Extreme Sports - What does it mean for something to be an extreme sport?
p. 117 - Marathon des Sables
250km in six days in Morocco
---
In your group, use your phones to try to find the craziest or most unusual example of an extreme sport that you can.
---
Why do people do things like this?
---
Would you move to Mars if you had the chance?
http://www.mars-one.com/ - Some people have already signed up to possibly go to Mars in 2031.
---
p. 120 - What process is in the picture? How long will it take?
---
Grammar: second conditional = present/future unreal conditional
Would you move to Mars if you had the chance?
= I don’t expect that you will have that chance, but I want you to imagine it.
form:
if + [simple past], subject + would/could/might + base form
Formally, it’s [simple past without “was”], because we say things like “If I were you.”
p. 121 part 10 - With your partner, complete the questions with the correct forms of the verb. Then find the answers to the questions in the text on p. 120.
1 had, would be - change the atmosphere
2 would it take - six months
3 Would it be - yes
4 would happen, melted - It would release carbon dioxide.
5 would...change, increased - The temperature would increase.
6 would we learn - We might learn how to manage our limited Earth better.
---
would/could/might
What would you do with a million dollars? - I’m asking for a definite, specific plan.
What might you do with a million dollars? - I’m asking for some of your ideas of possible plans.
What could you do with a million dollars? - I’m asking what you would be able to do (whether or not you’d want to.)
	(Notice that we don’t need to include a complete if-clause to talk about the unreal future.)
- Questions with “might” are pretty uncommon. It’s more likely that someone asks a question with “would” and you answer with “might” because you’re not sure enough to use “would”.

If you had to move to another city for the rest of your life, where would you go, and what five things would you bring in a backpack to your new life? Talk to your partner about your ideas.

BREAK

p. 118 - What two words combine to make “bionic”? - bio(logy) + (electr)onic
part 2 - Match the beginnings and endings of these sentences that you hear in the listening.
1 The Bionic Woman was a TV series in which the character was part machine and part human.
2 The documentary is about a woman whose arm was amputated.
3 Doctors have developed a process which grows new organs.
4 Amanda Kitts is learning to do things that we take for granted.
5 Bionics can help people who have lost limbs.
6 There’ll be a time when blind people will use bionic devices to see.
take for granted = accept as normal and don’t think about

Grammar: Defining Relative Clauses (also adjective clauses)
clause = group of words including a subject and verb
defining/restrictive/identifying = It tells us which noun(s) the sentence is about.
(non-defining/restricve/identifying = It tells us additional information, but we already know which noun it’s about.)

I like all of my students, who do their homework. = I like all of my students, and all of them do their HW.
I like all of my students who do their homework. = Not all of my students do their homework. This sentence isn’t about the ones who don’t.
---
when = a time
who = a person
(whom = a person, as the object of a verb or preposition)
whose = a possession of the noun
which = things (not times or people)
that = things, people, and sometimes times
where = places
why = reasons
---
p. 119 part 7 - Complete the sentences with the correct relative pronouns.
1 who/that
2 who/that
3 which/that
4 when
5 where (“which” or “that” would need a preposition, “to” in this case)
6 whose
---
That’s the tree whose leaves are shaped like stars. - In relative clauses, “whose” can refer to things.
Whose leaves are shaped like stars? - In questions, “whose” only refers to people, so now I want to know which person has some leaves that look like stars.
I know whose leaves are shaped like stars. - In noun clauses, “whose” also only means a person, so here I’m telling you I know the answer to the previous question.
---
the restaurant where I ate last night
the restaurant in which I ate last night
the restaurant which I ate in last night
the restaurant that I ate in last night
the restaurant I ate in last night
- We can remove “that” if it isn’t the subject of the relative clause.
---

---

1 injured (“wounded” often implies violence)
2 heal (“Heal” is what your body does, “treat” is what you do to your condition.)
3 appointment
4 cure (“Cure” is what we do to a condition and then it’s totally fixed.)
5 hurt (“hurt” is usually a verb, “pain” is usually a noun)
