FINAL TASK

Here is one final task that you may do in order to cover the four skills you should focus on when learning a language: LISTENING, READING, SPEAKING AND WRITING.
Write a composition on the following topic and leave it in the blog as a comment to Session 22:

  • What Almeria means for me is...

1 comment:

  1. 'What Almería means for me is...' is a difficult way to start this writing because I have spent all my life living here and this is a town I know very well. When that happens you have usually contradictory feelings, positive and negative.

    Starting with positive ones, all of them are very known: it is easy to move around Almería because of its medium-size which let you go nearly everywhere in just five minute and have most of the services you have in a big city but without so many traffic-jams, our way of entertainment going out to bars and socializing with friends and, of course, the light and the sea.

    On the other side, apart from bars you do not have many other options to have fun, there are not many cultural spectacles (most of them are in Roquetas). Moreover, Almería is far from the rest of Spanish cities and the rest of European countries and you need much time and money travelling to go wherever you want to go. But the things that I hate most are two: awful and tall buildings built during the seventies and the each time more widespread kind of vulgar people you can find living here.

    I want to finish my writing with a typical Almeriense phrase: What is what is? (¿Qué e’ lo que e’?)
