Vocabulary Learning
The Power of 'WILL' and 'MUST'
When we talk about the future or things we have to do, we use special short words. Look at these examples from the story:
1. The Future (What happens next?)
- "They will play Norway" This is a plan for the future.
- "The winner will play Argentina" We don't know the winner yet, but this is what happens later.
2. The Requirement (What is necessary?)
- "They must work hard" This is not a choice. It is necessary to win.
Word Partners: 'Good' vs 'Great'
In the text, we see people describing others. Both words mean something positive, but 'Great' is stronger.
- Good Positive (e.g., good golfer, good person)
- Great Very positive/Amazing (e.g., great players)
Quick Tip: Use 'Great' when you want to show a lot of excitement!
