6. Conclusion

At the end of this lesson, you should remember:

– The vocabulary in Unit 11

– Grammar:

+ Will for future prediction (“Will” to predict the future)

• Will is used when we make predictions based on future opinions or experiences. Ex: People will not go to Jupiter before the 22nd century. (Humans won’t be able to reach Jupiter before the 22nd century.)
• Will is used when we decide to do something while speaking (intention is not premeditated.). Ex: I miss her, so I will come to see her. (I miss her, so I’ll go see her.)

+ Possessive pronouns (Possessive pronoun)

Possessive pronouns:

mine (mine, mine)

yours (yours, yours)

his (his)

hers (hers)

its (its)

ours (our)

theirs (their)

We use possessive pronouns instead of a phrase

Ex: She has just bought a book like mine. (Mine = my book) (She just bought a book like mine.)

– Communication: practice talking about future predictions.
