e/ou colegas de estudo: passei o final de semana fazendo a declaracao, recebi uma mega restituicao e vou usar a grana pra viajar o mundo sao alguns exemplos.So nao vale fazer maracutaia (to fraud it) pra aumentar a restituicao, heim! De fato, a carga tributaria (tax burden) brasileira e pesadissima, mas ainda acredito que a honestidade fala mais alto (honesty prevails). Se servir de consolo, o IR brasileiro nao e o maior do mundo, na Suecia a aliquota chega aos 58,2%, na Alemanha o valor tambem passa dos 50%. Claro que la o cidadao ve isso revertido na qualidade dos servicos publicos, mas essa e outra historia.Aproveito para dar um alerta aos intercambistas leitores do blog: nao sei a respeito de outros paises, mas quem estudou ingles nos Estados Unidos no ano de 2011 precisa verificar se esta obrigado ou nao a fazer a declaracao (whether he is required or not to file) por conta do periodo em que residiu no pais. A intercambista Baunilha, que mantem um blog no site da STB, fez um post bem completo e explicativo sobre o assunto. Vale a pena dar uma olhada (Its worth taking a look at this): Atencao estudantes nos EUA enviem os formularios de imposto ate 17 de abril.Voltando ao vocabulario, vejam alguns termos sobre o assunto:1 Fazer/entregar a declaracao to file the income tax returnEvery year millions of people file federal income tax returns even though they are not required to.Todos os anos, milhoes de pessoas declaram imposto de renda mesmo nao sendo obrigadas a faze-lo.2 Declarar alguem como dependente to claim someone as a dependentIs there an age limit on claiming my child as a dependent?Ha limite de idade para declarar meu filho como dependente?3 Receber restituicao to receive a tax refundThis year she received a tax refund instead of having to pay.Este ano ela teve imposto a restituir em vez de a pagar.4 Ser dedutivel to be deductibleThe cost of drugs is deductible only for drugs that require a prescription.Somente o custo com medicamentos que requerem prescricao medica e dedutivel (da base do imposto).5 Cair na malha fina to get audited by the federal revenue serviceKeep all supporting documentation. No receipts equals no deduction if you get audited.Mantenha toda a documentacao suporte. A falta de recibos resulta em impossibilidade de deducao dos valores caso voce caia na malha fina.6 Fazer uma declaracao retificadora to file a correct formIf you list an incorrect figure you will need to file a correct form.Se voce listar um valor incorreto voce tera que fazer uma declaracao retificadora.Outros termos relacionados ao assunto podem (e devem) ser adicionados no campo de comentarios abaixo.I hope you all get a very large tax return!Fonte:http://www.englishexperts.com.br

Lembrem-se que ele se chama Present Perfect por uma razao: tem sempre algo relacionado com o presente de quem fala ou da situacao da qual se fala. Comecemos com alguns exemplos:I have lost my car keys. (Perdi as chaves do meu carro. Nao estou com elas agora, portanto nao posso entrar no carro.)Have you done your homework? (Fizeram a tarefa? Pergunta a professora querendo ver a tarefa feita agora.)I have broken a glass. (Quebrei um copo. Ha cacos de vidro por todos os lugares.)Why can t John buy that new car? He has lost his job. (Por que John nao pode comprar aquele carro novo? Ele perdeu seu emprego. Agora nao tem dinheiro para comprar o carro.)Viram a conexao entre o passado e o presente?Let s continue ...O Present Perfect tambem e usado com uma serie de adverbios:JUST: indica que a acao acabou de acontecer. He has just finished doing his homework. (Ele acabou de terminar de fazer sua tarefa.)EVER: alguma vez na vida. Have you ever gone hiking in the mountains? (Voce ja foi fazer trilha nas montanhas?)ALREADY: ja (nas frases afirmativas). I have already been to China. (Eu ja estive na China.)NEVER: nunca. I have never seen such a beautiful thing. (Nunca vi coisa tao Linda.)YET: 1. ja (quando se espera que a resposta seja afirmativa) Have you done the dishes yet? (Ja lavou a louca? Era esperado que voce a lavasse.) 