heart disease kills more people per year than cancer, war, terrorism, hunger, suicide, diabetes, respiratory
diseases and mental disorders combined?
 
Did you know that…
"Pathogen" is the scientific name for "germ“? Infectious diseases are caused by pathogens. When your mom
says to wash your hands because of germs, she wants you to get all the pathogens off your hands so they won't
go into your mouth and body. Maybe after reading this, you will wash your hands a bit more!
cancers are primarily environmental diseases with 90-95% of cases attributed to environmental factors and 5
10% due to genetics?
in 5,000 years of human history, only 2 diseases have been eradicated: smallpox and rinderpest?
many common disease-causing bacteria are actually harmless bacteria that have been infected by a virus?
diabetes was the third leading cause of death by disease in America? It has increased 50 percent since 1965,
and today affects at least 15 million people.
malaria is one of the earliest ever recorded? The first record of it dates back over four thousand years.

What is an infectious disease?
 
‘infectious’ means ‘can spread from one person to another’.
 
Food and water contamination 
- Some diseases are passed on by _________food or water. This can occur in
______food or when sewage gets into the water supply. Examples of diseases that are transmitted this way
include E. coli, cholera, and salmonella.
Insect bites 
- Insects such as fleas,______, and ticks can carry pathogens (germs) that get be passed on when
they make contact with______. Diseases from insects include malaria (mosquitoes), Lyme disease (ticks), and
the bubonic plague (fleas).
Direct contact 
- Diseases are often passed from person to person by direct contact. This could include
______hands, sneezing (airborne), etc. Examples include_______, the common cold, and chickenpox.
Indirect contact 
- Some pathogens can survive for a while outside the host. They may be on _____such as
doorknobs and telephones. Many of the same diseases, but not all, that can _____through direct contact can
also be spread through indirect contact.

Malaria is a mosquito 
borne
 disease that is caused by a parasite  (a kind of pathogens). It is found in many countries
including sub-Saharan Africa, South Asia, as well as Central and South America. If a person is bitten by an infected
Anopheles mosquito, symptoms typically occur within 1 - 4 weeks. The most common symptoms include shaking,
chills, high fever, headache, sweats, body aches, and tiredness. 
Severe
 complications and death may also occur if
the infection is not treated 
promptly
.
Today, half a billion people are 
diagnose
d with it annually. Most of the cases are in Africa. Fortunately, not as many
people are killed by this disease today. But, during World War II, over one hundred thousand U.S. troops were killed
by malaria, which shows the 
devastating
 nature of this disease.
While malaria is a serious illness that can be deadly, prevention methods are available. Rarely, people can get
malaria through a blood transfusion or infants can get malaria before or during delivery if the mother is infected.
Persons who have lived or traveled to areas where malaria is present are usually 
defer
red from donating blood for 1-
3 years.
 
Now read this text about the malaria disease and answer the questions that you covered on the previous slide.

The Future Continuous Tense versus the Simple Future Tense
Grammar Time
The simple future tense 
(
will/won’t + inf
) is a verb
tense that 
is used when an action is expected to
occur in the future and be completed.
 
Example
: I will arrive at five o’clock.
Expressing Future
Eng.301 Unit 4 lesson 2 Malaria
9
I ‘will arrive’ 
is the simple future tense of the verb ‘to
arrive’. You arrive once; beyond that, you can’t keep on
arriving. However, once you get there, you may be doing
something that goes on continuously, at least for a
certain period of time.
The Future Continuous Tense versus the Simple Future Tense
Grammar Time
 
We can use the future continuous (will/won't be + -ing form) to talk about future actions that
:
 1) will/won’t be in progress at a specific time in the future
:
Examples
:
When you come out of school tomorrow, I'll be boarding a plane.
You can visit us during the first week of July. I won't be working then.
 
2) we see as new, different or temporary:
Today we're taking the bus but next week we'll be taking the train.
He'll be staying with his parents for several months while his father is in recovery.
 
It is formed using the construction
will + be + the present participle (the root verb + -ing).
Important Note
: 
The future continuous tense is only used with action verbs
, 
because it is possible to do them for a
duration.
 (
Action verbs describe activities like run, think, and see
. 
Stative verbs describe states of existence, like be,
seem, and know
.)
Examples:
I 
will be being stressed 
tomorrow during my science test. 
INCORRECT
I 
will be stressed 
tomorrow during my science test. 
CORRECT
Expressing Future
Eng.301 Unit 4 lesson 2 Malaria
10
= 
To use the will + be + present participle
construction with a stative verb would sound
very odd indeed.
Eng.301 Unit 4 lesson 2 Malaria
11
 
1) - I ______________ (to do) my homework when my father comes home.
     - Don’t worry, I _________________ (to help) you with your homework.
2) I ________________ (not to be) able to meet you because my brother and I  ________________ (to play)
soccer at school tomorrow evening.
3) Next Friday I _______________ (to study) for my French exam and my sister _______________(to practise)
her choreography.
4) When I arrive at school, my classmates _________________(to correct) their homework and my teacher
_______________ (to prepare) a new lesson.
5) When you get off the train, I _______________( to wait) for you by the ticket machine.
6) You’re carrying too much. I ____________( to open) the door for you.
 
Decide whether you have to employ the simple future or the future
 
progressive tense
with “will (be doing) / won’t (be doing)” in the following sentences.
 
Practice:
 
will be waiting
 
will be doing
 
will help
 
will not be able
 
will be playing
 
will be studying
 
will be practising
 
will be correcting
 
will be preparing
 
will open
Use of the ‘be going to future’
to express  planned actions or intentions in the future. We use it for decisions that 
we made before the
moment of speaking
.
      
e.g
. I am going to clean the car and you can pack the suitcase. (I have decided how to do it.)
 
when You are certain that something is going to happen in the future 
(
logical consequence
).
   
e.g.
 Look at that car! It 
is going to crash 
into the yellow one.
 
Form: 
 to be (am, are, is) + going to + infinitive
 
1. 
Affirmative sentences in the going to-future
e.g.
 I 
am
/ 
‘m
  
going
 
to play 
handball.
       You 
are
/ 
‘re going
 
to miss 
the train
.
 
2. Negative sentences in the going to-future
e.g.
 He
’s/ is not/isn’t going 
to play handball.
       You 
are not
/
aren’t
 
going
 miss the train.
Eng.301 Unit 4 lesson 2 Malaria
12
Other Forms to Express Future
Be going to-future
 
3. Questions in the going to-future
 
e.g.
 
Am I going to 
play handball?
         
Are you going 
to play handball?
present continuous to talk about the future
The present continuous
 
can refer to the future
. 
It shows that we have already decided
something and usually that we have already made a plan or arrangements
:
e.g
. The band 
is visiting 
Denmark next May.
        I am taking the train to Paris tomorrow.
Sentences with this use of the present continuous always 
have words or phrases 
which refer
to future time
Examples:
tonight        tomorrow       this weekend       next Monday,     next Friday
this  Saturday        next week    next weekend      next year      this evening     
etc.
