will nd sketch artists employed in a variety of areas in the workforce) to see if we could

Sketch artist: Okay, you said that this was a man in his 40’s. Can you tell me what shape
his  face  was: thin, round, oval, or  square  ? 

Anna: His face was long and thin, I think. 

Sketch artist: Were his   eyes   more round, bulging, or squinty? 
Anna: Well, I think they were round, but not too round, and he had bushy eyebrows. He also
had a   thick   nose, not a hooked one. 

Sketch artist: Take at look at this so far. Is this right? 

Anna: His nose in the sketch is a little too turned up. It was more straight. 
Sketch artist: What about his ears? Were they big or small? And his mouth? Did he have
thin or thick  lips  ? 

Anna: His ears were average size and they didn’t stick out too much, and they were  
pointed  . His lips were more thin than thick. 

Sketch artist: We’re almost done. What about his hair? Did he have long or short hair? 
Anna: Oh, didn’t I tell you? He’s  hooked  . He didn't have a hair in his head.

Sketch artist: Is there anything else you remember about that man? Maybe something
special about his color.... anything

Ana: Now that you mentioned it, I remember he had freckles   all over his face.

Also, he was a red  hair  .

Sketch artist: Okay, then. I’m done. What do you think? Is this the guy? 
Anna: Wow, you’ve done a great job. Yeah, that’s him. That’s the guy who stole my wallet. I
can recognize that  face  anywhere. 

Sketch artist: You know, he looks familiar. I have a feeling I’ve seen him before. 
Anna: I hope so. Maybe you can help nd him. 
Sketch artist: Yeah, now if only I could remember where I’ve seen him before...

lesson:
Traveling Abroad
By Casey Slide

Some years ago I had the opportunity to travel around Europe with some students for three
weeks. I visited Germany, the Czech Republic, Italy, and France. During my trip, I stayed in a
number of dorm-like facilities, known as   hotels  .

Hostels are one of the most popular types of lodgings in Europe. But before you stay in a
hostel for the rst time, learn more about some pros and cons of hostels, and tips for
staying in them.
What Is a Hostel?
A hostel is a low-budget accommodation shared among travelers. When a guest books a
stay in a   hostel  , he or she typically books a bed for the night, not a room. The

guest's bed may be in a room with four other   travelers  , or in a room with up to

twenty travelers.

Bathrooms are dorm-style; large, with several shower stalls and a row of sinks. Hostels
usually have only one or two bathrooms on each oor. Hostels tend to lend to more
interaction, cost much less than a hotel  , but do not provide the privacy or

personal service found at a hotel.

Advantages to Staying at a Hostel
1. Inexpensive
Hostels are cheap travel accommodations, especially when compared to staying in a hotel.
Although prices vary from country to country, and hostel to hostel, I've compiled some
average price ranges for hostels in frequently traveled European countries. Most of these
rates apply to the majority of hostels throughout the world, though cheaper hostels exist in
places like South America, and more expensive ones in cities like Washington, D.C. These
rates are approximate, and the rates are per person, per night: England & Wales $10-$40,
France $15-$30, Germany $25, Greece $15, Ireland $15-$35, Italy $10-$30, Spain $15-$25.
2. Travel in Groups
Staying in hostels allows everyone to   share   large rooms. In fact, some hostels

allow up to twenty people to stay in one room. This can be a lot of fun, especially when you
plan a group vacation, and eliminates the arguments over who shares rooms.
 3. Located in Most Major Cities Around the World
Hostels are not as prevalent in the U.S., but they are everywhere in Europe. You can nd
hostels in most major European cities, and in most major cities across the globe, on every
continent other than Antarctica.
4. Most Have Fully Equipped Kitchens
If you want to save money during your travels by cooking your own  food  ,

many hostels have fully equipped kitchens you can use.
