smoke, and to keep yourself busy doing the activities you like to do.

LEZIONE 09:

-what advide would you give to a person who is always asleep and eats a lot?

➢ I would suggest them to try to have a regular sleep schedule, because the more you sleep, the more tired you

are; then i would suggest to do some physical activity, even going for a walk once in a while is good for their

health, and it even helps with the hunger: if you move, then you’ll be less hungry when you eat.

LEZIONE 11:

-do you travel much? What means of transport do you usually use to travel?

➢ I used to travel a lot before covid: i liked to take the train or the plane. Now i only use the car or sometimes

the train, but not as much as before.

-how long does it take you to go to work/university?

➢ My university is online, so i don’t need to go out to “reach” it; and i work from home, I help children with their

homework, but they come where i live.

LEZIONE 13:

-what kind of transportation do you enjoy most?

➢ Maybe the best kind of transportation, in my opinion, is walking: you don’t even pollute the environment at

all!

-which means of transport is the most comfortable? Why?

➢ I find cars to be the most comfortable, because if you’re not the one who’s driving you can relax without

paying attention to when you have to get off, which happens when you’re in a train.

LEZIONE 15:

-which is your favourite room in your house? Why?

➢ My favourite room in my house is my bedroom, because it’s the only place where i feel safe and i can do

whatever i want without being bothered by anyone.

-do you live in a flat or in a house? Describe your home

➢ i live in a semi-detached house: it’s not very big but it’s a two-storey house. It has two bathrooms, three

bedrooms: one is mine, another one is my sister’s, and the last one is for my parents; then there’s a kitchen, a

living room, a laundry room, and a garage.

LEZIONE 17:

-describe your dream home

➢ i don’t really know how my dream home is, but i know that i would love to live in the mountains, in a small

house.

-have you changed anything in your house recently? If so, what?

➢ I haven’t changed anything in my house recently.

LEZIONE 19:

-do you have any siblings? If not, would you like to have one or more? why/why not?

➢ I have a step sister, but she’s 10 years younger than me, and we don’t really get along together, because

there’s too much difference of age. I’d love to have an older brother though, I prefer people who are older

than me.

-do you get along with your family members?

➢ Sometimes i get along with my family members, but most of the time we don’t even talk much, because our

personalities are very different. I prefer being on my own.

LEZIONE 21:

-do you make friends when you are on holiday? why/why not?

➢ I used to make a lot of friends on holiday, when i was little; but now i don’t anymore, because i became shy

and i wouldn’t even know how to start a conversation with a stranger.

-is it difficult to make friends at any age? why/why not?

➢ I think it’s easier to make friends when you’re a child, because they’re all so brave and don’t care about what

other people think about them, so it’s not a problem (for most of them at least) to go talking to someone

they don’t know and become best friends in an hour. When you’re older, if you don’t have any interests in

common, you probably won’t get along together.

LEZIONE 23:

-do you have a lot of free time?

➢ I don’t have a lot of free time, because I have to study and work

-do you commute to get to work or university?

➢ I don’t commmute to get to work and university, because my university is online and i work from home.

LEZIONE 25:

-would you prefer to live in the city or in the country? Why?

➢ I would prefer to live in the city, because i love big cities: you can go out and be sure that you’ll find

something to do. In the country you’re far away from everything and everyone; no one lives there, and it’s

really difficult to make friends.

-why do some people move from the city to the countryside and/or viceversa?

➢ I guess that some people move away from the city because they don’t like it anymore, or because they found

a new job, or maybe even because they fell in love with someone who lived in the country and wanted to live

there with them.

LEZIONE 27:

-what is the biggest problem our planet has today?

➢ There are a lot of environmental issues, such as deforestation, loss of biodiversity, public health, land

management and urbanisation, waste disposal, overpopulation, water scarcity, pollution, ecosystems and

endangered species; but the most problematic one is for sure the climate change. The main cause are

greenhouse gasses, especially the one emitted by humans, because they have a huge impact on: habitats,

agriculture and oceans. Global temperatures are rising and ice-caps are melting; so the sea levels are rising

too. The best way to reduce climate change would be to build sustainably, using renewable energy sources,

such as solar and wind power, and limiting waste and pollution.

