In the unit we are studying we learn to talk about cities we have visited: about their physical characteristics, the way o living in those cities, their people, their atmosphere, and also about the food.

We are still using some of the questions we practiced so much last week:

What is it like? (This time I am changing the subject from she/he to it, because I am talking about a city.)
What does it look like?
How is the food?

Last Tuesday we listened to an interview of an English couple who lived and worked in New York.
Students had to answer the following questions:

1.How long have they been in NY?
2.What do they like about NY?
3.What do they think about the people?

4.What do they think about the taxi drivers in NY?

5.How do they feel about the shops´schedule?

6.Have they made any friends? Is it easy to make friends in NY?

7.What do they think about the subway?

8. What do most people do for food in NY?

9. What do they say about the working hours in NY? 

10. Why do they think they will probably move back to London eventually?

We learned words as: atmosphere, lane, deliver, (to) rush. The were many words related to speed: hurry up, fast, to be in a rush, quick, quickly.

They also use many adjectives in comparative or superlative forms. Students had to write some sentences using the comparative forms: as + adjective + as/ and short adjective + er than? or more + long adjective + than.

In our Thursday lesson we read the text called Global Pizza about the history of this dish. Students wrote and asked some questions about the text. The name for the ingredients which are on top of the flat bread is toppings. 

Students read a conversation which included questions and answers about people, food and about London. They practiced it and role played it. 

Homework

Look in the Aula Virtual for the listening called Listening London. Listen to it and write down 10 questions you would have to answer in order to summarize the interview.
