not recommended to let the students do the same project year after year.

b-The Brazilian government built new roads throughout the 1960’s and 1970s.
3- The sentences that give attention to the action itself are the sentences from the reading text;

SAY IT LOUD AND CLEAR (p.64)
Act. One (p.64)
The activity illustrates list intonation. We use a falling intonation when we end the listing and a
rising intonation when we are still in the process of doing so.
There are five types of alternative energies (intonation goes down): solar (rising intonation),
wind (rising intonation), biomass (rising intonation), and hydroelectric (falling intonation) .
All of them can be produced in our country because we have the following natural resources
(falling intonation): the wind (rising intonation), the sun (rising intonation), the mountains
(rising intonation) …
However, solar energy is by far the most viable (falling intonation). It is cheaper (rising
intonation), safer(rising intonation) and less polluting falling intonation). SONELGAZ has
already built power plants in Biskra(rising intonation), Djelfa(rising intonation), Hassi Rmel
(rising intonation)and other localities in the South of Algeria (falling intonation).
Act. Two (p.64)
Discuss with your students and try to single out the sounds which pose pronunciation problems.
Then try to find to elaborate a remedial work for these problem sounds.

The problem sounds given in the activity are the most common ones (for Algerian speakers of
English). Elaborate another exercise to illustrate other problem sounds if there are any other ones
that your students meet and proceed to remedial work.

s/he needs to identify the category of the words, see whether there are any synonyms, antonyms,
or paraphrases of these difficult words. Once s/he is sure that she can’t do otherwise than
checking
4445
a dictionary for understanding the meaning of the difficult words that she has singed out from the
text, she will open the dictionary at the page where the word is listed. In doing so, s/he will pay
attention to the alphabetical order. (Cf; For further information about dictionary skills, check the

During winter, ouside air is captured by warm glass roof panels. Then,
warm air is forced down into a water tank by an air handling unit.
Next, the water in the tank is heated and greater quantities of warm water
air are released. The hot air is then sent down a duct to the crawlspace in
under-floor area. After that, warm water rises through floor registers to the

living space. Some of the heated air is absorbed by concrete slabs . It is
released at night. This process is reversed during summer.

SAY IT LOUD AND CLEAR (p.64)
Act. One (p.64)
The activity illustrates list intonation. We use a falling intonation when we end the listing and a
rising intonation when we are still in the process of doing so.
There are five types of alternative energies (intonation goes down): solar (rising intonation),
wind (rising intonation), biomass (rising intonation), and hydroelectric (falling intonation) .
All of them can be produced in our country because we have the following natural resources
(falling intonation): the wind (rising intonation), the sun (rising intonation), the mountains
(rising intonation) …
However, solar energy is by far the most viable (falling intonation). It is cheaper (rising
intonation), safer(rising intonation) and less polluting falling intonation). SONELGAZ has
already built power plants in Biskra(rising intonation), Djelfa(rising intonation), Hassi Rmel
(rising intonation)and other localities in the South of Algeria (falling intonation).
