In this C2 lesson, students will review language related to changes in industry and lifestyle. They will learn how to use emphasizers to stress, amplify and intensify an idea or a statement, and reduce the importance of verbs, adjectives, and adverbs.
Introduction
First, the student reads a paragraph paying special attention to emphasizers (incredibly, extremely, naturally, simply, tremendously, merely).
Emphasizers
The student is introduced to different types of emphasizers: to stress an idea (clearly, undoubtedly, obviously), to maximize, amplify, and intensify (extremely, absolutely, tremendously) and downtoners (barely, merely, scarcely).
Then, the student practices the use of these emphasizers by filling in the gaps and circling the correct emphasizers.