2. ainda (em frases negativas) No, I haven t done the dishes yet. (Nao, nao lavei a louca ainda.)SINCE desde. I have been a teacher since 1992. (Sou professor desde 1992.)FOR ha, por, faz. I haven t seen him for a long time. (Nao o vejo ha/por/faz muito tempo.)Mais Dicas ImportantesQuando a pergunta contiver WHEN nunca use o Present Perfect, sempre use o Simple Past: When did you start studying English?O Present Perfect tambem e usado para indicar a quantidade de vezes que a pessoa faz algo. Por exemplo: This is the first time I ve come here. (E a primeira vez que venho aqui.) She hasn t been here lately. (Ela nao tem vindo aqui ultimamente.) HAPPY THANKSGIVING!Saiba o que e o Dia de Acao de Gracas e porque e comemorado nos EUA:On the fourth Thursday of November, Americans celebrate Thanksgiving, a national holiday honoring the early settlers and their harvest feast known as the first Thanksgiving.Native AmericansLong before settlers came to the East Coast of the United States, the area was inhabited by many Native American tribes. The area surrounding the site of the first Thanksgiving, now known as southeastern Massachusetts and eastern Rhode Island had been the home of the Wampanoag people for over 12,000 years, and had been visited by other European settlers before the arrival of the Mayflower. The native people knew the land well and had fished, hunted, and harvested for thousands of generations.The SettlersThe people who comprised the Plymouth Colony were a group of English Protestants who wanted to break away from the Church of England. These separatists initially moved to Holland and after 12 years of financial problems, they received

FORM[has/have + past participle]Examples:You have seen that movie many times.Have you seen that movie many times?You have not seen that movie many times.Complete List of Present Perfect FormsUSE 1 Unspecified Time Before NowWe use the Present Perfect to say that an action happened at an unspecified time before now. The exact time is not important. You CANNOT use the Present Perfect with specific time expressions such as: yesterday, one year ago, last week, when I was a child, when I lived in Japan, at that moment, that day, one day, etc. We CAN use the Present Perfect with unspecific expressions such as: ever, never, once, many times, several times, before, so far, already, yet, etc.Examples:I have seen that movie twenty times.I think I have met him once before.There have been many earthquakes in California.People have traveled to the Moon.People have not traveled to Mars.Have you read the book yet?Nobody has ever climbed that mountain.A: Has there ever been a war in the United States?B: Yes, there has been a war in the United States.How Do You Actually Use the Present Perfect?The concept of "unspecified time" can be very confusing to English learners. It is best to associate Present Perfect with the following topics:TOPIC 1 ExperienceYou can use the Present Perfect to describe your experience. It is like saying, "I have the experience of..." You can also use this tense to say that you have never had a certain experience. The Present Perfect is NOT used to describe a specific event.Examples:I have been to France.This sentence means that you have had the experience of being in France. Maybe you have been there once, or several times.I have been to France three times.You can add the number of times at the end of the sentence.I have never been to France.This sentence means that you have not had the experience of going to France.I think I have seen that movie before.He has never traveled by train.Joan has studied two foreign languages.A: Have you ever met him?B: No, I have not met him.TOPIC 2 Change Over TimeWe often use the Present Perfect to talk about change that has happened over a period of time.Examples:You have grown since the last time I saw you.The government has become more interested in arts education.Japanese has become one of the most popular courses at the university since the Asian studies program was established.My English has really improved since I moved to Australia.TOPIC 3 AccomplishmentsWe often use the Present Perfect to list the accomplishments of individuals and humanity. You cannot mention a specific time.Examples:Man has walked on the Moon.Our son has learned how to read.Doctors have cured many deadly diseases.Scientists have split the atom.TOPIC 4 An Uncompleted Action You Are ExpectingWe often use the Present Perfect to say that an action which we expected has not happened. Using the Present Perfect suggests that we are still waiting for the action to happen.Examples:James has not finished his homework yet.Susan hasn't mastered Japanese, but she can communicate.Bill has still not arrived.The rain hasn't stopped.TOPIC 5 Multiple Actions at Different TimesWe also use the
