A/ Apologies (= saying sorry)
We can apologise (= say sorry) in different ways in different situations:
Situations:
(I'm) sorry. I beg your pardon.=> A general apology,
e.g. you close the door in someone's face, interrupt someone, etc.
B/ Excuses and promises
If the situation is quite important we usually add an explanation or excuse after the
apology. An excuse is the reason for the apology, which may or may not be true. (If it is
not true, it should still be a reason that people will believe.) Here are some common
excuses:
I'm sorry I'm late but I was delayed/held up at the airport.

A/ Verb + -ing form
I stayed in last night but I feel like going out this evening.
At the police station, he admitted stealing the woman's money but denied hitting
her.
Cigarettes are very expensive, so he's decided to give up smoking.
http://www.ucan.vn/
Page 94
I've lived in New Zealand all my life; I can't imagine living anywhere else.
B/ Verb + infinitive
We were very busy but we managed to finish before 6 p.m.
It was getting late and there were no buses so I offered to take them home in my
car.
He hit one of the boys but he didn't mean to do it; I meant to go but I forgot.
C/ Verb + infinitive without 'to'

There are two common verbs followed by an object + infinitive without 'to'. They are:
make someone do something, and let someone do something.
My parents make me do my homework every night. (= they force me to do my

homework)
My parents let me go out after I've done my homework. (= they allow/permit me

to go out)
D/ Verb + -ing form or infinitive

Some verbs can be followed by an -ing form or infinitive, but the meaning is very similar,
e.g. love, like, hate, and prefer. But with some verbs there is a difference in meaning:
I remembered to buy a present for my brother. (= I didn't forget to buy a present)
I remember buying her a present. (= it's in my memory; it happened and I

remember)

Simple Present Tense
Cu trc (Form): Ch ng + ng t (dng hin ti n) + O
Examples:
You like this blog.

Do you like this blog?
You do not like this blog.
USE 1: Hnh ng lp i lp li (Repeated Actions)

Use the Simple Present to express the idea that an action is repeated or usual. The
action can be a habit (thi quen), a hobby (s thch), a daily event, a scheduled event or
something that often happens. It can also be something a person often forgets or
usually does not do.
Examples:
http://www.ucan.vn/
Page 105
I play badminton.
She does not play badminton.
Does he play badminton?
The bus leaves every morning at 8 AM.
The bus does not leave at 9 AM.
When does the bus usually leave?
He never forgets his wallet.
Every twelve months, the Earth circles the Sun.
Does the Sun circle the Earth?
USE 2: Nhng s tht hin nhin, nhng chn l (Facts or Generalizations)

The Simple Present can also indicate the speaker believes that a fact was true before,
is true now, and will be true in the future. It is not important if the speaker is correct
about the fact. It is also used to make generalizations about people or things.
Examples:
Cats like milk.

Birds do not like milk.
Do pigs like milk?
Hanoi is in Vietnam.
Hanoi is not in the Thailand.

Events in the Near Future)
Speakers occasionally use Simple Present to talk about scheduled events in the near
future. This is most commonly done when talking about public transportation, but it can
be used with other scheduled events as well.
Examples:
The bus leaves tonight at 6 PM.

The bus does not arrive at 11 AM, it arrives at 11 PM.
The party starts at 8 oclock.
When does class begin tomorrow?

(i.e. not at home). They're at a party tonight.
- on a surface e.g. The book is on the desk. We sat on the floor.

kitchen. The key's in my pocket. Put it in the box.
B/ Opposites
- When we flew over Paris we couldn't see much because we were above the clouds.
- Below us was the river which ran under the bridge.
C/ Here are some more common prepositions of place
- We drove along the river, round the lake, past the old castle, and through the village.
- We came over the bridge, and parked next to the house, which was opposite the hotel.
- Our house is between two shops and it is near a bus stop; you just go across the road

Give me a kiss before you tell me goodbye
Dont you take it so hard now

Youll feel better tomorrow
Come the morning light now baby

Summer has come and passed, the innocent can never last.
Wake me up when September ends.Like my fathers come to pass,
seven years has gone so fast.Wake me up when September ends.Here comes the rain
again,
falling from the stars.
Drenched in my pain again,
becoming who we are.
As my memory rests,
but never forgets what I lost.
Wake me up when September ends.Summer has come to pass,
the innocent can never last.
Wake me up when September ends.Ring out the bells again,
like we did when spring began.
Wake me up when September ends.Here comes the rain again,
falling from the stars.
Drenched in my pain again,
becoming who we are.
As my memory rests,
but never forgets what I lost.
Wake me up when September ends.

Next, Father approaches Bill Gates.

Enrique Iglesias - Hero
Let me be your hero

Would you dance,
if I asked you to dance?
Would you run,
and never look back?
Would you cry,
if you saw me crying?
http://www.ucan.vn/
Page 478

And would you save my soul, tonight?
Would you tremble,
if I touched your lips?
Would you laugh?
Oh please tell me this.
Now would you die,
for the one you love?
Hold me in your arms, tonight.
I can be your hero, baby.

I can kiss away the pain.
I will stand by you forever.
You can take my breath away.
Would you swear,

that you'll always be mine?
Or would you lie?
would you run and hide?
Am I in too deep?
Have I lost my mind?
I don't care...
You're here, tonight.

Oh, I just wanna to hold you.

I've made up my mind, don't need to think it over
If I'm wrong I am right, don't need to look no further
This ain't lust, I know this is love
But if I tell the world, I'll never say enough
'Cause it was not said to you
And that's exactly what I need to do if I'd end up with you
