INTRODUCCIN
FELICIDADES
Por qu felicitarte?: Por decidirte a estudiar. Por estar con nosotros. Por ser parte
actuante de los cambios de nuestra escuela.
Precisamente en atencin a esos cambios que representa LA REFORMA CURRICULAR
DEL NIVEL MEDIO SUPERIOR, nos hemos dado a la tarea de reelaborar un paquete
didctico que te permitir transitar por la asignatura de INGLS con ms herramientas,
y de una manera sencilla y clara.
Debes saber que el ingls es una lengua considerada como universal, que actualmente
se utiliza en casi todos los pases del mundo porque determina la comunicacin en los
mbitos social, cientfico, tecnolgico, econmico, deportivo, etc.
Ante este fenmeno nuestro pas no se excluye, por el contrario, nuestra situacin
geogrfica nos provoca la imperiosa necesidad de incorporar a nuestros conocimientos
el idioma ingls; aunado a lo anterior debemos de reconocer que esta modernidad
cientfica y sobretodo tecnolgica que las herramientas fundamentales las representa
precisamente el INGLS Y LA INFORMTICA.
Este momento tmalo como la oportunidad de tu vida para conectarte con el idioma
ingls, quizs sea tu primer encuentro o tal vez sea el espacio de reafirmacin de tus
conocimientos previos, aceptando que el comn denominador del estudiante del CBTis
es la voluntad y la afrontacin de retos.
Dentro de ese orden de ideas de novedades que implica esta Reforma, se haya la
intencin de propiciar el desarrollo de las cuatro habilidades del idioma ingls: Lectura
(Reading), Pronunciacin (Speaking), Escritura (Writing) y Comprensin Auditiva
(Listening), a diferencia del anterior donde solo se precisaba que el estudiante
desarrollara la comprensin de las lecturas.
Para desarrollar el contenido programtico de esta asignatura se ha tenido a bien
disear el presente material que contiene una serie de actividades clasificadas en
unidades, sugeridas para el facilitador y el estudiante.

1.1 ANEXO 1. READING COMPREHENSION

FEEDING
Nombre: _________________________________________________________________________
Grado y Grupo:______________ Fecha de aplicacin:_________________________
Most animals use more than one species as food. Therefore, the term food web is a
better description of food relationship than the term food chain. A food web is a
complex feeding systems that contains several food chains. For example, mice, rabbits
and deer eat plants. Owls eat meat and rabbits. Mountain lion eats rabbits and deer.
These five species are parts of food chains that together form a food web.
The first link in a food chain is always a green plant. Only organisms with chlorophyll,
such as green plants, can make food. For example, the first link in the aquatic chains is
algae. Most algae are microscopic green plants that produce food by photosynthesis. In
photosynthesis, energy from sunlight converts carbon dioxide and water to sugar. Tiny
fish in lakes, streams and oceans eat algae. In turn, these tiny fishes are eaten by larger
fish. These larger fish are eaten by still larger fish. The food supply for fish is made by
algae. This food is then passed through the food chains as one animal eats another.
Organisms may be divided into three groups based on how they obtain food. These
groups are producer, decomposer and consumer. Organisms containing chlorophyll are
producers. Thus, green plants are producers. Animals that eat other animals and plants
are consumers. Microbes, one-celled organisms that cause the decay of the dead
animals and plants are decomposers. Since, decomposers cannot make their own food,
they are also consumers.
The difficult words in this passage are web (network), aquatic (water living), algae (tiny
plants which grow in water) and photosynthesis (process by which plant leaves
produce food in the presence of sunlight).
The main purpose of this passage is to

(A) determine which food chain is the most efficient
(B) describe the food network among plants and animals
(C) explain the process of photosynthesis in green plants
(D) appeal to conservationists to protect endangered plant species
According to the author, what is the food web?

(A) A complicated system of several food chains
(B) A society that distributes food
(C) The relationship of one green plant to another
(D) The spiders use to catch food
As used in last sentence of the second paragraph, the word passed could best be
replaced by which of the following?
(A) moved
Ingls II 5
48
(B) approved
(C) attempted
(D) relinquished
The author divides the organisms according to

