Vocabulary Learning
⚾ The 'Better' Pattern
In the text, we see: "He is better than he was before."
When you want to compare two things (or one person at two different times), use this simple map:
[Person/Thing] + is + [Comparative Word] + than + [Other Person/Thing]
Examples from the world:
- This car is faster than that car.
- English is easier than Chinese.
- Luis is better than he was last year.
💰 Money & Time Words
Look at how the text describes the future. It uses WILL to show a plan:
- Lara will stay (Future action)
- He will get (Future money)
Quick Rule: Use Will + Action for things that haven't happened yet.
- I will study.
- The team will win.
