Hey,
today we first commented on a very violent British anti-tobacco campaign.
You can watch it here again:
Here is what we said about it:
The document is a video / an advertisement.
It represents the dangers / risks of smoking.
There is a man who is walking in the street.
He is bleeding / There is a lot of blood.
It's a shocking document; the scene is gruesome / very violent.
According to me, cigarettes are not that dangerous.
It's exaggerated. It's not efficient.
However, according to Nadia, cigarettes are highly / very dangerous, they destroy the
body like we see in the ad. It's like the ad with crashed cars.
To conclude, I don't believe it will make me change my behaviour /
attitude. We can say that shocking people may work sometimes but I think that sensitizing them and helping them is better.
Then we started our new sequence with the short description and oral presentation of this picture:

Here is what we said about it:
It's an advertisement which depicts / shows a young boy, a teenager.
He looks rebellious.
He is looking / staring directly at the camera.
He looks / seems defiant.
He is wearing "rock clothes", a leather jacket and he has long hair.
Rock is a symbol for rebellion.
However appearances are deceptive.
He may not be violent or rebellious, he may not be an anarchist [k] but he has the looks.
HW : don't forget that next week, you will have to comment on the new French anti-smoking advertisement campaign. You will also have a written
expression test. If you want to get ready, have a look at p. 119 in your textbooks.
