PRESENT PERFECT

El present perfect es usado para:

Acciones que comenzaron en el pasado y que no han terminado aún en el presente

I have not slept in the past two days No he dormido en los últimos 2 días

Acciones que comenzaron y acabaron en el pasado pero que su efecto continua en el presente.

I am not hungry because I have eaten an Apple No tengo hambre porque he comido una manzana

El matiz del ejemplo anterior es, que aunque hemos terminado de comer la manzana, esta acción

tiene repercusión en el presente (no tenemos hambre en el presente por habernos comido la manzana)

I have bought a car (Yo) he comprado un coche

El matiz de este segundo ejemplo es, que aunque la acción de comprar terminó, el coche nos sigue

perteneciendo en el presente (continua el efecto de la acción).

Acciones que comenzaron y acabaron en el pasado pero que el interlocutor ha situado la acción en

un intervalo de tiempo no acabado. Esta situación de la acción en un intervalo temporal no finalizado obliga

a construir la oración en presente perfecto:

Intervalo temporal no finalizado (Present Perfect):

I have been in USA this year He estado este año en Estados Unidos

Intervalo temporal finalizado (Past Simple):

I was in USA last year Estuve el año pasado en Estados Unidos

Partículas usadas en "Present Perfect"

Just (acabar de) Se usa en "Present Perfect" para decir que una acción acaba de ser terminada:

we have just eaten and we are not hungry Nosotros acabamos de comer y no tenemos hambre

Already (ya) Significa "ya", pero sólo con oraciones afirmativas y en Present Perfect:

I have already ordered the books ya he pedido los libros

Yet (ya o todavía) significa "ya" en oraciones interrogativas y "todavía" en negativas :

Have you ordered her book yet? ¿Ya has pedido su libro?

No, I have not ordered her book yet No, todavía no he pedido su libro

Ever (alguna vez) Se usa en oraciones interrogativas con la estructura "Have you ever ...?" (¿has alguna vez ...?)

Have you ever seen a camel crying? ¿Has visto alguna vez un camello llorando?



WILL - Futuro

"Will" es un modal auxiliar. Significa que combina con el infinitivo de los verbos no-modales (en muchos casos para

expresar el futuro). "Will" no es variable. No cambia con las distintas personas. Tiene una forma contraída " 'll ", la

cuál se utiliza en los textos escritos menos formales y en el inglés hablado:

Sujeto + will + infinitivo (sin "to").

I will see my friends next week. (Veré a mis amigos la semana que viene.)

He will get ill if he doesn't eat properly. (Se pondrá enfermo si no come bien.)*

I'll phone him tomorrow. (Lo llamaré mañana.)*

La forma interrogativa:

Hay inversión entre el sujeto y el auxiliar modal "will" en la forma interrogativa:

Will I see you again later on? (¿Te veré luego?)

Will you help me with my English homework? (¿Me ayudarás con los deberes de inglés?)

Do you think John and Mary will get married soon? (¿Piensas que John y Mary se casarán pronto?)

La forma negativa:

Empleamos la combinación de palabras de "will + not"

I will not (shall not) say this again! (¡Esto no volveré a decir!)

La forma negativa se suele contraer a "won't" en el inglés escrito informal y hablado:

John won't go to work tomorrow. (John no irá a trabajar mañana.)

Will - el uso en la vida real:

Predicción para el futuro.

"Will" se utiliza para expresar una predicción.

I think the weather will be better tomorrow. (Creo que hará mejor tiempo mañana.)

What do you think will happen at the end of this book? (¿Qué crees pasará al final del libro?)



CONDICIONALES

Los condicionales se emplean para especular acerca de lo que podría ocurrir, lo que puede haber ocurrido y lo que

desearíamos que ocurriese. En inglés, la mayoría de las oraciones que emplean el tiempo verbal condicional

contienen el término "if". Muchas de las construcciones condicionales del inglés se utilizan en oraciones que incluyen

verbos en pasado. En todos los casos, se componen de una proposición o cláusula con "if" y una proposición principal.

En muchas oraciones condicionales negativas existe una construcción alternativa equivalente que usa "unless" en

lugar de "if".

CONDICIONAL TIPO CERO

El "zero conditional" se utiliza cuando el tiempo al que nos referimos es ahora o siempre y la situación es real y

posible. Este tipo de condicional suele emplearse para hablar de hechos generales. El tiempo verbal de ambas

proposiciones es el "simple present". En las oraciones condicionales de tipo 0, el término "if" puede normalmente

sustituirse por "when" sin que cambie el significado.

Proposición "if" Proposición principal

If + simple present simple present

If this thing happens that thing happens.

