Avicii - Hey Brother



Listen, follow the lyrics and find:

  1. A sentence providing evidence of the use of "There is / are" for the singular or the plural. It's the one dealing with the existence of a new road to get to know, which never finishes.
  2. Which two liquids are compared?
  3. Why does the adjective take an -er ending?
  4. Now compare the two liquids by using this synonym: solid. Take into account that this adjective doesn't take the -er ending.
  5. A question about the faith in humankind. How do you know it's in the present simple?
  6. A question that suggests that a girl does not trust in love. What's the tense of the sentence?
  7. Find where it is said that a helping hand will be given with no conditions when necessary.
  8. Find a sentence in the 1st conditional
  9. Find the powerful metaphor dealing with the sky.
  10. Consider the context where the terms "brother" and "sister" appear. Can you find a sole synonym for both of them?

1st versus 2nd conditional

Watch the two videos. The first one is about a musician. The second one is a scene of Fiddler on the roof, where a poor man talks about his life and expectations.

  1. Which video is related to a hypothetical, improbable situation?
  2. Which one is related to a probable consequence?
  3. Can you write down a model sentence from each video and analyse their structure, as follows:

If + Subject + ...

4. Send a comment with your 1-3 answers.

In case you need some practice on: the 1st conditional: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 ; the 2nd conditional: 1 2 3 4 5
