Escola Andorrana de Batxillerat Department of English Language Name and surname: _______________ Grammar focus. Unit 2: Fashion Victims Class:_______ Date:____________ Word Formation: Extension activity pack Use the word at the end of each gap to form a new word with which to fill the gap. While doing this exercise, look for clues which tell you what kind of word is missing (adjective, noun, verb, adverb). Make sure to take into consideration forms using various prefixes and suffixes, as well as negative forms. Activity 1: We earn our __________ (LIVE) in America today in peaceful __________ (COMPETE) with people all across the Earth. Profound and __________ (POWER) forces are shaking and _________ (MAKE) our world, and the urgent question of our time is whether we can make change our friend and not our enemy. This new world has already __________ (RICH) the lives of millions of Americans who are able to ___________ (COMPETITION) and win in it. But when most people are working harder for less, when others cannot work at all, when the cost of health care devastates families and threatens to __________ (BANK) our enterprises, great and small, when the fear of crime robs law abiding citizens of their __________ (FREE), and when millions of poor children cannot even imagine the lives we are calling them to lead, we have not made change our friend. Activity 2: `It is simply this. That Space, as our ___________ (MATH) have it, is spoken of as having three dimensions, which one may call __________ (LONG), Breadth, and ___________ (THICK), and is always definable by __________ (REFER) to three planes, each at right angles to the others. But some philosophical people have been asking why THREE dimensions __________ (PARTICULAR) - why not another direction at right angles to the other three?--and have even tried to construct a Four-Dimension geometry. Professor Simon Newcomb was expounding this to the New York Mathematical Society only a month or so ago. You know how on a flat surface, which has only two dimensions, we can represent a figure of a three __________ (DIMENSION) solid, and __________ (SIMILAR) they think that by models of thee dimensions they could represent one of four--if they could master the __________ (PERCEIVE) of the thing. See?' Activity 3: In the centre of the room, clamped to an upright easel, stood the full-length portrait of a young man of __________ (ORDINARY) personal beauty, and in front of it, some little __________ (DISTANT) away, was sitting the artist himself, Basil Hallward, whose sudden __________ (APPEAR) some years ago caused, at the time, such public __________ (EXCITE), and gave rise to so many strange conjectures. As the painter looked at the __________ (GRACE) and comely form he had so __________ (SKILL) mirrored in his art, a smile of ___________ (PLEASE) passed across his face, and seemed about to linger there. But he __________ (SUDDEN) started up, and, closing his eyes, placed his fingers upon the lids, as though he sought to __________ (PRISON) within his brain some curious dream from which he feared he might __________ (WAKE). Solution: We earn our livelihood in America today in peaceful competition with people all across the Earth. Profound and powerful forces are shaking and making our world, and the urgent question of our time is whether we can make change our friend and not our enemy. This new world has already enriched the lives of millions of Americans who are able to compete and win in it. But when most people are working harder for less, when others cannot work at all, when the cost of health care devastates families and threatens to bankrupt our enterprises, great and small, when the fear of crime robs law abiding citizens of their freedom and when millions of poor children cannot even imagine the lives we are calling them to lead, we have not made change our friend. `It is simply this. That Space, as our mathematicians have it, is spoken of as having three dimensions, which one may call length, Breadth, and Thickness, and is always definable by reference to three planes, each at right angles to the others. But some philosophical people have been asking why THREE dimensions particularly - why not another direction at right angles to the other three?--and have even tried to construct a Four-Dimension geometry. Professor Simon Newcomb was expounding this to the New York Mathematical Society only a month or so ago. You know how on a flat surface, which has only two dimensions, we can represent a figure of a three dimensional solid, and similarly they think that by models of thee dimensions they could represent one of four--if they could master the perspective of the thing. See?' In the centre of the room, clamped to an upright easel, stood the full-length portrait of a young man of ordinarily personal beauty, and in front of it, some little distance away, was sitting the artist himself, Basil Hallward, whose sudden disappearance some years ago caused, at the time, such public excitement, and gave rise to so many strange conjectures. As the painter looked at the gracious and comely form he had so skillfully mirrored in his art, a smile of _pleasure passed across his face, and seemed about to linger there. But he suddenly started up, and, closing his eyes, placed his fingers upon the lids, as though he sought to imprisoned within his brain some curious dream from which he feared he might awake.
