3. TIEMPOS VERBALES
•Verb (verbo): A verb is one of the main parts of a
sentence. In fact, you can’t have a sentence or a
question without a verb! The verb signals an action,
an occurrence, or a state of being.
(El verbo es una de las principales partes de la
oración. De hecho no puede haber una oración o
pregunta sin un verbo.. El verbo indica una acción,
una ocurrencia o un estado del ser.)
4. •Verbs have conjugations and tenses.
(poseen conjugaciones y tiempos.)
•Present, Past and Future are verbal
tenses.
Presente, Pasado y Futuro son tiempos
verbales.
5. Verbs
IrregularRegular
Past simple and past participle
of regular verbs are formed by
adding –d or –ed to the end of the
verb. If the verb ends in e, add the
letter d to the end, as in move –
moved.
Past simple and past participle
of irregular verbs are not formed
according to regular rules. There are
no easy ways to recognize them,
so each one has to be learnt.
He worked here every day. He bought all the tools

15. Everyone says that we must use less energy !
But how? that is the big question.
Most houses use energy - lots of it. We use energy for heating,
lighting, for running our household appliances - TV's, washing
machines, fridges, and so on. In winter time, most houses use
dozens of kilowatts of electricity every day, or the equivalent in
gas.
16. The house in the photo, on the other hand, uses virtually
nothing: most of the energy that it uses comes straight from
the sun, the wind or the ground. This is an experimental
house at the University of Nottingham, and it could be the
kind of house that most people are living in fifty years from
now.
During the daytime, it is rarely necessary to turn on an
electric light, even in rooms without windows. Sunlight, or
daylight, is "piped" through the house, into each room,
through special high-reflection aluminium tubes. You can see
how well they reflect light, by looking at the reflections of the
faces in the picture!
17. At night, of course, energy is necessary - but most of this
comes from the sun or the wind. The house is fitted with
photovoltaic solar panels that generate electricity during the
daytime, and a wind turbine power generator too; electricity
from these can be used directly, or else stored in batteries,
and used when it is needed.
For heating, the house uses direct solar energy (sunshine
heating water that circulates through a radiator system),
or geothermal energy. This takes low-level heat out of the
ground, and uses a heat-pump to convert it into high-level
heat for use in radiators - the same principle as a refrigerator,
but in reverse.
18. As for water, most daily needs are provided for by the house's
own supply; rainwater I s collected on the roof, filtered, and used
for all toilets, baths and showers.
If, one day, most people in developed countries live in houses like
this one, most of today's pollution will have disappeared, and
global warming may be a problem of the past.

19. If you have been diligently brushing your teeth twice a day and think cavities will
not hit you, think again. Oral health studies indicate that brushing your teeth alone
may not be able to maintain an oral hygiene level that adequately controls the
formation of bacterial plaque on teeth.Plaque, when accumulated, can lead to
development of dental cavities, gum inflammation and related diseases. Plaque is
a generic term describing a sticky film of bacteria that collects on teeth above and
below the gingival margin or gumline.
`When plaque remains in the mouth for as little as one day, calcification or
hardening may occur, leading to tartar formation,' said Dr. Arunee Unsook.
`Brushing your teeth alone cannot adequately remove the plaque in your mouth
because the teeth represent only about 23% of the oral cavity surface,' said Dr.
Arunee, senior manager of scientific and professional affairs with Johnson &
Johnson.
20. Brushing cleans about a quarter of the mouth and does not thoroughly rid
impurities in between teeth and hard-to-reach areas. Several studies in different
countries also show that the vast majority of people are unable to maintain a level
of oral hygiene sufficient to control plaque formation by brushing alone due to
insufficient time or lack of the appropriate technique.
The Malaysian Adults Oral Health Survey last conducted in the year 2000
showed that the general oral health status of adults aged 15 years and above
has improved, largely due to the fluoridation of water supplies. Despite this, there
still exists areas with serious problems and inadequate availability of resources
such as dental treatment, oral hygiene instructions and extraction. Under the
2010 National Oral Health Plan (NOHP), goals have been set with the objectives
of achieving optimum oral health among Malaysians. These goals focus on the
reduction of four oral conditions, two of which are dental caries and periodontal
disease, a gum inflammatory disease that leads to loss of teeth.
Gingivities is an early, reversible form of gum disease resulting from inadequate
plaque removal. Gingivities can lead to periodontities; advanced gum disease,
which if left untreated can result in eventual tooth loss.
21. `Patients can help reduce their risk of developing periodontal disease by
controlling the accumulation of plaque,' said Malaysian Dental Association
president Dr. S. Sivanesan. `This can be accomplished, in part, by adhering to a
daily oral hygiene regimen that includes brushing, flossing and adding an
antiseptic mouth rinse for better plaque control.'
Dr. Sivanesan added that the concept of mouth rinsing as an oral hygiene measure
dates back thousands of years, with the first reference to it as a formal practice
being attributed to Chinese medicine. However, it was only in the 1960s when the
relationship between plaque accumulation and the development of gum
inflammation and diseases was clearly demonstrated that the use of antiseptic
mouthwash was widely introduced. Through clinical trials, it was scientifically
established that the daily use of an effective anti-plaque mouthwash can be a
valuable component of oral hygiene regimens.
He said good bacteria will not really be affected if antiseptic mouthwash is used in
the therapeutic way recommended.
`Basically, we advocate brushing, flossing and rinsing for good oral health care.
Our mouth and its health is a complex thing that affects the whole body, not just
our mouth,' Dr. Sivanesan said. He also stressed that rinsing our mouth after every
meal is very important.
