Try to remember these useful phrases

SPEAKING FOCUS

Beginning a description

In this photo, I can see …/ there is …/there are … This photo shows …

Saying where (place)  There are … so I think they’re in a street/

in an art gallery/ at a concert, etc.

Saying where (in the photo)  in the background/in the middle/

in the foreground/ on the left/on the right/in front of/behind/next to

Speculating He / She looks shy/bored/tired, etc. She’s probably … Perhaps/Maybe/I imagine/I’m sure he’s very proud.

Giving your opinion  I think … I don’t think   Personally, … In my opinion,

3.Teacher:  And now we will listen to a description and decide which photo is described. Exercise 3 (CB, p. 42, Audioscript 1.57)

(Students are listening to audio and completing the description with words and phrases in the Speaking Focus) – Ex. 4, p. 42

Photo C (it describes the street artist)

In this photo I can see a street artist drawing a portrait on the pavement. In the background there are some people watching him. They’re wearing shorts and T-shirts, so I think it’s summer.

The street is quite crowded, so perhaps this is a tourist area. The street artist has got dark hair and he’s wearing jeans and a bright green T-shirt. He looks quite young. Next to him is a picture and he’s copying it. In my opinion, he’s a very good artist. I imagine he’s going to collect money from the people who are watching him. Personally, I’d give him some money because I think he’s done a good job

4. Teacher: Complete the description with words and phrases in the SPEAKING FOCUS. Then listen again and check

(1)___________I can see a street artist drawing a portrait on the pavement. (2)_______________there are some people watching him. They’re wearing shorts and T-shirts, so (3)____________it’s summer.

(8)_________I’d give him some money because I think he’s done a good job

(Students put down all words and phrases in their copy-books)

5. EXTRA ACTIVITY

Teacher:

I know my dear friends that you have a lot of photos from concerts, museums and art galleries…so, to practice the phrases let’s describe your photos. Try to use SPEAKING FOCUS box as a model.

(Students show their photos and describe them)

Teacher: And now we’re going to describe Photo B and C after listening to audio, so let’s play the recording  (Exercise 7, page 42 , audi 1.58)

Photo A

In this photo there are some young people at a music festival. I think it’s summer because some people are wearing sunglasses and baseball hats. In the middle of the picture there’s a girl on a man’s shoulders. She’s wearing stripey trousers, a blue top and lots of bracelets. She looks very happy and I think she’s moving her arms to the music. In the background there’s a stage and I think a band is playing. The general atmosphere in the photo is happy and excited because people are smiling and some people have their arms in the air. Personally, I don’t like crowded places. I prefer listening to music on my phone.

Photo B

This picture shows a room in an art gallery. In the background there’s a red wall and on the wall is a classical painting of a woman and some children. There’s a woman standing in front of the painting, and two people sitting on a seat, also in front of the painting. In the foreground there are three children. I imagine they’re about nine or ten years old. Maybe they’re with the woman in the background. They’re wearing jeans and hoodies, so I imagine it’s spring or autumn, or maybe it’s cold in the art gallery. I don’t think they’re interested in the paintings, and they look bored. They’re playing on their phones. Personally, I think they’re too young to enjoy this exhibition.
