Unit 7-In the spotlight/a perfect lifestyle?

Last class we worked with Unit 7 (pgs. 64-66)
We talked about adverbs of frequency and daily routines.
Also, we had a short speaking test and a quiz on Unit 6.

Seldom=hardly ever

Remember:

I usually eat lunch at 12:30 (adverbs of frequency come before the main verb)

I don´t usually eat lunch at 12:30 (between negative auxiliaries and the main verb)

I am usually happy. (after the verb "to be")

I have/take a shower

I arrive/get home
