Listening practice. Speakers
.
Listening task. Avatar. Speakers (Traveller´s . Student´s book, page 174. Round-up 6)
You´ll hear part of a discussion in which two friends, Fred and Aashna, are discussing a film they have both seen recently. For questions 1-6, decide whether the opinions are expressed by only one of the speakers, or whether the speakers agree. Write F for Fred, A for Aashna, or B for both, where they agree.
1. The visual effects cannot be compared to anything I´ve ever seen.
2. I felt emotionally detached ( =impartial, neutral).
3. I anticipated the outcome.
4. The film´s potential was not fully exploited.
5. An unpretentious(artless, modest) plot helps you perceive what´s important.
6. Some scenes stand out in my mind.

Monologue
Talk about healthy aging.
What can we do to slow down or even prevent problems that often come with getting older?
What determines how healthy you´ll be as you get older?
What kind of changes should you expect as you age?
