Showing understanding
When you're listening to someone explain something or tell you something, how can you show that person that you understand him or her? How can you indicate that you are following what is being said - or not following it? In this programme, we look at different ways you can do this using body language, noises, words and intonation. When you've listened to the programme, don't forget to practise what you've learned with the activity below!
WHAT HAVE YOU LEARNT? Vocabulary and intonation activity Look at the conversation below and try to work out what words go in the spaces. After you've checked your choices, read the dialogue out loud. See if you can guess what intonation William uses to show Andrea whether or not he understands. There isn't a right or wrong answer - but you can listen to a recording of the conversation by clicking the links below. You can also listen to the conversation or download a printable version of this activity. |
