oral presentation partners! :D

ELISENDA LLADÓ AND LAIA SALÓ

The trip to London

They made an original oral presentation; they made up a T.V program where they were the journalists. They talked about different London’s culture places, all of them were so interesting, but I couldn’t hear so many things because it was a poor quality video. They talked, for example, about the tower of London, the Big-Ben, the London Eye… About the London eye, for instance, they said that it’s a modern London’s landmark which has 22 capsules where passengers take a ride. And of course, they talked about the famous Beefeaters, who were paid with beef. The name comes from this tradition.

They made a good oral, the vido was really original and nice, but I couldn’t listen the most important thing, the speaking, because the video was not quite good but above all because the traffic of London.


ORIOL OLIVA

The trip to London

He talked about his trip to London this Christmas. He went along with his friends: iñaki, Eudald, Bernardo and Baldiri. They met there Marc Barneda, another boy his age.
They bought the plane tickets, the football tickets and the hotel by internet, so, maybe, because of that, they had a lot of problems. During the oral he explained some of these troubles, so it was quite funny.

He did a good oral, he always makes simply and good things. He didn’t do a lot of mistakes and the topic was so entertaining.


ADRIÀ ALFARO

Fantastic Spanish Literature

He talked about his research project.
First, like an oral presentation of the research, he explained us the objectives of his work, and when we knew, more or less, what his work was about, he started to explain the most important concepts:
Fantasy: this term comes from the Greek and was originated in the Greco-roman theology.
Terror is the most common kind of fantasy in S.VIII, but there a lot of kinds of fantastic novel:
Medieval fantasy, historical fantasy, technological fantasy, terror fantasy and realist fantasy.
The main conclusion of the work, is:
The characteristics of fantastic Spanish literature are always similar; the epoch doesn’t influence so much.

Question
- How many novels have you read?
- Eleven!

He made a good oral presentation, the only mistake, from my point of view, was that it was a little bit short. His pronunciation was so good.


BERNARDO SANTOS

Immigration in the city of London

Miami, Toronto and London, they are the places with most immigration.
He explained us that London is multiracial because different reasons: the govern helps, historic colonialism, and common wealth. The results of immigration are different: the immigration keeps U.K economy afloat. The immigration has made London one of the most important city on earth.
He gave us his opinion saying that we have a lot of immigration but so many years ago nobody migrates to Spain, so now it’s really difficult for us to accept it.

Question
- All the things that you’ve said about immigration are good things, but, don’t you think that there is something but?
- No, from my point of view, the immigration helps us to accept everybody, makes Spain a rich country…

His oral presentation was quite good, his pronunciation is perfec and his fluidence too. The topic was so interesting, maybe he had to made a longer oral to explain more things!


CHAINEZ SELLOUM AND FIONA

London universities

The United Kingdom is an imperial country where the education takes an important place. England is constituted by a big number of universities and colleges with high reputation, so they talked about these universities.
They talked about Cambridge, Oxford, Imperial college London…
Cambridge, is the oldest university in England and it has 31 colleges.
Oxford is also really old in England, they teach since 1096.
All these universities ask for a high mark, so it’s really important to have good marks now if we want to enter to one of them.

Their presentation was so good. As always, they have a perfect pronunciation, and their English level is so high. They talked about a really interesting topic, and in a good way, because they informed us about all the universities in UK, and, from my point of view, it’s really interesting now because all of us are looking for different universities…
I also want to say that, the topics that we had to choose were London or the research project, so everybody talked about these two things, but they talked about London in a different way, really original and useful.

ARIADNA COMAS

She talked about the British Museum.
She explained to us that she wanted to make a video in London, but she had a lot of problems so she did it in class.
The British Museum is about history and culture. Their collection is more than seven million objects.
This museum it’s really big, so it has a lot of departments:
The Department of Ancient Egypt and Sudan, the department Greek and Roman antiquities…
They explained us something about each department. About the department of Conversation and Documentation and Science, for example, she said that the science part, has a big analysis and identify of different materials.

