    Anne lives in London and is the daughter of Jane and Benjy. She studies German and Japanese at Eden School. A study was conducted on people bowling to determine when they smile - either while looking down the alley after a good shot or when turning around to their friends. The results showed that only 4% smile with their backs turned, while 42% smile when facing their friends. This suggests that people usually smile to be friendly rather than because they are happy.

    Anne lives in London, and she is Jane’s and Benjy’s

    daughter. She is studying German and Japanese at Eden School.


    Why is she smiling? It sounds like an easy question: she is having a good time with her friends
    at the bowling alley. Psychologists are forever arguing about this question. Some believe that
    smiling is an individual act: we smile because we feel happy ... unless we’re trying to hide our
    emotions. Others claim that we smile to build social relationships. Some animals use a grin to
    show that they don’t want to fight, for example, so perhaps our smile serves the same function.
    So, who’s right? In one study, researchers filmed people bowling. If you watch people doing a
    very social activity like this, it looks as if they’re always smiling. They stop smiling only when
    they are concentrating on their next shot. But when do they start smiling again? After each
    good shot, the researchers took photographs to identify when the smile starts – while the player
    is still looking down the alley or a few seconds later when they turn round to share their
    happiness with the group?
    And the results? Only around 4% of bowlers smile with their backs to their friends. Far more
    – 42% – smile as soon as they turn round. The conclusion: we usually smile not because we’re
    happy, but because we’re friendly.

    I. Read the statements and write true (T) or false (F).

    1. We do not use present simple to express a general truth (we smile because we feel
    happy)
    2. We use the present simple to refer to routines or habits, often with adverbs of
    frequency (we usually smile)
    3. We usually use the present simple with state verbs (feel, believe, know, smell, think,
    love)
    4. We use the present simple to refer to temporary situations (Anne lives in London and
    she is Jane’s and Benjy’s daughter.)
    5. We use the present continuous to refer to permanent situations (She is studying
    German and Japanese at Eden School)
    6. We use the present continuous to refer to situations happening now/at the moment of
    speech (After each good shot, the researchers took photographs to identify when the
    smile starts – while the player is still looking down the alley or a few seconds later)
    II. Look at the sentences in the box and circle the correct answer.

    a. Anne lives in London.


    b. She usually studies once a week.
    c. Does she like German?
    d. Anne’s friends don’t like bowling as much as she does.
    e. She is studying German and Japanese.
    f. Is she smiling at me?
    g. Her parents are not coming to the meeting.

    1. (a) S + verb (3rd person – add -s/es at the end of the verb) + the rest of the sentence/ S
    + verb (3rd person – add -ed at the end of the verb) + the rest of the sentence
    2. (b) S + adv of frequency + verb (3rd person – Vbs that end in 'y' often change 'y' to 'ie'
    before 's)/ S + adv of frequency + verb (3rd person – does not change the structure of
    the verb)
    3. (c)Do or Does (3rd person, sg) + S + verb? / S + Do or Does(3rd person, sg) + verb?
    4. (d) S + do +not +verb/ S + did +not +verb
    5. (e) S +BE + verb + ING/ S + verb + ING
    6. (f) BE + S + verb + ING? / BE + S + verb
    7. (g) S + BE + NOT + verb + ING/ S + BE + NOT + ING
