I already uploaded the listenings to the Aula Virtual. The names of the files are: Ordering a meal, Mistakes and Social English. The last one is new, we didn't listen to it in class. It goes with an exercise at the end of the page 36.

Remember this week we have been talking about food and meals.

Some cooking methods are:

boil
fry 
bake

When we eat dinner we usually have a starter, a main course and a dessert.
In Britain and in the USA the main course is usually a combination of  meat or fish, potatoes and vegetables.
In most restaurants they'll give you a choice of potatoes:Fries or baked potato? (Very often they will also offer you mashed potatoes.)
If you are eating meat they will ask you: How do you want your steak? Rare, medium or well done?


Yesterday we started a new unit. The grammar focus in this unit is the Present Perfect tense of the verb. We had already studied it at the beginning of the year, but it's not easy to use so it's not a bad idea to go over it.
We use the Present Perfect (this is the main idea) when an action started in the past and it's still going on.
We use it to talk about experience as at the beginning of the unit: Have you ever been to a Zara store?

We can say things like: Have you ever tried Mexican food? Have you ever played an instrument? And so on.
