English Day by Day is designed for school students to improve their performance in the English language.
Hey guys,
this is the first post of the year for your class. So let me wish a very happy back-to-school. I wish we will get on well and that you will achieve interesting things in English this year.
First I got to present myself a little and then we started to study a cartoon entitled: "The Couch Potatoes". Here is what we said about the drawing:
The document is a cartoon in black and white. It shows two characters, a wife and her husband. They are watching tv and they are eating junk food at the same time. They both look like couch
potatoes. They are extremely fat / obese / overweight. They may be having an argument / having a fight / fighting / arguing over the tv programme or the food.
The woman may be saying:
"I can't stand / bear your eating junk food anymore."
or "this programme sucks, change the channel for God's sake!"
HW: for next time, you need to learn your lesson and be able to speak about the document for 2-3 minutes.
Files: you can download the visual here.
