UNIT 5 and UNIT 6 : MODALS

I realize that integrated skills approach help us to understand, and practice English Grammar. It allows us to gain condidence in our abilities to write accurately and very fluenty. It is important to know grammatical structures and use them correctly.
The Grammar in these units was one of the most startling for me. In these sections show the grammar structure with:
Perfect Modals that refer the future or past.
1. In an action completed before a moment of focus in the future.
Example 1:
My mom may have already gone to bed by the time, I get home tonight.
2. Most often refer to past time and mean:
a. that an action did not occur
b. we are not certain whether an action ocurred or not.
Example 2:
Vickie should have gotten my msg by now.
may
must
Should and Ought to mean:
1. an action is responsability or ethical obligation.
2. an action is advisable, a good idea.
Example 3:
Cristina should finish all her work soon.
Had better:
express advisability when we want to tell someone how to avoid an undesirable consequent.
Example 4:
Hellen had better take your umbrella. (if you don't, you'll get wet)
To develop more our abilities we should keep an "idea file" to increase our creativity and store ideas. Another idea could be to make outlines to understand the organization (reading, writing).
Finally, I am very sure that we will master Grammar course when we have understood grammatical structures in all contexts.
