Chapter 1 : Some, Any, Much, Many, A lot of, and A few
Difference between some and any :
- Some is generally used in positive sentences. Any is generally used in negative sentences.

Any :
Some
Positive sentences : 'I have some friends.'
Offering : 'Would you like some milk?'
Request : 'Can I borrow some money?'
Any
Negative sentences: ‘I don't have any friends.'

Questions: 'Is
there any sugar?'
· Difference between Much and Many :
- Much is used for uncountable nouns. Many is used for countable nouns.
- The word much is used with a singular noun. The word many is used with a plural noun.
- Much is awkward in affirmative sentences, if not preceded by ‘so’, ‘too’, or ‘as’. Many can be used extensively in affirmative sentence.

Many :
Much
Singular noun : ‘How much money does one man need?'
Uncountable nouns : ‘How much salt is there in this recipe?’

- A lot of may be used as singular pronouns. A few are used with plural nouns.
- A lot of : ‘I have a lot of friends who always stand by me.'
- A few : ‘She has a few speeding tickets, so his insurance rate is higher than mine.’

Chapter 5 : Indefinite Pronoun (some-, any-, no-) and Reflexive Pronoun.
Use of indefinite pronoun some-, any-, no-
Indefinite pronouns do not refer to a specific person, place, or
thing. In English, there is a particular group of indefinite pronouns formed
with a quantifier or distributive preceeded by any, some, every and no.
Person
|
Place
|
Thing
|
|
All
|
everyone
everybody |
everywhere
|
everything
|
Part (positive)
|
someone
somebody |
somewhere
|
something
|
Part (negative)
|
anyone
anybody |
anywhere
|
anything
|
None
|
no one
nobody |
nowhere
|
nothing
|
Indefinite pronouns with some and any are used to describe indefinite and incomplete quantities in the same way that some and any are used alone.
Indefinite pronouns are placed in
the same location as a noun would go in the sentence.
Noun
|
Indefinite pronoun
|
I would like to go to Paris
this summer.
|
I would like to go somewhere
this summer.
|
Jim gave me this book.
|
Someone gave me this book.
|
I won't tell your secret to Sam.
|
I won't tell your secret to anyone.
|
I bought my school supplies
at the mall.
|
I bought everything at
the mall.
|
· Reflexive Pronoun
A reflexive
pronoun indicates that the person who is realizing the action of the verb is
also the recipient of the action. While this might seem strange at first
glance, the following examples of reflexive pronouns and the accompanying list
of reflexive pronouns will help you gain thorough understanding. In fact, you
will probably notice that you yourself use reflexive pronouns frequently when
speaking or writing.
Examples of Reflexive Pronouns :
-
Someone is sleeping in my bed.
-
No one is
sleeping in my bed.
-
He saw something in
the garden
-
There is nothing to
eat.
Any and the indefinite pronouns
formed with it can also be used in affirmative sentences with a meaning that is
close to every: whichever person, whichever
place, whichever thing, etc. Examples:
-
They can choose anything
from the menu.
-
You may invite anybody
you want to your birthday party.
-
We can go anywhere you'd
like this summer.
Negative
sentences :
Negative
sentences can only be formed with the indefinite pronouns that include any. Examples :
-
I don't have anything
to eat.
-
She didn't go anywhere
last week.
-
I can't find anyone
to come with me.
Many negative
sentences that include an indefinite pronoun with any
can be turned into affirmative sentences with a negative meaning by using an
indefinite pronoun with no. However,
there is a change in meaning with this transformation: the sentence that
includes an indefinite pronoun with no is stronger,
and can imply emotional content such as definsiveness, hopelessness, anger,
etc.
Examples :
-
I don't know anything
about it. = Neutral
-
I know nothing about
it. = Defensive
-
I have nobody to
talk to. = Hopeless
-
There was nothing we
could do. = Defensive/Angry
Negative
questions :
Indefinite
pronouns with every, some,
and any can be used to form negative
questions. These questions can usually be answered with a "yes" or a
"no". Pronouns formed with any and every are used to form true
questions, while those with some generally
imply a question to which we already know or suspect the answer. Examples :
-
Is there anything to
eat?
-
Did you go anywhere
last night?
-
Is everyone
here?
These questions can
be turned in to false or rhetorical questions by making them negative. The
speaker, when posing a question of this type, is expecting an answer of
"no". Examples :
-
Isn't there anything to eat?
-
Didn't you go anywhere last night?
-
Isn't everyone
here?
-
Haven't you
looked everywhere?
Some and pronouns formed with it is
only used in questions to which we think we already know the answer, or
questions which are not true questions (invitations, requests, etc.). Examples
:
-
Have you lost something?
-
Are you going somewhere?
-
Could somebody help me, please?
These
questions can be made even more definite if they are made negative. In this
case, the speaker is absolutely certain he will receive the answer
"Yes".
Examples :
-
Aren't you looking for someone?
-
Haven't you lost something?
-
Aren't you going somewhere?
Chapter 6 : Have Something Done and Causative Have
· Have Something Done.
Have
something done is used to show that something is done for us, we do not do it
ourselves. What someone does for us. We use have + object + -ed form when we
talk about someone doing something for us which we ask or instruct them to do.
It emphasises the process/action rather than who performs it:
We’re having the house painted next week. (We are not going to
paint the house ourselves. Someone else will paint it. The emphasis is on the
fact that the house is being painted rather than who is doing it.
Warning : This pattern is not the same as the present perfect or past perfect.
Compare
I had
my hair cut.
|
Someone cut my hair.
|
I’ve cut
my hair.
I’d cut
my hair.
|
I cut my own hair.
|
We can also use have
+ object + -ed form when something bad happens, especially when someone
is affected by an action which they did not cause:
-
They’ve had their car
stolen. (‘They’ are affected by the action of the car being stolen but they did
not cause this to happen.)
-
Hundreds of people had their
homes destroyed by the hurricane. (Hundreds of people were affected by the hurricane,
which they did not cause.)
Causative Have
Form : [have +
person + verb]
Use : This
construction means "to give someone the responsibility to do
something."
Examples:
a) Dr. Smith had his nurse take
the patient's temperature.
b) Please have your secretary fax me the information.
c) I had the mechanic check the brakes.
Chapter 7 : Determiner
1.
The determiners are used in every case to clarify the noun.
2.
Adjectives, unlike determiners, cannot have corresponding pronouns.
3.
Determiners may be used to demonstrate or define something or someone.
4.
Determiners may state the differences between nouns.
Each,
every, all, little and few is include on quantifiers. Quantifiers are commonly
used before either countable or uncountable nouns.
Examples :
Little
knowledge is a dangerous thing.
Every child needs love and care.
You need to read all of the book
Chapter 8 : Question tag
Question
tags are used in conversation to get a (positive) reaction from the person you
are talking to. That’s
not really difficult, is it? ;o)
Form
- Positive main clause = Negative question tag
- Negative main clause = Positive question tag
- He's a student, isn't he?
- You haven't met him, have you?
Chapter 9 : So and Such, Third Conditional
So and Such
So is used before an
adjective or an adverb: so big – so beautifully designed
Such is followed by a or an and is used before an adjective + a singular noun: such a long
time – such an incredible story
Such is used alone without
the indefinite article a/an
before plural nouns and abstract nouns such as information, advice, kindness,
interest etc.
Such fools – such beautiful furniture – such generosity
Examples :
Such fools – such beautiful furniture – such generosity
Examples :
a.
This book is so interesting.
This is such an interesting book.
Such interesting books are worth having.
This is such an interesting book.
Such interesting books are worth having.
b.
I was amazed that the crowd was so
big.
I was amazed that there was such a big crowd.
I was amazed that there was such a big crowd.
c.
The situation was so complicated.
It was such a complicated situation.
It was such a complicated situation.
d.
She is so intelligent.
She is such an intelligent person.
Use of Third Conditional
The third conditional is used to talk about 'impossible'
conditions. They are impossible because they happened in the past and we cannot
change them.
It is formed in the following way:
If + past perfect, would have + past
participle
Example : "If I
had known you were going to the cinema, I would have gone too."
Or the structure can be reversed:
Would have + past participle + if + past
perfect
Example : "I would
have gone too If I had known you were going to the cinema."
Also note: Would can be replaced by could or might.
Also note: Would can be replaced by could or might.

