⚡ The 'More' Pattern

In this text, we see the word more used to show an increase. For a beginner, this is the easiest way to compare things without using complex grammar.

How it works: More + Noun → A bigger amount.

Examples from the text:

  • More power → (Less power ↔ More power)
  • More people → (Few people ↔ More people)
  • More electricity → (Little electricity ↔ More electricity)

🛠️ Simple Action Words (Present Continuous)

The author describes things happening right now using is/are + -ing. This is a key A2 skill.

  • Making (is making)
