Step Ⅲ Grammar

First ask the students to find out the examples of the past participle as the adverbial in the play:

Sample sentences:

1. An expert in phonetics, convinced that the quality of a person's English decides his/her position in society. P28

2. But, sir, (proudly) once educated to speak properly, that girl could pass herself off in three months as a duchess at an ambassador's garden party. P30

Explanation:

T: The past participle as the adverbial is a very important grammar, and it can indicate time, condition, reason, and way. We can add when / while / if or other conjunctions before the past participle in order to make the meaning more clearly. For example:

Show the following.

If bitten by a snake, you should send for help and don't walk.

The room, although supposed to be kept locked, was often left open.
