PHRASAL VERBS: FRASES VERBALES

Muchos verbos en ingls son seguidos por un adverbio o por una preposicin. Estos verbos de dos partes son conocidos como phrasal verbs (frases verbales). Algunas veces, stas frases se pueden separar para insertar un pronombre enmedio de la oracin, pero desafortunadamente no existe un indicador que nos diga cules se separan y cules no, as que lo mejor es simplemente memorizarlas. Tambin hay frases intransitivas, lo cual significa que no pueden tomar un objeto directo. Ejemplos: SEPARABLES Add up (sum) Bring up (raise) Call off (cancel) Carry on (continue) Cut off (interrupt) Figure out (understand) Give back (return) Hand out (distribute) Sumar Elevar Cancelar Continuar Interrumpir Entender Regresar Distribur

INSEPARABLES Counting on (relying on) Contar, confiar Break into (enter) Entrar Call for (require) Requerir Get around (avoid) Evitar Get in (enter) Entrar Get off (descend from) Bajar Keep at (persevere) Perseverar Look after (take care of) Cuidar

INTRANSITIVOS Catch on (understand) Entender Call up (telephone) Llamar Check out (leave a hotel) Irse Come by (visit someone) Visitar Die away (diminish) Disminuir Get around (circulate) Circular Get up (get out of bed) Levantarse Keep on (continue) Continuar

Replace the phrasal verb by circling the correct synonym in each case. 1.-You are sad because your dog died, but you have to carry on with your life. (continue / interrupt) 2.- Dad always helped us with our problems, now is time to give him some help back. (cancel / return) 3.- If I want to pass that math exam, I really need to figure out those formulas. (raise / understand) 4.- Dont worry about that lost money. You can count on me to find it. (rely on / persevere) 5.- Paco needs to get off that rollercoaster, he looks sick! (descend from / require) 6.- They wanted to get in at the concert but they did not have any tickets. (interrupt / enter) 7.- I thought chess was complicated, but I am really starting to catch on. (continue / understand) 8.- If you like pizza, you have to come by my favorite Italian restaurant. (visit / interrupt) 9.- Brenda is in trouble today! She didnt get up early, now shes late for work! (get out of bed / circulate) 10.- If Sandra keeps on talking bad things about everyone, nobody is going to like her. (cancel / continue)
