# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
What is indirect speech or reported speech?

When we tell people what another person said or thought, we often use reported speech or indirect speech. To do that, we need to change verb tenses (present, past, etc.) and pronouns ( I, you, my, your, etc.) if the time and speaker are different. For example, present tenses become past, I becomes he or she, and my becomes his or her, etc.

Omission of that

We often leave out that after reporting verbs like say, think, etc.

The most common verbs we use in reported speech are say and tell. We must pay attention here. We say tell somebody something, and say something (to somebody).

Tense changes in indirect speech

When a person said something in the past and now we tell somebody what that person said, the time is different, and for this reason, the verb tenses change. Look at a summary of these changes.

Changes in expressions

There are adverbs or expressions of time and place that change when we report what someone said. Here you have a list.

Questions in indirect speech

We use the normal order of words in reported questions, i.e. the subject comes before the verb, and it is not necessary to use do or did.

Imperatives in indirect speech

When we report an order or instruction, we use the form ask or tell someone to do something.

Pronoun changes in indirect speech

In reported or indirect speech we must also pay attention to the use of pronouns. When a person tells us something, he or she uses the first person ( I, me, my, we, us, our) to talk about himself or herself and the second person ( you, your) to talk about us, the person listening. But when we tell someone else what that person said, we are going to use the third person ( he, she, his, her, etc.) to talk about the speaker and the first person ( I, me, my) to talk about ourselves, the listener.

Education - B2 English Vocabulary

In this Pre-advanced Vocabulary Lesson about Education, you will learn common words and phrases related to the educational system, the roles and titles of individuals involved, and the various aspects of studying and learning. Check the pictures, definitions and example sentences below to understand these terms better.

People

A 1 headteacher (UK) or principal (US) is a person who runs a school and is responsible for all its staff and pupils.

A 2 lecturer is a person who teaches at a college or university on a part-time or freelance basis.

A 7 postgraduate is a person who is engaged in further studies after completing a first degree.

Your 12 peers are people studying at the same level as you at a school, college, or university.

Studies

A bachelor's degree, a master's degree, and a doctorate are all certifications connected to higher education. A 1 bachelor's degree (BA/BSc) is an undergraduate qualification that one receives after completing a course of study at a college or university. A 2 master's degree (MA/MSc) is a post-graduate degree demonstrating expertise in a particular field. To do a master's degree, one must first complete a bachelor's degree. A 3 doctorate (PhD) is like a master's degree but more advanced, and it is the highest type of degree that one can receive from a university.

Your 4 qualifications usually refer to the degrees, training courses, or other official certifications that qualify you to do certain jobs.

Verbs

If you 5 take part in something (a play, competition, or sporting event), you participate in it, and if you 6 attend classes, lectures, or seminars, you are present in them. On the other hand, if you 7 play truant or you skip class you fail to attend classes or lectures without providing an explanation.

When you 8 procrastinate, you delay doing something you don't want to do for as long as you can.

If you 9 take out or apply for a student loan, you apply to borrow money from the government to cover the costs of your studies, and if you 10 win or get a scholarship, you win free tuition from a school or university because of your abilities.

When you 11 do work experience, you do short-term, unpaid work in a position related to your field of study to gain experience.

The work experience she did at the local hospital was invaluable for her medical career.

If you 12 excel in something, like a subject or skill, you are very good at it.

After completing the exercises in this lesson on Education, you can use the unit's Vocabulary Flashcards to revise and help you memorize the terms.

Be ready to talk about climate change.

Understanding Climate Change

Climate change refers to significant and lasting shifts in temperatures. It's mostly caused by human activities, especially when we release gases like carbon dioxide into the air. These gases trap heat, causing temperatures to slowly rise. This warming can seriously affect nature and how the weather behaves.

One major reason behind climate change is burning fossil fuels, which releases a lot of carbon dioxide. This extra gas makes the Earth's overall temperature go up, known as global warming. These gases work like a blanket around the Earth, trapping heat and changing how the weather works. To tackle these problems, it's really important to move towards using more renewable energy sources like wind and solar power. Also, we should focus on using energy more efficiently and preserving it to decrease the amount of these gases, which will help make the effects of climate change less severe.
