definitely. we did last year's for our mock (slowed down) and it was quite hard. i found this year pretty easy by comparison, although the last question and the one about the spanish movie with a teacher were both quite difficult


What did you get for the extreme sports and movie

What did you get for the extreme sports and movie


can't remember exactly, i think for the movie i got:
-director was from madrid
-he taught languages
-the adventure started when he left his job (probs wrong tho)
-he only had what he needed
-he found the boys when he stopped in the road
-it was educational (again pretty sure this is wrong)

for the extreme sports i only remember :
-you need the right clothing
-safety is expensive
-it helps you stop being bored
-helps you in your everyday life

Wasn't the movie a comedy? I heard she laughed a lot. For the rest I found the same yay except I put the director was from Barcelona is that wrong?

Rosa was the example on travelling far. One question was
'it was harder before now it is easier' - Rosa
'Compro linea' - Victor
'mundo virtual' - Julian
'contact with family' - Julian
'cannot use computer sometimes' - Julian


Yeah, that's what I got. Although it put me off a bit that Rosa and Victor had one but Julian had three...

I put the film was a comedy, although the director was from Madrid, the film got an award in Barcelona, which was a bit of a red herring. :angry:

Yeah it was a bit tough because they didn't even say Madrid, they said he was madrileno (with a squiggle over the n :smile:), which is the Madrid equivalent of a Londoner. Not fair!

I can't believe they'd do that, why do they hate us? There's no way I would have caught that :tongue:

Not the easiest listening I've done in my life :tongue:. Especially since I did French on Tuesday and thought that was quite a bit easier.