(A) how they use energy
(B) how they obtain food
(C) how much energy they require in order to move
(D) whether they live on the land or in the sea
Which of the following organisms could not be a consumer as described in the

passage?
(A) A microbe
(B) A rabbit
(C) A tree
(D) A fish
Which of the following organisms could not be a consumer as described in the

passage?
(A) A microbe
(B) A rabbit
(C) A tree
(D) A fish

1.3 WAS / WERE + Ving
El pasado continuo se forma con el pasado simple del auxiliar to be y el participio de
presente del verbo que se conjuga.
Persona + to be en pasado + accin en presente con ing
I was working
you were working
he/she/it was working
we were working
you were working
they were working.
Las formas negativas se construyen situando not entre el auxiliar y el participio de
presente.
I was not working, you were not working.....
Las formas interrogativas se construyen invirtiendo el orden del sujeto y el auxiliar.
Was I working? , were you working?
Para las interrogativas negativas se invierte el orden del sujeto y el auxiliar y se sita
not entre el sujeto y el participio de presente.
Was I not working? , were you not working? , ......
El pasado continuo se emplea:
1) Con referencia a acciones pasadas que se desarrollaron durante un perodo de
tiempo cuyos lmites se desconocen o se consideran irrelevantes. Cuando se desea
poner nfasis en el hecho de que dos acciones se desarrollaban a la vez, entonces se
emplean dos pasados continuos.
I was reading while he was writing.
Cuando se requiere contrastar el aspecto durativo de una accin frente al instantneo
de otra, se usa un pasado continuo y un pasado simple.
I was watching T.V. when the phone rang.
2) Con referencia a acciones pasadas que se desarrolaron gradualmente.
Soldiers were pouring into the area from all sides (Los soldados avanzaban ...)
3) Con referencia a acciones que no llegaron a realizarse o completarse o de las cuales
desconocemos el resultado.
I was going to tell them, but I forgot (Iba a decrselo pero se me olvid)
Ingls II 15
48
He was going to book the rooms
4) Como en el caso del presente continuo con always, el uso del pasado continuo con
dicho adverbio implica un sentimiento de enfado o disgusto por parte de quien alude a
unas acciones pasadas que se repetan con excesiva frecuencia.
He was always borrowing something from us.

1.4 WHEN & WHILE
1.4.1 WHEN
WHEN + clusula relaciona una actividad que ocurre ligeramente antes o al mismo
tiempo que la actividad en la clusula principal. La clusula siguiente cuando puede
expresar (1) una interrupcin corta, o (2) una respuesta a la actividad en la primera
clusula. "X ocurre, resultados Y". Tpicamente, el verbo en la clusula when no es
progresivo y expresa una actividad con una duracin ms corta.

When you called, he was holding his newborn baby.
IN SEQUENCEIMMEDIATELY AFTER
When you called, he picked up his phone.

WHILE + Clusula relaciona una actividad que ocurre al mismo tiempo que

principal.
SAME TIMESOMETIME DURING THE TIME

Ingls II 19
48
SAME TIMEDURING THE TIME
While he was talking, his baby slept.
WHEN y WHILE son preposiciones "temporales" que son complementadas (completadas)

por una clusula relacionada con el tiempo. (Huddleston, et al., 700) Cuando y mientras,
junto con varios otros adverbios, fueron reanalizados (2002) como preposiciones. Al mismo
tiempo, los complementos que podran seguir una preposicin se ampliaron para incluir: un
sustantivo, frase nominal, gerundio, infinitivo, clusula y ms. Vea los complementos
preposicionales. En efecto, tenemos una clusula dentro de una frase preposicional! l
estaba sosteniendo a su beb [PP mientras [Cls que usted estaba hablando.]]
When has four meanings:
1. interruptionHe was holding his newborn baby when you called. ("called"
["rang up"] short duration [punctual verb] )
2. same timeHe was holding his newborn baby when (or while) he was talking on
the phone. ("was talking" duration [process verb])
3. immediately afterWhen you called, he picked up his phone. ("called" and
"picked up"short duration [punctual verbs])
4. anytime / wheneverWhen he has a question, he calls the doctor. (cause effect)
While has two meanings:
1. same timeHe was holding his newborn baby while (or when) he was talking on
the phone. (was talking duration [process verb])
2. contrastWhile some fathers are uncomfortable holding newborns, he isn't
awkward at all. "though" "whereas"
A verb may carry a meaning that expresses:
1. duration (process) such as talk, walk, eat, sleep, cook, study. (nonprogressive
form)
2. short duration (punctual) such as bark, jump, clap, sneeze, gulp, begin,
end. (nonprogressive form)
The tense of the verb may express:
1. duration (process) He has been calling you all day. That dog is still barking.
(progressive form)
2. short duration (punctual) He called. That dog barked. (nonprogressive form)

