NA1 - Lesson 6B: Reporting Verbs

In this lesson we ork with the topic of news. The language used on the news is quite difficult because there are a lot of omissions and the vocabulary is more precise than usual.
If you want to practise you should go to the international editions of newspapers, which are a bit easier to understand and they have really good articles to read. Here you are some examples:

• The Times
• The Gardian
• Le Monde Diplomatique
• The New York Times

I've found this listening about news, with headings so you can practise for the exam: click here

For the grammar point of this lesson, here you are some exercises to practise with reporting verbs:

• these are quite easy, with clues about using -ING or INFINITIVE : exercise 1    exercise 2
• a bit more difficult: exercise 3  exercise 4   exercise 5

See you in class!
