The Power of 'AND'

In this text, we see a pattern: Action A \rightarrow Action B.

When we want to describe a sequence or a pair of ideas, we use and. It is the simplest way to grow your sentences from A1 (short) to A2 (connected).

Examples from the text:

  • "help others and set clear rules"
  • "plan their work and then they act"
  • "happy and healthy"

Comparing Things

Notice this phrase: "Working with other people is better than working alone."

To reach A2, you must be able to compare two things.

The Rule: [Thing A] + is + [Comparative Word] + than + [Thing B]

  • Better than \rightarrow Higher quality
  • More than \rightarrow Higher amount

Simple 'Must' for Rules

"People must say 'no'"

Use must when there is no other choice. It is a strong word for rules and needs.
