How was your paper today?



Paper has many definitions. Check them out!
What paper? What is that supposed to mean? The tailings paper? The South African paper? the paper you've worked on for the last two weeks? the one you have to study for? The toilet paper? 

Often times, an exam  or test is also called “paper”, which is a more informal but very popular choice.


We'll have an exam next week, and I was wondering if you could work on accuracy* right now.  We'll work on words related to exams. 

I would like you to click on this link and watch this video. I can't promise it will be highly entertaining… BUT, it’s short, precise and has lots of useful words. You can also find the script if you want to move on faster.


This time, I would like you to make a comment making sure you use three of the expressions suggested in the video. Try to be accurate. Choose phrases you are comfortable with. At the end of the day, I would like you to use them in the future!


*(=to know the right word –e.g. mascara is what women use to make their eyelashes darker not something you would use to cover your face with!)

Thanks for sharing!

  1. Well, they talk really paused, have a very good pronunciation and the subs helps a lot, so I think I did well!

    I'm sorry but I don't think I going to attempt all three expressions that you ask for but there's no point in worrying out about it! (Oh wait!)

    cheers!
