It was her giggling (咯咯笑) that drew my attention. Note taking really wasn’t all that funny.

Walking over to the offender (肇事者), I asked for the   36  . Frozen, she refused to give it to me. I waited, all attention in the classroom on the quiet   37   between a teacher and a student. When she finally   38   it over she whispered, “Okay, but I didn’t draw it.” It was a hand-drawn   39   of me, teeth blackened and the words “I’m stupid” coming out of my mouth.

    I managed to fold it up calmly. My mind,   40   , was working angrily as I struggled not to   41  . I figured I knew the two most likely students who drew the picture. It would do them some   42   to teach them a lesson, and maybe it was high time that I did it.

Thankfully, I was able to keep myself   43  .

    When there were about six minutes remaining, I showed the class the picture. They were all silent as I told them how   44   this was for me. I told them there must be a reason   45     and now was their chance to write down anything they needed to tell me. Then I let them write silently while I was seated in the back of the classroom, with tears in my eyes.

    As I   46   the notes later, many of them said something like, “I’ve got nothing   47   you.” or “I’m sorry you were hurt.” Some kids said, “We’re afraid of you.” But two notes, from the girls who I   48   drew the picture, had a list of issues. I was too   49  , too strict…

Reading those notes, I realized that over the course of this year, instead of   50   my students, I had begun commanding them to   51  . Where I thought I was driving them to success I was   52   driving them away. I had some apology to make. But the next day in the classroom, one boy and one girl each handed me a card. The one   53   by all the boys expressed sincere regret for the ugly joke. The one from the girls asked for   54  .

This was a lesson for both the kids and me. Forgiveness does not change the past, but it does enlarge the   55  .

A practical English Grammar is intended for intermediate(中级的) and post-intermediate students. We hope that more advanced learners and teachers will also find it useful.

The book is a comprehensive survey of structures and forms, written in clear modern English and illustrated with numerous examples. Areas of particular difficulty have been given special attention. Differences between conversational usage and strict grammatical forms are shown but the emphasis is on controversial forms.

In the fourth edition the main changes are as follows.

1. Explanation and examples have been brought up to date.

2. There is now more information on countable and uncountable nouns, attributive and predicative adjectives, adverbs of place, sentence adverbs, cleft sentences, prepositions, conjunctives, modal verbs, perfect tenses, infinitive constructions, the passive, purpose clauses and nouns.

3. Some material has been rearranged to make comparisons easier. For example, parts of chapters on can, may, must etc. are now grouped by functions; verbs of liking and preference have a chapter to themselves; suggestions and invitations have joined the chapter on commands, requests and advice.

4. The contents list now summaries every edition heading, and there is a new index containing many more entries references.

In this edition the sign “~” is frequently used to show a change of speaker in examples of dialogue. Note also that although the sign “="”" sometimes connects two words or expressions with the same meaning, it is often used more freely, e.g. to indicate a transformation from active to passive or direct to indirect speech.

We wish to thank all at Oxford University Press who have assisted in the preparation of the fourth edition. We would also like to thank Professor Egawa of Nihon University, Japan, Professor Rene Dirven of Duisburg University, West Germany and other colleagues for their friendly and helpful suggestions.
