In the presentation of the famous English-speaking city, the verb 'to be' plays a fundamental role in expressing the identity and current state of the city, as well as the qualities and characteristics of its landmarks, culture, and people. For example, 'The Tower Bridge is an iconic symbol of London, representing its rich history and connection with the world.' Here, 'is' is used to describe the singular subject 'The Tower Bridge' and to attribute the quality of being an 'iconic symbol' to it. Additionally, 'London is a vibrant metropolis with a diverse population.' In this sentence, 'is' is used with the singular subject 'London' to express the quality of being 'vibrant' and the characteristic of having a 'diverse population.' Furthermore, 'The museums in the city are renowned for their extensive collections.' The plural form 'are' is used with the plural subject 'The museums' to convey that they are 'renowned' and to describe the quality of their 'extensive collections.' The verb 'to be' thus helps to clarify the current state and existence of the city's landmarks, culture, and people, while allowing for the expression of their qualities and characteristics, which are integral to the city's identity and character.

Sometimes in English, we want to say that something is not true or that we don't have something. For example, if I have a pencil and I want to say that I don't have an eraser, I can use a negative form. Look at this sentence: 'I have an apple.' If I don't have an apple, I can change the sentence to the negative form like this: 'I don't have an apple.' Now, imagine you have a dog and you want to say that it's not small. How would you write this in English, using the negative form? Write a complete sentence explaining that your dog is not small. Remember to use the word 'not' in your sentence.

Imagine you are in a pet store and want to know more about a cute puppy you saw in the aquarium. To find out more information, you need to ask the salesperson, 'What's the name of that puppy?'. Now, think about how you would respond if the salesperson asked you the same question about a puppy you adopted. Write the response you would give using the structure 'The name of the puppy is [Puppy's Name].' Remember to use the name of a cute puppy you know or imagine.
