＊ encouraged)

＊ Granted that he has enough money to buy the house, it doesn't mean he's going to do so.

＊ Told by the teacher, she knew she was wrong. (分词 told 用过去式分词表示被动)

＊ Now you are going to read the text for more examples of the past participles used as the adverbials.

3. Correcting and completing

Now you shall go on to do exercises 2 and 3 on page 33.

First you are to read the 5 sentences and correct any mistakes in them. Check with a partner.

Then read the uncompleted passage and complete it with suitable words, in the form of either the present or past participle.

4. Closing down by putting on a short play

To end this period we are going to put on a short play.

Hamlet and the Heckler (a very short play)

Hamlet: To be or not to be...

Heckler: I knew it. I knew he was going to say that.

Hamlet: that is the question...

Heckler: He's going to say the rest of it, too.

Hamlet (to Heckler): Excuse me, do you mind?

Heckler: I didn't know he was going to say THAT.

Hamlet: I'm just trying do my job here.

Heckler: Yeah, but do you have to do it the same way every time?

Hamlet: Well, this IS Shakespeare you know.

Heckler: Ooooo, Shakespeare. Why don't you do Shakespeare with modern language?

Hamlet: Shakespeare wrote it perfect the way it is. We can't change it.

Heckler: Why not? Just change "To be or not to be..." into whatever the hell it means. [pause] By the way, what does it mean?
