• ¿Cuál es el tema central de la carta?

  Dear sister,

  This weekend I'm going to look for a new apartment to rent. I'm optimistic that I can find a cheap one. I don’t have to find it soon. However, I would like to find it before the end of summer. I would also like to find an apartment that has a parking garage. I also need an apartment that accepts pets. I don't want to give away my cat. Many landlords don't mind if their tenants have small pets.

  • Los departamentos bonitos son difíciles de encontrar
  • La persona tiene que dar sus tres gatos en adopción
  • Muchos dueños de apartamentos no aceptan gatos
  • La persona necesita un tipo particular de apartamento

  How do you get to the post office?

  To get to the this place is very easy! First step: you will need to take St. Clare Street. It's the shortest of the streets in this neighborhood. It's in front of the church, you will recognize it easily! Second step: you will need to walk down 4 streets, until you get to the corner of St. Clare Street and Blossom Street. There's a bookshop on that very corner, its name is "Papúa Inn" Book Shop. Very easy to recognize too. Third step: you will need to turn to your left when on the corner, and walk two more blocks. The post office will be on another corner (Blossom St. & Evergreen St.), right in front of a drugstore.

• De acuerdo con el texto, ¿qué información es correcta?

  If nouns show number by adding -s to the plural, what do verbs do to show whether a verb is singular or plural? A long time ago, English verbs had many different endings for this purpose, but most of those endings have been dropped. Today most English verbs look the same whether the subject is singular or plural: “I talk,” “we talk,” “the men talk,” “I remembered,” “they remembered,” “the class remembered,” and so on. However, there is one place where English verbs have kept a special ending to show number. That special ending is also an -s, and the place where it is added is in the present-tense singular with the subject pronouns he, she, it and with any singular noun that could replace any of these pronouns

  • Los verbos en inglés no distinguen singular del plural
  • Se agrega “s” al verbo, si el pronombre no es he, she o it
  • Los sustantivos denotan número al agregar -s al plural
  • En el pasado, los verbos tenían las mismas terminaciones
