1. Filling in the Table: Have Got / Has Got and Comparisons

The task is to look at the descriptions of each person and fill in the table with:

  • Have Got / Has Got sentences describing their features.
  • Compare sentences comparing them with another person (usually Emma or Kate, as in the example).

Example given:

Person Description Have Got / Has Got Compare
Simge short, brown eyes, pretty, fashionable Simge has got brown eyes. Simge is shorter than Emma.

Now, let’s fill in the rest:

Person Description Have Got / Has Got Compare
Okan tall, short dark hair, strong, friendly Okan has got short dark hair. Okan is taller than Tim.
Kate green eyes, chubby, kind Kate has got green eyes. Kate is kinder than David.
Tim short, short fair hair, slim, quiet Tim has got short fair hair. Tim is quieter than Okan.
Emma tall, wavy blonde hair, brave, creative Emma has got wavy blonde hair. Emma is braver than Simge.
David medium height, curly brown hair, clever, shy David has got curly brown hair. David is shyer than Emma.

Notes on Comparisons:

  • Use -er for short adjectives (e.g., short → shorter, tall → taller).
  • Use more + adjective for longer adjectives (e.g., friendly → more friendly, creative → more creative).
  • The comparison is usually made with another person mentioned in the table.

2. Correcting Mistakes in Sentences

Let’s analyze and correct the mistakes in the sentences below. If there is no mistake, put a tick (✓).


Sentence Mistake Corrected Sentence
1. He have got a long nose and he is more taller than me. “have” → “has”, “more taller” → “taller” (taller already comparative) He has got a long nose and he is taller than me.
2. I has got brown eyes and curly hair. “has” → “have” (with “I”) I have got brown eyes and curly hair.
3. This jumper is warmer than that hoodie. ✓ (No mistake) This jumper is warmer than that hoodie.
4. They has got blue bags. “has” → “have” (with “They”) They have got blue bags.
5. My cat have got green eyes and is more friendlier than yours. “have” → “has”, “more friendlier” → “friendlier” My cat has got green eyes and is friendlier than yours.
6. Your ring is more beautifuler than mine. “more beautifuler” → “more beautiful” or “more beautiful” (beautiful is long adjective, so “more beautiful”) Your ring is more beautiful than mine.
7. We have got big feet and longer toes. ✓ (No mistake) We have got big feet and longer toes.
8. These trainers are more comfortable than the boots. ✓ (No mistake) These trainers are more comfortable than the boots.

Summary of Common Mistakes:

  • Use has with he, she, it; have with I, you, we, they.
  • For adjectives ending with -er, do not use “more” before them.
  • For longer adjectives, use “more” + adjective.
  • Avoid double comparatives like “more taller” or “more friendlier”.

3. Summary Table

Task Example Common Mistakes Correct Usage
Have Got / Has Got Simge has got brown eyes. Using “have” with he/she/it Use “has” with he/she/it, “have” with others
Comparisons Simge is shorter than Emma. Using “more” with adjectives ending in -er Use either “-er” or “more” but not both
Correcting Sentences He has got a long nose. “He have got”, “more taller” He has got, “taller” (not “more taller”)

Summary

  • Fill the table by writing sentences using has got/have got based on the descriptions.
  • Make comparisons using correct comparative forms.