If you heat ice it melts.

If it rains the grass gets w

CONDICIONAL TIPO 1

El "type 1 conditional" se emplea para referirse al presente o futuro cuando la situación es real. El condicional tipo

1 se refiere a una condición posible y su resultado probable. En estas oraciones, la cláusula "if" adopta el "simple

present" y la proposición principal el "simple future".

Proposición "if" Proposición principal

If + simple present simple future

If this thing happens that thing will happen.

If you don't hurry you will miss the train.

If it rains today you will get wet.



PASSIVE VOICE

Hablaremos en esta ocasión sobre un recurso gramatical de gran importancia en la lengua inglesa: la voz pasiva. Para

comenzar estableceremos la diferencia con el lenguaje que utilizamos habitualmente llamado voz activa en el cual la

acción del verbo recae sobre el sujeto mientras que en la voz pasiva la acción del verbo recae sobre el objeto.

Observa los siguientes ejemplos:

Voz Activa

The lady buys a new hat. La dama compra un sombrero nuevo.

(El verbo “comprar” recae sobre “la dama” indicando que ella es quien realiza la acción)

Voz Pasiva

A new hat is bought by the lady. Un nuevo sombrero es comprado por la dama.

(En este caso interesa que “un nuevo sombrero es comprado” sin demasiada importancia de quien realiza la acción)

Para construir la voz pasiva es necesario que la oración en voz activa cuente con objeto directo, es decir que

responda a la pregunta “¿qué cosa?”, por ejemplo:

My sister lost the keys. Mi hermana perdió las llaves.

¿Qué cosa perdió mi hermana? Las llaves (éste es el objeto directo)

Luego el objeto directo establecido pasará a ocupar el lugar de sujeto, elsujeto de la voz activa pasa a ser

complemento agente acompañado de la preposición BY y el verbo principal se coloca en pasado participio

acompañado por el verto TO BE en el tiempo que se encuentra la voz activa. Por ejemplo:

My sister lost the keys. The keys were lost by my sister.

Observe en la oración pasiva que “the keys” ocupan el lugar de sujeto, “by my sister” es el complemento agente y el

verbo principal está ahora en pasado participio acompañado por el verbo to be (were) enpasado simple ya que la

oración activa se encontraba en ese tiempo verbal.

Another way many people are using their computers is to play games. Gamers make up a huge percentage

of computer users and with today’s computer graphics and user friendly interface; it gives the user playing

the game a sense of competition unlike no other one has experienced before. People are also using their

computers for knowledge and research. I can remember back in the 80’s when encyclopedia sales were

booming; virtually every household on my block had a bookshelf full of them. Now, in my opinion there’s no

need for them to be sitting there collecting dust. Don’t get me wrong, they came in handy back then for

research papers or general information for school, but now computers and the world wide web gives you

those needed resources and a whole lot more.

Many people also use their computers for business purposes and incidentally, many businesses require

their employees to have computer skills as well. A computer with the proper business software can keep

businesses running very smoothly. From scheduling appointments to printing receipts and tracking sales,

computers have become a necessity and a valuable asset for most businesses today. And whether a

person or company has a typical brick and mortar business or a home business, the time saving aspect of

using the computer pays for itself. Additionally, with today’s need for businesses to have an on-line

presence, more businesses have increased their sales and clientele by developing a business

website. Business owners may hire someone to develop their websites or to keep operating costs to a

minimum; they even develop their own websites if they have acquired those necessary webmaster skills.

But no matter what avenue they take computer savvy business owners tend to be more productive and

profitable with an on-line presence today.

Let’s face it, television as we know it will never go away and will only get better as technology

breakthroughs are discovered, same goes for our computers. They are getting more affordable, faster and

more user friendly every day. Having a good computer and the computer skills to use it has become one of

a person’s most valuable assets in society today.

Computer history The history of computers and how they have progressed over the years is another great way get a better understanding of computers. There is no easy answer to this question due to the many different classifications ofcomputers. The first mechanical computer, created by Charles Babbage in 1822, doesn't really resemble what most would consider a computer today. Therefore, this document has been created with a listing of each of the computer firsts, starting with the Difference Engine and leading up to the computers we use today. The word "computer" was first recorded as being used in 1613 and originally was used to describe a human who performed calculations or computations. The definition of a computer remained the same until the end of the 19th century, when the industrial revolution gave rise to machines whose primary purpose was calculating. In 1822, Charles Babbage conceptualized and began developing the Difference Engine, considered to be the first automatic computing machine. The Difference Engine was capable of computing several sets of numbers and making hard copies of the results. Babbage received some help with development of the Difference Engine from Ada Lovelace, considered by many to be the first computer programmer for her work and notes on the Difference Engine. Unfortunately, because of funding, Babbage was never able to complete a full-scale functional version of this machine. In June of 1991, the London Science Museum completed the Difference Engine No 2 for the bicentennial year of Babbage's birth and later completed the printing mechanism in 2000.

