Comics.

A comic is a medium used to express ideas via images, often combined with text or
other visual information. Comics frequently take the form of juxtaposed sequences of
panels of images. Often textual devices such as speech balloons, captions, and
onomatopoeia indicate dialogue, narration, sound effects, or other information.

Comics and Graphic Novels improve your reading

While Americans tend to view comics as “fodder for children,” people in Europe and Japan have a
more positive view of the medium, explains John Lowe, who is chair of the Sequential Art Department at
the Savannah College of Art and Design in Georgia. Lowe thinks comics deserve more credit, especially
since they launched his interest in literature. “I started reading comics, and then I got into other types of
fiction and literature. I stopped reading comics a little later, but I don’t think I would have made the leap
*to literature+ if it weren't for comics.” In his case, Lowe says, he literally went from reading “Batman to
Faulkner.” Now he works with students who are interested in cartoons, graphic novels, and manga—
Japanese comics and graphic novels—which Lowe notes are especially popular among female students. He
has seen a steady increase of interest in the school’s sequential art offering since the program started to
take shape in the early nineties.

Imperative Form and Signs

O imperativo é a forma que usamos para darmos ordens, fazermos sugestões, dar conselhos ou
instruções, encorajar alguém a fazer algo, etc. Note que em todas elas, a ideia expressa é de ordem,
conselho, advertência, encorajamento.

» Come here. ( Venha aqui!)

» Go with them. ( Vá com eles!)
» Study hard. ( Estude bastante!)
» Look at this. ( Olhe pra isso! )
» Try again. ( Tente de novo !)
» Open the door. ( Abra a porta! )
Agora digamos que você queira dizer à pessoa para não fazer algo. Mais uma vez será fácil; pois,
basta colocar “don’t” ou “do not” antes de tudo:
» Don’t come here. ( Não venha aqui! )
» Don’t go with them. ( Não vá com eles! )
» Don’t study hard. ( Não estude muito!)
» Don’t look at this. ( Não olhe para isso! )
» Don’t try again. ( Não tente de novo! )
» Don’t open the door. ( Não abra a porta! )
Por fim, anote aí que você pode ser mais educado e gentil em seu pedido fazendo uso da famosa
palavrinha mágica, que em inglês é “please” (por favor). Nesse caso há duas maneiras de colocar o
“please” na sentença:
» Please come here. | Come here, please.
» Please go with them. | Go with them, please.
» Please study hard. | Study hard, please.
» Please look at this. | Look at this, please.
» Please try again. | Try again, please.
» Please open the door. | Open the door, please.

Os verbos no simple past são constituídos da partícula ED no final, e para isso, deve-se
seguir algumas regras:

Verbos já terminados em E apenas ganham o D: dance = danced

Verbos terminados em consoante+y, perdem o Y e ganham IED: study = studied.
Verbos terminados em vogal+y, apenas ganham ED: play = played.
Verbos terminados em consoante+vogal+consoante e cuja última sílaba seja a tônica, dobram a última
consoante e ganham ED: stop = stopped
Passado dos Verbos irregulares
Afirmações
As frases afirmativas com verbos irregulares se compõem do sujeito+passado simples do
verbo:

I saw (eu vi)

She said (ela falou)

As interrogações no simple past pedem ajuda do auxiliar DID (passado de DO) + a forma
normal do verbo:
Did you drink? (Você tomou?)
Did she sleep? (Ela dormiu? )
*Note que quem está no passado é o auxiliar DID, o verbo principal continua na sua forma
básica.

You did not drink. (Você não tomou.)

She did not sleep. (Ela não dormiu.)

Prepositions
As preposições de lugar mais simples seriam:

on – em cima
under – embaixo
behind – atrás
between – entre ( usado para algo que está posicionado entre duas coisas)
in front of – na frente
in: dentro, por dentro
out: fora, por fora
Aqui é importante ressaltar o uso do “in front of“ quando estamos numa rua. Se dissermos que estamos
“in front of the bank”, estamos na frente do banco, mas na mesma calçada. Se você quiser dizer que está
na frente do banco, mas do outro lado da rua, deve dizer: “I’m opposite the bank”.
next to – ao lado de
near – perto, próximo
 15
Cuidado com esses dois últimos que costumam ser confundidos, se você está exatamente ao lado de
alguém ou algo, deve usar next to. Exemplo:

I am sitting next to Susan. (Eu estou sentada ao lado da Susan.)

