II. SENTENCE PRACTICE: Oral Exercises

NOTE: Written sentences tend to be longer and more complicated than spoken
sentences. Since they are printed the reader can re-read them several times
If he has difficulty in understanding them. When sentences are spoken the
listener usually only has one chance to hear the sentences. Written sentences
can be changed to spoken sentences by making them into a number of shorter
simpler sentences.

Use the examples below as a guide to change the following written sentences to
spoken sentences.
Examples:

Written: The thunderstorm is a local storm which is produced
by a cumulonimbus cloud and is always accompanied

by thunder and lightning.
Spoken: A thunderstorm is a local storm.
It's produced by a cumulonimbus cloud.

It's always accompanied by thunder and lightning.
Written: The pilot's judgement of turbulence severity may be influenced by the
length of time his plane 18 exposed to turbulence, the amount of
experience the pilot has and the type of aircraft he is flying.
Spoken: The pilot's judgement of turbulence severity may be influenced by three
things.

It is influenced by the length of time his plane is exposed to turbulence
It is influenced by the amount of experience he has. It is influenced by the
type of aircraft he is flying.
a. The upward moving air rises faster and faster until it reaches a height where the
temperature of the rising air is cooled to the same temperature of the surrounding
air.

b. An object placed in any moving air current disturbs the flow by causing the wind to
change direction of flow to go over or around the object.

c. Mechanical turbulence is caused by obstructions in the path of the wind and is not
caused by meteorological processes in the air ma88 itself.

d. The landing area may be safely upwind from an obstruction when an east wind is
blowing and yet be a turbulent area because it is downward from the same obstacle
when a west wind is blowing.
