Imagine that you and your friend are doing a school project "Sports activities". You have found some photos to illustrate it but for technical reasons you cannot send them now. Leave a voice message to your friend explaining your choice of the photos and sharing some ideas about the project. In 2.5 minutes be ready to:
— explain the choice of the illustrations for the project by briefly describing them and noting the differences;
— mention the advantages (1–2) of the two sports activities;
— mention the disadvantages (1–2) of the two sports activities;
— express your opinion on the subject of the project — which of the sports activities presented in the pictures you'd prefer and why.
You will speak for not more than 3 minutes (12–15 sentences). You have to talk continuously.
Hey, Kate. You know what? I’ve just found two pictures suitable for our project "Sports activities". Let me tell you a bit more about them.
These pictures are relevant to our project because there are people doing sports. In the first photo there is a man playing football outside. In the second picture there is a girl swimming in the swimming pool. Obviously, both of these pictures are related to sport and healthy lifestyle. But there are differences to illustrate our project better. In the first picture a man is playing a sport game and probably he is not alone, while in the second picture a girl is doing an individual kind of sport.
In my opinion, the both sports activities have their advantages. For instance, playing football is fun as well as it is a team game. As for swimming, people don’t need to have a partner, they can do it alone. Of course, the two sports activities have disadvantages too. For example, football is a contact sport so players can get injured. At the same time, swimming is rather boring especially if it is long distances.
As for me, I’d prefer playing football, because it’s a team game. And it is much more famous. Millions of people all around the world love to spend their time watching football matches and I’m one of them. I’m a big football fan. Moreover, sometimes my friends and I play football in the school yard during the breaks.
So, shall we use these photos in our project? Call me when you’re ready to discuss if we can use them. Bye-bye.