Porém, se você estiver sentado próximo a algo ou alguém, mas não necessariamente ao lado, irá dizer: “I
am sitting near the door.” (Eu estou sentada próximo à porta.)

Temos ainda:
over – sobre
below – abaixo

Activities
1. Choice the better option using "in front of, under, behind, on, next to".
1. He is sitting [atrás] the house. 2. We are [na frente da] the 3. John is [ao lado da] the bed.

Prepositions II
Preposição é uma palavra que liga dois termos e estabelece relações entre eles. Uma das maiores
dúvidas dos estudantes da língua inglesa é, justamente, o uso das principais preposições: in, on e at.
Sabemos que elas possuem o mesmo significado (no, na, em, etc.), no entanto, frequentemente são
usadas incorretamente. Vejamos agora as principais aplicações de cada uma dessas preposições:
In
Usamos “in” para designar algo dentro de um determinado espaço; não necessariamente um espaço
físico. Falando mais diretamente, usamos “in” quando estamos nos referindo a cidades, estados e países;
anos; meses; estações do ano; etc. Exemplos:
- In Sao Paulo (em São Paulo)
- In April (em Abril)
- In France (na França)
- In the spring (na primavera)
- In 2001 (em 2001)
On
A preposição "on" passa a ideia de contato de uma coisa sobre outra, como na famosa frase “The
book is on the table”. “On” também é usado para se referir a dias da semana e datas. Exemplos:
- On Sunday (no Domingo)
- On March 9th (em 9 de Março)
- On the table (sobre a mesa)
- On Friday (na Sexta-feira)
At
Já a preposição "at" é usada quando queremos falar em algo situado em um ponto exato. Em outras
palavras, o “at” é usado quando falamos de lugares ou momentos específicos. Exemplos:
- At 2 o'clock (às 2h)
- At my home (em minha casa)
- At Christmas (no Natal)
- At New Year (no Ano Novo)
- At church (na igreja)
- At school (na escola)
 17
A partir dessas preposições, são formadas inúmeras expressões idiomáticas. Alguns exemplos:
- At the time (na época)
- At the moment (neste momento)
- At one time (houve época em que)
- At full speed (a toda velocidade)
- In tears (em lágrimas)
- In a hurry (com pressa)
- In danger (em perigo)

Last year

I visited my mother and studied French. I didn’t have many problems and I made a lot of friends. I
went to the USA and learned English a lot too. I saw different places and had time to take pictures. I didn’t
drink beer, I drank only soda. I ate barbecue and slept late on weekends. I started a business and worked a
lot. My business helped me learn and understand things. I didn’t want to live in the USA because I love
Brazil. My life changed and I had many things to do every day. I also finished what I started in 2003: an
English course. I didn’t lose anything, I only won. This was the best year of my life. Everything went fine.

indicando sua posição em relação às pessoas do discurso ou mesmo situando-o no espaço e no tempo. Os
pronomes nos ajudam a evitar repetições desnecessárias na fala e na escrita. São divididos em:
Pronomes Pessoais - Personal Pronouns
Os Pronomes Pessoais referem-se a alguma pessoa, lugar ou objeto específico e são subdivididos
emPronomes Pessoais do Caso Reto (Sujeito) - Subject Pronouns e Pronomes Pessoais do Caso

1. Os Pronomes Pessoais do Caso Reto desempenham papel de sujeito (subject) da oração:

She is Brazilian. (Ela é Brasileira.)
2. Os Pronomes Pessoais do Caso Oblíquo desempenham as seguintes funções:
a) Objeto direto ou indireto:

6. Cuidado! O pronome obliquo toma o lugar de um objeto = quem ama, ama alguém ou alguma coisa e, às
vezes, esse objeto requer uma certa reflexão antes de se transformar em pronome oblíquo.

