Laughter is the best medicine! So, how about you tell us a joke?

Do you think you are a funny person?

I am hilarious!

Yeah, but not everyone gets my humour

Well, the jokes work in my head.

Nah, but I love laughing at other people's jokes

Should we be able to make jokes about anything? Why/why not?

What is the most funny to you?

A comedy movie like Bad Trip

A stand-up comedy show like Kevin Hart's

A theatre show like Jochem Myjer's

Real-life tomfoolery like Jackass

Browsing Youtube for Tiktok or other videos

Speaking ex. 1

If you want to practise speaking you can do exercise 1 with a partner. Make sure you speak for one minute, so time yourselves.

Reading ex. 2-5

You will practice scanning and guessing the meaning of words from the context with these exercises. 

For exercise 5, make sure you translate any of the highlighted words you are unfamiliar with and to write down their Dutch meaning. You can also check Wordlist 4.

Check your answers afterwards. 

Grammar extra: using 'rather'

1. Used as an adverb (in the same way as quite) 
   He worked rather hard today   /    He worked quite hard today  
2. Used with would ( means “prefer”):
   I would rather have some tea.  /   I have already had many cups of coffee today. 
3. Used as a prepositional phrase to contrast two things or situations:
   The teacher spoke to the entire class rather than to a few individuals about the dangers of using drugs. 
4. Used as an adverb immediately before a verb of thought or feeling, to express an opinion politely:
   I rather like your hair not dyed all colours of the rainbow.

The grammar of phrasal verbs

Have a look at page 11 in your book for basic information about phrasal verbs.

Consists of a main verb + particle 

A particle is an adverb (bijwoord) or preposition (voorzetsel).

 

You can use it transitively and intransitively. 

Transitively means that there is an object in the sentence and intransitively means that there isn’t an object in the sentence. Have a look:  

• The man passed the drinks around. (no object so intransitively)
• The man passed out and hit his head on the pavement (object = the pavement so transitively)

The grammar of phrasal verbs

When you use it intransitively you cannot separate the particle and the main verb.

• It turned out that the man had stolen €1m. 

When the particle is an adverb, transitive phrasal verbs can be separated or followed by a noun as object. They are always separated when a pronoun is the object. 

• He put down the vase carefully 
• He put the vase down carefully  (noun= the vase)
• He put it down carefully  (it=pronoun )

The grammar of phrasal verbs

When the particle is a preposition, you cannot separate the main verb and the particle. 

The woman shooed away the noisy children who were playing in front of her house. 

When it is a three-part phrasal verb you can also not separate the main verb and the particle. 

They were looking out for a new way to make money. (to look out for)

Can you separate the phrasal verb in:
I always run into Molly at the mall.

1. yes
2. no

Can you separate the phrasal verb in:
The children write down the correct answers.

1. yes
2. no

Can you separate the phrasal verb in:
Everybody is looking forward to the autumn break.

1. yes
2. no

Is this sentence correct?:
He put down it on the table.

1. yes
2. no

Any questions?

Now do exercises 1-6

three-part phrasal verbs are, for example:

catch up on

come up with

keep up with

live up to

put up with
