Основное содержание урока

M: Hi, Arpi! How is your trip to Venice?

A: Hi, Martin, in one word, it was terrible.

M: Why, what happened?

A: Well, at first, everything was wonderful. The problems started when we landed in Venice. Our luggage got lost and we had to wait for its arrival. The payment for the hotel reservation wasn’t received by the hotel, so we had to pay for the accommodation once more. Finally, the weather was terrible. It was raining and the wind was constantly blowing.

M: Oh, my God! That’s really sad.

We all like holidays, but sometimes not everything goes well. Here’s a list of what may be wrong. You can:

get sunstroke,
miss the flight,
get seasick,
car breaks down,
lose passport,
have a flat tyre,
luggage/wallet gets stolen,

Say what problems did you have during holidays.

Let’s think what feelings we have when there are any problems on holidays. We can be:

confused – do not understand what’s happening
frustrated – stressed or annoyed
irritated – angry

And if everything turns out well, we are:

relieved – no longer feeling stressed
delighted – very happy
surprised – a feeling of wonder
