Hello Students,
Reflexive
pronouns turn the attention of a reader or a listener back onto the
subject of sentence. These pronouns are absolutely essential when
talking about yourself or other people.
There's a new YouTube video that explains what reflexive pronouns look like, and Red Level Lesson Twenty (today's lesson!) provides more explanations and practice.
Do you know how to choose the correct reflexive pronoun? Try this exercise, available only to subscribers to my website:
Choose the correct reflexive pronoun:
1. I cut __________.
2. She likes to look at __________ in the mirror.
3. The students aren't able to help __________.
4. The clock radio turns __________ off in the morning.
5. John is sitting all by __________.
6. We fixed __________ something to eat.
7. Be careful! You might hurt __________. (one person)
8. Maria's father taught __________ how to speak English.
9. Those girls shouldn't walk by __________ late at night.
10. Mike owns his own business. He
works for _________.
NEW STUFF:
+ There's a new reading exercise for the Red Level. Click on the link for Red Level Reading Exercise #28, Do you need to get a driver's license?
+ The word of the day for today is "buddy." This is a popular word to use when talking about friends.
I'm
updating all of the audio recordings on the website. If a lesson or
page is missing an audio recording and you need it immediately, just email me and I'll add in new audio.
That's all for now.
Have yourself a nice day!
