Warm-up

Before we look back at unit 9, and at the whole course:

  1. How many English teachers have you had? Were all of them very different, or were some of them alike?
  2. Which English word is so hard to say that you try not to use it?
  3. When you finish a course, do you like to take a break, or do you start the next one right away?

44when, as soon as, before, after, until + the present for the futureWe'll start dinner as soon as your uncle gets here.
Five things to watch: a singular noun after every and each (every days), and every of → each of / every one of; neither is already negative (Neither of them doesn't…); such goes with a noun, so with an adjective alone (such tired, so a long day); no a with uncountable nouns (such a good news); no will after when, as soon as, before, after and until (when I will arrive).
