"We are from Norway
, and have decided to
visit you in Argentina .
Why? Because we want to learn more about a country we hardly know a thing
about (some of the soccer players in the class had heard about Diego Maradona).
The climate and the size of your country seem very different from Norway.
Please tell us more about Argentina and the place where you live. We learn
to cook at school this year so we are especially interested in what food
you eat." From 1999. Read

"I would like to go to London
. I'd like to visit the
Big Ben, Buckingham Palace, Westimster Abbey and all the other famous places
in London. In my life I travelled in my contry.I visided Bologna, Rome, Mantova,
Parma, Florence and I went to the sea in Rimini and Riccione. The more
interesting city is ROME and i like best the Colosseum in Rome, the Uffizi
in Florence, the Dome in Bologna. I've never been abroad but I would like
to go to London because it's a very big town with a lot of monuments, historical
places and much more attractions than in my town."

Preparation for students
(discussions): Work in groups of four and look
the invitations through. Do you all agree? How do you solve a disagreement?
Do you vote? Are there other ways for you to reach a decision? Compare how
long it takes to go to the places you are interested in. Do you think it
matters how long the trip takes? Collect the invitations that interest you
most and put them on the billboard to help you to make the choice. Set up
a budget for the trip, including transportation, accommodation, food,
entertainment, museums, sport events, etc.
