Susan Boyle- Eating My Words


Well, what a shock! What a night! I was really confident yesterday and predicted that Susan Boyle would win this year's Britain's Got Talent hands down and by a long margin. I was wrong, but hey, that's life. Totally unpredicatable and fascinating. The dynamic dance troupe "Diversity", who put on a truly spellbinding and electrifying display for the final, won a £100,000 prize and will perform in front of the Queen at the Royal Variety Performance. Susan Boyle was magnaminous in her praise for the winners. Judge Amanda Holden stole the show in her amazingly glamorous figure-hugging crimson Ralph and Russo dress.

In Seventh Heaven


This morning, worthy winners Diversity must be feeling very happy indeed. In fact, they will be over the moon, on cloud nine, elated, overjoyed, ecstatic. How will they cope with the pressures of the worldwide fame that will surely come their way? Only time will tell.....What do you think?

True Happiness is.....................
being with those you love and care about
doing whatever you want without any worries
eating your own homegrown produce
.................................................................................
.................................................................................

Lesson Idea: dictate the following phrases above and ask your students to jot down their ideas. Set a time limit and then get students to compare what they have written in pairs or small groups. This particular activity usually generates a lot of feelings and discussion.
