| My class of English Language in March 2004 My students come from some of these countries in South America, Europe, Africa and Asia...oh, and Canada... Ecuador Switzerland Colombia Venezuela China India Pakistan Guatemala So, here is the test. Can you guess which photo goes with which country? Here's a little story that I tell my niece (when she complains about learning French.) Once there was a goat and a bird. The bird learned to speak goat but the goat didn't learn to speak bird. The bird also learned to speak other languages.... One day the two friends were sitting next to a stream, enjoying the fresh water, and suddenly a large tiger arrived on the other side of the water. Immediately the bird ran behind a rock and started shouting, "Bark, woof, Bow-wow-wow" and the tiger jumped up and ran away. "Now do you see the advantage of being trilingual?" asked the bird. The goat just nodded. |
