Preface    IMAX Program partners with schools, supporting them with learning materials  and processes that are all crafted to work together as an interconnected system  to drive learning. IMAX Program presents the latest version of this series –  updated and revised after considering the perceptive feedback and comments  shared by our experienced reviewers and users.    This series endeavours to be faithful to the spirit of the prescribed board  curriculum. Our books strive to ensure inclusiveness in terms of gender and  diversity in representation, catering to the heterogeneous Indian classroom.    Listening, speaking, reading and writing (LSRW) are fundamental skills for any  language, and students’ mastery over them is key to success at school. All these  skills frequently need to be used together. Therefore, the English textbooks and  workbooks strive to provide adequate opportunities for students to practise all the  four LSRW skills.    To this effect, the English textbooks and workbooks offer the following features:        T heme-based literature pieces across classes 1-5        Samples of Indian writing in English as well as popular English literature pieces           from western countries        P ictures for word meanings in each lesson to help students with visual clues           for new or difficult words        S upplementary literature pieces (without questions and answers) to enable           additional reading        A speaking project and two reading comprehension passages in each unit           to further hone speaking and reading skills        Horizontal and vertical progression across grades for the grammar concepts           covered in the workbooks, providing a spiral of cumulative learning        S amples of format-based writing to provide for scaffolding of learning of           formal writing    Overall, the IMAX English textbooks, workbooks and teacher companion books  aim to generate greater engagement with and enhance fluency in English  language communication and empower students to develop a genuine  appreciation of the language and its literature.                                                                                                        – The Authors    ALP_G4_ENG_WB_Part 2.indb 2                                                                                        20-11-2018 18:21:29

Examples:         • He went to the market yesterday.         • Rita likes to eat laddoos.              2                                                                               20-11-2018 18:21:31    ALP_G4_ENG_WB_Part 2.indb 2
Two: It is the number name of 2.         Examples:         • Chanda has eaten two biscuits today.         • Two of his friends were laughing loudly.

Underline the main verbs and circle the helping verbs in the sentences  given below.    1) Do you know my name?         2) She is doing her best.    3) We are going to the market.  4) I am making eggs for dinner.                                    Remember    • V erbs are action words. They show the action that the noun does or the state of being        of the noun.    Examples:	a) Corla cooks very well.      b) Subhash lives in Assam.    • Helping verbs do not show any action but help the main verb to complete its meaning.        They also add detail or show the state of being of the noun. Helping verbs are also        called auxiliary verbs.    Examples:	a) We were going to the park.	 b) There is a forest here.              4                                                                                20-11-2018 18:21:32    ALP_G4_ENG_WB_Part 2.indb 4
Modal verbs (ability and permission)  Read the following sentences.    May I use your phone,        Could my sister come along  I can swim for an hour, but            please?                             too?            my brother cannot.    Observe the use of ‘may’, ‘could’, ‘can’ and ‘cannot’ in these sentences. They are used by  speakers to ask for permission or to show ability. The word ‘cannot’ shows a lack of ability to  do something. These words are called modal verbs.    What are modal verbs?    Modal verbs, or helping verbs, give additional information about the main verbs that follow  them. Let us learn about the modal verbs that show ability and are used to ask for permission.

You can watch the play.    Note: To use a modal verb in its negative form, add ‘not’ between the modal verb and the  main verb.

Subject-verb agreement  A sentence is made up of three parts.                                           Sentence                         Subject                    Verb                           Object     It is what or whom the sentence is    about; it is somebody or something   It is the action that  It is the thing or the person who                                         the subject does.       is acted upon or receives the          who/that does the action.                                                                                 action.  Now, read the following sentences.    • He cook dinner for his family.       • The girls walks to college every day.  • Your sister talk a lot for her age.  • The children swims well.    You will notice that all these sentences seem odd. They just do not sound correct! Identify the  subjects and verbs in these sentences. You will find that they do not go together.                                           Remember    • 	In a correct and meaningful sentence, the subject should be in line with the verb. This        means that the subject and the verb should agree.    • This is known as subject-verb agreement.    Rules of subject-verb agreement    Rule 1  A singular subject takes a singular verb, while a plural subject takes          a plural verb.    Examples:  • The boy throws a ball.  • The boys throw a ball.              8                                                                                  20-11-2018 18:21:34    ALP_G4_ENG_WB_Part 2.indb 8
Rule 2                       Two singular subjects connected by ‘or’, ‘either... or’ or ‘neither...                               nor’ require a singular verb.                                 However, if one of the two subjects is plural and is closer to the main                               verb than the singular subject, then the verb will be plural.    Examples:  • Either my brother or sister has made the bed.  • My uncle or aunt is arriving today.  • Neither Mary nor her children want to go to the park.    Rule 3 Use a plural verb with two or more subjects connected by ‘and’.        Examples:      • Kabir and these children are friends.      • Meher and Mihir go to school together.                                               Remember    • 	W e add ‘-s’ to make nouns plural and remove the ‘-s’ to make them singular. However,        with verbs, it is the opposite. With verbs, we need to add ‘-s’ to make them singular and        remove the ‘-s’ to make them plural.    • U	 se the helping verbs ‘is’, ‘does’ and ‘has’ with singular nouns.  • U	 se the helping verbs ‘are’, ‘do’ and ‘have’ with plural nouns.

