Wednesday's Assignment

Who's responsible when there's a leak in your apartment? Or when the light bulb is blown? Or the fuse? Or the toilet stopped up? Who pays? Discuss these with a partner.

Ever needed something quick? How quick was the service you got from the landlord or super?

Here are your tasks:

1. Listening and vocabulary: Housing Complaints
1. Go through the lesson, and take the quiz.
2. Make sentences with the expressions you just learnt, and check them with a partner.
3. What does the term walking refrigerator mean? What can you do when you are stuck with a strange term?
1. Source 1
2. Source 2



Food for thought: Does the right to
freedom of expression include the
right to undermine itself?

3. Other sources
2. Role play: Calling the Landlord to Report a Leak
1. As usual, practise aloud by yourself and then with a partner.
2. Record your conversation with your partner, and do it again using the "jumping/pinball" exercise.
3. Publish your audio chirbits to your e-portfolios.
3. In preparation for Remembrance Day, listen to and practise singing this song.
