💡 THE 'STATE' PATTERN
In this story, we see words that describe how things are or what people think. For A2 students, these are the 'glue' words of English.
The Key Word: BE (am/is/are)
Look at these examples from the text:
- The movie is about aliens. (Fact)
- Characters are not interesting. (Opinion)
- Aliens are good friends. (Belief)
Comparing the 'Simple' vs 'Complex'
| The Pattern | Example from text | Why it's A2 |
|---|---|---|
| Subject + is/are + Adjective | The story is too simple. | It describes a feeling. |
| Subject + believes in + Thing | Spielberg believes in UFOs. | It shows a personal thought. |