In 1837, Charles Babbage proposed the first general mechanical computer, the Analytical Engine. The Analytical Engine contained an Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU), basic flow control, and integrated memory and is the first general-purpose computer concept. Unfortunately, because of funding issues, this computer was also never built while Charles Babbage was alive. In 1910, Henry Babbage, Charles Babbage's youngest son, was able to complete a portion of this machine and was able to perform basic calculations. The Z1 was created by German Konrad Zuse in his parents' living room between 1936 and 1938. It is considered to be the first electro-mechanical binary programmable computer, and the first really functional modern computer. The Turing machine was first proposed by Alan Turing in 1936 and became the foundation for theories about computing and computers. The machine was a device that printed symbols on paper tape in a manner that emulated a person following a series of logical instructions. Without these fundamentals, we wouldn't have the computers we use today. The Colossus was the first electric programmable computer, developed by Tommy Flowers, and first demonstrated in December 1943. The Colossus was created to help the British code breakers read encrypted German messages. Short for Atanasoff-Berry Computer, the ABC began development by Professor John Vincent Atanasoff and graduate student Cliff Berry in 1937. Its development continued until 1942 at the Iowa State College (now Iowa State University). The ABC was an electrical computer that used vacuum tubes for digital computation, including binary math and Boolean logic and had no CPU. The ENIAC was invented by J. Presper Eckert and John Mauchly at the University of Pennsylvania and began construction in 1943 and was not completed until 1946. It occupied about 1,800 square feet and used about 18,000 vacuum tubes, weighing almost 50 tons. Although the Judge ruled that the ABC computer was the first digital computer, many still consider the ENIAC to be the first digital computer because it was fully functional.

Are we ready for Formula E's driverless Roborace? By Chris Bruce

Roborace will take drivers out of motorsports next year by bringing autonomous electric vehicles to the

track as a support series for the FIA Formula E Championship's 2016-2017 season. The driverless

racecars will attempt to push the development of the cutting-edge tech through competition, and spectators

will be able to check them out in cities around the world.

All of these electric racecars will be mechanically identical, but the squads will compete with their own

algorithms and artificial intelligence. The one-hour races will run before the main event from Formula E, and

the organizers will try to gather 10 teams to field two driverless vehicles each for the inaugural season. One

of these crews will be a crowd-sourced effort from a community of experts.

Forget Autonomous Cars—Autonomous Ships Are Almost Here

If Rolls-Royce has its way, commercial vessels will soon have no crew on board

By OSKAR LEVANDER Posted 28 Jan 2017 | 17:00 GMT

It’s midnight on the North Atlantic, where a massive container ship receives the latest weather report.

There’s a nasty storm brewing ahead. Quietly, the ship changes course and speed, to skirt the worst of it

and ensure an on-time arrival at its destination. The ship’s owners and the harbormaster at its next port of

call are advised of the revised route. And as it nears shore, the giant ship must correct course once again,

this time to steer clear of a fishing vessel off its starboard bow.

Just another day for trans-Atlantic shipping, it might seem. In fact, it’s not. You see, this ship has no one

aboard. It’s commanded from an operating center on the other side of the world, where technicians are

monitoring and controlling this vessel and others like it through a satellite data link—that is, when the ship

isn’t just controlling itself.

Grammar:

Superlative

Although robotic ships of this sort are some ways off in the future, it’s not a question of if they will happen

but when. My colleagues and I at Rolls-Royce anticipate that the first commercial vessel to navigate entirely

by itself could be a harbor tug or a ferry designed to carry cars the short distance across the mouth of a

river or a fjord and that it or similar ships will be in commercial operation within the next few years.

Remotely controlled ships, piloted by people on shore, and autonomous ships, which can take actions for

themselves, are the latest beneficiaries of increasing digital connectivity and intelligence. These

developments in electronic sensors, telecommunications, and computing have sparked interest in a range

of autonomous vehicles including cars, planes, helicopters, trains, and now ships.

In particular, Rolls-Royce has mounted a joint industry project in Finland called Advanced Autonomous

Waterborne Applications (AAWA). The participants hope to create the technology for a remotely controlled

or fully autonomous ship that will operate in coastal waters before the end of the decade.

