Todo o vocabulário de uma língua é formado através de alguns processos específicos. Há palavras primitivas, das quais se derivam outras palavras. Há palavras que evoluíram de línguas mais antigas que originaram aquela língua em particular, há misturas entre essas palavras herdadas e outras próprias da língua e há os processos de formação de palavras internos às línguas, que se dão através de derivação e de composição. O estudo da formação das palavras denomina-se morfologia (do grego morphe: morfo = forma + logos = estudo) e demonstra não só a flexibilidade da língua em receber e em criar novos vocábulos, mas as possibilidades do usuário nativo da língua transferir uma palavra de uma categoria a outra através do uso dos mecanismos que permitem essa variação.
Sobre a morfologia a Língua Inglesa, não é verdadeira a afirmação:
A Gramática tradicional diz que o verbo descreve o que uma pessoa ou coisa faz ou o que acontece: uma ação, um evento, uma situação, uma mudança. A forma básica de um verbo é conhecida como o infinitivo.
Sobre os verbos da Língua Inglesa não é verdadeiro o que afirma a letra:
As palavras pertencem a categorias chamadas classes de palavras (ou partes do discurso - parts of speech) de acordo com a função que elas desempenham em uma frase.
Sobre as classes de palavras da Língua Inglesa é falso afirmar que:
TEXT II
Like Castles In An Aquarium, Offshore Drilling Platforms Are Sprawling With Residents
Just beneath the ocean’s surface, there’s an unseen world that most people will never have the opportunity to witness firsthand. A place where nature and mankind have struck a balance – a mutual respect, a friendship of sorts.
Offshore drilling platforms have become home to vast communities of sea life. Florid carpets of coral encrust their massive pylons, along with sponge, sea urchins, crabs, and snails. Swimming in the sanctuary of their enormous risers are schools of rockfish, bright orange garibaldi and angel fish. And splashing about on the surface is the occasional sea lion.
Now scientists have confirmed what some had suspected all along. Most of the sea life was actually created at the rig rather than having come from other parts of the ocean and settled there, according to the National Academy of Sciences. And fish that would otherwise perish in vast expanses of open ocean, settle within the safety of the structures.
Like castles in an aquarium, offshore platforms are sprawling with underwater residents. Scientists say these are the richest marine ecosystems on the entire planet. They are even more productive than coral reefs and estuaries, according to marine biologists.
The first thing anyone – trained scientist or casual recreational diver – notices around a rig is the big fish -- lots of them, say marine researchers and divers, alike.
For a decade and a half, researchers used submersibles to survey fish at 16 different platforms. When the researchers tabulated the data, they were surprised to discover that, by one standard, California’s oil rigs are among the most productive marine habitats ever recorded.
At the end of their production, however, the offshore rigs must be decommissioned. Scientific insight is adding momentum to efforts to convert some of these rigs into artificial reefs […].

When tourists laugh at him, he does not complain. The reader sees this as a sign of heroism. He showed courage in the fight and stoicism in defeat. The novel discussed here is called

Why talk about language teaching methods at all? In recent years, a number of writers have criticized the very concept of (41) in our field. “Let’s just focus on learners and teachers and everything else will fall into place,” they seem to suggest. Some say that teachers see methods as prescriptions for classroom behavior and follow them too (42) , too inflexibly. By contrast, others argue that in planning their lessons, (43) don’t really think about codified methods at all. In the one view, methods and the prefabricated materials that embody them (44) teachers to mere technicians; in the other, teachers are mere improvisers in the here-and-now, with no use for general statements about how (45) acts may fit together. Either view should make any writer about methods and materials stop and think.
Having stopped and (46) , I find myself giving a single reply to both of the above objections: Language teachers are simply not “mere.” They are neither mere technicians (47) mere improvisers. They are professionals who make their own decisions, informed by their own (48) but informed also by the findings of researchers and by the accumulated, distilled, crystallized experience of their peers.
Let me then suggest three questions that we might well ask about “method,” together with my proposed answers:
What is a “method”? A method is more concrete than (49) . An approach is a set of understandings about what is at stake in learning and also about the equipment, mechanical or neurological, that is at work in learning. At the same time, a method is more abstract than a teaching act, which is a one-time event that can be recorded on videotape and on the neurocortexes of learners.
Is it possible to evaluate or to profit from an approach without embodying it in some kind of (50) ? Possible, perhaps, to some limited degree, but not easy.
Is it possible to improvise teaching acts apart from some more or less conscious approach? Possible, perhaps, but rare.
“Method,” then, seems to occupy a strategic mid-position between approach and (51) . For this reason, whoever would either think usefully about teaching or would teach thoughtfully can profit from learning about methods.
