Unit IV

The Imperative Mood expresses a command or request. On Modern English the Imperative Mood has only one form which coincides with the infinitive without the particle to: it is used in the second person (singular and plural)
Be quite and hear what I tell you. – успокойся и послушай, что я тебе говорю.
Please put the papers on the table near the bed.- Пожалуйста, положи книгу на стол у кровати.
In forming the negative the auxiliary verb to do is always used, even with the verb to be.
Hush! Don’t make a noise! – Тиши не шуми!
Don’t be angry…- Не сердись.
The auxiliary verb to do may also be used in affirmative sentences make the request more emphatic.
But now, do sing again to us. - А сейчас, спой нам снова.
To make a request or an order more emphatic the subject  expressed by the pronoun you is sometimes used. It is characteristic of colloquial speech.
I’ll drive and you sleep awhile-. Я поведу машину, а ты поспи немного.
Note. –A command  addressed  to the third person singular and plural is usually expressed with the help of the verb to let.
Let the child go home at once.
Пусть ребенок сейчас идет домой.
Let the children go home at once
Пусть дети сейчас же идут домой.
With the first person plural the verb to is used to express an exhortation to a joint action.
Let’s go and have some fresh coffee.
Пойдемте, выпьем свежего кофе.

Unit VI

The Present Continuous Tense

    I. The Present Continuous Tense is formed by means of the verb to be in

    appropriate form + Participle I of  the notional verb.

The formulae is  as follows: am, is, are + Ving.

        e. g.: I am writing an exercise now.

For the interrogative form the auxiliary verb is placed before the subject.

For the negative form the particle not is added after the auxiliary verb.

       e. g.: Are you writing an exercise?

             I am not writing an exercise.

  II. The Present Continuous Tense is used:

   1. To denote an action in progress, duration at the definite present moment.

       e.g.: What are you doing now? I am writing a report.

       The Present Continuous Tense occurs in speech more often than the Present Simple  Tense:

        e.g.: Do you read this book?       -   is used less frequently than

            Are you   reading a book?

     Certain verbs are usually not used in the Continuous Tenses.

They are: be, have, appear, believe, become, expect, feel, forget, understand,

                remember, love, suppose, appear, need, taste, smell, want.

         Sometimes they are found in the Continuous Tenses, if they have certain colour in meaning:

         e. g.: How are you feeling? (in the medical sense).

                  How are you liking it? (in the meaning of “enjoy”)

                  I’m seeing yon tomorrow. (=I shall visit you tomorrow.)

                  He is expecting  the news today (in the meaning of “await”).

                  Are you hearing from him (in the meaning of “having the news”).

                  I am thinking it over (someone asks about my opinion ).

2. To denote one`s plans  in the nearest future (the time of action must always be mentioned).

             e.g. : Are you doing anything special tonight? Yes , I am going to the

                      Student`s Club.

     3.  Instead of a future action in duration in adverbial clauses of condition    of 

         condition and time. E.g.: If he is smoking when I am absent, I shall blame

         him.

Mind : the Present Continuous Tense is never used with the question

         word when , except when the immediate future is to be

         expressed.

4.     To denote an activity about a period around the present.

For instance : today, this season etc.

e.g.: you are working hard today. Yes , I have a lot to do. Tom ins`t playing tennis this season. He wants to concentrate on his studies.

     5. To denote the changing situations. E.g.: The population of the world is rising

         very fast.

                                                             Unit VII

The Past Simple Tense

The Past Simple Tense formed by adding –ed or –d to the stem (for the regular verbs), or by changing the hoot vowel or in some other ways (irregular verbs).

       The pronunciation of – ed (-d) depends on the sound preceding it.

It is pronounced:

1. [id] after t, d: wanted, landed, ended, started.

2. [d] after voiced consonants except d and after vowel: opened, planned, stayed, played.

3. [t] after voiceless consonants except t: worked, cooked, pipped.

