Causative (uzroni) glagoli pokazuju da je neto ili neko indirektno odgovoran za


neku radnju. Subjekat ne vri radnju, ali ini da neto ili neko drugi uradi to
umesto njega. Na primer:
- Yesterday I had my hair cut. (Jue sam se oiao.)
Ja nisam sam oiao svoju kosu, ali sam dao drugome da to uradi umesto mene.
Have
Have je najei uzroni glagol. Umesto da neto sami radimo, mi have nekog
drugog da to uradi umesto nas. Evo kako izgleda forma reenice:
Glagol "to have" + objekat + past participle.
Na primer:

(Oistio sam jaknu jue.
Odnosno: Dao sam jue da mi se oisti jakna.)
- Did you have your computer fixed?
(Da li si popravio kompjuter?
Odnosno: Da li si dao da se popravi?

Get
Get se esto koristi umesto have. Na primer:
- I got my computer fixed - I had my computer fixed. Ove dve reenice znae isto.
- I got my jacket cleaned. - I had my jacket cleaned. Ove dve reenice znae isto.
Uzrone glagole koristimo i kada imamo loa iskustva. U takvim situacijama ee
se koristi have. Na primer:

U svim primerima smo koristili causative glagol "have". Medjutim, mnogi drugi glagoli

Listening skills are an essential part of any


language. There are several things one can do
for English listening practice. One of the most
common ways to do this is to watch movies.
Whether they are dubbed in your native
language or not, it is useful to hear the natural
speed in which native English speakers speak.
Your English listening will improve in no time
with this method.
In addition, there are many sites you can find
around the Internet to help. Segments for free
listening English can easily be found on
YouTube or any other video site, such as
http://video.about.com./

- Hi, I havent seen you for a few weeks. Have you moved to

part of the building. We used to be on the second floor, but
now we are on the third floor.

department has expanded.

floor is up 2 levels of stairs. Be careful because in many countries the
system is different, so The first floor is at ground level!)

- If you were to believe what we see on the TV and in the


newspapers you would think that crime was worse than ever.
- Yes, well, peoples perception of crime is often much worse
than the reality. Fear of crime is often heightened by what we
see and read in the papers, but as I said crime rates are
actually falling!

- Well according to the figures, even fraud and forgery are
down but Im not sure if that includes online fraud.

have been broken.
- So, we can all feel a little bit safer walking the streets?
- Well, according to the statistics, offences are down in all
areas.
- How about violent crime?
- Thats down by six percent (6%). Apparently, there were six
hundred and fifteen murders in England and Wales, which is
the lowest figure for 12 years. Although, that said, its still fifty
percent higher than it was in the nineteen sixties.
Notes:
a cause and effect between (more formal) = a causal connection between
high joblessness = high levels of unemployment

- The government has just


released the crime figures
for the last year and on the
surface, it appears to be
good news.
- What? So, youre telling
me crime levels have
dropped?
- Well, look at this headline
in the paper. It says Big
drop in crime as recession
outlaws fail to materialise.
It seems that the
government was expecting
the economic downturn
would bring a crime wave
with it as more and more
people became
unemployed.
- Its nice to see that the
government has so little
faith in its people that it
thinks that bad times would

A VISIT TO THE ADVISOR


Student: You wanted to see me?
Advisor: That's right. We need to have a serious talk.
Student: About what?
Advisor: Your attendance--or rather, lack of it.
Student: OK, so I've ditched class a few times . . .
Advisor: A few times? I've been told you've missed six out of eight
times in two different classes! That's really setting yourself up to
fail.
Student: Oh, come on. Those classes are really boring!
Advisor: But they're also required, so that doesn't matter. You're
about to be in big trouble.
Student: What's the big deal about missing some classes?
Advisor: The big deal is that you're here on a student visa.
Student: So?
Advisor: So if you don't attend class regularly, you won't be a fulltime student--which your visa requires. You'll be out of status.
Student: What are you gonna do? Turn me in to the Immigration
Police?
Advisor: Oh, of course I'll have to report you if you continue
missing your class, but I'm going to do something else first.
Student: Like what?
Advisor: Like faxing your father.

