show students the pictures on page 34 and ask where the people are (in a cafe). Point out that the bubbles are answers to questions. Ask learners what they think each conversation is about. Ask ss to guess what the questions are; if they guess the first question correctly move on to the second picture and if not, tell them that they will listen to the conversations of each of the picture and they should write down the questions to the answers play audio 1.73 pausing after each conversation ask learners what the questions write them on board 1. do you watch football? 2. do you speak Spanish? 3. do you live near here? 4. do you have children?
