⚡ The 'Can' Power-up

In this text, we see the word can used many times. For an A2 learner, can is the easiest way to talk about what a thing is able to do.

How it works: Subject + can + Action

Examples from the text:

  • It can split → (It is able to break into two).
  • You can charge → (You have the ability to give power).
  • You can buy → (It is possible for you to purchase).

🎨 Describing Things (Adjectives)

Look at how the author describes the battery. They use simple words before the noun to give us a picture:

  • Two smaller batteries
  • Two separate batteries
  • Bad chemicals
  • Portable battery

Quick Tip: In English, we put the describing word (like blue or green) before the object (like battery).


🕰️ Time & Numbers

Notice how the text connects percentages and minutes using to and in:

  • 12% \rightarrow 72% \rightarrow in 45 minutes.

When we talk about a change over time, we use: From [Start] to [End] in [Time].
