Monday 13^th March 2017

We learned “Comparison and Contrast” continued. First of all, the teacher told us to talk and check the homework with my friend. It was the text2 in the handout. Then, the teacher told us to read the text “Men and Women: Do they speak the Same Language?” then, I check my answers with my friend. So, it was very difficult. After that, the teacher gave us the corrective feedback.

And then, the teacher gave us the corrective feedback of the “A. Signal Expressions”After that, we set the chairs for preparing about the mid-term test. After we did it finished, we did the mid-term test.
