Unit 3: What’s in a name?
Student A
1 Read each problem to your partner and ask them
for advice. Listen carefully to your partner’s
response and say whether you think it is good or
bad advice.
1 I don’t like it when my friends call me by my
nickname.
2 I want to buy a new phone but I don’t know which
one is best.
3 I’ve got a history exam tomorrow but I can’t
remember the important names and dates.
4 I want to buy a present for my dad but I don’t
know what to get.
Now listen carefully to your partner’s problems.
Choose one of the answers below to give some
advice. Use should, shouldn’t, ought to, have to,
don’t have to or must. If your partner disagrees
with the advice, suggest an alternative.
… finish your homework on time
… tell your friends that you’re busy
… worry about it because it’s not important
… tell her how to pronounce your name
… send it back to the manufacturer
… ask for a refund
… wear the same clothes as your friends
… have confidence in your own fashion choices
2 Imagine that you and your partner are going
to design a fashion brand. Together, think of a
good name for the brand. Discuss the following
questions:
• What kind of people will buy the clothing?
• What would they value about it, for example,
comfortable, cheap, fashionable?
• What kind of image should the name
communicate?
When you have finished discussing your ideas,
try to reach an agreement.
