Unit 9 - Reading

CITES OF THE FUTURE

In the future, cities won't be as we know them. They will be very different. First, they will be bigger than they are today because all the people who live in small towns will move to the city, so small towns will no longer exist.

We won't have most of the things we can find today in the cities. For example, there won't be any supermarkets. We will do the shopping in Internet. We will buy everything we need to eat with a computer, and robots will deliver all the things we buy.

Internet will be very cheap and there will be computers in all the houses. Robots will do most of the hard work, so we will work from home with our computers. Factories, offices or banks will not exist.

Cars and buses will be more efficient and they won't pollute because they will be electric and they won't consume petrol. Some of them will fly, so we will travel very fast.

Can you imagine how your city will be in the future?

1. Write TRUE or FALSE

a) Cities will be small.

b) People from small towns will go to the cities.

c) We will use the computers to buy everything we need.

d) We won't work in offices, banks or factories.

e) All cars will fly.

2. Read and answer these questions about the text.
   a) Will people live in small towns?
   b) Where will we do our shopping?
   c) Who will do the hard work?
   d) Why will cars and buses be very efficient?

TERM 2 PROJECT - AN ORAL EXPOSITION

En este mes vamos a trabajar la exposición oral. Podemos trabajar en grupos de hasta cinco personas y haremos lo siguiente:

1º Tendreis que buscar una foto de una persona y describirla utilizando todo lo que ya hemos aprendido:

• descripción física,
  
• descripción de la ropa,
  
• descripción de acciones, es decir, ¿qué está haciendo en la foto?
  

2º Una vez que hayamos descrito a la persona, enseñaremos la descripción al profesor para que la corrija.

3º Una vez que sepamos en qué nos hemos equivocado, corregimos nuestra redacción y la pasamos a una presentación de diapositivas (Impress) junto a los miembros del grupo.
Recuerda que cada grupo debe describir a cinco personas, independientemente del número de integrantes (aunque sean menos de cinco).

4º Cuando terminemos la presentación, cada miembro del grupo se aprende una desciripción que deberá decir a todos sus compañeros de clase y que NO PODRÁ LEER, si bien podrá usar la presentación de diapositivas para que se vea la foto.
