TOEIC200, 2nd assignment (UoT)
If you have not done the first exercise about imperative sentences, do that first.
INSTRUCTION:
Now you have learned about descriptive adjectives (adjectives to modify a noun or a subject). We use an adjective before a noun or after the verb ‘BE’ to describe something or somebody. Now look at these examples:
1. Adj before a noun: He is a good boy.
2. Adj after ‘Be”: She is beautiful.
Notice that a sentence like “He is a boy” is not as good as “He is a good boy”. You see that the 2nd sentence describe the boy better.
What you have to do is to describe at least 15 objects or people in your house. You can describe a tree, a gold fish, etc. or your father, your mother, etc. Keep in mind that you must use different adjectives to describe different things.
Also, here is the list of opposite adjectives we learned in class:
"opposites - basic adjectives"
ad vs. good | full vs. empty | nervous vs. calm |
beautiful vs. ugly | happy vs. sad | polite vs. rude |
cold vs. hot | hard vs. soft | quiet/ free vs. busy |
dangerous vs. safe | high vs. low | right vs. wrong |
difficult vs. easy | loose vs. tight | strong vs. weak |
dirty vs. clean | loud vs. quiet | thin vs. thick |
early vs. late | minor vs. major | thin vs. fat |
expensive vs. cheap | narrow vs. wide | tiny vs. huge |
fast vs. slow | nasty vs. nice | wet vs. dry |
