Unit 1A: CULTURAL DIFFERENCES


Unit description

 This unit deals with issues related to cultural differences. Learners will watch a video clip of a travelogue about the Australian outback and Aboriginal traditions. They will listen to and take part in a dialogue in which two men are complaining about being bored on a cruise, and will read a story about the mistakes a man who grew up in a big city makes when he relocates to a small southern town. The grammar section deals with a review of clauses of result.
