Last time we discussed about active
and passive voice construction.
How can we tell if a sentence is in Passive voice focuses on the object of
passive voice? the action, there is a linking verb and
the presence of the word “by”.
Correct.
How about active voice? Active voice puts more emphasis on
the doer of the action, no linking verb
used and the absence of the word “by”.
Very good.

D. Discussing new concepts and
practicing new skills #1
Today, our topic will be modals
specifically in expressing permission
and making request.
Read the following sentences:
Jenny may attend the party on
Saturday.
Would you like me to carry your bags
for you?
Could I please have a glass of water?
The words may, could, would are
examples of modal verbs or modals.
Modal verbs express permission or
request.
You can use modals like would and
could to make polite requests in
English in different ways:
When you are asking other
people to do things, you can
begin your request with Would
you or Could you.
Examples:
Would you please carry my bags
for me?
Could you please give me some
tea?
Would you please construct a Ma’am, Could you please bring the
sentence using could requesting flower pot?
to bring the flower pot?
Thank you. That’s correct.
You can also begin your request
with Would you like to…? It is a
more polite way of suggesting or
requesting something than using
Do you want to..?
Examples:
Would you like to dance?
Would you like to eat mango pie?
Who could give me an example Ma’am, Would you like to borrow my
using the subject Ipad? Ipad or would you like to buy my
Ipad?
Very good.
I want you to fill in the blanks by
choosing the correct modal to
complete each sentences. Write the
answers on your notebook.
1. _____ please open the windows a
little bit wider? (could you, might
you)
2. _____ charge your credit card?
(would you like to, could you)
3. _____ please hand my purse?
(would you, should you)
4. _____ eat in a fancy restaurant?
(do you want to, would you like
to)
5. _____ please tie my shoes? (
could you, would you like to)

E. Discussing new concepts and
practicing new skills #2
If you want to seem polite, or if
you feel that the answer to your
request might be a negative one,
you can also begin with your
request with Would you mind
rather than could you….?
Example: Would you mind
typing this report for me?
Which sound demanding, would Could you, ma’am.
you mind or could you?
Who can give me an example Ma’am, would you mind passing that
using Would you mind with the bottle over there or would you mind
subject bottle? carrying that bottle for me?
Correct.
When requesting for something
for yourself, you may begin your
requests with May I..?, Can I..?,
or Could I..? However, may and
might are thought of as sounding
more courteous and formal than
can and could. Can and could are
usually used in less formal
situations.
Example:
May I see your collection of
figurines?
Might I be able to join in your trip
to Baguio?
Who can give me an example Ma’am, Can I talk to Jonathan, Can I
using the modal Can I with the go to Jonathan’s place, Can I play with
subject Jonathan? Jonathan?
Very good.
I want you to fill in the blanks by
choosing the correct modal to
complete each sentences. Write
the answers on your notebook.
1. ____ removing your
books from my desk?
(may you, can you, would
you mind)
2. ____ I play with my
friends outside? (might,
would, may)
3. ____ I please be allowed
to watch football game on
Saturday? (would, might,
can)
4. ____ if I sat beside you?
(may you, would you
mind, could you)
5. ____ stepping off the
vehicle? (can you, might
you, would you mind)

G. Finding practical applications of
concepts and skills in daily living
Do the activity on pg. 476.
I will divide the class into pairs.
Decide who between you and your
partner will be the waiter and who
will be the customer. I will read a
dialogue and after that make your
own dialogue. Perform the dialogue
in front of your classmates
afterwards. Use what you learned
about modals to request for a service
in a restaurant.
Waiter: Good evening. I am Sam and
I will be your waiter for this evening.
Would you like to order some food?
Guest: Yes. Could I see the menu
please?
Waiter: Here it is. Could I interest
you in our special appetizer while
you are going through the menu?
Guest: Yes, that would be nice. May
I have a glass of water please?
Waiter: Certainly.
Guest: Thank You.
Waiter: May I take your order now?
Guest: Yes, I think I’m ready to
order.
