English - 7th form

Hi everybody! How are you this week?

I’m fine … at home!  

Today is Monday, July 6^th.

Let’s go on working with “comparatives”!

1- I invite you to listen to this beautiful song.

2- Let’s work with these lines of the song. Listen to it again and complete with: deep / taller / deeper

“………….. than the tallest tree is
That's how it's got to feel
………….. than the …………. blue see is
That's how ……………. it goes, if it's real”

So…let’s remember the rule to compare!

 Adjective: tall (alto)            Comparative form: tall + er = taller (más alto)

Adjective: deep (profundo)   Comparartive form: deep + er = deeper  (más profundo)

3- Now, let’s concentrate on this phrase: “the tallest tree”. ¿Qué sucedió con el adjetivo en esta frase? ¿Qué cambió en él? ¿Por qué?

Yes! It’s an adjective in its “superlative form”. What does this mean? (Estamos ante la presencia de un adjetivo en su forma superlativa. ¿Qué significa ésto?).

Adjective: tall (alto)    Superlative form: tall + est = tallest (el más alto de todos)

4- So… what’s the message of the song? Complete the phrase!

When somebody loves you all the way, that love is taller than the ……………………tree and deeper than the ……………………………..sea.

5- Can you investigate about these facts? Ask Google the questions!

Which is the tallest tree in the world?........................................................

Which is the deepest see in the world?.......................................................

I’m waiting for your answers!

Love, Marcela.
