 Week 5

We revised a little about Machu Picchu

Un sitio de Patrimonio de la humanidad

Un lugar deshabitado – an abandoned place

Los inca – the incas

 

We then studied page 9 and the text Vivir sin Petróleo

Objetos cotidianos – everyday objects

Un catedrático – un profesor de la universidad

Una fuente de energía – a source of energy

Un tesoro – a treasure

La contaminación acústica – noise pollution

Una cascada – a waterfall

Para ahorrar desplazamientos – to save on travel

Al final – eventually (“eventualmente” is a false friend).

 

We then discussed if we thought certain things will happen.

Es necesario ofrecer más subvenciones – grants

La energía renovable – renewable energy

Los paneles solares – solar panels

 

We looked at how to form the future

We just add endings to the infinitive

é / ás / á / emos / éis / án

It is important to stress the accented syllable.

There are some irregular verbs

Tener – tendré….etc

Haber -  ………….habrá…. (only one form)

Poder – podré….

Poner – pondré…

Salir – saldré …

Venir – vendré….

Hacer – hare….

 

For homework we have to complete exercise 5 on p.10
