Exam example

• Correct the following sentences and give a possible reason for the mistake.

  Example.

  I'm wanting an ice-cream. I want an ice-cream. Want is a state verb and
  cannot be used in the continuous.

  n.b. Just saying that it should be present simple instead of the
  present continuous IS NOT a reason. You must explain why.

  
  

• Name the tense used, state why and give one teaching idea. (gives examples of the language that the teaching idea will have the students using).

  Example.

  I'm seeing the doctor at 3.00 tomorrow.

  Tense: present continuous to talk about a definite arrangement in the future.

  Teaching Idea: Students are given a diary with appointments for the
  coming week and students in pairs try to find times when they are both free.




• Choose the correct form for the following:

  Example.

  Jack and Jill (is/are) over the hill. Are

  If I (go/went) to Australia, I would go to Melbourne.