I love my book.
I = sujeito
love = verbo
my book = objeto (o objeto não é apenas “my”, mas sim “my book”), então:
I love my book = I love it.

Observe as palavras a seguir e troque o objeto da frase por um Object Prounoun adequado:
a) I love her brother. ______________________________________________________________________
b) I want that car.________________________________________________________________________
c) I teach their sister. _____________________________________________________________________

A COLD DAY
It is a frigid January day in York, Pennsylvania. The temperature is below freezing. Snow is starting
to fall.
Dr. James turns on the television to check the weather. He must leave for his work at the hospital soon.
“Today is going to be very cold,” says the TV weatherman. “Be sure to wear very warm clothes when you
go outside. Also, be careful driving on the roads. Snowfall will make them slippery. In fact, if you can stay
home today, do it!”
Dr. James cannot stay home. Very sick people are waiting to see him at the hospital. He goes to his
closet. He takes out the warmest clothes he has. He puts on a sweater, jacket, gloves, socks, boots, and a
hat. He opens his front door to go to work. A gust of cold air blows inside.
“Wow, it is very cold outside,” Dr. James says. He is from Miami and is not used to the cold. “The
weatherman was right!” Before he can drive to work, Dr. James must clear the snow off his car. He does
this very fast. He hops in the car. He shivers. His neck feels especially cold. Dr. James drives slowly to work.
Everyone else is driving slowly, too. There is a lot of traffic on the road. There are cars in front of and
behind him.
Suddenly, the cars in front of Dr. James come to a stop. There has been an accident!
Dr. James hurries from his car to check on the driver of the car that has swerved off the road. “Is
everyone okay?”
Dr. James asks. “Yes, yes, we are fine. We slipped on a patch of ice,” the driver says. “This would have
been a good day to stay home in bed.”

Futuro Simples - Simple Future

O Futuro Simples é a forma verbal comumente usada para expressar eventos que ainda não aconteceram.
É formado com o auxiliar modal (modal auxiliary) will + o infinitivo do verbo principal sem 'TO' para todas
as pessoas, ou seja, este tempo verbal não sofre nenhuma flexão para expressar o futuro. Observe as
formas e os usos deste tempo verbal:
* FORMA CONTRAÍDA: I/You/He/She/It/We/You/They' ll
- FORMA AFIRMATIVA:
I will wait for you in front of the College. (Esperarei por você na frente da faculdade.)
They will help us when they have a time. (Eles nos ajudarão quando tiverem tempo.)
She will only be at home next month. (Ela só estará em casa no mês que vem.)

AFFIRMATIVE FORM: SUJEITO + WILL + INFINITIVO DO VERBO PRINCIPAL SEM 'TO'.

- FORMA NEGATIVA:
A forma negativa do Simple Future forma-se acrescentando not após o auxiliar modal will. O verbo
principal permanece no infinitivo sem 'TO'. Veja alguns exemplos:
* FORMA CONTRAÍDA: WILL + NOT = WON'T
Rachel won't come. (Raquel não virá.)
I think it will not rain in the day of your marriage. (Acho que não choverá no dia do seu casamento.)
He won't go with us. (Ele não irá conosco.)
I will not celebrate my birthday next year, I've spent much money in my last birthday's party. (Não
comemorarei meu aniversário no ano que vem, gastei muito dinheiro em minha última festa de
aniversário.)

NEGATIVE FORM: SUJEITO + WILL + NOT + INFINITIVO DO VERBO

PRINCIPAL SEM 'TO'.
 44
FORMA INTERROGATIVA
Na forma interrogativa do Simple Future o auxiliar modal will posiciona-se antes do sujeito. O verbo
principal permanece no infinitivo sem 'TO'. Veja alguns exemplos:
Will he travel abroad? (Ele viajará para o exterior?)
Where will you spend your vacation? (Onde você passará as férias?)