-do you think cars should be banned from the city centres? Why?

➢ I think that cars should be banned from the city centres, and that only buses or other means of transports

should be allowed, to pollute less, have more interaction and less sm0g.

LEZIONE 29:

-in your opinion, is it possible to avoid environmental disasters?

➢ I think that it’s really important to raise awareness and to learn by our past mistakes. In general, one of the

best ways to reduce climate change is to build sustainably, using more renewable energy sources, such as

wind and solar power, because they fight carbon emissions.

About natural disasters, we can't stop them from happening, but we can make them less damaging if

we understand better why they happen, and what we can do to prevent or mitigate them.

LEZIONE 31:

-what is the longest holiday you’ve had?

➢ The longest holiday I had was in 2017: I went to England for three weeks.

-what time of the year do you prefer to go on holiday?

➢ In my opinion, the best time of the year to go on holiday is in December, because I love the snow, and in that

month it snows a lot in the mountains, so I can ski too.

LEZIONE 33:

-what do you usually like doing when you are on holiday?

➢ When I’m on holiday, I usually love to rest and enjoy the place I’m visiting, but it depends on the type of

holiday. If it is in the mountains, I like to ski, if it’s in a big city, i like to visit it, etc.

-have you ever been on a cruise? Would you like to? Why?

➢ I have been on a cruise when i was eleven years old, so I don’t really remember it very much. I remember that

everything was very big and that one night they organized a chocolate party, where everything in a big room

was made of chocolate and you could eat it. Then there was a theatre with a lot of different actors that

performed every night, a casino, etc.

the cruise stayed every day in a different island in Greece: I visited Corfu, Mykonos, Santorini and

Katakolos.

LEZIONE 35:

-which season do you like best? Why?

➢ My favorite season is definitely winter, because I love cold temperatures and there’s the snow, so I can ski. I

despise summer, because I hate being hot and always sweating, plus I always feel bad because whenever it’s

too hot my head explodes.

-what activities do you prefer doing when the weather is hot?

➢ I hate summer so I always stay at home; I study or watch tv shows.

LEZIONE 37:

-How does the weather affect how you feel?

➢ I don’t really have self-confidence, so in summer I’m always in a bad mood, because I have to deal more with

how I look than in winter, because when it’s hot you can’t hide yourself with clothes. Winter is the best

season in my opinion, because I can do a lot of things.

-do you watch or read the weather forecast? Why?

➢ I only read the weather forecast when I have to go somewhere and I’m unsure about the weather, and I

wouldn’t want it to rain.

LEZIONE 39:

-which is your favourite meal of the day?

➢ My favourite meal of the day is dinner, because it’s when I am very hungry and I can eat a lot. I’m not really

hungry on breakfast and lunch.

-many say that young people eat unhealthily. What is your opinion? Why?

➢ I think that most of the young people are conditioned by the lifestyles of their parents, so if they eat

unhealthy food their children probably will too. But in general, we are attracted by junk food, such as Mc

Donald’s or Burger King, so it’s probably true.

LEZIONE 41:

-do you cook? If not, would you like to learn? Why?

➢ I only cook when I have to, because I don’t like to do it. I like to cook pasta, because it’s fast and easy.

-what is your favourite type of restaurant? Why?

➢ My favourite type of restaurant is where they serve sushi, most of all if they’re all you can eat; because you

can eat a lot without spending a lot 0f money. I like pizzerias too, because I really love pizza.

LEZIONE 43:

-many sports are team sports. Which do you prefer: individual or team sports? Why?

➢ My favourite type of sports is team sports, because you can always count on your team mates, and you can

celebrate with them when you win, or be consoled or console them when you lose. If you’re alone, you have

to deal with everything on your own.

-are there any sports you prefer to watch rather than play? Why?

➢ I can’t play any sports because I have a problem with my leg, so I prefer to watch every sport.

LEZIONE 45:

-some traditional sports involve animals, such as rodeos, where animals get hurt or severely injured. Should these sports

get banned? Why?

➢ I think that these cruel “sports” should absolutely be banned. It’s ridiculous and a shame for the person doing

it, to celebrate something like that, because you’re h
