algum motivo for necessário mencionar o “produtor”, podemos


utilizar a preposição by, como feito no segundo exemplo.

La Gioconda was painted by Leonardo da Vinci.

Para formarmos a voz passiva, podemos usar a seguinte fórmula:

SUBJECT + BE + PAST PARTICIPLE + REST

Feijoada is made with black beans and pork.


La Gioconda was painted by Leonardo da Vinci.

Toda e qualquer alteração entre presente, passado e futuro ou


afirmativa, negativa ou interrogativa deve ser feita no próprio verbo to be,
mantendo o resto da frase igual. Veja:

Feijoad ais made with black beans and pork.


Feijoada isn’t made with black beans and pork.
Is feijoada made with black beans and pork?

49
La Gioconda was painted by Leonardo da Vinci.
La Giocond awasn’t painted by Leonardo da Vinci.
Was La Gioconda painted by Leonardo da Vinci?

Apesar de gramaticalmente possível, não é comum utilizarmos o


futuro (will) com a voz passiva.

EXERCISE

Change the following sentences from the active voice to the passive voice.
(Passe as frases a seguir da voz ativa para a voz passiva.)

Leonardo da Vinci painted La Gioconda.


La Gioconda was painted by Leonardo da Vinci.

Unidade 13 - TAG QUESTIONS

You are David, aren’t you?


You live in Brazil, don’t you?
Dianadoesn’t smoke, does she?

Tag questions são “mini perguntas” que usamos ao fim de uma frase
para confirmar uma informação que foi dada anteriormente. Em português,
equivale ao que coloquialmente chamamos de “né?”.

Sempre iniciamos com uma frase afirmativa ou negativa e, após a


vírgula, incluímos uma tag question. Para as criarmos precisamos seguir três
regrinhas básicas.

1. +- / -+
Se a frase inicial for afirmativa, a tag question se torna negativa e vice-
versa.

You live in Brazil, don’t you?


(aff.  neg.)
Dianadoesn’t smoke, does she?
(neg.  aff.)

2. Mesmo auxiliar
Usa-se na tag question o mesmo verbo auxiliar usado na frase inicial,
seja ele o verbo to be, auxiliares (do, does, did, will, etc.) ou modais (can,
could, should, etc.). Altera-se apenas o sinal, como:

You live in Brazil, don’t you?


(aff.  neg.)
Dianadoesn’t smoke, does she?
(neg.  aff.)

3. Mesmo pronome
Usa-se na tag question o mesmo pronome usado no sujeito da frase
inicial. Caso o sujeito da frase seja um nome, ou um objeto, usa-se o
pronome relativo a este sujeito, como no segundo exemplo:

You live in Brazil, don’t you?


Dianadoesn’t smoke, does she?
(Diana = she)

BE CAREFUL!!!!!
Let’s go there, shall we? (let‟s  shall we?)
Don’t touch this, will you? (don‟t  will you?)
I’m right, aren’t I? (I am  aren‟t I?)