INTERROGATIVE FORM: WILL + SUJEITO + VERBO PRINCIPAL SEM 'TO'

OBSERVAÇÃO:
Com a primeira pessoa do singular (I) e a primeira do plural (We), é possível substituir will por shall. Esta
forma é mais comum em perguntas, oferecimentos, sugestões e convites. A forma shall também é
considerada mais formal.

Passado Simples dos Verbos
Em inglês, o tempo verbal simple past (passado simples) é utilizado para expressar hábitos ou ações que
aconteceram no passado e não irão mais acontecer.
I liked him very much. (Eu gostava muito dele)
She traveled alone. (Ela viajou sozinha)
Formas de uso:
O simple past pode ser formado na afirmativa, negativa e interrogativa seguindo as regras de uso
explicadas abaixo:

Afirmativa: Formado pelo sujeito + passado do verbo principal, sendo que é necessário observar se o
verbo é regular ou irregular e assim saberá sua conjugação.

VERBOS REGULARES: Formado pelo acréscimo das partículas “d” e “ed” nos verbos.

- se o verbo terminar em vogal + “y”: recebem “ed”.

Exemplo: I played the piano (Eu tocava piano)

- se o verbo terminar em consoante + “y”: troca-se por “ied”.

Exemplo: She tried to read that book. (Ela tentou ler aquele livro)

- se o verbo terminar em consoante/vogal/consoante sendo que a última sílaba é tônica dobra a última
consoante + “ed”.
Exemplo: I preferred the blue shoes. (Eu preferia os sapatos azuis)

- se o verbo terminar em “e”: recebem “d”.

Exemplo: He arrived yesterday. (Ele chegou ontem)

VERBOS IRREGULARES: Os verbos irregulares variam quanto a escrita, veja alguns exemplos:

I wrote letters to my friends. (Eu escrevia cartas aos meus amigos) – verbo to write.
He paid the bills yesterday. (Ele pagou as contas ontem) – verbo to pay.
We knew to do the tests. (Nós sabíamos fazer os testes) – verbo to know.
She met my sister last week. (Ela conheceu a minha irmã semana passada) – verbo to meet.
That girl broke her arm. (Aquela garota quebrou o braço) – verbo to break.
He told the truth about you. (Ele contou a verdade sobre você) – verbo to tell.
Observação: É interessante verificar cada verbo irregular para saber sua conjugação.

Negativa: Ao formar frases negativas no simple past é necessário acrescentar o verbo did + not (forma
contraída: didn’t).

Exemplos:

The teacher didn’t (did not) wait for the students. (O professor não esperou pelos estudantes)
She didn’t (did not) sell her house. (Ela não vendeu a casa dela)
Sorry but I didn’t (did not) understand your e-mail. (Desculpe-me, mas eu não entendi seu e-mail)
My daughter didn’t (did not) finish her homework. (Minha filha não terminou a lição de casa)
They didn’t (did not) want to live in that apartment. (Eles não queriam morar naquele apartamento)
We didn’t (did not) know that beach. (Nós não conhecíamos aquela praia)
 54
Interrogativa: Ao formar frases interrogativas no simple past é necessário colocar o auxiliar did antes do
sujeito da frase.
Exemplos:

Did he wash his car last week? (Ele lavou o carro dele semana passada?)
Did the boy pay for the apple? (O garoto pagou pela maçã?)
Did she start to read that book? (Ela começou a ler aquele livro?)
Where did you put my sunglasses? (Onde você colocou meus óculos?)
What did you cook for lunch? (O que você cozinhou para o almoço?)
Did they play soccer? (Eles jogaram futebol?)
Com isso, pode-se concluir que o simple past é utilizado para expressar situações e ações que começaram
e terminaram no passado. E deve-se levar em consideração as regras de uso para formar as formas
interrogativas, negativas e afirmativas.