Present Perfect to talk about several different actions which have occurred in the past at different times. Present Perfect suggests the process is not complete and more actions are possible.Examples:The army has attacked that city five times.I have had four quizzes and five tests so far this semester.We have had many major problems while working on this project.She has talked to several specialists about her problem, but nobody knows why she is sick.Time Expressions with Present PerfectWhen we use the Present Perfect it means that something has happened at some point in our lives before now. Remember, the exact time the action happened is not important.Sometimes, we want to limit the time we are looking in for an experience. We can do this with expressions such as: in the last week, in the last year, this week, this month, so far, up to now, etc.Examples:Have you been to Mexico in the last year?I have seen that movie six times in the last month.They have had three tests in the last week.She graduated from university less than three years ago. She has worked for three different companies so far.My car has broken down three times this week.NOTICE"Last year" and "in the last year" are very different in meaning. "Last year" means the year before now, and it is considered a specific time which requires Simple Past. "In the last year" means from 365 days ago until now. It is not considered a specific time, so it requires Present Perfect.Examples:I went to Mexico last year.I went to Mexico in the calendar year before this one.I have been to Mexico in the last year.I have been to Mexico at least once at some point between 365 days ago and now.USE 2 Duration From the Past Until Now (Non-Continuous Verbs)With Non-Continuous Verbs and non-continuous uses of Mixed Verbs, we use the Present Perfect to show that something started in the past and has continued up until now. "For five minutes," "for two weeks," and "since Tuesday" are all durations which can be used with the Present Perfect.Examples:I have had a cold for two weeks.She has been in England for six months.Mary has loved chocolate since she was a little girl.Although the above use of Present Perfect is normally limited to Non-Continuous Verbs and non-continuous uses of Mixed Verbs, the words "live," "work," "teach," and "study" are sometimes used in this way even though they are NOT Non-Continuous Verbs.ADVERB PLACEMENTThe examples below show the placement for grammar adverbs such as: always, only, never, ever, still, just, etc.Examples:You have only seen that movie one time.Have you only seen that movie one time?ACTIVE / PASSIVEExamples:Many tourists have visited that castle. ActiveThat castle has been visited by many tourists. Passive
Em ingles, temos, dentre outras, as seguintes preposicoes: at, on, in, cujo emprego pode ser utilizado, via de regra:Em se tratando de LUGAR, regra geral, on significa sobre, in quer dizer dentro e at acaba sendo aplicado para os demais casos.Ex1: The book is on the table(O livro esta sobre a mesa)The book is in the box(O livro esta dentro da caixa)You can find the book at the library(Voce pode achar o livro na biblioteca)The sign is at the door(O aviso esta na porta)Alice is at home (Alice esta em casa)Em se tratando de TEMPO, regra geral, on e utilizado para dias e datas, in para periodos (de meses, anos, etc.) e at para horas.Ex2: See you on Monday(Te vejo na segunda) Sheila will be back on your birthday(Sheila estara de volta no seu aniversario)Life was better in the 70s(A vida era melhor nos anos setenta)Rita will buy a car in a couple of months(Rita comprara um carro em dois meses)Paul is arriving at nine oclock(Paul esta chegando as nove horas)Luch will be served at noon(O almoco sera servido ao meio-dia)See you at night(Te vejo a noite)To e For Preposicoes sao palavras de significado pouco claro e muito variavel. Sao mais particulas funcionais do que palavras de conteudo semantico definido. A maioria das ocorrencias de preposicoes, nao segue um padrao logico ou regular. Alem disso, entre o portugues e o ingles, as preposicoes nao apresentam uma correlacao muito estreita. Cobrem normalmente diferentes areas de significado, sendo umas de uso mais amplo que outras.E particularmente notoria a dificuldade para nos, brasileiros, quando temos que decidir qual preposicao usar em ingles, to ou for, quando em portugues a ideia seria expressa atraves da preposicao para. Em geral, pode-se dizer que to esta ligado a ideia de direcao, movimento, correspondendo muitas vezes tambem a preposicao a do portugues; enquanto que for esta relacionado com a ideia de substituicao, intencao ou predestinacao, correspondendo, as vezes, ao portugues por. Esta diferenca de significado, entretanto, nao e sempre clara. Mesmo assim, for e to raramente podem ser usados como sinonimos.Frequentemente to e for introduzem o objeto indireto e e neste caso que as duas preposicoes normalmente correspondem ao portugues para. Objeto indireto em ingles e sempre um nome ou pronome que precede ou sucede o objeto direto nos verbos bitransitivos. Quando posicionado antes do objeto direto, nao vem acompanhado de preposicao. Quando posicionado apos o objeto direto, vira invariavelmente acompanhado da preposicao to ou for. Neste caso, a preposicao certa dependera do verbo, nao havendo regra para isso. Observe os seguintes exemplos:TO VERBS / FOR VERBS I gave a present to him. = I gave him a present.I'll show the figures to you. = I'll show you the figures.He sold a car to me. = He sold me a car.He sent a letter to Mary. = He sent Mary a letter.Can you lend this book to me? = Can you lend me this book?The boss told a joke to us. = The boss told us a joke.Who teaches English to them? = Who teaches them English?I paid $10
to the repairman. = I paid the repairman $10.Will you pass the sugar to me? = Will you pass me the sugar?Read a story to the children. = Read the children a story.I wrote a letter to my friend. = I wrote my friend a letter.Hand that book to me, please. = Hand me that book, please.He offered a job to Mary. = He offered Mary a job.He'll bring something to me. = He'll bring me something.She sang a lullaby to the baby. = She sang the baby a lullaby.I'll throw the ball to you. = I'll throw you the ball. Let me buy a present for you. = Let me buy you a present.I got some food for you. = I got you some food.She made a sandwich for me. = She made me a sandwich.Did she cook dinner for you? = Did she cook you dinner?Can you do a favor for me? = Can you do me a favor?He can find a job for you. = He can find you a job.He left a message for you. = He left you a message.Shall I pour more tea for you? = Shall I pour you more tea?Reserve hotel rooms for us. = Reserve us hotel rooms.Save the stamps for him. = Save him the stamps. Existem tambem verbos que so aceitam o objeto indireto quando acompanhado de preposicao. Exemplos:TO VERBS / FOR VERBS The teacher said "Good morning" to the students.He's going to introduce Mary to his family.I already explained the project to the staff.Mr. Cole described the new house to his wife.I sometimes speak English to (with) my wife.Bob reported the accident to the police.I repeated your ideas to my parents.He admitted his mistake to the boss.I'll mention your plan to the director.Dr. Bishop recommends this medicine to some patients.Richard has announced his engagement to his friends.It sounds good to me.The salesgirl suggested a gift to Philip. Can you carry the suitcases for me?Could you open the door for me?He asked the bank teller to cash a check for him.Doctors like to prescribe medicine for the patients.She is going to prepare the meal for the guests.I asked her to sign the letter for me.Can you hold this for me, please?I changed the traveler's checks for you.I asked the secretary to make an appointment for me.He translated an article for me.I recorded a tape for you.I'll take the car to the mechanic for you.The salesgirl suggested Philip a gift for his girlfriend.Can you play the piano for me? Na verdade, quase qualquer verbo aceita o adjunto preposicional for. Sao portanto ilimitadas as possibilidades de FOR VERBS neste segundo grupo. Observe-se que mesmo os TO VERBS, alem de aceitarem o objeto indireto precedido pela preposicao to, tambem aceitam o adjunto preposicional for, porem com outro sentido.Ex:I sent a letter to Mary.I sent a letter for Mary.No primeiro exemplo, Mary mora noutro lugar e eu lhe escrevi mandando noticias. No segundo exemplo, Mary escreveu uma carta para alguem, estava talvez muito ocupada para ir ao correio, e eu fui em lugar dela.O verbo
