AFTER A WEEK WITHOUT CLASSES.... BACK TO WORK!

TO START WITH, WE ANALISED THE ARTICLE ABOUT HOW TO COPE WITH CULTURAL CLASHES. WE DISCUSSED THE DO AND DON'TS WHEN DOING BUSINESS ABROAD. THEN WE DID AN EXERCISE TO REVISE THE VOCABULARY OF THE ARTICLE AND FILLING IN THE GAPS.

THEN WE HAD ANOTHER SPEAKING ACTIVITY. WE WENT THROUGH A TEXT IN WHICH WE READ 2 DESCRIPTIONS OF PROBLEMS SOME MANAGERS HAD WHEN DOING BUSSINES ABROAD. WE SPECULATED ABOUT THE CAUSES FOR THE MISUNDERSTANDING.

FINALLY, WE HAD AN EXCERSISE TO RELATE THE NAMES OF COMPANIES, THEIR NATIONALIITES AND PRODUCT. FOR HOMEWORK, YOU HAD TO CHECK SOME NAMES TO MATCH THE DETAILS.
