Because it plays such a vital part in our lives and is so important to keep up with, it is without a doubt a piece of your everyday routine that can’t go ignored.

Listening Exercise: Planning a Party

Avere una conoscenza ampia del lessico e delle parole specifiche per ogni occasione è essenziale nel momento in cui ci si accinge a studiare una nuova lingua. E soprattutto, il problema più importante è ricordarle, queste parole. Quando siamo dei bambini il nostro cervello è così elastico che entra qualsiasi cosa ci buttiamo dentro, e lo fa per rimanerci! Molto diversa è invece la situazione man mano che cresciamo: imparare una lingua e soprattutto ricordarsene i termini può provocare a volte uno sforzo importante quando non lo si fa da giovani.

Noi di Scrambled Eggs stiamo però creando degli esercizi mirati ad alleggerire il peso di tutti quei nuovi vocaboli che vi vengono proposti in una nuova lezione. Li stiamo quindi catalogando per argomenti, così saranno più semplici da ricordare!

Scopriamo quindi insieme – con questo esercizio di listening creato apposta per voi studenti – tutto il lessico che potrà tornarvi utile un domani che starete organizzando una festa per un vostro amico a Londra o a New York. Non male come idea eh?

Cosa aspettate allora? Mettetevi subito alla prova con la traccia audio qua sotto e cimentatevi con gli esercizi! Ce la farete, ne sono certo!