Question:
- Why do you choose this topic, is it because you love art, culture..?
- Yes! I love it!
- And this is the museum that you enjoyed most?
- Well, one of them, the national gallery it’s also wonderful.

Her oral was so complete and really good. She had searched a lot of information to made it. The topic was also quite interesting, and she love it, so she did it so good.

IÑAKI FERNANDEZ AND BALDIRI GIRONELLA

Trip to London

They talked us, like Oriol, about their trip to London. The oral was very funny because they explained us different experiences there, and they also explained all their troubles... they particulary comment that they had to pay a lot of extra money because of this problems.

During this trip they visited cultural places, it's difficult to believe it, but it's true, they went to the British Museum... :)

Their oral presentation was good, the topic was the same than everybody, and that was the last oral that I've seen, so it was a little bit boring.. but it wasn't their fault! Apart from that, their pronunciation and fluidence is so good! I think that they have done a good work!

ADRIÀ CARMONA AND JORDI LLEIXÀ

London

They made an oral presentation in London talking about the most important parts of this big city.
They commented about the British Museum, and they recommended the jewelers of Persia.
They also wanted to show us the change of the guard, but they couldn’t because this day in front of the Buckingham Palace didn’t take place the change of the guard.

Their oral was so good, but I completely prefer Orals presentation than videos because I couldn’t understand some things… Apart from that, it was a good video; they explained a lot of things, so they did a really good summary of the trip. I also want to say that the video was quite nice, because the format, the context… Generally, because all the structure.


ANNA GENÍS AND MIRIAM FALGÀS

Questions to Londoners

They made an original oral presentation in London. They asked some questions to different people and they recorded it.
The answers of the Londoners were so interesting, and it was really nice to hear their English.
Some of the answers they gave us are:
London it’s different than everywhere because there are a lot of different cultures, religions… and everybody accept it.
Two of them said their favorite place of London is Coven garden. It’s impressive because I know that Coven Garden it’s so good, but from my point of view it’s not the best part of London, so maybe it has some secrets that I haven’t discovered yet.
It was also nice to see that foreign people, Londoners in this situation, related Spanish with Barcelona. I’m pried of this.
They also asked about religion, one of them answered that he was catholic because he was Irish and in Ireland everybody is catholic.

It was a good video, and really nice to see English people and their pronunciation. I also think that it was so original.


MARINA SARQUELLA

Research project: The presence of English on TV advertising.

She wanted to do the oral about London, but she forgot the power point and she had to improve, the result was so good, and the oral was fluid and nice!
She created a blog to upload advertisement videos which were really creative and funny!
The conclusion of her work is that in one future, the English advertisements will be more important than now because most of them are related with technology, so, most of them are related with our future.
Apart from that, she concluded that the luxuries things are advertising by English productions, so we see the powerful of English.

ALEJANDRO PEÑA

Research project: Pacfrean is focus on bread.

He talked about his research project. He showed the company's introduction and the process diagram. He made a technologic work, so he included techologic diagrams... which, he supposed, that we have to know because we did in 4rth of Eso, but... I don't remeber!! I was really bad with this subject.

I think that he did a good oral, always he is quite nevous, but, from my point of view, this time he was less nervous and the oral was better than other times!

MARINA JULIÀ AND NEUS PAGÈS.

London

They didn't come to London, but they did the presentation about the city too. I couldn't see the oral because I was at the city... :P, but I saw their video.

They talked about Harrods, and his high prices, about Big Red Bus, Buckingham Palace... and all the tipical places there! They, like Elisenda and Laia, made the oral like a journalists, this time they were journalist from TVE3.

The oral was original and quite nice!

all the orals were so nice and quite funny, but I think that it's not a good idea to choose between only two topics, because everybody talked about, more or less, the same, and sometimes it was a litel bit boring... on the other hand, I have to say that it could be more monotonous because some people talked about London in a different way, talking about different aspects of London... like Ariadna Comas, Chainez and Fiona, etc.