Shopping in America
Anna: Hi Masahiro! How's it going?
Masahiro: Fine, I guess. How about you?
Anna: Busy. Guess who's coming our way?
Will: Hi guys! What's up?
Anna: Nothing much. We just ran into each other.
Will: That's nice. So Masahiro, how's the coffee maker working?
Masahiro: Actually, it doesn't work well. It was a waste of money.
I guess I should have shopped around for a good one.
Anna: Why don't you take it back?
Masahiro: I'd like to, but I've misplaced the receipt.
Will: Well, if it's any consolation, my shopping wasn't all that great
either. I wish I'd never bought Stephanie a necklace. Just last
night she was telling me how she wished she had Liz Taylor's new
perfume.
Anna: That makes three displeased shoppers. Guess what? The
camera I bought and shipped to Mike just this morning is now on
sale! It's a pity that I bought it then. Then again, I guess I shouldn't
complain. It was a good buy, even though I didn't get the best deal
on it. Anyway, Masahiro, I suggest you look for that receipt and
just go to the Complaints Department and say "I'd like to exchange
this, please." It's as simple as that. And Will, it's not too late for
you to ask for a refund.

The Weather's Great!


Diana: It's a gorgeous day today! What do you say we take a picnic and go
down to the park?
Doug: Sounds great! Should we pack some sandwiches or pick up
something along the way?
Diana: Why don't we stop and get some fried chicken at KFC and head
down to Murray Park? Let's bring a few games, too.
Doug: Okay, I'll get the Frisbee and a softball so we can toss them around.
And... what do you think? Should we bring the dog?
Diana: Definitely. He'll love it down there.
Doug: I'll get his leash and dog dish. I'm grabbing a tablecloth, too, so we
don't have to eat on a dirty picnic table.
Diana: Good idea. I'll bring some napkins. I always get so dirty when I eat
fried chicken.
Doug: Wait a minute...
Diana: What is it?
Doug: Did you hear that? I heard thunder. A storm is coming.

The Job Interview


Ms. Ballard: I see on your resume that you worked as a manager at Computer Country. Could
you tell me a little more about your responsibilities there?
Carey Cornwall: Sure. I was responsible for overseeing about 30 employees, I did all of the
ordering for the store, and I kept track of the inventory.
Ms. Ballard: What was the most difficult part of your job?
Carey Cornwall: Probably handling angry customers. We didn't have them very often, but when
we did, I needed to make sure they were well taken care of. After all, the customer is always
right.
Ms. Ballard: That's how we feel here, too. How long did you work there?
Carey Cornwall: I was there for 3 1/2 years. I left the company last month.
Ms. Ballard: And why did you leave?
Casey Cornwall: My husband has been transferred to Emoryville and I understand your
company has an opening there, too.
Ms. Ballard: Yes, that's right, we do. But the position won't start until the middle of next month.
Would that be a problem for you?
Carey Cornwall: No, not at all. My husband's new job doesn't begin for a few weeks, so we
thought we would spend some time driving to Emoryville and stop to see my parents.
Ms. Ballard: That sounds nice. So tell me, why are you interested in this particular position?
Carey Cornwall: I know that your company has a great reputation and a wonderful product. I
have thought many times that I would like to be a part of it. When I heard about the opening in
Emoryville, I jumped on the opportunity.
Ms. Ballard: Well, I'm glad you did. Now, please tell me about...

- Hi Sarah, Im glad Ive bumped into you because I really need


to have a word with you about Mr Simpson, the fellow thats
recently been taken on to re-organize the PR department.
- Oh, yes. How are you getting on with him?
- Well, I dont really like having to say it and believe me its
nothing personal but I just dont think hes up to the job. To be
frank, I think hes way out of his depth and as you know
yourself from experience, running the PR department is a tall
order even for someone with years of experience in the field but restructuring one is a different ball game altogether.
- Do you not think that youre being just a little bit hasty in
judging him? Because after all hes only just settling in. He
hasnt had time to find his feet yet, has he? - I suppose not.
- Im of the opinion that we give him a little bit longer to see
how he shapes up before we jump to any conclusions, you
know, give him a chance to prove himself.
- Um, well, maybe youre right. Lets give it a week or two and
then re-convene.

getting on?

spoke.
- So, I take it that youre still unimpressed with his
performance, then? - Im afraid so!
- You two really havent hit it off, have you?

- One thing that you shouldnt forget is that Simpson came


to this company with glowing references and a CV that
spoke volumes about his management abilities. He was
actively head hunted by our company and the Managing
Director reckons we were lucky to get him.
- Yes, Im aware of his past record at Johnsons Ltd.
- Apparently, he was instrumental in turning the company
round and hes spoken of there very highly, so he must
have been doing something right. Hes got a real
reputation as a business trouble shooter.
- Im not disputing the mans abilities and I know all about
his reputation but it's my view that his management style
is just totally unsuited to this company.
- I know what you mean to an extent - he can be a bit
brusque and overbearing at times but Im afraid to say that
thats just something youll just have to get used to and
