Slide 1:Travelling Abroad
Slide 2:Our lesson today is about travelling. Before I begin to explain some of the important things about travelling. Let me ask a few questions first. 1. How many students here travel in Korea during vacations? 2. How many students travel or have travelled to other countries during vacation? 3. How many students have travelled by airplane? We will be looking at 2 or 3 different conversation lessons that will help you to
speak English when travelling. First, we will look at our text book, there is a very simple conversation when
travelling, on how to get food.

Gives food, drinks, blankets and pillows, and other kinds of help.
