in the following video clip? Why can’t they understand
each other?

Слайд 25
Let’s see if you have any communication skills
to present the following situations:
You are going to make
an appointment with a doctor (SB: p.62 ex. 1 )
You are applying for a job (SB: p.94 ex1-2)
You are going to sign up for some courses (English, photography, gardening, cookery or etc.) (SB: p. 98 ex. 3)
Слайд 26
Now we came to the question why we
must learn another language
Слайд 27
What can another language help you to do
one day?
To survive = to save your life (in
a figurative sense, or maybe sometimes in the literal sense of the word)
Слайд 28
When you do something, you do it for
a reason. That's your motivation. Look at different reasons
why people learn English. Rewrite the sentences according to the model.
Слайд 29
Model: I learn English because I want to
be able to find a good job. — I
learn English to be able to find a good job.
Слайд 30
The conclusion:
Communication is the exchange of information from
one person to another . Effective communication takes place
only if the listener understands the information or idea that the speaker wants to express.
Communication can be of two types: verbal and non-verbal, and verbal is the best way to communicate
English is the language of international communication, that’s why we learn it.
Слайд 31
There are situations when people can’t or maybe
don’t want to use words to speak about their
thoughts and feelings. What other
languages can they use to express their feelings and emotions?
