Unit 8 - Write about an experience

In 2011 my family and I went to do rafting in Sort. It was very fun and exciting because we lived toguether for a weekend.

First, I'm going to explain to you what rafting is:
Rafting is an adventure sport that is practiced in a river in a plastic boat. You can go therre with four or six people. These people have to paddle hard and the river current is what moves this boat.
Normally, this sport is practiced when the river flow is high to move this boat easly.


Second, I'm going to explain to you this fantastic weekend.

First we left Girona, and we drove for four hours. When we arrived in Sort, we had lunch and during the rest of the day we visited this town. That first night it rained a lot.

The next day we started the sport very early and it was cold. We climbed the mountain by bus. And my family and I, went down river with a monitor.

This descent was very funny and unforgettable.

And finally, the last day we went to the swimming pool in the hotel.


I want to repeat this lovely adventure!

Unit 7 - Write an opinion essay

The government plans to introduce school on Saturday mornings in order to impove the level of education. In my view, this would have some negative consequences especially for students.

I believe that a minimum or two days a week are necessary. To rest if they put another day to go to school, the students will do a revolution because sometimes we need to disconnect of school and teachers.

I think that the only poitive of this new day of school is that it will help to raise the level of the students.

Unit 6 - Discuss a questionnaire


Cris: Hey, Adam. We're doing a questionnaire about identity. Do you want to have a look?
Adam: Yeah, go on then. Ask me something.
Cris: OK, I'll ask you the interesting ones. Do you express yourself more through your hairstyle or your clothes?
Adam: Er, through my clothes.
Cris: Yes, me too. Right, do you usually know what music someone likes from the clothes they wear?
Adam: Oh, that's a difficult one. Not always, no.
Cris: No, me neither. OK. How about this one – do you prefer to hang out with a group of friends, or alone?
Adam: I prefer a group.
Cris: Oh, I don't. I prefer to relax on my own.
Adam: We're a bit different then.
Cris: It looks like it, yes.
