Hey,
today we first warmed up with your reactions concerning the picture of the man with a gun in his hand and a baby... Here is what you said:
The situation shocks me. The attitude of the father would seem cruel / cowardly towards the baby since it can't defend itself. However as the man doesn't have his finger on the trigger, it's just a symbol of protection.
He is the father of the child. But what a protective father he is!
Personally, I think the man will have a bad influence on the child. The infant may become violent.
There is a contrast between the pistol and the innocence of the baby.
The man is maybe a soldier?
Other traumatic situations:
- fight between parents
- addictions: drugs, alcohol, cigarettes, ...
Then we continued with a "special task". You had to try and sell me a pen / pencil as if you were a teleshopping presenter... Here is some advice so as how to speak:
Attitude of the 2 characters:
- the speaker: enthusiastic, happy, joyful, speaks in a high-pitched tone, in a quizzical tone, asks a lot of questions, winks at the camera, takes up a smile, ...
- the expert: passionate, serious, carries out a demo, uses technical words, knows everything about his/her product, ...
Finally, we watched a spoof ad by Amnesty International against the arms trade which is out of control. We'll study it more tomorrow but you can watch it again below:
