Bu ünite, öğrencilerin ev ve mahalle yaşamı ile ilgili temel İngilizce kelime ve yapıları öğrenmelerini hedefler. Evin farklı odalarını (örneğin, living room, kitchen, bedroom, bathroom, garden) ve bu odalarda bulunan eşyaları (örneğin, sofa, table, bed, cupboard, fridge, oven) tanımlayan kelimeler üzerinde durulur. Ayrıca, mahalledeki önemli yerler (örneğin, park, hospital, supermarket, library, school, bus stop) ve bu yerlerin konumlarını belirtme becerileri geliştirilir. Yer edatları (Prepositions of Place) olan "in", "on", "under", "next to", "opposite", "between", "in front of" ve "behind" doğru ve etkili bir şekilde kullanılarak nesnelerin veya yerlerin konumu ifade edilir. "There is / There are" yapıları ile bir yerin varlığı veya yokluğu belirtilirken, "Wh-" sorularıyla (Where is...?, How many...?) konum ve miktar hakkında bilgi edinilir. Ünite, günlük yaşamda ev ve mahalle ile ilgili iletişim kurma yeteneğini artırır.
Aşağıda konuyla ilgili bazı örnek sorular ve çözümleri bulunmaktadır:
Soru 1: Which sentence correctly uses a preposition of place?
A) My keys are next to the table.
B) The cat is in front of the roof.
C) There is a book between the wall.
D) She lives on Istanbul.
Doğru Cevap: A) My keys are next to the table.
Açıklama: "Next to" ifadesi, bir şeyin başka bir şeyin hemen yanında olduğunu belirtmek için doğru kullanılmıştır. Diğer seçeneklerdeki yer edatları bağlam dışıdır veya yanlış kullanılmıştır (B'de "in front of" yerine "on" veya "under" daha uygun olabilir, C'de "between" için iki nesneye ihtiyaç vardır, D'de şehirler için "in" kullanılır).
Soru 2: A: Is there a supermarket near your house? B: Yes, ________ a big one just two blocks away.
A) there isn't
B) there are
C) there is
D) there isn't any
Doğru Cevap: C) there is
Açıklama: Soruda tekil bir varlık ("a supermarket") sorulduğu ve cevabın olumlu ("Yes") olduğu için tekil ve olumlu "there is" yapısı doğru cevaptır. "There isn't" ve "there isn't any" olumsuz cevaplar için, "there are" ise çoğul varlıklar için kullanılır.
Soru 3: Which of the following items is usually found in a bedroom?
