name, last name and subject)
My name is Alexis Cruz Duran.
My name is Laura Camila Rubiano
Romero, this is our English project and we
will give important information about the
place we have chosen.

Say what you are going to talk about Laura: In this video, we are going to talk
in the video. (“In this video, I’m about Alaska, its typical dishes, current
going to talk about...”) news and finally we will give some
recommendations for the trip.

CONTENT
1. Introduce your topics, use some
simple sentences. (I recommend
visiting… I recommend eating…
This city is cheaper than… more
populated than…)
Laura: Alaska is located in the United
States, its capital is Juneau, its city with
the largest population is Anchorage. It
stands out for its natural phenomena such
as glaciers, volcanoes, northern lights,
lakes hundreds of meters deep, nights
that last for months, among others. Alaska
is larger than Connecticut, it is a highly
seismic zone because it is located in the
Pacific Ring of Fire, most of its
earthquakes occur in very deep points of
the land or the ocean.

2. Talk about your topics and
examples. Make sure all the
participants speak. (This dish is
prepared with…. Right now in this
city there is a music festival… )
Valeria: I recommend visiting Alaska
since it has an incredible gastronomy
especially for fish and among these
salmon stands out. I recommend eating
akutaq, it is a delicious ice cream, where
its ingredients are berries, meat, animal
and vegetable fat, you cannot miss i
Alexis: Valeria too Alaska Numerous
music and theater festivals are held in
Alaska, many of them organized by the
Alaska Humanities Council. These
festivals promote the representation of
local stories and traditions, such as the
work entitled Cry of the Wild Man, the
dances of Russian origin of Sitka, or the
music of the violinists of the Yukon Valley.
Laura: I recommend traveling to Alaska,
its climate is fantastic for those who love
the cold, I recommend trying all the food
you can since the gastronomy here is very
varied, you can choose between forty-nine
types of fish, in addition to red salmon
(sockeye) , I recommend you eat seafood
or if you prefer game meat such as deer,
elk and poultry. Living in Alaska is
cheaper than in Hong Kong, plus Alaska
is more populated than Vermont.
I recommend visiting the city of Alaska
called Barrow, each year they spend a
period of 65 days without seeing the sun.
This phenomenon is known as polar night,
it happens between November and
January. It is not always total darkness,
because every day a kind of “sunset” is
observed in the sky.
Laura: Currently a news from Alaska was
published about the eruption of the
volcano near Tonga, this was five hundred
times more powerful than the atomic
bomb on Hiroshima, the sound of the
eruption was so powerful that it could be
 heard as far as Alaska, this happened on
January 18, 2022.

Valeria: Alaska is noted primarily for

eating whale meat, fished primarily in the
spring and fall.This meat is stored until
winter, the part considered tastier is the
tail. Even the skin and fat are used, it is
eaten mainly raw and its flavor is similar to
that of veal

Alexis: Would you like to try whale meat?

Valeria: I feel like it should be the same

as fish and I don't really like sea food.

Alexis: I agree I don't like sea food.

Laura: In Alaska we can also find several

types of edible wild berries, some
vegetables are grown here. The main
agricultural region is the Matanuska
valley, in this place the size of the
vegetables is larger than in Bogotá. We
can find cabbage with more than twenty
kilograms and strawberries as big as the
fist of our hand. The long hours of light
and low temperatures make the plants
grow much more, in turn they store starch
and sugar. The flavors of these giant
vegetables and fruits are more intense
than what we normally eat.
In Alaska you must travel by boat or plane
to visit Juneau, as it is impossible to get
there by road. No other capital city in the
United States has this feature. In this state
there will be a concert by the piano boys
that will take place this year on May 14.

3. Express your opinions and ideas Valeria: Alaska is a city surrounded by

based on the topic of your video. nature, they pay you 2,000 dollars just to
Close the topic. live there, life here is too cheap, the
gastronomy is very exotic and you will not
regret coming here.
 Alexis: I would love to get to know Alaska
for its exotic cuisine and because it is an
unusual place, something different from
what we are used to when it comes to
vacations.

Laura: Traveling is an incredible

experience, in addition to learning about
new cultures you can interact with
different people. Alaska, although it has a
very cold climate, seems spectacular to
me since you can do countless activities,
you can also see the northern lights and it
would be wonderful one day to be able to
live this moment. I recommend traveling to
this place, you will not regret it, if one day
you visit it, do not forget to bring warm
clothes.

ENDING
Laura: Until next time friends, thanks for
Farewell your attention.
(Say goodbye using a common
expression.) Valeria: finally I thank you for your
attention, I hope you are encouraged to
come... we will meet again

Alexis: Thank you colleagues, I hope you

are encouraged to discover new places
that you never thought of going one day.