The following spelling rules should be observed:

1. Final y is changed into i if it is preceded by a consonant.

to carry – carried

to reply – replied

2. If a verb ends in a consonant preceded by a shot stressed vowel, the final consonant is doubled.

to stop – stopped

to plan – planned

to sod – sobbed

to submit – submitted

3. Final r is not doubled when it is preceded by a diphthong.

to occur – occurred

to prefer – preferred

to refer – referred

4. Final r is not doubled when it is preceded by z diphthong.

to appear – appeared

The Simple Past is used:

1. To denote an action which happened at a specific time in the past. It is cut off from the present. The time of action may be indicated by adverbials of  past time, such as yesterday, a week ago, last year, the day before yesterday etc. E. g. : The police, stopped John on his way home last night.

2. To denote a succession of past action, especially in telling the story. E. g.: There was once a man who lived in a small town in the country. One day he left his house and went into town. On the way he met…

The interrogative and negative form of the Past Simple are produced with the help of form the auxiliary verb do in the form of the Past Simple did. E. g.: We did not see them yesterday. Did you understand him last time?

                                               UNIT VIII
                                    The Past Continuous Tense
The Past Continuous Tense is formed by means of the auxiliary verb to be ( in the second form) was/were and the 4^th form ( Present Participle) of the notional verb.
        The formula  is as follows:
         was/were + V4(ing)
E. g. : The birds were singing the whole night long.
        The negative and interrogative form is made by means of the auxiliary verb was/were:

        E. g. : What were you doing at this time yesterday? I wasn’t  looking at her while she was washing herself.
    The Past Continuous is used:
1. To denote an action which was going on at a definite moment in the past

    E . g.:   Yesterday at this time we were crossing the Channel.
     The definite moment sometimes is not expressed but understood from the situation:

      E. g. : He did not notice what was going on around here  - he was reading.
2. To denote the action which was in  the process for some period of time in the  

    past, indicated by the prepositions from… till; from … up to, or after

    phrases as the whole day, all day long.

    E. g.: The girls were dancing all ninth long. 
3. To denote an action thought of as a continual process. In this case the adverbs

    always, ever constantly are used. In this use the Past Continuous is often to be

    found in emotional speech.

    E.g.: She was constantly complaining of being lonely.
4. We often use the Past Continuous and the past simple together to show:
     a) That something happened in the middle of something else.
         E.g. : Tom burnt his hand when he was cooking the dinner.
     b) some action, which was process was interrupted by the beginning of another

         action.

          E.g. : We were having dinner when the telephone  called.
5. To denote two parallel  actions in the past being in process.
      E.g.: I was sveaping the floor while Ann was washing dishes.

Unit IX

The Future Simple Tense

     The Future Simple is formed with the help of the auxiliary verbs shall and will.              Shall is used with the first person singular and plural: I shall, we shall. With the rest of  the persons will is used.

E.g.:                you

                        he

                        she               will come next time.

                        it

                        they

I shall come to your place in two days.

Nowadays there’s a tendency in Modern English to use will for all the persons. But shall  still  remains in the questions expressing offer or invitation. E.g. :Shall I help you ? Shall we join the group ?

Besides in the formal  situations (such as writing business letters ) I will and we will is avoided. Shall is more preferable here.

In normal spoken English there’s a contraction to ‘ll, so distinction between  shall and will in this case is unimportant.

 E. g.: They ‘ll have to start all over again next week.

Contracted negative forms are: shall – shan’t

                                                  will  – won’t

There are different ways to express the future reference besides shall and will.

1. The Present Continuous and the form be going to + the base form is used to express the prearranged future action .

    E. g.: He failed his exam last year; this year he is going to work harder. You’d better take the washing in: it’s going to rain. I’m leaving for Glasgow on Friday.

2. The Present Simple is used with a time adverb to talk about future plans which are part of a timetable, schedule, programme or previous arrangenent.

 E. g.: I’m sorry I can’t stop and chart; I’m just about to leave for work. (every day routine). The train starts at midnight. (according  to the timetable).

Will on the other hand is used to express either inevitable  future action which doesn’t  depend on person’s desire.

 E. g.: He will be sixty next year;

or spontaneous intention for the future action:

 E.g.: Fred has fallen ill. Has he?  I didn’t kwon. I will call him at once; or prediction. E. g.: You will enjoy the party.
