ANSWERS FOR DRAWING 2

QUESTIONS

  1. What is cough syrup?  

Cough syrup is a medicine. You drink cough syrup when you have the flu for example or when you cough.

  2. What does "today's drink special" taste like?

It tastes like medicine, like cough syrup.

  3. How do you understand "retarded name"? 

A retarded name is an old-fashioned name, a name which is out-of-date, fuddy-duddy.

MEANING &DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING

This drawing shows a man behind a bar who is presumably selling drinks to patrons. The funny side is that today's special is medicine and not what we would expect a barman to sell.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ANSWERS FOR DRAWING 3

QUESTIONS

  1. What is Burrito?

Burrito is flour tortilla (a sort of pancake)filled with refried beans and chile sauce, ground beef and chile sauce, or a combination of both, and rolled.

  2. Is Burrito usually cheap or expensive? 

Burrito is cheap rather than expensive.

  3. Does Drew like Burrito? 

No, he doesn't. He says he will never eat it again.

 4. Why does he say he will never eat Burrito again? 

He says he will never eat Burrito again because he ate too much of it when he was  at college.

MEANING &DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING

  5. Describe Drew's drawing.

This drawing is very simple. It shows a character holding something in his hand which looks like an exercise book or a packet. The character seems to be sweating. Actually what is important here is what this character says. We understand why he is sweating after reading the text - chile sauce can make you sweat really if there is too much of it in the food.

GRAMMAR REVIEW

"after going" and "after having gone" mean the same, but it is more usual to say "after going" than "after having gone".