TURN OFF TV, TURN ON A HEALTHIER LIFESTYLE
Nombre:__________________________________________________________________________
The problem: Childhood obesity is now epidemic in the US. One in ten children is obese
and one in five is overweight. Later in life, these children risk suffering from obesitys
attendant diseases including diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, and arthritis.
Already, more than one in four adults in the US are obese. With its accompanying health
risks, obesity causes an estimated 300,000 premature deaths each year. It is now the
number two preventable cause of death in the United States, behind smoking.
The solution: Turning off the TV is a great way to improve the health of you and your
family. There are two keys to being healthy exercise and diet. Watching less TV can help
you with both of these. Thats why, at the kickoff of TVTurnoff Week 2001, US Surgeon
General Dr. David Satcher said, We are raising the most overweight generation of
youngsters in American history...The message this week is about saving lives.
Exercise More: Dont have time to exercise? You are not alone. Americans, by and large,
do not get enough physical exercise. According to the 1996 Surgeon Generals Report on
Physical Activity and Health, 60 percent of Americans do not get enough physical exercise
to stay healthy and 25 percent engage in no physical activity whatsoever. Yet many of us
have more time than we think. Children in the US average almost three hours of television
each day, and adults average over four hours. Cutting back on television is a great way to
find the time to play outside, take a walk, or pick up a new sport.
According to Dr. William Dietz, Director of the Division of Nutrition and Physical Activity
at the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), The easiest way to reduce inactivity is to turn
off the TV set. Almost anything else uses more energy than watching TV. There is no
waking activity that we do that burns fewer calories than watching TV - a body in front of
the tube is a body at rest.
Eat Better: Not only does watching television keep you sitting still for long periods of time,
but it also encourages an unhealthy diet. TV ads push a diet exactly the opposite of what
doctors recommend. One study documented 202 ads for junk food such as sugared
cereals, candy, and chips during four hours of Saturday morning cartoons. That amounts
to more than eight commercials for unhealthy foods during every 10 minutes of airtime.
The high-fat, high-sugar, highsalt diet promoted by commercials is simply not healthy!
Worse yet, research shows that the more television children watch, the more likely they
are to snack between meals, consume foods advertised on TV, and attempt to influence
their parents food purchases. For instance, a recent study at Tufts University found that
families who had their television sets on during mealtimes consumed more processed
meats, salt, soda, and quick-preparation foods and fewer fruits and vegetables.
Ingls II 23
Turning it off helps keep the weight off! A recent study by Stanford University Professor
Thomas Robinson shows that turning off the television does help keep kids healthier. By
working with two groups of grammar school students, Robinson studied the effect of
teaching children to watch less television. The TV-less curricula included 18 lessons and
a 10-day TV-Turnoff. Seven months later, the children who watched less television gained
an average of two pounds less and the average circumference of their waists was nearly
an inch smaller than those who did not.
Take Action: Because children are influenced by what their parents do, it is important that
whatever effort you make to exercise more, eat better, or watch less TV is done as a family.
In this supporting context, turning off the TV becomes a great family endeavor, a way to
bond and spend time together. Start with our TV-Turnoff Tips and then be sure to turn
on life.

Grammatical Rules (Reglas gramaticales)
Form (Forma)
Para formar el pasado simple con verbos regulares, usamos el infinitivo y aadimos la
terminacin -ed. La forma es la misma para todas las personas (I, you, he, she, it, we,
they).
Ejemplos:
want wanted
learn learned
stay stayed
walk walked
show showed
Excepciones:
1. Para verbos que terminan en una e, slo aadimos -d.
Ejemplos:
change changed
believe believed
Ingls II 26
2. Si el verbo termina en una vocal corta y una consonante (excepto y o w), doblamos
la consonante final.
Ejemplos:
stop stopped
commit committed
3. Con verbos que terminan en una consonante y una y, se cambia la y por una i.
Ejemplos:
study studied
try tried
Nota: Hay muchos verbos irregulares en ingls. Desafortunadamente, no hay una norma
establecida para formarlos. Ver una lista de los verbos irregulares aqu. Acontinuacin

Verb Past simple

Pronunciation (Pronunciacin)
Pronunciamos la terminacin -ed de forma diferente dependiendo de la letra que va al

final del infinitivo. En general la e es muda.
1. Con los infinitivos que terminan en p, f, k o s (consonantes sordas, excepto t)

pronunciamos la terminacin -ed como una t.
Ingls II 27
Ejemplos:
looked [lukt]
kissed [kisst]
2. Con los infinitivos que terminan en b, g, l, m, n, v, z (consonantes sonoras,

excepto d) o una vocal, pronunciamos slo la d.

