ESERCIZI SCHEDA

Ex.1 

Candidate: Do you live in town?

Examiner: Yes, I live in town, but I don’t live in a flat. I live in a house with two floors. I think that’s more comfortable because of my family; I have a wife and two sons. Here, there aren’t a lots of high mountains, so our towns can spread out.

Candidate: How long have you been living there?

Examiner: I’ve been living there for 20 years, since I got married.

Candidate: Have you ever wished to live in a small village?

Examiner: Yes, I have. When I was young I had been watching my cousins playing happily in their house for a long time, it was in a small village, not in town. They had a farm and a lots of animals, I’ve always wanted to live like that.

Ex.3

Hi!

I’m very happy for the experience you’re coming through.

Yes, I’ve just finished my exams. I did them very well, I’m really satisfied.

Most of our group has gone on holiday. Everyone is in a breathtaking place now, like Yosemite waterfalls or Cape Town.

As for me instead, I’m definitely going to that summer course I wanted to attend, I’m so excited.

See you soon,

Annalisa.
