  5. Extending Conversations • Follow-up questions • Ask short questions (p. 13) • Turn the question back

  6. Turning the question back The following questions can effectively be used to “turn back” a question that was asked to you: - How about you? - What about you? - And you?

  7. Example A. What did you do yesterday? B. I went to the beach in Gampo. How about you? (What did you do yesterday?) A. I watched a movie ...

  8. Mistake #1: Asking about quality The following is a common error using similar language of “turning back” the question: A. I just got a new Galaxy S4. B. Really? How about it? How do you like it? What do you think of it? How is it?

  9. Mistake #2: Changing to a more specific or similar topic When changing to new topics, many ESL students ask a similar faulty question: A. I just came to Korea last month. B. How about Korean food? How do you like Korean food? What do you think of Korean food? *Can you eat Korean food?

  10. Extending Conversations • Follow-up questions • Ask short questions (p. 13) • Turn the question back • Sounds to show active listening

  11. Common interjections by English speakers • Oh. / Oh? - shows mild surprise or disbelief • Umm... / Hmm... - shows you are thinking • Ah... - shows sudden realization or recognition Don’t confuse these three: uh-huh uh-uh uh-oh ´ ´ ´

  12. Extending Conversations • Follow-up questions • Ask short questions (p. 13) • Turn the question back • Sounds to show active listening • Ask an indirect question

  16. Taking Care of Business look at the work tasks on p. 37 What household “chores” do you wish you could get out of? - talk about why you don’t like doing each Are there any household chores you like doing? - talk about why you like doing these tasks

  17. Look at these examples: Simple Actions • I brush my teeth every day. • My teeth are cleaned once a month. • I have my teeth cleaned once a month. I get my teeth cleaned once a month. • I get my homework done in the library. • I have my homework done for me. * I always have my homework done before class. (present perfect) * * Complex Experiences

  18. Take a look at the floorplan on p. 39 • Work with your partner and do a sketch of the facilities in the Dongguk student center on this campus. • below the sketch make a list of the “services” or “tasks” you can have/get done in the various shops or kiosks there

  19. Now practice with your new partner. • Use the questions in part C as models to discuss the services available in the Dongguk student center. EX. Where can I get (have) a passport photo taken? A: You can get (have) many different kinds of photos taken (done) at the campus photo shop.

  20. Internet services • Talk with your partner about different websites that you know and use: • What kind of services can you do or get/have done at each? • What services do you use regularly? • What kinds of things would you never do or get/have done online? (for security reasons / safety, etc...)

  21. Conversation Practice For this practice use the grammar from this unit (get/have ~ done) in different time tenses. EX. She gets her hair cut at the hairdresser near the office. He’s having his car serviced this weekend. I got my homework done last night. We’ll have our house painted next summer. *Talk about the subjects I give you freely, but try to use the language from page 39 as much as possible.

  22. Talk about each thing for a few minutes • your school work or club activities • medical or dental work (visiting the doctor or dentist) • problems on this campus (things that need to be done?) What do you have to have/get done...? I have to get my science report written...
