Test yourself with this a true or false a quiz!
1. The UK consists of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
2. Cambridge is the second largest city in England, after London.

so guys put your opinion whether it's true or false
In my opinion the answer of number 1 is true because The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (UK), since 1922, comprises four constituent countries: England, Scotland, and Wales (which collectively make up Great Britain), as well as Northern Ireland (variously described as a country, province or region).
HapusThe answer for no.3 is false. The University of Cambridge was founded in 1209 AD, not BC.

Activity 5 ( Class Discussion)
BalasHapusConsider the film As opening quote from the British Council again:
Complete immersion...is often the best way to develop your language skills.
Now discuss these questions:
1. What is complete immersion?
2. Why is it seen as such a good way to learn a language?
3. Is it possible to get some of the benefits of complete immersion without going to an English-
speaking country? If so, how?
Answer:
1. I think this video is enough to provide a detailed insight into the importance of building interpersonal relationships for language learning.
2.because here they are also trained to be fluent but return to their respective personalities about sooner or later benefiting from studying there.
3. Yes, they are here not only to study but also to make friends from other countries so that they indirectly increase their knowledge of the language without having to go to that place. However, this opportunity cannot be obtained by everyone due to financial limitations.
