Pide a tus compañeros que tomen nota detus errores y opiniones sobre tu monólogo. Al acabar, debéis constratar opinionesentre todos.************* Ejemplo práctico de monólogo (El ejemplo que expongo a continuación es similar a una pregunta de monólogo denivel intermediate de un examen de la EOI de Galicia).Vamos a suponer, que la pregunta es la siguiente: Question: Look at the pictures below which show two ways of staying in touchwith friends. - Which way of staying in touch with your friends do you prefer? Why?- How has the way of staying in touch with people changed over the years?- What are the advantanges or disvantages of each of these options? 1) Preparo mi esquema utilizando la técnica queacabo de aprender Introduction :Who am I, what I do I do, where do I live. Body. ã I like to meet my friends in person rather than on Facebook. ã Reasons why I like to meet my friends personally ã The ways to stay in touch with people have changed because of the use of technology. We can communicate much faster, almost instantly. Another advantageis that you can even be in contact with friends who are very far away from whereyou live. ã One disadvantage is: we have become more impersonal and selective. ã One advantage of personal interaction: it is easier to find out how your friends are feeling. ã One disadvantange of personal interaction: you spend more time travelingand it's more expensive. Conclusion Nowadays, it's much easier to stay in touch with people , but it's also much easier not to make an effort to solve problems with your friends. Vocabulario : mood (estado de ánimo), stay in touch, gestures (gestos), feelings(sentimientos), on the internet, videoconference. 2) Expongo mi monólogo en dos minutos (Introduction) My name is Juan Álvarez. I'm an IT professional and I live in Valencia.I'm going totalk about how I like to stay in touch with friends. (Alternative) I'll talk to you about a), b) c) Feel free to interrupt me with questions whenever you like. Or, if you have any questions there will be an opportunity to ask them at the end at the end of my presentation. (Body) First of all, I would like say that I stay in touch with friends in person and on theinternet too. I prefer to see my friends in bars, pubs or at home becausecommunication with them is a lot easier. You can find out how they feel, you cansee their gestures, listen to them and check whether they are in a good or badmood.On the other hand, I don't mind staying in touch with them through Facebook or Twitter. Personally, I use Facebook to stay in touch with friends that I can't seebecause they live in another city or country.This is one of the advantages of using Facebook to stay in touch with friends. Another advantage is that communication can be instant even if your friends are indifferent cities. You can also use Facebook to share interesting information andpictures with your friends, which is always nice.Talking about disvantages; the main one for me is that it's a very impersonal way tocommunicate, you need to see your friends to know how they really feel and to askthem for advice, for example. This is easier when you see your friends in person. Another advantage of seeing yours friends in person is that you can talk for alonger time without getting tired. If you are on a social network such as Facebook,you have to be typing all the time unless you communicate by videoconference.One disadvantage of meeting yours friends personally is that it takes much longer,and sometimes it's more expensive. You have to go to a certain place to meet themand pay for the food and drinks you order. But, in my case, I don't really mindspending my money this way because for me it's always nice to see my friends.To answer the question How has the way of staying in touch with friendschanged? , I'd say that now it's much easier than in the past, because it's notnecessary to travel anywhere to know how they are doing, with a single click youcan access Facebook and see the updates they have written on Facebook, thepictures they have posted or send them an instant message. (Conclusion) In conclusion, I'd like to say that even though nowadays it's much easier to stay intouch with your friends, it's also much easier to break up with them. All you need isto unfriend them on Facebook. That's the reason why I prefer to meet up with myfriends in a pub or bar, or even at home.
