2. INTRODUCCIÓN
Dado el posicionamiento cultural, científico y económico que diversas comunidades angloparlantes han
tenido en los últimos cinco siglos y, especialmente, durante el pasado y lo que ha corrido del presente, la
lengua inglesa se ha convertido en un vehículo de comunicación global, transnacional y transcultural.
Desde esta perspectiva, constituye una necesidad para cualquier persona que se desempeñe como
estudiante o trabajador de cualquier área del conocimiento o del sector productivo, ser competente en la
comunicación que se da a través de esta lengua.
En el caso particular del SENA, se cuenta con políticas enfocadas a la masificación del inglés como parte de
la competencia comunicativa, no sólo de aprendices e instructores, sino también de todos los
colombianos. De esta manera, a partir de un programa de formación complementaría enfocado al nivel
A1- según el MCE, se espera dar inicio a un proceso que apoyará la inserción laboral y académica tanto
local como global de un amplio rango de población dentro y fuera de la institución.

Dear diary, I have just come back from my trip to Santa Marta and have so many things to
write. Maybe, I should start from the beginning. Three friends from college, Susan, Elizabeth
and Nick, travelled with me. At first we planned to travel by plane but when we wanted to
make our reservations, there was nothing available for us! So, we had to travel by bus. I
know, it is much longer than in plane but at the end I simply loved the beautiful variety of
landscapes you can see all the way and the buses that were very comfortable, with air
conditioner, great movies and nice food. Besides, they were so fast that it took us less time
than expected. Awesome!

After our fourteen-hour trip, we finally arrived in Rodadero and stayed in a luxurious hotel.
The truth is that we didn’t plan to stay in that hotel either, but the other hotels in the area
were all full so we didn’t have any other option. Anyway, I had great expectations about
being in a five-star hotel for the first time in my life! Unfortunately, the hotel was so
crowded that every time we called room service, they wouldn’t answer! It was so
disappointing.
The only thing I liked from the place was the wonderful view of the beach from our room. It
was so relaxing and almost spiritual. In summary, I didn’t enjoy the hotel that much but I did
enjoy the beach a lot. By the way, you had to see the bellboy trying to lift Susan’s,
Elizabeth’s and my own luggage to the room. I think he broke his back. Each of us carried
more than 25 kilos, I guess they were heavy because of all the clothes we bought for this trip
last week, poor guy!
a. In a hostel
b. Her home there
c. At a hotel
d. Relative or friend’s house

After, we planned our “party itinerary”. We visited as many discos, pubs and cafés we could

drinks for my family and friends and in every of those places I bought some nice drinks for
