Kompetenzerweiterung I (Monday Group), Homework for November 6th

Please complete the exercises (i.e. A-J) for Unit 7 and read through the grammar details for Unit 7. Bring any questions you have regarding rules/these solutions with you to next Monday's session.

Please read the file "Grammar for CAE  Future p 24" and complete the check exercises on that page and complete exercises 1, 2, and 4 in the file "Grammar for CAE Future p 25" as well. (For exercise 1 on pg. 25, I would like you to also come up with contexts in which the form that you did not select for the book's sentence could work. An example for sentence 1 (whose answer is "she's going to") would be "I think she'll faint if you tell her that." Will-future works in this sentence because the if-clause construction takes us into the hypothetical. Going to-future is used in the book's sentence because one sees concrete evidence in the form of the pale face.) You'll find the answers to these exercises at the bottom of the post (but please do the exercises BEFORE checking your answers!).

Answer Key: check: 1 fixed plans/arrangements, 2 a personal intention, 3 an unalterable arrangement or fact, 4 an immediate decision, 5 an action that will happen because it is regular or decided

exercise 1: 1 she's going to, 2 I'll, 3 I'm going to be, 4 I'll, 5 am leaving, 6 is not, 7 would, 8 will be doing, 9 will have gone, 10 are 10

exercise 2: 1 supposed/due/required/obliged, 2 just, 3 point, 4 unless, 5 be, 6 to, 7 left, 8 leaving/going/off, 9 be, 10 move

exercise 4: 1 the point of, 2 would do his/was doing his, 3 as we've paid, 4 is going to have (or: will have) an, 5 will have been studying, 6 to be taken/being taken/going to be taken
