Объяснение
When working with a text we separate the parts of each composite sentence, find its conjunction and name its type. The conjunctions in a text show the links between thoughts – contrast, alternation, comparison – and make speech logical. To enrich vocabulary we write new words with their meanings in a notebook and make sentences with them. “Ziyrak” is a quick-witted, attentive person; “vafo” is being faithful; “saxovat” is the quality of sharing with others. After analysing the text, express its idea in your own words.
Примеры
Mini-text: “A true friend.” Karim was a bright boy but did not like to read. His friend Sardor brought him a new book every day and invited him to read together. One day Karim became interested in books and now looked for new ones himself. Loyalty means that a friend leads a friend to good.
Analysis: “Karim ziyrak bola edi, lekin kitob o‘qishga erinardi” – adversative; “Karim kitobga qiziqib qoldi va endi o‘zi yangi kitob qidirdi” – copulative (sequence).
Работа в классе
“Sentence chain”: groups add a new part to the text using at least one adversative and one copulative sentence.
