THE CHAPTER INCLUDES 

( Tap for quick access )

1. Conversation based on HOW TO USE ‘ HAVE’ IN DIFFERENT WAYS.

2. Different uses of ‘ HAVE’ ( 5 )

First, read the conversation carefully and try to

understand different uses of HAVE in different ways:- 

 

Surabh: Bro, Have you seen a pen? I had just

                kept here on this table.

Gaurav: No, I haven’t. Don’t you have another pen?

Saurabh: Well, I have but that was not mine.

                I had to return it to my friend.

Gaurav:  Oh, I see! Don’t worry. You have just returned.

                 Have something first.

Saurabh: No, I won’t have anything unless I find the pen. 

Gaurav:   OK, fine. Just have a nap. When you awake,

                 we both will search for it together. 

Surabh:   OK, thank you, bro. 

DIFFERENT USES OF HAVE

‘ HAVE ‘ HAS THREE MAIN USES:-

I. In a Sense of Possession

II. Replacement with Main Verb.

III. Emphasizing the Abstract Nouns 

IV. Auxiliary Verb of Perfect Tense

V. When shows Compulsion  

 

I. In a sense of Possession

HAVE is used in a sense of  Possession in

 three different ways in different sentences. 

It is categorized in the following ways as

different forms of verbs:-

a. As a Helping Verb

b. In an Essay Writing

c. As the Main Verb

 

a. As a Helping Verb

I have a pen.

Have you my pen?

Yes, I have your pen.

b. In an Essay Writing

The cow has four legs.

The dog has two eyes.

c. As a Main Verb

  Do you have my pen ?

  Yes , I have your pen.

  Yes, I do have your pen.

II. Replacement with the Main Verb

There are four Verbs that are replaced with HAVE, because their use with HAVE sounds better. Moreover, the use of such verbs directly leaves sometimes very awkward impression. So it is supposed better to replace those action verbs with HAVE

These verbs are:-

a. Eat

b. Drink

c. Take

d. Keep

a. EAT

I EAT 2 apples daily.

I HAVE two apples daily.

b. DRINK

I drink a glass of milk each night before sleeping.

I HAVE a glass of milk each night before sleeping.

Remember:

Drink is often used in a sense of having alcohol .

As a result, doesn’t leave a very good impression. So ,

it’s always better to use HAVE for ‘ drinking water or

drinking any  beverage.

c. TAKE

You can TAKE  my pen .

You can HAVE  my pen.

d. KEEP

You always KEEP your home clean.

You always HAVE your home clean.

e. BATH/SHOWER

 Go and BATH . You have returned from a long journey. ( Verb )

 Go and HAVE bath. You have returned from a long journey. ( Noun)

NOTE: In sentence one BATH is a verb while in the second sentence BATH is used as a Noun.

III. AS AN AUXILIARY VERB FOR EMPHASIZING OR HIGHLIGHTING SOME ABSTRACT NOUNS

a. Sleep
b. Day
c. Time
d. Idea

e. Bath/Shower

Examples

I had a sound sleep yesternight.

I always have a good time with you.

I have a great day always whenever I am with my friends.

You always have some good ideas in your mind.

Go and have bath ,you’ll feel somewhat refreshed. 

IV. AUXILIARY VERB OF PERFECT TENSE

And the last one, HAVE is also used as helping verb of all the Perfect Tenses.

I HAVE worked vey hard to achieve this goal. 

( Present Perfect )

She HAD galloped all her pani puri before I saw her.

( Past Perfect)

Anshika will HAVE painted her glass pot by now. 

( Future Perfect )

V. For Showing Compulsion

I have to to school daily.

 I had to go with him as it was very urgent

She will have to go with me tomorrow.

POEM: ERASE THE MEMORIES

ERASE THE MEMORIES

ERASE THE MEMORIES

Erase the memories
Bring immense pain
Each & every moment
In you.

 

Erase those never-ending guilts
You carry as a lifelong burden
Fettered your feet to
to step ahead

 

Sharpen your life with
The sharpener of hard labour
Tearing out the old unwanted pages
Colouring new ones

With beautiful shades.

 

Though some memories can
Never be erased
Some losses can never
Be compensate
As they have been penned
With a permanent marker.

 

Still take lessons from them
And start reading those
Memories in a positive tone
Passing them to
Coming generations
Brightening their future
With your life lessons.

COMPREHENSION PASSAGE : CASE BASED

COMPREHENSION PASSAGE: CASE BASED

(1) The white tiger is an offspring of the Bengal tiger, which has the necessary gene for white coloring. It has beautiful black stripes on a white coat. This species of animal has blue eyes and a pink nose .

 

(2) A pure white tiger is white without any site, which is due to the presence of a double recessive allele in the genetic code. It happens only in the Bengal tiger subspecies, and only one in 10,000 births can have it naturally. White tigers are rarely seen in the wild, and only twelve of them have been spotted in India for the last one-hundred years. Tigers have a life-span of 10 -15 years. They are solitary animals and are fond of hunting at night. Their diet consists of any animals that they can catch and can eat up to 40 pounds of meat at one time. After such a big meal, they usually remain away for several days from food.

 

(3) They are slow runners, but good swimmers. They are poor climbers and cannot climb a tree easily. They live in an area ranging from 10 to 30 square miles depending upon the availability of prey, water, and shelter. Habitat loss poaching and expansion of the human population have together contributed to their becoming endangered. They are widely hunted for their body parts which are used in traditional Chinese medicines.

(4) Genetic inbreeding is another reason for their endangerment. Due to a shortage in their number, this species of animal has been subjected to inbreeding. It has resulted in high mortality rates and severe disabilities. About 80 percent of the white tiger cubs are born with serious birth-defects related to inbreeding, and they soon die-off.

 

(5) The critical condition of this animal has attracted the attention of conservationists worldwide Woda Wildlife Federation (WWF), defenders of wildlife, and many other wildlife organizations are working with the support of the government for the cause of protecting them from becoming extinct. Once they become extinct, it will not be possible to bring them back to life.

ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS:- 

 

  • Tell the reasons behind describing the features of the White Tigers by the author.
  • Justify for providing so many details about the White Tigers in para 2 by the author.
  • ” …. only twelve of them have been spotted in India. ” What can be the reasons of the author of discussing this statement?
  • How did the expansion of the human population contribute to making the White Tigers endangered?
  • What teaching does the increasing spikes of the tiger population with the advancement of the years in the diagram try to show?
  • Tell the word which means the same as ‘ existing alone’ from para 2.
