    CAN distinguish gossip from fact
    When people gossip at work, it is good to defend the person who
    is being attacked. These phrases can help you do that:
    Everyone has bad days.
    It could happen to anyone.
    He /She has a lot of stress too.
    Its not entirely his /her fault.
    Im sure he / she didnt mean it.
    Thats not always true.
    Youve got to remember (Bob) is under a lot of pressure too.

    CAN understand and use cleft sentences
    You can use cleft sentences when you want to emphasise a
    particular point.
    It + be + noun (you want to emphasise) + clause
    e.g. It is Harry who changed departments, not William.
    e.g. It was the traffic that delayed my arrival to work this morning.
    e.g. Its the noise, not the music, that is giving me a headache.

    in fact it was Carol.
    2. Your presentation is due next week whereas your manager
    thought that you had to present it at this weeks meeting.
    3. You are taking two weeks holiday in June, not July.
    4. You dont mind so much overtime as you do the pay reduction.
    5. If you lose an account, you believe that the lack of sufficient
