Procedure (20-30 minutes)
I ask Ss have you ever tried English food? what do you think of it? then I ask have you ever tried a trifle (English dessert, made with fruit, cake and cream) then I explain it. Then I give an example that my father is open to every new food. Then I elicit the meaning of it.
1- I introduce Kevin and his job, then I give them the instruction that they have to listen to the audio and try to number the photos in the order. Then we check them together. 2- We read the questions and I want them to listen again and answer them, then, they should check them with their partners. And check the answers together. Furthermore, I play the audio and after some vocabulary or expressions I pause to elicit the meanings. (have a very sweet tooth, cater, from every point of view, the unsocial hours, atmosphere, understanding).
i put them in pairs and pose some questions: 1- What kind of restaurants are there in your town? what nationalities do they represent? 2- What are they like? 3- What kind of people usually go there? and why? I want them to discuss the questions, then I get feedback from them.
