Lunchtime conversation yesterday included one topic which prompted me to ask the students present whether they hadn't done something that is a common thing for many people to do.
I asked my wife and her reply was that she had never been to Disneyland, or any other theme park. Me, neither! I also remembered that I had not watched Star Wars until about two years ago.. How about you? It might be embarrassing or funny, I guess. #大人英語 #ゲーム #efl #cardgame #Quizme

Etsuko told us of a fact she heard on a TV program this morning.
Apparently, Beethoven lived in 80 different houses during his life. That sounds a lot but is even more incredible when you consider that he only lived 56 years! He must have moved house every 6-9 months during his whole life, or every 6 months if he only started moving during adulthood. Taking a card from the popular Quiz Me! Conversation level 1, pack 2, I would like to ask how many times you have moved house, and which place you liked the most. #大人 #英会話 #早良区 #イギリス #福岡 Visiting the local airport let weekend, I recalled the time I was stopped at security, not for a bottle of water or a set of car keys, neither of which can be taken through to the Departures Lounge,, but for a bike spanner! Yes, that useful dumbbell tool, which has 8 sizes to fit any nut, was considered a dangerous weapon, instead of a useful travel companion.... Have you ever been stopped, and if so, why? #大人 #英会話 #早良区 #イギリス #福岡 |
