Anyone else hear about the man working in a shop dressing up like santa..?

got that, put C for the first part of his question and B for the second part I think?

don't remember anything from the paper tbqh! winged my way through it though, hopefully haha :tongue:

found that this was much more of an interpretation paper instead of previous ones which were far more straight forward imo, but ah well got the reading to look forward to on thurs! (and spanish next week waaa)

Pessimistic is the opposite of optimistic. ;D
Not feeling confident/positive about the future.

Yeah the question about Mali was certainly difficult! They definitely tried to trick you on that one! I think I put that she was optimistic about the future, not too sure why I put that though!

For the social issues, the second question did you guys get racism, because i heard that 2 girls in a hotel in Nice, France weren't given rooms because they were black - how racist

Was the steak overcooked? Also there is a massive debate at my school between furniture shop and factory for that stupid question!

I think it was that the steak was rare

The person definitely said the word rare in terms of the steak so im guessing it was undercooked?

I put overcooked as well, but talking to my friend they said they heard the word "bloody" (don't really know why they knew that word in French but hey!) so I'm not sure.. :frown:
