inglese - lezione con esercizi sulle time clauses

 Ecco una lezione e degli esercizi sulle time clauses (clausole temporali) in inglese, con relative


soluzioni!


1. Introduzione alle Time Clauses

Le time clauses indicano quando accade qualcosa e spesso usano congiunzioni temporali come:

  • when (quando)
  • while (mentre)
  • before (prima)
  • after (dopo)
  • until (fino a quando)
  • as soon as (non appena)

In una frase, la time clause può apparire prima o dopo la frase principale.

Esempi:

  • When I get home, I will call you. (Quando torno a casa, ti chiamerò.)
  • She finished her work before she went out. (Ha finito il suo lavoro prima di uscire.)

Nota importante: Dopo le time clauses, nei tempi futuri (come when, after, until), l’inglese utilizza il presente semplice anziché il futuro.

Esempi:

  • I will call you when I arrive. ✅
  • NOT: I will call you when I will arrive. ❌

2. Esercizi sulle Time Clauses

Completa le frasi coniugando i verbi al tempo corretto. Usa il presente semplice nelle time clauses per riferirti a un’azione futura.

Esercizio 1

  1. I will start cooking dinner when (you / arrive) _______.
  2. She always takes a break after (she / finish) _______ her homework.
  3. We will wait here until (the bus / come) _______.
  4. As soon as (they / get) _______ here, we will leave for the party.
  5. Before (I / go) _______ to bed, I always read a book.

3. Soluzioni

  1. I will start cooking dinner when you arrive.

Ecco una guida alle preposizioni più comuni e ai loro usi.Tipi di Preposizioni

  1. Preposizioni di Luogo:

    • At: indica una posizione specifica.
      • Esempio: She is at the library. (È alla biblioteca.)
    • In: indica un luogo chiuso o un'area circoscritta.
      • Esempio: The cat is in the box. (Il gatto è nella scatola.)
    • On: indica una superficie.
      • Esempio: The book is on the table. (Il libro è sul tavolo.)
  2. Preposizioni di Tempo:

    • In: usato per mesi, anni, secoli e periodi di tempo.
