Hi Juan,

I know you haven’t started learning English phrasal verbs yet, but you will soon! We use
them all the time when we’re speaking or writing personal emails. They’re cool but really
difficult, because the two parts usually don’t keep their normal meanings. Prepositions like
in, on, out, up, and down often don’t keep their meanings in phrasal verbs. For example, we
(21) _____ something on a website, we look up a word in a dictionary, and we check out
activities at a gym! Sometimes the preposition has its normal meaning, but it is not easy to
see why we use a particular verb with it. For example, we have clothes on our bodies, so we
use off when we are getting ready for bed, but why do we say (22) _____ off? Sometimes,
though, it is easy to see why the verb and the preposition are used together. If we borrow
money from someone, for example, we have to (23) _____ it back.

Another problem is that sometimes phrasal verbs have more than one meaning. For
example, the phrasal verb (24) _____ can mean find the answer, in a math problem, for
example, but it also means to do exercise.

Finally, sometimes we only have a phrasal verb for a very common action. We don’t open a
television – well, TV engineers do, but not you and me – we don’t start it or begin it, we
(25) _____.

Good luck when you start learning these wonderful verbs!

V/ READING
Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct
answer to each of the questions.
 Thanksgiving is a festival which is celebrated every year in several countries around the
world. In the USA, it happens on the fourth Thursday of November and in Canada on the
second Monday of October. In Germany, some places celebrate Thanksgiving in September
and others in October. In Japan, the day is the 23rd of November. In every case, it is a
traditional way of giving thanks for the food which was grown that summer.

When I was a little girl, my younger brother and I used to look forward to Thanksgiving
every year. In the morning, our mom and dad would start cooking in the kitchen, and we
would help. We always had a turkey, which is like a big chicken. It took hours to cook, so
we had to start early because we would always eat at 2.00 p.m. There were potatoes and lots
of delicious vegetables like carrots. But my favorite thing was the pumpkin pie which we
had afterwards.

My aunt would sometimes come, because my mother used to love cooking for her sister and
her nephew. But they lived a long way from our town and most years they couldn’t come.

Before we ate, we would all sit around our big table. My parents would always ask us to say
what we were thankful for. I used to say “my family”, and once my little brother said his
toys, which made us laugh. After that, we would start eating.

In the afternoon, we would all sit down and watch the Thanksgiving parade. I used to love
seeing the big balloons with faces as they went past the TV cameras and listening to all the
different bands. Afterwards, we would sometimes play board games, or go to the park if it
wasn’t too cold outside.

22. What meal did the writer’s family used to have to celebrate Thanksgiving?
A. Breakfast.
B. Lunch.
C. Dinner.
D. The text doesn’t say.

23. How many people would usually sit down to eat the Thanksgiving meal in the writer’s house?
A. Four.
B. Five.
C. Six.
D. Seven.

24. How often did the girl say she was thankful for her family?
