English Worksheet Learning and Practice Guide 7th Grade I SEMESTRE 2015 Name: ____________________________ Grade: 7 ______ Date: June____, 2015 Unit: 3 Opinions Aim: Recognize and apply use of Modal Verbs, Reflexive pronouns and vocabulary saw in class. The purpose of this guide is to reinforce and practice main contents at home and in class. Month Value: Responsibility Some modal verbs can be used to express probability in the present and past.
Uses Must, can't: expressing present probability
Structure: modal + verb infinitive without to must be, cant be, must have, cant have, etc. We use must to express that we feel sure that something is true.
The team is playing really well today;
they must win. They must be very rich look at their big house!
We use can't to say we are sure that
something is impossible.

Structure: modal verb + verb infinitive without tomay be, might do, could go, etc. We use may, could or might to say that Examples: it is possible that something will happen in the future or is happening They may be arriving tomorrow. now. He might be away on holiday at the moment. He could be away on holiday. He might get the job. The negative of may is may not. The negative of might is might not. Both may not and might not mean that it is possible that something will not happen or is not happening now.
Examples: He might not get the job. I may not pass the exam. I might not go to the match tomorrow.
Obligations, rules and laws
Must - Have to When do we use 'must', when do we use 'have to'? Must and have to both express obligation. However, they are used differently depending on who imposes the obligation. MUST HAVE TO The speaker thinks it is necessary. Someone else thinks it is necessary. I must buy flowers for my mother. I have to buy flowers for my (It's her birthday and I decide to do mother-in-law. that.) (It is not my decision - my husband asked me to do it.) "You must take more exercise" says I have to take more exercise. the doctor. (The doctor says it is necessary.) (The doctor thinks it is necessary.) I must ask my secretary to book a I have to call the travel agency. flight for me. (My boss asked me to book a (It is important for me not to forget.) flight.) "Dogs must be kept on a lead." (Written on a sign in the park = a rule which must be obeyed.)
I have to keep my dog on a lead.
(That's what the sign tells me to do.)
N.B. In the negative form, the meaning changes.
You mustn't tell George = You don't have to tell George = it is important not to tell George = you can tell George if you like, don't tell George. but it isn't necessary. It's your decision.
Modals for Advice
Let's learn how to give advice! English speakers use the modal verbs should, ought to and had better to express that they think something is a good (or a bad) idea. Should is the most common way to give advice. Look at these examples: Affirmative A: I failed my test. B: Really? You should study harder. A: It's really cold outside. B: You ought to wear a warm jacket. A: You had better slow down. You are driving too fast!
Negative Young children shouldn't watch violent TV shows.
Question I have a problem. Should I call my parents or my friend?
(ought to is not usually
used in the negative form)
(ought to is not common in
question form)
You had better not
forget to pay your tuition. If you do, the university will kick you out!
(had better is not usually
used in question form)
These examples have the same basic advice message, but had better is a bit stronger. It includes the idea of a warning: something bad will happen if you do not follow my advice. For example: You had better do your homework. If you do not do your homework, the teacher will give you a low mark. In the above examples, you can see that the modals are followed by the simple form of a verb in these patterns. Subject + modal + basic verb + ...
You should study harder.
Note: You had better... can be contracted to become You'd better....
This is correct grammar, and very common in speaking. Some native speakers say, You better ..., but this is incorrect. The had is necessary in good grammar.
