"Ryan and Jason do an excellent job of distinguishing the wheat from the chaff. I particularly like their clear and timely messaging of what actions they are taking and expectations of what should be the appropriate levels to get in/out of trades."

"If you trade cryptos without any help... You are driving in the dark. I have wanted so badly for a crypto service that gives technical advice (charts). I was a retail broker for 20 years and my best traders were technicians. I give Crypto Waves 5 stars without hesitation."

"Crypto Waves by Seeking Alpha is down to earth, to the point, with explanatory videos. What I like most is the possibility to interact with Ryan and Jason, ask questions, and get immediate and value added responses. It is very much worth the subscription fees."

"Since being a member, I've ditched a lot of low-quality cryptos for better, high-performing alternatives. My crypto portfolio has only been increasing in value since making those changes and following their charts. Give the free trial a go to see if it works for you."

Paraphrasing

In this lesson we will learn how to paraphrase, that is, to say the same thing with different words.

Is there any difference between the two sentences below? Think about meaning, connotation, formality...

"

I was made redundant yesterday

"

"

They fired me yesterday

"

Using different words or a different structure can change the impact we have on the listener or reader

Can you think of any situation where you have to be particularly careful about the vocabulary you use or the way you give a message?

Paraphrasing is also a good trick to sound more fluent by using a variety of words and parts of speech (nouns, verbs, adjectives, etc)

Let's go to the next slide to do some practice!

Motiva____

Influen____

Success____

Safe____

Grow___

Perfect

Secur____

tial

tion

ty

ity

th

ful

Complete the words with the right ending

Can you think of more words containing those endings?

He's a very influential person in the Fashion industry.The most important thing these days is to stay safe.There has been a huge growth in the Pharmaceutical area.He has achieved a high level of success over the years.There's a low level of motivation among our employees

Can you paraphrase these sentences? Focus on changing the words in bold.

Let's try to paraphrase these sentences.

5. David remembered to take everything except his front door key.The only thing that ______________________________was his front door key.

6. It was necessary to follow the instructions exactly.The instructions had to ___________________________ exactly.

Let's try to paraphrase these sentences.

Can you change these sentences to make them sound more formal / polite?

A final report will be written when the project concludes.A final report will be written at____________________________. (use a noun derived from 'conclude')I am writing to formally appeal against the disciplinary penalty you imposed on me.I am writing to formally appeal against the disciplinary penalty_____________ (use a passive form to sound more impersonal)I would be grateful if you would tell me when and where we can meet to discuss my appeal.I would be grateful if you would ___________________ when and where we can meet to discuss my appeal. (Use an alternative phrase to sound more formal)The data modified by William B. last week generated a large volume of information in the system. That's the reason why the valuation process failed.The data modified by William B. last week generated a large volume of information in the system. That's the reason why________________ (Use a noun derived from ther verb 'fail').

In this lesson we'll be reviewing some of the most common phrasal verbs

Phrasal verbs are formed by a verb plus a preposition (or sometimes two!).

Native speakers use them a lot, so using them yourself will help you sound more natural and fluent

What are some of the phrasal verbs you usually use or hear ? Can you explain what they mean?

find

out

turned

down

get

back

put

off

cut

down

fill

in

carry

on

Can you complete these sentences using a verb + a preposition from the list?

Click on the pictures and answer the questions

Now you can try making your own questions to ask each other!

Have you ever had to put off a trip or holiday?

How often do people you work with make mistakes filling in a form?

Have you ever turned down a job offer?

Is there anything you're trying to cut down on right now?

How often do you carry on working after your working hours are over?

Did you ever consider getting your money back after you bought a product that did not satisfy you?

What is more formal: 'continue' o 'carry on'?

...'postpone' or 'put back'?

...'cut down on' or 'reduce'?

What conclusion can you make?

Can you match the questions to the responses?

Can you try making the question more formal by changing the phrasal verb for another verb?

Can you try making the question more formal by changing the phrasal verb for another verb?

Can you try making the question more formal by changing the phrasal verb for another verb?

The best way to learn phrasal verbs is to see them in context, so let's watch this video and pay attention to them!

Zuckerberg shares painful moment in Facebook history

Click here to read the transcript and try to fill in the blanks

Interviewer: I want to talk for a second about low points, I think it's always reassuring to hear that even Mark Zuckerberg ____________ some serious low points and ___________ okay. So can you tell us about some of the hardest parts in the early history of Facebook?

Mark Zuckerberg: Yeah, I think one of the hardest parts for me was actually when Yahoo offered to buy the company for a lot of money. You know, at the end of that, Dustin and I just decided, you know, ‘we think that we can actually go connect more than just the 10 million people who are in schools, we can go beyond that and have this really be a successful thing’. We just had to ___________ it but it was really stressful because a lot of people really thought that we should sell the company. The part that was painful wasn't ___________ the offer, it was the fact that after that, huge amounts of the company quit because they didn't believe in what we were doing. I mean, if you look at the management team that we had…

Interviewer: Did the whole management team leave?

Mark Zuckerberg: The whole management team was gone within about a year after that.
