1. Tell the students that they will read a text about old Jasper and have to answer the question in the slide: "What was the most interesting thing you learned about old Jasper?" 2. Share the text document with the students and give them 3 minutes to read it. Old Jasper I think I have had a very interesting life. I'm 73 now and I don't work anymore. I was in the army for 51 years. I retired when I was 69. I have been to so many countries that I can't remember all of them. I've been to Australia six or seven times and to South Africa three times. I only like warm places. My son, on the other hand, loves the cold. He has been to Antarctica twice. Crazy! They say that love is the greatest thing and I agree. I've been married four times but never for more than five years. I don't think women really understand me! I've talked on a radio show once. It was a programme about life in the military about twenty years ago. I met the Prime Minister on the same day. Actually, I've met a lot of famous people: members of the royal family, politicians and famous celebrities. I've never met the American President though, which is a pity. Because I've travelled a lot, I've seen lots of wonderful things and have also eaten and drunk some strange foods and drinks. I ate guinea pig in Peru and drank something called Mirto on a little island in Italy many years ago. 3. The students share their answers in OCF.
