Students work in pairs before checking with the whole class to find detailed information from the text.

Ask them at first to work alone to: -Put the five places in order starting with the one you most like to visit. -Are there any other places in the world that you have always wanted to go? -Have you been anywhere that you think everyone should see before they die? Then Ss discuss their ideas in pairs, finally do brief feedback with the whole class to hear their ideas.
