Hello

This week we talked about World Food and food culture. We learnt  about a new concept - a food city.

What is yout favourite food city? - Madrid? Why?

Practise some listening on the topic:

Tokyo vs. New York Listening

Also here´s a BBC radio programme about Food, listen and check your comprehension:

As for grammar we were talking about affixations (suffixes and prefixes). Practise this with FCE tasks:
FCE Use of English Word Formation

We talked about reporting verbs, apart from "say, tell and ask" there´re a lot more that can be used in the Reported Speech.
The verb patterns are different:

promise + TO Inf = She promised to come back soon.
explain + THAT clause = She explained that she was really tired.
suggest + ING Gerund = We suggested going to the park.
advise + Object + TO Inf = He advised us to take a taxi.
