Hi everyone! Aqui vai o cartoon de hoje.
Funciona assim: eu apresento uma imagem com apenas uma fala, faço algumas perguntas, dou um exemplo e vocês usam a imaginação para dar suas próprias respostas em inglês nos comentários.

Essa é a casa / o lar perfeita(o) para vocês, sr. e sra. Donovan.

Essa é a casa / o lar perfeita(o) para vocês, sr. e sra. Donovan.

Perguntas

(a) Why are the Donovans looking for a new home? Por que os Donovan estão procurando uma nova casa?

(b) Why does the agent think this house is perfect for the Donovans? Por que o agente acha que esta casa é perfeita para os Donovan?

(c) Do you think the Donovans will buy the house? Why? Você acha que os Donovan vão comprar a casa? Por quê?

Minhas respostas

(a) Because Mrs. Donovan is an artist and she really wants a larger studio. Porque a sra. Donovan é artista, e ela quer muito um ateliê/estúdio maior.

(b) Because one of the 6 rooms in the house is very large and bright and would be perfect for an artist’s studio. Porque um dos 6 cômodos da casa é bem grande e iluminado e seria perfeito como estúdio de um artista.

(c) I don’t think so… The asking price is too high for the Donovans. Acho que não… O preço pedido é muito alto para os Donovan.

E você? Quais seriam as suas respostas? 

 

E aqui vai o PDF com o cartoon da semana passada – Which one do you want? – com todas as respostas para quem quiser guardar.

Hi Ana!
My answers: 

a) They are looking for a new home because Mr Donovans get a promotion in a different city. So they need move and the new salary will be enough to a bigger house!

b) To tell the truth I don´t think the agent is worry about if the house is or not is perfect to the Donovans. He is only interest in make bussiness.

c) Yes they will for sure. Both are with a full smiled face. They don´t care about the money, they like it! As if it´s was their dream-house.
