B C A 2 Vocabulary Connectors Connectors, also called sentence connectors or transition words, are used to show relationships between ideas in the different sentences in a paragraph. Often, if sentences are short, they come after a semicolon (;). Here is a list of connectors along with their purposes. Purpose Connector to express similarity, agreement or addition first; second; third; in the first place; besides; moreover; to express opposition or as well as; afterwards; so; as well contradiction but; however; although; instead; whereas; despite; in to express purpose spite of; otherwise; rather; besides; nor, give; not; after; to express effect or result neither-nor if; when; because of; since; in order to for; thus; hence; for this reason; therefore; accordingly Note: 1) ‘In spite of’ and ‘despite’ mean the same and are used to express contrast between two things. Here are a few points to remember about their usage: • We use both these words with nouns. Example: She had fun despite / in spite of the bad weather. • ‘In spite of’ is written as three separate words. We never use ‘of’ with ‘despite’. • We never use ‘that’ after ‘in spite of’ or ‘despite’. 2) The spelling difference between ‘beside’ and ‘besides’ is a little one: the ‘-s’ at the end. However, the two mean very different things. ‘Beside’ with no ‘s’ is a preposition. Example: I am sitting beside him. (meaning ‘next to’ or ‘near’) ‘Besides’ with the ‘s’ means ‘other than’ or ‘except’. Example: I am not interested in the movie. Besides, I have to go out with my parents. 52 01/12/2018 18:58:56 PPS_V3_English_G5_WB_Part2.indb 52

Exercise 2.1: Fill in the blanks with the suitable connectors given in the box below. One is done for you.       so   as well   nor   however   afterwards   for this reason 1) Everyone was against Sahir.

Exercise 2.2: Complete the following sentences by choosing the most suitable transition words from the ones given in brackets. One is done for you. 1) My brother does not study very hard. Therefore (Therefore/Moreover/So), he doesn’t do very well in exams. 2) We went out _______________________ (although/despite/besides) the terrible heat. 3) I tried to smile _______________________ (although/however / in spite of) being in a lot of pain. 4) This restaurant has some of the best pizzas in town. _______________________, (In addition to / Moreover/Beside) their service is great too. 5) Maya and I are best friends _______________________ (besides/despite/although) being cousins. 6) I know tables up to 20, _______________________ (although/however/whereas) my younger sister knows them up to 50!

3 Grammar Direct and indirect objects Circle the direct objects and underline the indirect objects in the following sentences: • He bought his son a toy truck. • We got her a box of chocolates. • Gaurav threw Soham the baseball. • Sania told Sultan a marvellous story. • Give Rohan some money. • The mother gave the baby a bath. Remember: Direct object vs. indirect object Direct object Indirect object • It is a noun or pronoun that receives • It is a noun or pronoun that receives what the action of the verb. Remember the direct object names. Remember SAID SAD (Subject – Action verb – Direct (Subject – Action verb – Indirect object – object). Direct object). • It tells 'who' or 'what' receives the • It tells 'to whom' / 'for whom' or 'to what’ / action. 'for what' the action is done. • It does not depend on the indirect • It depends on the direct object. An object. indirect object exists only if there is a direct object in the sentence. Transitive and intransitive verbs You have learnt about transitive and intransitive verbs earlier. Read the following sentences. Underline the transitive verbs and circle the intransitive verbs. •  Reeta bought a pair of jeans. •  The train stopped. •  She likes chocolate milk. •  The horse galloped. •  I invited my friends. •  The chief guest spoke. 54 01/12/2018 18:58:56 PPS_V3_English_G5_WB_Part2.indb 54

Remember: • A transitive verb has an object. It asks the questions ‘what’ or ‘whom’. • An intransitive verb, on the other hand, does not require an object to complete its meaning. Examples: Transitive verbs We enjoyed the concert. My grandmother stitched a quilt. He speaks French. Intransitive verbs The shop closed. The museum opened. The students protested. Exercise 3.1: Rewrite the following sentences by placing the indirect objects before the direct objects. One is done for you. 1) She lent her necklace to me. Ans. She lent me her necklace. Oh! The Places You'll Go... 55 PPS_V3_English_G5_WB_Part2.indb 55 01/15/2018 11:38:59

4 Language in Use Irregular plurals The paragraph has many regular and irregular plurals. Can you underline them? The Story of Jim Once upon a time, there lived a baker named Jim. He baked delicious bread and cakes. His garlic bread was famous across many cities. Everyone loved Jim’s bread. They came from far and wide to buy loaves of bread from him. The rich and the famous came in their grand coaches just to taste his bakery items. He gave his customers candies and balloons. Other bakers wondered why Jim’s garlic bread tasted so yummy. 'Had he attended some secret baking classes?'; 'Did he use some special dishes, spoons and knives?' Nobody knew for sure. Everyone had seen two colourful boxes on the top shelves of Jim’s shop. They tried to guess what was inside them. Perhaps they contained the secret recipes! Days rolled into months and months into years. People forgot all about the boxes. Many years later, after Jim’s death, the colourful boxes were finally opened. Two small chits were found, one in each box. They read ‘Bake with love’ and ‘Bake slowly and happily’. People remembered kind Jim, and there were echoes of 'Long live Jim! We love you Jim!' in the streets. Remember: • Regular plural forms are created by adding ‘-s’ to the ends of the words. • Irregular plural forms are made in other ways than just adding ‘-s’. 58 01/12/2018 18:59:09 PPS_V3_English_G5_WB_Part2.indb 58

Let’s revise some rules for forming irregular plurals. Rule 1: To form the plurals of words that end in ‘-x’, ‘-o’, ‘-s’, ‘-ch’ ‘-sh’ and ‘-ss’, add ‘-es’ to the ends of the words. Examples: taxes, buffaloes, lenses, churches, bushes, kisses Rule 2: To form the plurals of words that end in a consonant plus ‘-y’, drop the ‘y’ and add ‘-ies’. Examples: families, parties, diaries, enemies Rule 3: To form the plurals of words that end in ‘-f’ or ‘-fe’, change ‘-f’ or ‘-fe’ to ‘-ve’ and then add ‘-s’. Examples: knives, thieves Remember: 1) A few words that end in '-f' or '-fe' form their plural forms by simply adding '-s'. Examples: chiefs, roofs, cliffs 2) A few words do not have separate plural forms. The same word denotes singular and plural. Examples: sheep, deer, aircraft Irregular plurals without rules Some words form their plurals in different ways. They do not follow any of the above rules. Examples: Singular Plural Singular Plural tooth teeth goose geese die dice mouse mice foot feet oxen man men ox women person people woman children child Oh!
