TEMA: SUSTANTIVOS CONTABLES Y NO CONTABLES
En inglés, hay algunos sustantivos que no forman el plural o que no se pluralizan,
a estos sustantivos se les llama sustantivos no contables (uncountable nouns).
Estos sustantivos se utilizan sólo de forma singular.
Por lo tanto, en inglés tenemos dos tipos de sustantivos, los sustantivos
contables, los cuales tienen su forma plural, y los sustantivos no contables:
Sustantivos
contables
(countable nouns)
Sustantivos no
contables
(uncountable nouns)
7
Car
Water
Man
Air
Key
Music
House
Salt
Cuando se usan los sustantivos no contables, no puedes usar las
palabras uno, dos, tres, etc., por ejemplo, no se puede decir:
one water, two musics (esto es incorrecto).
Tampoco se pueden emplear los artículos a/an con los sustantivos no
contables, no se dice:
a money, a music, an air (esto es incorrecto).
Cuando se utilizan los sustantivos no contables, se pueden usar las
siguientes palabras:
Money: the money, my money, some money, much money, etc.
A continuación, tenemos una lista de algunos sustantivos no contables,
recuerda que a estos sustantivos no les agregamos –s, y tampoco los usamos con
los artículos a/an porque en inglés no se pueden contar:
Lista de algunos sustantivos no contables en inglés

THE CHANGING FAMILY
American families are changing. One important change is that most
married women now work outside the home. What happens when both
parents work? Read about the Morales family.
Judy and Steve Morales have three children: Josh, 12; Ben, 9; and
Emily, 6. Steve is a computer programmer. This year, Judy is working
again as a hospital administrator. The family needs the money, and Judy
likes her job. Everything is going well, but there are also some problems.

Now that Judy is working, Steve has to help her more with the
housework. He doesn´t enjoy it.

Judy loves her work, but she feels too tired and busy. She also
worries about the children. Judy has to work on Saturdays, so
Steve and Judy don‟t have a lot of free time together.

Emily is having a great time in her after-school program. When
Judy comes to pick her up, she doesn‟t want to leave.

Unfortunately, Ben‟s school doesn‟t have an after-school
program. Right now, he‟s spending most afternoons in front of the
TV.

Josh is enjoying his new freedom after school. He‟s playing his
music louder and spending more time on the phone. He‟s also
doing a few household chores.

II. Talk about your last Christmas. Was it good? Why/ Why not?
The Christmas Man
Last Christmas was a very difficult time for me. My family and all of
my close friends were back home in Florida, and I was all alone in a
rather cold California. I was working too many hours and became
very sick.
I was working a double shift at the Southwest Airlines ticket counter,
it was about 9:00 P.M. on Christmas Eve, and I was feeling really miserable inside.
There were a few of us working and very few customers were waiting to be helped.
When it was time for me to call the next person to the counter, I looked out to see
the sweetest-looking old man standing with a cane. He walked very slowly over to
the counter and in the faintest voice told me that he had to go to New Orleans. I
tried to explain to him that there were no more flights that night and that he would
have to go in the morning. He looked so confused and very worried. I tried to find
out more information by asking if he had a reservation or if he remembered when
he was supposed to travel, but he seemed to become more confused with each
question. He just kept saying, “she said I have to go to New Orleans. “
After much time, I was able to at least find out that this old man was ropped off at
the curb on Christmas Eve by his sister-in-law and told to go to New Orleans,
where he had family. She had given him some cash and told him just to go inside
55
and buy a ticket. When I asked if he could come back tomorrow, he said that she
was gone and that he had no place to stay. He then said he would wait at the
airport until tomorrow. Naturally, I felt a little ashamed. Here I was feeling very
sorry for myself about being alone on Christmas, when this angel named Clarence
MacDonald was sent to me to remind me of what being alone really meant. It broke
my heart.
Immediately, I told him we would get it all straightened out, and our Customer
Service agent helped to book him a seat for the earliest flight the next morning. We
gave him the senior citizens fare, which gave him some extra money for travelling.
About this time he started to look very tired, and when I stepped around the
counter to ask him if he was all right, I saw that his leg was wrapped in a bandage.
He had been standing on it that whole time, holding a plastic bag full of clothes.
I called for a wheelchair. When the wheelchair came, we all stepped around to help
him in, and I noticed a small amount of blood on his bandage. I asked how he hurt
his leg, and he said that he had just had bypass surgery and an artery was taken
from his leg. Can you imagine? This man had had heart surgery, and then shortly
afterward, was dropped off at the curb to buy a ticket with no reservation to fly to
New Orleans alone!
I never really had a situation like this, and I wasn‟t sure what I
could do. I went back to ask my supervisors if we could find a
place for him to stay. They both said yes, and they obtained a
hotel voucher for Mr. MacDonald for one night and a meal ticket
for dinner and breakfast. When I came back out, we got his
plastic bag of clothes and cane together and gave the porter a tip to take him
downstairs to wait for the airport shuttle. I bent down to explain the hotel, food and
itinerary again to Mr. MacDonald, and then patted him on the arm and told him
everything would be just fine.
As he left, he said, thank you, bent his head and started to cry. I cried too. When I
went back to thank my supervisor, she just smiled and said, AI love stories like
that. He is your Christmas Man.

Read the text below. Circle a, b or c
Food can be dangerous for your health!
________________________________
When you go to a restaurant you often
think that the food you are ordering is good for you, but many restaurants serve healthy food, like
fish or salad, with a sauce or dressing that uses a lot of oil, fat, or sugar.
The British Food Standards Agency wants all restaurants to say in their menus exactly what is in
each dish, how many calories, how much fat, and what additives. They think that restaurants don´t
give their customers enough information, and that this new plan could help people to have a
healthier diet.
But chefs are not happy with the Agency´s plan. One top chef said, "People are not stupid. They
know that many sauces have butter and cream in them. But if we put on a menu that a dish has
1,000 calories, nobody is going to order it".
However, many doctors agree with the plan. Bruce Ward, Professor of Medicine, said, "People
know that cigarettes are bad for them, because it tells you on the packet. But when they go to a
restaurant they often have no idea if the food is healthy or not. Food products that have a lot of
calories, fat, and sugar need a health warning, exactly like cigarettes".

a. serve healthy food.
b. only serve fish and salad
c. serve healthy food but with unhealthy sauces.

I think it‟s a sad Christmas story. I love to read Christmas stories because they
have love, toys, color, Christmas trees, presents, carols, piñatas, candies and lots
of fun. When I read this story I wanted to cry, too. I can´t imagine and old man
suffering alone. Thanks God, there was a nice person to help him.

incredible days for me.
