The topic of this lesson is jobs and work. Sts begin by learning the vocabulary for common jobs, and how to say what they do. They then listen to a radio show, where competitors try to guess first a man’s job, and then his wife’s job. This context presents questions in the simple present in both second and third person singular, (Do you ...? Does she. . . ?) , and Sts go on to play the game themselves. There is then a pronunciation focus on the /3or/ sound.

Aspects of the US and the Americans provide the context for Sts to meet the simple present for the first time. They begin by learning a group of common verb phrases, and then, in a short text where foreigners talk about whether certain stereotypes of the Americans are true or not, see how the verb forms change for affirmative and negative forms and in the third person singular (question forms are presented separately in 3B). Sts then practice the pronunciation verb + -s or -c.s\ and then practice the vocabulary and grammar talking about themselves and about a partner.
