Homework

Write about your favourite book. What is it about? Why do you like it?

Grammar

Because – often used in the middle of the sentence instead of the beginning

eg. I decided to stay at home today because the weather is bad.

eg. My neighbours do not like us because we have a noisy dog.

These basic sentence structures help you to improve your sentence logic:

because…so
eg. I have a few days off because of CNY so I plan to go on holiday.

but…so 

eg. I was going to go on holiday last week, but the virus situation worsened so I decided to stay here.
