Dos enlaces a los ejercicios del English File especialmente para estos “Connectors”: because, so, but, although
CONNECTORS AND SEQUENCERS
When
we speak or write we have two options. We can use the formula sentence + sentence + sentence + sentence + ..... which doesn't sound too natural
I like Sundays.
I don't work on Sundays.
I wake up at 8.30.
I get up at 10.00.
I have a big breakfast.
I sometimes read the newspaper.
I sometimes work in the garden.
I go out for a walk.
I have lunch with my family.
We watch TV.
We talk.
We don't work.
We don't study.
Or we can link the sentences and the discourse using CONNECTORS
(and,
or, but, because)
and SEQUENCERS
(then,
before/after breakfast, ...)
which sounds a lot more natural, don't you think so?
I like Sundays because
I
don't work. I wake up at 8.30 but
I
get up at 10.00 and
I
have a big breakfast. Then
I
sometimes read the newspaper or
work
in the garden. Before
lunch I
go out for a walk. Then
I
have lunch with my family. After
lunch we
watch TV and
talk.
We don't work or
study.
