It’s reading week, are you ready? Hey Fast Pass Method students, how are you? This week the lesson on our platform is reading week. Reading is really important as it transports us to different lands and different times and allows us to use our imaginations. This is important also because talking about books that we have read to people is important in the ability to increase the way we speak and communicate in English and now with beautiful longer sunny days the possibility to go out into a park or the beach and have a good book with you is really possible so the topic on the platform this week reading week will help you with new vocabulary, expressions idioms and some amazing speaking topics. Remember that the Fast Pass Method was created to help people speak because we truly believe that the only way that you are going to improve your English is by speaking and speaking about topics that you find interesting and we all have a very interesting book that we would love to speak about. So the topic is about reading in reading week. Also we want to say well done to all our students that answered all correctly for our Wednesday listening and our Friday test, well done to you guys and to our new students joining us, thank you so much and welcome to brent school with the Fast Pass Method. And this week we have a new teacher joining us Lisa. Lisa will be explaining the grammar video, also we will be going to Sonia in Madrid to find out what Fast Pass Español has for us and also Adriana to see what the podcast has for us. So now it’s time to go over to our new teacher Lisa to have an explanation about the grammar which is the passive tense.
– hi Lisa. thanks brent hello everyone i’m Lisa Liu, thank you so much for joining us. This week we are looking at passive tense. When do we use passive tents? while we use passive tens when what happens is more important than who does it for example the car has been repaired so we can go away this weekend.
We also use the passive tense when we don’t know who or what does or did something for example: “my mobile phone has been stolen”.
We further use the passive tense when we don’t need to say who or what does or did something because it is clear from the situation or context for example: “the law was passed earlier this year” It is obvious by the context that the law was passed by the government and finally when writing in an official style for example: “your ticket has been booked and can be connected from our office. There are many more examples of the passive tents that you can see on the platform so please do check them out and have a wonderful week!
Thank you so much Lisa and we look forward to seeing you in the lessons.
