An unfortunate weekend
0 c .
Sally Fox and her family left their home in Nottingham to go for a holiday in Yorkshire. Sally
wanted to go to France but her dad didn’t want to. Sally hadn’t been looking forward to the
holiday. She didn’t mind leaving her boyfriend and she thought Yorkshire looked beautiful in
the brochure. However, Sally felt that something terrible would happen.
1 ...............
On the way Sally had a row with her brother. He was listening to his music and he wouldn’t
stop singing. Sally got some sleep but still felt irritable. Mr Fox had said the journey would
take two hours. They left at nine o’clock and there wasn’t a lot of traffic, but the weather was
terrible. Sally knew her dad was a good driver so she felt safe. But, they were two hours late.
2 ...............
The next day they decided to visit a museum, but Sally’s mum had forgotten the map so they
couldn’t find it. Sally found museums boring anyway. Then her brother went missing. Sally’s
mum started panicking, but Sally stayed calm. Her brother didn’t have a mobile, but she
suggested they look for him at the local park. They found him playing football. They were
pleased and went to a restaurant to celebrate.
3 ...............
When they got home the front window of the house had been smashed. When they went
inside, the CD player and the computer had been stolen. The house was a mess. The thieves
hadn’t taken any of Sally’s necklaces but they stole some money. ‘We should have stayed at
home,’ said Mr Fox.

GRAMMAR
MODALS FOR ABILITY
When we talk about ability, we mean two things.
First, we mean general ability. This is something that once you have learned you can do any
time you want, like being able to read or swim or speak a language, for example.
The other kind of ability is specific ability. This mean something that you can or can't do in
one particular situation. For example, being able to lift something heavy, or find somewhere
you are looking for.
Can / can’t (for both general and specific ability)
I can play the piano. She can speak English. He can’t drive – he’s too tired. We can’t come now.
was able to / couldn’t (for specific ability)
When the computer crashed yesterday, I was able to fix it.(not ‘I could fix it’) She was able to pass the exam, even though she hadn’t studied much.(not ‘she could
pass’) He called us because he couldn’t find the house. I couldn’t open the window.
How can we make QUESTIONS about ability? It’s easy!
Modal auxiliary + subject + main verb + ... ?
Can she play guitar?
Could you speak English when you were a child?
BE + subject + able to + main verb + ... ?
Are you able to understand the homework?
Were you able to finish the test?
Was he able to pass the exam?
MODALS FOR POSSIBILITY
The verbs may, might and could show possibility now and in the future. In this case, they
have the same meaning; although may gives a higher degree of certainty.
May Affirmative Negative Interrogative

MODALS FOR PERMISSION
We mostly use 'may' for more formal situations and 'may not' is used to say that someone is not allowed to do something.
Example:
"Mr. Smith, may I go to the restroom?" "You may go as soon as you have finished your exam." Retailers may not sell items below the manufacturer's price
However, we use the modal verbs of permission 'can' when we are giving permission to
others.
Example: "You can borrow my book if you want, Diane." "You can go leave work now, I've got it covered." "Tom can go with you.
When refusing permission to someone, we use negative forms of the modals of permission; cannot = can't, or will not = won't, or shall not = shan't.
Example:
“Can I leave early?- “No, you can't!” “Ill go out on Saturday.” - “You will not!” You shan't get any money until the work is satisfactorily finished.
In many languages, the third person is used even when talking to an individual as a sign of respect and formality. In the English, however, we don't have such a luxury and resort to voice inflection and modal verbs to show politeness or respect to someone unknown to us or someone older than ourselves. 'Can' is less formal and more direct than 'could.' When asking in a simple or direct way we use 'can.' Can I ask a question?

Can we have something to drink? We are thirsty. When being polite, or wanting to show respect, 'could' is a better choice than can as it is a
more polite form than 'can.' Could I ask you a question, please? Could I try this coat on? 'May' and 'Might' can also be used when asking permission but are much more formal.
May I use your restroom, please? Might I ask what your name is? 'Might' is rarely used in this way as it's considered old fashioned usage, however, educated and polite people still use modals to indicate politeness and show respect and I, for one, am in favor of this kind of usage.
MODALS FOR ADVICE
Modal Verbs are used to give advice or suggestions. There are two modal verbs used for advice: Should and Would. Should Should is used for advice in the present. The structure is as follows: Subject + Should + Base Verb
You should eat healthy food. You should exercise every day.
Should is used for advice in the past. Here is the structure: Should + Have + Past Participle
You should have gone to the party. She should have studied more often.

It is common to use "should" to give negative advice. In this case, add "not".
You should not smoke. You should not eat too much candy.
The contraction is "shouldn't".
You shouldn't drive too fast.
Would
The modal verb "would" is used to give advice. In this situation, the speaker is giving hypothetical advice as if he/she were the listener. Here are some examples:
If I were you, I would return the book. If I were you, I would not wear that jacket.
It is not always necessary to include "If I were you".
I wouldn't eat that. I would choose the red shoes.
Normally, would is used to talk about yourself, and should is used to talk about someone else. Example:
I would study tonight if I were you. You should study tonight.
It is also common to ask for advice using these modal verbs:
What should I do? What would you do?

MODALS OF NECESSITY
The modal verbs of necessity show obligations in the past, present, or future. It can be a necessary action that was required over and over again, or something that occurred just once. The modal verbs of necessity are have to, have got to, and must. Have to,must, and mustn't, are used to talk about a necessity in the present or future. He has to attend the meeting tomorrow. He must attend the meeting tomorrow. He mustn't be late for the meeting.
Had to refers to a necessity in the past. He had to attend the meeting yesterday. There IS a difference between must and have to when expressing necessity for yourself or others. I must be careful not to upset him. They have to be in Charlotte before Thursday.
Paid online surveys Online paid surveys Gift Shop Church Service
** NOTE **
We normally use have to for things that happen repeatedly with adverbs of frequency like
always, often, and regularly.
I always have to do the shopping on Saturdays.
You often have to wait in line at the grocery store.
Must not, or mustn't, shows that it is important for something NOT to happen or take place.
You mustn't talk during church service.
Must not and don't have to mean different things. Must not means that it is important that
you don't do something. Don't have to means that it isn't necessary to do, but you can.
You mustn't give me flowers because I'm allergic.
You don't have to give me flowers but you can if you like.

** NOTE **
Must is only used in the present or future... NEVER for necessities in the past. Also, we use
the auxilary verb 'do' for questions with the 'have to' modal.
How often do you have to buy milk for your children?
Must is never used with other modals, the 'ing' form, the full infinitive 'to' form, or a past
participle. These all require the have to form.
They may have to be sent out of the classroom.
I would have had to go through Leeds to reach Manchester.
He doesn't like to have to do his homework after football practice.
MODALS FOR LACK OF OBLIGATION
If something is not necessary or not an obligation, we use the modal verb “do/does not
have to.”
For example:
In Canada, children do not have to go to school on Saturdays, but many adults have to
work.
Common Question: Do children have to go to school on Saturdays? No, they don't.
Common Question: Does Maggie have to study tonight? No, she doesn't.
Maggie doesn't have to study tonight because she studied all day.
MODALS OF PROHIBITION
We use “must not.”
For example:
Students must not copy their work from the Internet. It's illegal!
Children, you must not go in a stranger's car. It's dangerous!
Drivers must not drive on the left side of the road in North America.
You mustn't drink alcohol before you drive. You could cause an accident.
