Task 4
When somebody asks: "HOW are you?", there are different ways you can respond. The most common response is to say: "I am fine thank you".
However, you may tell somebody a bit more about how you feel, mainly if the person asking is close to you or knows you.
Look at the different responses and practice with your partner:
- How are you?
- I am feeling sick./ I am a little worried today./ I am upset./ I have a slight headache.
Look at the following pictures and choose the best response when asked, "How are you?"
-
I am angry.
-
I am scared.
-
I am not well.
-
I am not good. I've received bad news.
-
I am excited.
-
I am blessed.
-
I am too hot.
-
I am tired.
-
I am happy.
But when somebody asks:
"WHO are you?", that's a different question:
- complete the following file to know yourself better.
- Stick in your notebook,
- take a photo, and
- upload it to your portfolio.
