You are going to do listening and matching on page 34. Match each of the persons with a thing and a reason. Pay attention to the use of must in the sentences.
Now go to page 130 to read tapescript to find and examine the predicates with must, cut/ the sentence into thought groups, and underline all the useful expressions.
Useful expressions from the conversation

Now let’s talk as they do in the conversation. We are going to talk in imitation of the conversation we have just heard and read.

It must be Carla’s. She loves volleyball.
Whose books are these?
They must be Mary’s. The man is her favorite author.

(Strange events in Bell Tower neighborhood)
Objectives
● To learn to understand and use must, might, could and can’t for making inferences
● To read, write and speak about strange events
Procedures
■Warming up by reading aloud the text to the recording
Studies and practice show that one simple activity — reading aloud — is one of the best ways to learn English. Reading aloud helps develop your language skills. You will use them in school and throughout your lives. So why don’t you go to page 38 to read aloud the text while listening to the recording. Read in groups of thought.
3a Reading and underlining
There’s a newspaper article here on page 38. Now read it to list examples of must, might, could and can’t for making inferences. While reading also try to cut/ the sentence into thought groups, study all the predicates, circle all the linking words and underline all the expressions. That’s grammar study, in deed.
Examples of must, might, could and can’t for making inferences
1. My wife thinks that it could be an animal, but my friends and I think it must be teenagers having fun.
2. They think it might be the wind. I don’t think so!”
3. At first, I thought it might be a dog, but I can’t see a dog and I still hear the noises outside.
4. There must be something visiting the homes in our neighborhood, but what is it?
Make your own sentences using must, might, could and can’t for making inferences.
1. I think that it could be a UFO, but my father and my brother think it must be the air force doing experiments.
2. They think it might be the garbage. I don’t think so!
3. At first, I thought it might be a helicopter, but I can’t see a helicopter and I still hear the noises in the sky.
4. There must be something happening downstairs, but what is it?
Copy the useful expressions in your notebook.
