Social activities (listenings)
Hi everybody!
Since some of you asked me for extra-listening, I've decided to include a web containing lots of videos about social activities, such as
How to survive a Family Christmas,
How To Say Merry Christmas In Ten Languages or
How To Thank Someone For A Present.
they are quite interesting and useful to improve listening skill since you can read the tapescript or download the audio for you i-pod, SPS or mobile. There is no excuse to improve this skill.
Moreover you can find different topics (sports, health, food, Christmas, etc) Just have a look at it, you'll enjoy it!

Merry Christmas!!
Christmas is the most popular holiday of the year in the whole world. About 400 millions people celebrate Christmas holiday each year in winter. Many of Christmas traditions and ceremonial aspects were celebrated long time before Christ was born. The history of Christmas is, therefore, way back in centuries. If you'd like to know all about Christmas, just click on the word "Christmas", here you can find something about its history, traditions, and much more..
Merry Christmas! and remember:
don't be naughty, be nice because...

THE SISTERS by James Joyce
Bearing in mind Colin MacCabe's (Professor of the University of Exter School of English) words:
"to truly know a language, you must know something of the literature of a language", I've included one of Joyce's short stories from "Dubliners", The Sisters.
It was originally published in The Irish Homestead Journal on August 13, 1904. The Sisters was Joyce's first published work of fiction.
I'm sure you'll enjoy it, improving your reading and listening skills since you can read and listen to the story at the same time. Moreover, as we'll discuss the story in the classroom you will be able to develop a creative thinking, reading between the lines.
Enjoy your reading!
