We often use can or would when we ask someone to do something:

-Excuse me. Could you tell me how to get to the station?

To ask for something  you can say  Can I have…?/ Could I have…?May I have…?

-Do you think I could borrow your bicycle? Yes, help yourself.

-May I come in? Yes, please do.

To give permission, we use CAN or MAY (but not COULD)

-You can (or may) smoke if you like.

Use CAN/CANT to talk about what is already allowed or not allowed:

-You can drive for a year in Britian with an international licence.

- If  you are under 17, you cant drive a car in Britian.

c)      We sometimes use CAN when we offer to do things:

-Can I get you a cup of coffee?  That is very nice of you

d)     For offering and inviting we use WOULD YOU LIKE…?(not do you like)

WOMENS DAY READING COMPREHENSION

Hi girls.

Remember you have to answer the questions about the reading for next class.

READING COMPREHENSION - INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY

Develop your reading skills. Read the following text and do the comprehension questions

WOMEN'S DAY

International Women's Day (IWD) is marked on March 8 every year. Countries around the world celebrate IWD to give credit to the economic, political and social achievements of women and to show respect to their contributions in the development of their countries. The IWD was first celebrated on 19 March 1911 in Germany following a declaration by the Socialist Party of America. It's only in the beginning of the 20th century that the day was officially and internationally recognized because of the rapid industrialization and the social protest that it accompanied.

On this day women are usually given flowers and small gifts. It is also celebrated as an equivalent of Mother's Day in some countries. Children also give small gifts to their mothers and grandmothers. In countries like Portugal, it is common, at the night of 8 March, for groups of women to celebrate the holiday with women-only dinners and parties.

Women are becoming more powerful in business, entertainment, politics and many more areas, but there are still a lot of inequalities around the world which call for the mobilization of everybody to grant women the proper status they merit.

Comprehension:

When was the first IWD celebrated?

a)      In the end of the 20th century

b)      In the middle of the 20th century

c)       At the beginning of the 20th century.

Social protests and industrialization were some of the causes that led to IWD

a)      True

b)      False

The IWD is celebrated _____ around the world

a)      similarly

b)      differently

Women still need to fight

b)      for higher salaries
