Genetics - Gattaca trailer + text

http://goremasternews.files.wordpress.com/2009/11/gattaca.jpgHey,

 

today we first talked a little bit about your philosophy assignment and then we continued speaking about genetics.

Here is what we said about Gattaca's trailer and plot:

 

In Gattaca's trailer we saw two characters, two scientists who want to change their identities. Maybe they are going to spy in on a company.


Vocabulary:

a science-related job
a toddler
an embryo

 

Here is the list of words with /i/ and their pronunciation [i] or [ai]:

 

Pronunciation [i] 

Determine
Single
Interview
It / in
Ability
Physical
Characteristics
Achieve

Pronunciation [ai] 

Child
Minute
Divided
Identity
Saliva
Society
Mine
Hide
Time

 

Finally, we started to speak about the text.

 

HW: for tomorrow, you need to prepare a full report about what you understand from the document as far as the wh- questions are concerned. Prepare to report orally to the class.
