Dictation 30

The public killed the queen.

Can you show me the way to the station, please?

Our bodies are full of blood.

How do we form the past tense of regular verbs?

By adding the letters "ed".

How often do you walk along this street?

This way is the quickest.

I agree that smoking is bad for the health.

I had to meet him at the corner of the street, and he asked me to bring him some money.

I cannot jump as high as the door.

Generally we use "small" instead of "little" to formthe Comparative and Superlative of

"little".

We usually say "smaller" and "smallest" and not "littler" and "littlest", because they are easier to pronounce.

littler/littlestは言いづらいので使わない。

代わりに、smaller/smallestを使う。

Present - I see him every week.

Past - I saw him last week.

Past Participle - I have seen him this week.

Generally speaking, each verb in English has three parts - /the Present, the Past andthe Past Participle./ 

For example "I see him every week" is Present "I saw him lastweek" is Past, and I  have seen him this week' is where the word "seen" is the Past Participle. 

The three parts of the verb (see, saw, seen) are called a paradigm.

We must learn the paradigm of each verb. Some are very easy and some are difficult.

There are four kinds of verbs: 

1) Those that have all three parts different. 

For example, "see - saw - seen". 

2) Those that have only two parts different. 

For example, "sit - sat - sat". 

3) Those that have all their parts the same. 

For example, "cut - cut - cut" 

4) The regular verbs that add the letters "ed" to form their

Past and Past Participles. 

For example, "arrive - arrived - arrived".
