Kompetenzerweiterung II, Homework for Week 11 (Sessions on June 18th and 19th)

For homework, please:

-complete the exercises on this page: http://www.m-prestige.net/eprestige/cc/cpe/cpetext/prt6-10.htm
-complete the following quizzes on modals (be sure to read any grammar explanations featured on the pages):

(Note that "mustn't" reports lack of permission...you are essentially saying "it's not allowed/it's forbidden" but you aren't doing the forbidding yourself. This is why a parent would never say to a child, "You mustn't stay out past midnight" because the parent is the "end of the line" in terms of authority. The parent would, however, say "You must be home by midnight." We'll continue with these points in next week's sessions.)

On the exam, you will have sections dedicated to:
-modal verbs
-conditional sentences
-tense
-verb patterns
-word formation
-CLOZE
-key word transformation
-writing (i.e. the essay)

Your optional writing task for this week is to submit 250-300 words answering a question that fits the "Is X becoming too Y?" template. As discussed in Tuesday's class, you can fill "X" and "Y" in with anything you'd like.
