Party Animal

In unit 7A we learnt about how to behave at parties.  My aunt Margaret is definitely a party animal.  Click here for the recording of a conversation I had with her and answer the questions on the photocopy I gave you in class.   Answers in class.

Did you notice that I use the same questions as the ones in the speaking activity on the photocopy?  You can use these questions to practise talking on your own, or ask each other the questions after class.  The more you practise, the easier it will be to speak.
