    ENGLISHPrepositions

    Prepositions are short words (on, in, to) that usually stand in front of nouns (sometimes also in front

    of gerund verbs).

    Even advanced learners of English find prepositions difficult, as a 1:1 translation is usually not

    possible. One preposition in your native language might have several translations depending on the

    situation.

    There are hardly any rules as to when to use which preposition. The only way to learn prepositions is

    looking them up in adictionary, reading a lot in English (literature) and learning useful phrases off by

    heart (study tips).

    Reported Speech

    Definition

    Reported speech is often also called indirect speech. When we use reported speech, we are

    usually talking about the past (because obviously the person who spoke originally spoke in

    the past). The verbs therefore usually have to be in the past too. For example:

    "I'm going to the cinema".He said he was going to the cinema.

    Basic tense chart

    The tenses generally move backwards in this way (the tense on the left changes to the tenseon the right):

    present simpleI'm a teacher.

    past simpleHe said he was a teacher

    present continuousI'm having lunch with my parents.

    past continuous.He said he was having lunch with his

    parents.

    present perfect simpleI've been to France three times.

    past perfect simpleHe said he had been to France three

    times.

    present perfect continuous

    I've been working very hard.

    past perfect continuous

    He said he had been working very

    hard.past simple

    I bought a new car.

    past perfect

    NO CHANGE POSSIBLE

    past perfect continuousI'd already been living in London for

    five years.

    I'm staying here until next week.

    SCIENCETheories about the creation of the Earth

    Origin of Our Planet

    There are different beliefs and theories about how the earth was formed and no one theory could tell

    exactly how the earth came to be. Scientists believe that the earth was formed more than 4 billionyears ago. They found this out by studying the radioactive elements contained in rocks.

    Here are some theories and beliefs on how the world was formed:

    1. Mythical Origin

    There are myths and folktales that tell about the origin of the earth. Some believe that the earth was

    made by God. The Chinese believe that the earth was created by Pan Ku, a supernatural being. A

    Japanese myth tells that the earth was a creation of two deities Izanami and Izanagi. In 600 B.C.,

    Thales thought that the life was made possible on earth because of water.

    According to him, the earth is like a big basin floating in water. Another important man named

    Anaximander suggested that the earth began from a ball of fire that covered a cold mass. When

    the ball of fire burst into pieces, the pieces became the bodies in space while the cold mass

    became the world. There are different versions of how the world originated which are based mainly

    on the types of people and their beliefs.

    2. Scientific Theories

    Although there are so many beliefs on how the world formed, scientists have better explanations on

    how the world originated. The theories are based on long time studies, researches and observations

    made by the knowledgeable scientists. Scientific explanations are based on facts that are well

    researched by scientists.

    Big Bang Theory

    The Big Bang theory states that the world came from a cosmic egg that is extremely hot. The cosmic

    egg burst and the pieces that were torn formed into planets and other heavenly bodies.

    These theories are all very helpful in explaining how the world came to be.

    Rotation and Revolution of the Earth

    The Revolution of The Earth Around Our Sun

    Throughout the year, as our small blue planetorbits the Sun, many parts of the Earth experience

    changing seasons.

    The warm Spring brings new flowers and young

    animals. This is followed by a hot Summer filled

    with vacations, hikes, and outdoor swimming.

    Following Summer is another warm season known

    as Autumn, where leaves turn beautiful shades of

    reds and browns before falling from their trees.

    Finally, after all of these warmer seasons, comes

    one that is cold, wet, and dry, known as Winter.

    Rotation of the Earth:

  • 7/27/2019 7th Grade IV

    4/7

    The Earth orbits around the Sun. It takes one year to go around the Sun one complete time. The Earth

    also rotates, or spins, on its axis.

    It takes one day to spin around itself one complete time.

    The Earth's axis is not straight up and down, but

    tilted at an angle of 23.5 degrees.

    The rotation is what causes the change from

    day to night. This tilt is responsible for having

    seasons. If the Earth were not tilted, we would

    have the same season all year long.

    Revolution of the Earth:

    The movement of the Earth around the Sun in a

    fixed orbit is called as revolving. One full orbit

    around the sun is one revolution.

    The Earth takes 365 days or 1 year to complete one revolution.

    The Earth revolves around the Sun because of gravity. The Earth really rotates 365 times during

    each revolution. The calendar always has 365 days, after every 4 years, the earth has made one

    extra rotation.

    However, one extra day is added to the month of February once in every four years forming a leap

    year with 366 days.

    MATHBar Graph

    Abar graph uses bars to show data. The bars can be vertical

    (up and down), or horizontal (across).

    The data can be in words or numbers. Also known as bar chart

    is achartwithrectangularbars withlengthsproportional to the

    values that they represent. The bars can be horizontallyoriented or vertically oriented (also called column chart).

    It is a really good way to show relative sizes: it is easy to see which types of movie are most liked, and

    which are least liked, at a glance.

    You can use bar graphs to show the relative sizes of many things, such as what type of car people have,

    how many customers a shop has on different days and so on.