Let us now correct the sentences we read earlier.       He cook dinner for his family.    H  e cooks dinner for his family.                                                              ‘He’ is a singular subject, so the singular verb ‘cooks’                                                           should be used.     Your sister talk a lot for her age.  Your sister talks a lot for her age.                                         A gain, ‘sister’ is a singular subject that goes with the                                       singular verb ‘talks’.     The girls walks to college         The girls walk to college every day.        every day.     The children swims well.          ‘Girls’ is a plural subject, while ‘walks’ is a singular                                       verb. To correct the sentence, we should use                                       ‘walk’, which is a plural verb.                                          The children swim well.                                         A gain, ‘children’ is a plural subject, so we should                                       use 'swim', which is the plural form of the singular                                       verb ‘swims’.

Grammar    Simple present, simple past and simple future tenses  Meet Siya and read her story.                                    Hi! I am Siya. I live in Chennai. I study in Class 4. I love to read, swim                                  and travel. We travelled to Bengaluru last month. I went with my                                  parents and my brother.                                  Bengaluru is a beautiful city. During our stay, we visited many                                  historical places and gardens. For our next vacation, we will visit Delhi.                                  My grandparents live in Delhi. Together, we will travel to Mathura. Isn’t                                  that exciting?    Notice that Siya is talking about:  • actions that happen every day or are generally true.  • actions that have taken place earlier (in the past).  • actions that will take place later (in the future).  Just like Siya, when we communicate, we refer to the present time, the time in the past and  the time in the future. In other words, we use tenses.

We will visit Delhi.                                                                Module 8  25    ALP_G4_ENG_WB_Part 2.indb 25                                          20-11-2018 18:21:45

Remember    • 	A dverbs describe or say more about verbs and adjectives.    • 	A dverbs that show the way or manner in which actions are done are called adverbs of        manner.    • Adverbs of manner answer the question ‘how?’.        Example:    Ravi spoke softly.                                   softly    How did Ravi speak?    So, ‘softly’ is the adverb of manner.    • Most adverbs are formed by adding ‘-ly’ to the ends of adjectives.    Examples:                     – quickly     quick     beautiful 	 –   beautifully    Now, let us learn about two new kinds of adverbs.  Adverbs of degree  Adverbs of degree tell us about the degree or intensity of an action.  Adverbs of degree answer the questions 'how much?' or ‘to what extent?’.                                  How difficult is this                 It’s                                      exercise?                  extremely                                                                      easy.    Here, the word ‘extremely’ is the adverb of degree. It shows the degree of difficulty of the  exercise.                                                                   Module 9   41    ALP_G4_ENG_WB_Part 2.indb 41                                              20-11-2018 18:21:50
Here are two more examples of adverbs of degree.             to a  • Be careful. You almost fell from the tree.           considerable                                                                extent    ‘Almost’ answers the question ‘to what extent?’. So, it is an adverb of degree.    • It is too cold to go out.                to a very                                           large extent    ‘Too’ describes the intensity of the cold weather. Hence, it is an adverb of degree.    The following table gives the most commonly used adverbs of degree.    almost                         nearly    hardly        very                   completely    too                         enough     quite         just                    extremely                                             Remember    • 	S ometimes, adverbs describe other adverbs.    Examples:                                 I finished my work quite quickly.     She runs very fast.    adverb of                     adverb of  adverb of                   adverb of   degree                         manner    degree                       manner    Adverbs of place  An adverb of place tells us about the place where an action takes place or happens.  Adverbs of place answer the question ‘where?’.                                             Let us go there.              42                                                                              20-11-2018 18:21:50    ALP_G4_ENG_WB_Part 2.indb 42
Notice that the word ‘there’ answers the question ‘where?’ and tells us about the location of  the movement. So, it is an adverb of place.
