For homework, please prepare the following:
- complete the exercises (i.e. A-J) for Unit 17 and read the grammar details for Unit 17 (pp. 138-139). Please consult the key at the back of the book to check your work AFTER you have given the exercises a go on your own. Bring any questions you have regarding rules/these solutions with you to next Monday's session.
- read pp. 186-187 of Unit 23 and do exercises A-D on pg. 188-189 (then self-check your answers). Bring any questions you have with you our next session.
- read a review of a film, album or book (you can find reviews on Culture | The Guardian and
on the NY Times (the TH has a subscription, but you need to be logged
into the VPN in order to access it)) and assess the review using the
following categories: 1) word choice, 2) details/examples, 3) sentence
structure, 4) paragraph structure/essay organization, 5) thesis
statement (is there a main "take-away" from the review?). Bring this
review with you to class (either printed out or in an electronic form).
- watch at least one of the videos from Amoeba Records "What's in my bag?" series Amoeba - YouTube and
observe/take notes on how they present their picks. Then, select 3-5
books/films/albums that you will present to your group in a similar
fashion (i.e. hopefully being so convincing that your group will want to
check that media out) in class next Monday. Try to bring the
physical copies of the books/films/albums if you can.
