Semana 1
Unit I. What are you doing?
It seems that something is being celebrated and they did a dance for the attendees.
What are the woman and the man doing? (a) What are they wearing?
The woman and the man seem to be dancing, she is wearing a pink dress with black
decorations and her hair is tied back and he is wearing light brown dress pants, a black
jacket, a white shirt with a black bow and a top hat.
What is the man with hat next to the tree doing? (b)
The man seems to be talking to the woman who is leaning against the same tree, he seems
to be trying to tell her something without anyone noticing.
What are the girl and the woman doing? (c) What do you think they are talking about?
The woman and the girl are seen to be talking and laughing, you can see a slight smile on
their faces, it may be that they are talking about how well they are having at the dance, and
how fun it is for the girl to be there.
What are the two women and the man doing? (d) What do you think they are talking about?
It seems that they are mother and daughter and perhaps the mother interrupted the
conversation she had with the man, since her face reflects discomfort and seriousness,
because perhaps they were talking about something important before they interrupted
them.
It seems that the two of them are drinking alcohol and smoking, one of them looks very
interested in the conversation that the woman at the table next to him is holding, and he
pays a lot of attention to it, while the other is staring at the man with whom she is woman is
speaking.
