Слайд 41. We are only five on our team.

rather to work from home than come to the office.

Exercise 1. Correct the mistakes

The aim: To explain students various mistakes through rules.

1. We are only five on our team.2. I would rather to work from home than come

Слайд 5Answers and Explanations
1. We are only five There are five

of us on our team.
We say there are five of

us, there are seven of them, there are three of you, etc. We don’t normally say We are five, they are seven, etc.

2. I would rather to work from home than come to the office.

After rather, we use the base form of the verb (I’d rather go/work/eat/see, etc.).

3. We’re used to have having a lot of work to do, so meeting the deadline won’t be a problem.
To talk about something that someone is accustomed to doing, we use the following formula:
Subject + verb to be + used to + gerund

Answers and Explanations1. We are only five There are five of us on our team.We say there

Слайд 64. My client sent me an email but I haven’t

replied her yet.

We use reply without an object or followed

by “to” + what/who we are replying to.

Examples:
I received an invitation from John, but I haven’t replied yet.
I received an invitation from John, but I haven’t replied him yet.

Note that the same rule applies to the verb respond.

5. Maybe I’m going to I might finish this today.

We don’t use Maybe + subject + I’m going to to communicate a future possibility. Instead, we use might and the base form of the verb.

Note that we can also use Maybe +subject + will + base form to communicate a future possibility that the speaker is thinking about at the moment of speaking. Maybe I’ll watch the game tonight, for example.

4. My client sent me an email but I haven’t replied her yet.We use reply without an