Ingls II 53
HUMAN BODY
Nombre:__________________________________________________________________________
Your heart is really a muscle. It's located a little to the left of the middle of your chest, and
it's about the size of your fist. There are lots of muscles all over your body - in your arms, in
your legs, in your back, even in your behind. But this muscle is special because of what it
does - the heart sends blood around your body. The blood provides your body with the
oxygen and nutrients it needs. It also carries away the waste that your body has to get rid of.
Your heart is sort of like a pump, or two pumps in one. The right side of your heart receives
blood from the body and pumps it to the lungs. The left side of the heart does the exact
opposite: it receives blood from the lungs and pumps it out to the body. By the time you're
grown up, your heart will be beating (pumping) about 70 times a minute.
How does the heart beat? Before each beat, your heart fills with blood. Then it contracts to
squirt the blood along. When something contracts, it squeezes tighter - try squeezing your
hand into a fist. That's sort of like what your heart does so it can squirt out the blood. Your
heart does this all day and all night, all the time. Every day, an adult heart pumps 2,000
gallons (7,500 liters) of recycled blood by filling and contracting. The heart is one tough
worker!
1. Where is your heart located?

2. Where else can you find muscles in your body besides the heart?

3. Why do we need a heart?

4. Which organ(s) directly works with the heart?

3.6 OBJECT PRONOUNS

Pronombres Pronombres
Sujetos Objetos
I me
you you
he him
she her
it it
they them
we us
La posicin de los pronombres de objeto directo e indirecto

1. Estos pronombres siempre se ubican ANTES del verbo conjugado cuando hay slo
un verbo en la oracin.
Objeto directo
Veo a la chica. La veo.
I see the girl. I see her.
El chico compra el coche. Lo compra el chico. (El chico lo compra)
The boy buys the car. He buys it.
Objeto indrecto
Le dije la verdad a mi hermano. Le dije la verdad.
I told my brother the truth. I told him the truth.
La instructora les asign la tarea a los estudiantes ayer.
The instructor assigned the homework to the students yesterday.
La instructora les asign la tarea ayer.
The instructor assigned the homework to them yesterday.
Notice that in the first sentence the indirect object pronoun les is included along with the
actual indirect object los estudiantes. This is an idiosyncrasy of Spanish grammar because
the indirect object pronoun is absolutely redundant. This is the case in ALL Spanish
sentences in which the indirect object is overtly expressed: you MUST include the indirect
object pronoun (me, te, le, etc.) in all sentences that have an indirect object, but may also
name the indirect object using a (a m, a los profesores, etc.). You may remember this with
respect to GUSTAR-like constructions (which are also indirect object constructions).
Ingls II 65
Les gusta el juego a los nios. Les gusta el juego.

Cuando hay un verbo conjugado ms un infinitivo en una oracin, hay dos lugares donde se
puede ubicar los pronombres.
It is important to note that when a sentence contains a conjugated verb before an infinitive
(verb phrase) ...
Los chicos quieren comprar las entradas.
The boys want to buy the tickets.
Necesito leer el libro.
I need to read the book.
Debes buscar la respuesta.
You should look for the answer.
... the directo object pronoun can be positioned BEFORE the conjugated verb or AFTER and
CONNECTED TO the infinitive.
Los chicos las quieren comprar. OR Los chicos quieren comprarlas.
Lo necesito leer. OR Necesito leerlo.
La debes buscar OR Debes buscarla.
The same is true of indirect object constructions ...

Ella te quiere dar el dinero maana. OR Ella quiere darte el dinero maana.
She wants to give you the money tomorrow.
Les voy a ensear el espaol a mis hijos. OR Voy a ensearles el espaol a mis
hijos.
I am going to teach my children Spanish.
El orden de los pronombres de objeto directo e indirecto cuando se combinan
The next logical question is, What do you do when you want to use a direct object pronoun
AND an indirect object pronoun in the same sentence?
Ingls II 66
1. El pronombre de objeto indirecto SIEMPRE se ubica ANTES del pronombre de objeto

directo.
Mi mam me mand un email la semana pasada.
My mother sent me an email last week.
Mi mam me lo mand la semana pasada.
My mother sent it to me last week.
This is also true when the sentence contains a verb phrase (conjugated verb + infinitve):
Ella te quiere dar el dinero maana. OR Ella quiere darte el dinero maana.
She wants to give you the money tomorrow.
Ella te lo quiere dar maana. OR Ella quiere drtelo maana.
