Here you have a video from the auditions for a talent show called "The X Factor" (we actually had a version of it in Spain). In this video, three teenagers sing "Bad Romance", a hit by Lady Gaga... Watch the video and choose the correct option:
1. The name of the band is...
a) Junk
b) Jam
c) Jahm
2. The girl called April works...
a) as a journalist
b) as a waitress in her dad's restaurant.
c) as a waitress in a local pub.
3. After they sing the song, one man in the jury tells them that...
a) They are one of the best groups they've had on the show.
b) Probably the worst group they've had on the show.
c) Probably the group that sings Lady Gaga's songs better than Lady Gaga herself.
4. The other man says that they are like...
a) Three cats being strangled.
b) Three poor children looking for their parents.
c) Three wolfs howling at the moon.
Now answer these questions: Were they admitted into the X Factor show? Do you think they will have a successful career as singers?
Please, post your answers as comments, and don't forget to include your name if you don't sign in.

They weren´t admitted, and I think that they will not have success in the future. They sing really bad! I will not buy them a disc, it is sure.

Thank you for your comment, Marta. Your answers were all correct. I can see you have worked very well in order to understand the video... and that was real English!!!
ReplyDeleteI quite agree with you when you say that they probably won't succeed in the music industry... They should have been more realistic about their options... They even admitted to having rehearsed "ON THE PHONE"... you can't possibly perform well if you don't work hard and prepare for the audition. In any case, they were not very talented either...
I hope you'll visit the blog soon. Feel free to comment on any other section (it doesn't matter if it is labelled for another group of students)
See you at La Ribera
ok, I will try spend by some other section (when I have some free time).
ReplyDeleteUntil next Tuesday.

ReplyDeleteYou forgot to log in or write your name, so I don't know who I'm writing to.
It's never too late, so please post your comments on any of the sections of the blog.
However, I can't include your comments in my assessment of the firt term, becase that's already closed. In any case, it would help for the second term.
Welcome to the pocket full of words.
