Group 802 2015

 


Hi beautifuls! How are you doing? I hope just fine and not down in the dumps, since your exams start next Friday ( oral exam) Anyway, as I have told you, you will have to make a video as part of your oral exam, so to do it I'll give some topics and indications, you have to choose just one.

1. Music. You will have to talk about this topic, including the vocabulary seen in class about instruments and musicians, adjectives to describe music such as moving, catchy, monotomous, etc. and also some idioms ( music to my ears, out of tune, etc. Make sure to include linking words such as: and, but, because, however, on the other hand, etc. Also some phrasal verbs. In order to help you talk about it, I have include some questions that can guide your speech.

What kind of music do you like? Why? Where do you usually listen to music?
How does this kind of music makes you feel?
How does music affect your emotions?
Do you play a musical instrument? Would you like to learn?
Is there any kind of music that you definitely don't like to listen to? why?

Example: 

I have always liked pop music in English and Spanish as well as romantic music, because they have moving lyrics and rhythm. I also like pop music in English since I can improve my listening skill. Theses kinds of music make feel sadder when I am going through a bad experience or when I have had my heart broken. When I feel like dancing or singing I fancy listening to pop music artists such as:OV7, Yuri, etc.    I learnt to play the flute when I was at primary school, but now I can't play it. Sometimes when I have made a terrible mistake I have had to face the music and be responsible for my acts, it's when I feel depressed and want to hear something even sadder like an opera or classical music...

2. Past habits. If you choose this one your will have to describe your past habits and also talk about the things that you have had to get used to and now you are used to. You also need to include information about your sleeping habits.

Example: When I was a child I remember watching TV for more than 4 hours, I used to play in the street with my friends for hours and I didn't use to have a mobile phone. Now I can´t imagine my life without a mobile phone. When I was doing my degree, I used to be sleep deprived because I used to sleep less than 7 hours everyday during exams. Now I am used to sleeping less than 7 hours and that makes feel exhausted at times. One thing that was very difficult for me was to get used to taking care of a baby and doing the household chores, after a while I got used to it and now I find it easy to do it although sometimes I fall asleep while watching the TV...

The grade will be given according to the performance of the student according to the accuracy in grammar and vocabulary, vocabulary range, content, coherence and the correct pronunciation and intonation of the oral production.

Don't read what you are about to say, it must look natural. 
You have to make your video using your cellphone, camera, Ipad or any other electronic appliance. It must have a duration of maximum 2 minutes and you have to decrease the resolution of your video so that it is not too heavy, please the size of your video must be less than 20 megas (ideally) so you can send it to my mail or via bluetooth next Monday.

See you and take care!