Piaggio's Cargo Robot Uses Visual SLAM to Follow You Anywhere

By Evan Ackerman Posted 2 Feb 2017 | 22:20 GMT

Making a fully autonomous delivery robot (whether it’s flying or not) is a very hard problem. Your robot has

to be prepared to operate all alone in unstructured environments, and it has to do so both reliably and

efficiently. A new robot introduced this week by Piaggio Fast Forward (herein abbreviated “PFF”), a division

of Italian vehicle manufacturer Piaggio, is getting in on autonomous stuff-moving, but they’re taking a

slightly different approach.

Rather than try to develop a fully autonomous delivery robot from scratch, PFF is instead starting with

something simpler: A pleasingly roundish robot called Gita (“gee-tah”) that will follow you around, carrying

19 kilograms of tools, groceries, or whatever you want.

Grammar HAVE to …. -LY (adverbs) Verb phrase (get in) Present continuous WILL prediction

The robot is able to follow you around by comparing its own point-cloud map to another map generated by

a special camera belt worn by the user. The robot and the user’s belt communicate over a dedicated Wi-Fi

network. This allows approach lets the robot track you even if you turn a corner and it loses line-of-sight.

Gita navigates by using stereo cameras to generate point-cloud maps. After traveling a route just once

while following a person, the robot might be able to collect enough point-cloud data to travel the same route

again on its own. And different Gitas can all share point-cloud data with each other, so even if your

particular robot hasn’t traveled a route, it will still be able to move autonomously as long as another Gita

has gone before it.

The robot has obstacle detection and avoidance capabilities (using vision and ultrasonic sensors), and if it

gets stuck, it’ll send you a signal for help.

Software Engineers Are the Heroes of New Computer History Museum Exhibit

By Tekla S. Perry Posted 26 Jan 2017

A museum dedicated to collecting and displaying the artefacts of computing history, like pieces of the

ENIAC and the Apple I, has turned its focus on something far less tangible—software engineering. This

Saturday, the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, Calif., opens a new exhibition to the public:

“Make Software: Change the World!” The US $7 million exhibit includes a large interactive component—

hands on tasks and games designed for children approximately aged ten and up. That age target was

picked, museum vice president Kirsten Tashev said, because it is during the middle school years that

children start thinking seriously about what they want to do with their lives. The exhibit also aims to show

tourists, who represent 40 percent of the museum’s visitors, what Silicon Valley is all about, and to help

local software engineers explain what their careers involve to their children and parents. “This exhibit

makes them look cooler to their kids,” says Tashev.

Grammar To + -ING Present perfect Passive voice Phrasal verb: turn sth on hand on TO of purpose Comparatives _ING words

Selecting exactly what software developments could best tell the story of software engineering was a

challenge for curators. The team came up with a list of 100 important applications of software likely to be

familiar to the average person today, and whittled that list down to seven projects, dividing them into three

thematic areas:

Perception and Reality, which tells the history of photo editing, culminating with Photoshop, and of digital music, in particular, the MP3 (and lets visitors test their ears in distinguishing between different recording technologies).

Life and Death, which tells the story of the development of the MRI (and lets visitors try their hands at MRI

interpretation) and of car crash simulation Knowledge and Belonging, which goes behind the scenes of Wikipedia to explain the world of the

Wikipedians, looks at World of Warcraft, and describes the development and impact of texting (a speed-texting challenge in this section is likely to be a hit among teen visitors; advice to the museum staff—you’ll need a couple more stations for this one).

MWC 2017 showed us the power of nostalgia

https://www.engadget.com/2017/03/03/mwc-2017-showed-us-the-power-of-nostalgia/

By Cherlynn Low

Struggling to stand out, companies are vying for your attention by reminding you of the good old days.

Indeed, the Nokia 3310 is the biggest, most hyped news out of MWC2017. And it's not the only old-school,

throwback gadget to launch here at the show. Companies are clearly looking to the past for inspiration and

capitalizing on your love of the good ol' days.

GRAMMAR Gerunds Superlatives

Another revived brand that drew the attention of longtime fans was BlackBerry. After declaring it would no

longer make phones, the company decided to license its name and software to Chinese electronics maker

TCL. At the show, TCL officially unveiled the KEYone, which packs the BlackBerry physical keyboard that

fans love, as well as a suite of the security and communications software that the brand is known for.

GRAMMAR

That – Which (relative pronoun) Gerunds Comparative as well as

Perhaps the best part about all the new-old tech that's shown up at MWC is how they've blended today's

technology with the good things we remember about the past. The new Nokia 3310 looks almost identical

to the original, except it's lost weight and now comes in some bright colors. The BlackBerry's keyboard is

springy and makes typing easy, but it also adds nifty new features like 52 one-touch shortcut keys and acts

as a touchpad.
