Exercice 1 — ¿Qué dices en cada situación?
Elige la frase más natural para improvisar en cada situación conversacional.
- Alguien te hace una pregunta difícil y necesitas tiempo para pensar. ¿Qué dices?
- No recuerdas la palabra exacta para 'linterna' y quieres explicarte de otra forma. ¿Qué dices?
- Quieres reformular lo que acabas de decir porque crees que no fue claro. ¿Qué dices?
- Quieres continuar hablando y evitar un silencio incómodo. ¿Qué dices?
Correction
- That's a good question, let me think about that for a moment.
- It's a kind of small device that produces light, you know, when it's dark.
- What I mean is that the situation is more complicated than it looks.
- Anyway, where was I? Oh yes, so the thing is, it happened last Friday.
Exercice 2 — Completa la conversación
Escribe una respuesta natural y completa para cada intervención del diálogo, usando frases de relleno o estrategias de reformulación vistas en el curso.
- A: So, what do you think about working from home? B: ___
- A: Can you explain what you mean by 'sustainable lifestyle'? B: ___
- A: You seem hesitant. Do you agree with the plan? B: ___
- A: What was the best part of your trip? B: ___
Correction
- Well, to be honest, I think it has its advantages, but at the same time it can feel quite isolating sometimes.
- Sure, what I mean is basically trying to reduce waste and make choices that don't harm the environment in the long run.
- I mean, it's not that I disagree, it's just that I think we need to consider a few more things before we decide.
- Let me think… I'd say the best part was probably the moment we arrived at the coast and just saw the ocean for the first time.
Exercice 3 — Di lo mismo de otra manera
Reformula cada frase en inglés usando una estrategia de improvisación diferente (frase de relleno, paráfrasis o estructura alternativa), manteniendo el mismo sentido.
- I don't know the answer.
- The movie was boring.
- I forgot the word in English.
- I need more time to think.
Correction
- That's a tricky one, actually — I'm not entirely sure I have the answer right now, to be honest.
- How can I put it… it just didn't really keep my attention, if you know what I mean.
- It's kind of on the tip of my tongue — it's that thing you use to, you know, open a bottle.
- Give me a second — I want to make sure I explain this properly before I say anything.