Bab 13 : Direct and Indirect in interrogative form : Present Simple, Simple Past, Present Perfect, Present continuous, Future and Future Continuous.
· Direct and Indirect Speech in interrogative.
For
changing interrogative (question) sentence into indirect speech we have to observe the nature of question and
then change it into indirect speech according to it rules for indirect speech.
A question can be of two types. One type which can be answered in only YES or
NO and other type which needs a little bit explanation for its answer and
cannot be answered in only YES or NO.
Example :
-
Do you like music? (It can be answered in YES
or NO)
-
How are you? (It cannot be answered in YES or
NO but it needs a little bit explanation i.e, I am fine.)
a.
Questions which can be answered in YES/NO.
To change questions (which can be answered
in yes or no) into indirect speech, word “if” or “whether” is used before the
question in indirect speech. Rules for change in tense of question sentences
are same as for change in normal tenses in indirect
speech but sentence will not start with the auxiliary verb of the tense. The
word “that” is not used between reporting verb and reported speech as
conjunction in indirect speech for question sentence. Question
mark is not used in indirect speech.
Examples :
v
Direct speech: He said to me, “do you like music?”
Indirect Speech:
He
asked me if I liked music. (Not, did I like music)
Or Indirect Speech: He asked me whether I liked music.
v
Direct speech: She said, “Will he participate
in the quiz competition?”
Indirect Speech: She asked me if he would participate
in quiz competition.
v

Indirect Speech: I asked him if he was feeling well.
v
Direct speech: They said to me, “did u go to school?”
Indirect Speech:
They
asked me if I had gone to school.
v
Direct speech: He said to me, “Have you taken the breakfast?”
Indirect Speech: He asked me if I had taken the
breakfast
b.
Question which cannot be answered in YES/NO.
To change such questions into indirect
speech, the words “if” or “whether” is not used. The tense of the question is
changed according to the rules for change in normal tenses in indirect speech
but sentence will not start with the auxiliary verb of the tense. The word
“that” is not used between reporting verb and reported speech as conjunction,
in indirect speech for question sentence. Question mark is not used in indirect
speech.
Example :
Example :
v
Direct speech: He said to me, “how are you?”
Indirect speech: He asked me how I was. (Not, how was
I)

name?”