to go tambem frequentemente ocorre associado as preposicoes to e for. Observe-se os dois grupos abaixo:GO TO EXPRESSIONS / GO FOR EXPRESSIONS go to workgo to schoolgo to bedgo to churchgo to towngo to courtgo to piecesgo to hellgo to Porto Alegrego to the bank, go to the office, etc. go for a walk go for a ride go for a drive go for a beer go for it Uma das ocorrencias mais elementares da preposicao to e no uso do infinitivo em ingles. Isto normalmente ocorre na estrutura VERB + to + VERB. Exemplos:I have to go.I like to drink beer.Nice to meet you.I'm not able to work.He decided to leave.He helped me to find my keys.We expect to win the game.Mesmo quando nao introduzem objetos indiretos, a ocorrencia das preposicoes to e for continua dependendo do verbo que acompanham ou da expressao idiomatica em que ocorrem. Em muitos casos for corresponde a por do portugues. Exemplos:TO EXPRESSIONS / FOR EXPRESSIONS Up to dateTo my surprise, ...To the best of my knowledge, ...According to ...Apply to a university.He reacted well to my comments.I object to staying up late.I'm accustomed to working hard.I'm not used to working on Sundays.It's very sensitive to cold weather.To (for) me, it sounds good.It's interesting to me.She was invited to a party.I'm looking forward to hearing from you.It's a hundred miles from here to Porto Alegre.They raised his salary to $1,000.Don't jump to conclusions. For sure!For God's sake!For example, ...For this reason ...For the first time ...For (to) me, it sounds good.Apply for a job.Any letters for me?I feel sorry for them.He left for home.He works for a tobacco company.I sold my house for 40 thousand dollars.He charged 50 dollars for the translation.I lived abroad for 7 years.He's very strong for an old man.I'm looking for a job.He received a grant for studying medicine.I want eggs for breakfast.I wrote a check for $100.
QUE AMOR DE MAE!Nao ha explicacao para este AMOR arrebatador...AMOR que nao mede forcas para defender,E capaz de sentir dor sem doer,De chorar sem entristecer,De alegrar-se com suas vitorias e chorar em suas derrotas.Pode ser platonico a vida inteira.AMOR que quando o ve tropecar e cair, estende as maos a sorrir.Ao passar noites em claro,Dormir a noite inteira, e raro.Sente emocao em qualquer ocasiao, aja coracao!AMOR que sente ciume, mas nao toma posse.Sabe que o "barquinho" deve ser lancado ao mar.Trabalha para seus sonhos manter.Briga, mas seus brinquedos poe-se a recolher.Por mais que seja machucado, recompoe-se e volta a ficar ao nosso lado.Nunca espera nada em troca,Pelo contrario. Doa-se com toda forca.AMOR que ninguem sabe explicar, nem copiar.Parece ja nascer dentro deste alguem chamado perfeito, sem defeito.Aos olhos do mundo, nem sempre bem vista, mas por seus filhos querida.Dificil achar uma rima para um ser tao especial.AMOR igual a este nao tem igual.Que AMOR de mae!AMOR que nunca termina, mesmo sem rima e que com o tempo e como po,Termina em amor de vovo. Osy:Cada momento de sua espera em alguns dias valera a pena; Cada sorriso daqui pra frente, sera por motivos bobos para alguns, mas incriveis pra voce; Cada dia, daqui por diante voce ira alterar o tom de sua voz e falara algo como:- bilu-bilu e Quem e a lindinha da mamae?; A cada choro, voce ira aprender a decifra-lo; Assim como ira descobrir como faze-la sorrir; As descobertas estao prestes a comecar, e eu , desejo a voce uma memoria de elefante para nunca mais esquecer estes momentos inesqueciveis.E claro, toda a felicidade do mundo para a sua pequena A beleza feminina e composta de detalhes, que so grandes homens conseguem enxergar.A beleza de uma mulher se acha no sorriso e no olhar.Uma pessoa simples e bem educada mostra que tem muita beleza dentro de si. Uma mulher e como uma flor, sua beleza e deslumbrante aos olhos de quem ve.E sua Beleza e a maior de todas! Linda Estrela! Aquela que faz de simples dias Dias especiais. Que ilumina A profunda escuridao. Voce e a razao da beleza Do encanto e da magia. Voce e a presenca da ternura Com jeito de atrevida Ou com rosto de Anjo. Voce e uma estrela Aos olhos de Deus... Linda estrela Repleta de Sabedoria E compreensao. Voce sabe seduzir, Sabe conquistar... Sem seu brilho A beleza nao existiria O encanto nao seduziria. Seus olhos Hipnotizam a todos a sua volta. Seu sorriso e a arma Que acerta o alvo Chamado Coracoes, Que facilmente se torna dona deles.