Inventing the Future
Imagine a computer that will recognize faces of people and help you to remember their
names, or a smart car that will wake up the driver when he is falling asleep at the wheel.
Scientists and engineers at the MIT – Massachusetts Institute of Technology – Media Lab believe
all this and more will soon be possible. Projects like smart cars, smart houses, wearable computers and
virtual pet dogs may contain the seeds of future innovations that will make life safer, easier, healthier or
simply more fun. Scientists and engineers are literally inventing the future.
A car that will alert drivers to potential problems or wake up the driver if he is getting sleepy seems
like a futuristic fantasy, but the scientists and engineers at the MIT are working to make this dream a
reality. Computers in your shoes, clothing or eyeglasses may seem like science fiction, but on the MIT
campus it is already happening. Computers in the future will also be quite different in brain power and
applications from what we use today. You will probably talk to your future computer and it may even
remind you of appointments and assignments or the names and faces of people you meet.
Vocabulary:
recognize: reconhecer; to remember: lembrar-se; smart: inteligente; wake up: acordar;
to fall asleep: cair no sono; wheel: volante; to believe: acreditar; more: mais;

Futuro Contínuo

A forma "Futuro Contínuo" (future continuous) na língua inglesa apresenta-se de duas maneiras
fundamentais, que são: "will be doing " e "be going to be doing."
Diferentemente do padrão do "futuro simples", as formas do futuro contínuo são geralmente
intercambiáveis.
Padrão do futuro contínuo utilizando "will":
(will be + present participle)
Exemplos:

You will be waiting for her when her plane arrives tonight. (Você estará esperando por ela quando o avião
dela chegar hoje.)

Will you be waiting for her when her plane arrives tonight? (Você estará esperando por ela quando o avião
dela chegar hoje?)

You will not be waiting for her when her plane arrives tonight. (Você não estará esperando por ela quando
o avião dela chegar hoje.)

Padrão do futuro contínuo utilizando "be going to":

(am/is/are + going to be + present participle)
Exemplos:

You are going to be waiting for her when her plane arrives tonight. (Você estará esperando por ela quando
o avião dela chegar hoje.)

Are you going to be waiting for her when her plane arrives tonight? (Você estará esperando por ela quando
o avião dela chegar hoje?)

You are not going to be waiting for her when her plane arrives tonight. (Você não estará esperando por ela
quando o avião dela chegar hoje.)
 68
Importante salientar que é possível utilizar tanto "will" como "be going to" para criar o futuro contínuo
com mínima diferença de significado.

Caso primeiro: Ação interrompida no futuro

O futuro contínuo é usado para indicar que uma ação prolongada no futuro será interrompida por uma
outra, mais breve, no futuro. Pode tratar-se de uma interrupção real ou apenas uma interrupção no
tempo.
Exemplos:

I will be watching TV when she arrives tonight. (Estarei vendo TV quando ela chegar hoje.)

I will be waiting for you when your bus arrives. (Estarei te esperando quando seu ônibus chegar.)

I am going to be staying at the Madison Hotel, if anything happens and you need to contact me. (Estarei no
Hotel Madison, caso algo aconteça e você precise entrar em contato comigo.)

He will be studying at the library tonight, so he will not see Jennifer when she arrives. (Ele estará na
biblioteca estudando hoje, então não verá quando Jennifer chegar.)

The Christmas

Christmas is both a sacred religious holiday and a worldwide cultural and commercial phenomenon.
For two millennia, people around the world have been observing it with traditions and practices that are
both religious and secular in nature. Christians celebrate Christmas Day as the anniversary of the birth of
Jesus of Nazareth, a spiritual leader whose teachings form the basis of their religion. Popular customs
include exchanging gifts, decorating Christmas trees, attending church, sharing meals with family and
friends and, of course, waiting for Santa Claus to arrive. December 25--Christmas Day--has been a federal
holiday in the United States since 1870.

04 Caller: It was a week ago, last Saturday morning at work. I work for the Postal Service. I
05 went to the doctor Thursday, he took a culture, but he never got back to me with the

09 Caller: This is the post office downtown. A woman found an envelope, and I was in the
10 vicinity. It had powder in it. They never let us know whether the thing had anthrax or not.
11 They never, ah, treated the people who were around this particular individual and the
12 supervisor who handled the envelope. So I don’t know if it is or not. But the symptoms that
13 I’ve had are what was described to me in a letter they put out. Except for vomiting. I’m not
