 |
|
I have a Filipina friend who would like to attend an Introduction to TESOL at ECC in Thailand�he sent me this portion of the pre-admission test to check his grammar. What he does not understand so well is I was an Economics major and a poor English student my whole life (I feel I am a good English conversation teacher but avoid all things technical).
Please have a look and help me with the answers. Thanks in advance:
* Please indicate the sentences that use the passive voice:
a. I�ve finished the book you lent me.
b. I was fined for driving too fast.
c. He watched a movie yesterday.
d. BMWs are made in Germany.
*Please indicate the main stressed syllable in these words:
a.Thailand b. pronunciation c. teacher
d.education e. grammar f. sentence |
