While

and
adverbs,
but notfunction words
like articles

and
prepositions
lof

Making
inferences
(1):Who
and
what
Often
speakers
will
not directly
state
who
is doing
on will
do
what.
In
this
case,
you
must

make
infenences
based
on
what
is stated.
This
requires
making
smart
guesses. For
example'
if one
speaker
says
he/she
needs
help
with a
science
pnoyect,
and
anothen
speaken
mentions
that
a
certain
student
is

good
at
science,
an
inference
could
be
made
that
the
finst
speaken
might seek
that
student's
help
with
his/hen
pnoject.
To
prepare students
for. this
unit,
have
them
listen
to
Tnack
22 from
Unit

4 and
write
down
the
names
of the
speakers
[Michelle
and
Ted].
Then
have
them
listen
again
and
take
notes on
what
each
speaker
is
good
at
[Answers:
Michelle-computers,
Ted-cooking].
