All and whole


1. All and whole have similar meanings. They can both be used with singular nouns to mean complete. 

All and whole لها نفس المعنى. يستخدم كلاهما مع الأسماء المفردة ليكون معناها كاملا.

■The word order is different.
◇He lived all his life in Africa. OR He lived all of his life in Africa. (Word order: all (of) + determiner + noun)
He lived his whole life in Africa. (Word order: determiner + whole + noun)
◇I spent the whole day in bed.
◇I spent all (of) the day in bed.

2. Differences between all and whole

I learned a whole lesson in ten minutes. (NOT I learned all a lesson in two minutes.)

○We do not usually use whole with uncountable nouns.

Forgiving Is Better than Revenge



A man came out of his home to admire his new truck. To his puzzlement, his three-year-old son was happily hammering dents into the shiny paint of the truck.

The man ran to his son, knocked him away, and hammered the little boy’s hands into pulp as punishment.

When the father calmed down, he rushed his son to the hospital. Although the doctor tried desperately to save the crushed bones, he finally had to amputate fingers from boy’s both hands.

When the boy woke up from the surgery and saw his bandaged stubs, he innocently said, "Daddy, I’m sorry about your truck.” Then he asked, “But when are my fingers going to grow back?"

The father went home and committed suicide.
Think about this story the next time someone steps on your feet or you wish to take revenge. Think first before you lose your patience with someone u love. Trucks can be repaired. Broken bones and hurt feelings often can’t.

Too often we fail to recognize the difference between the person and the performance. We forget that forgiveness is greater than revenge.

Moral of the Story:

People make mistakes. We are allowed to make mistakes. But the actions we take while in a rage will haunt us forever. Pause and ponder. Think before you act. Be patient. Forgive and forget. Love one and all.



Answer the questions:


What does the story talk about?
............................................................................................

Who was rushed to the hospital?
..............................................................................................

How old was the boy?
.................................................................................................

Give the meaning for the underlined words:

.................................................................................................................

7. *Coronary Heart * not only caused by blockage of the blood flow to the heart, but make our heart less feel calm, so the beat is not stable
