JENNIFER: It’s freezing outside! What happened to the 
weather report? I thought this cold front was 
supposed to pass.
GABRIELA: Yeah, I thought so too. That’s what I read online
this morning.
JENNIFER: I guess the wind chill is really driving down
the temperature.
GABRIELA: Can we go inside? I feel like my toes are starting to 
go numb.




LANGUAGE NOTES
• A “cold front” means a large mass of cold air. It can be plural: There were multiple cold 
fronts this January. 
• Here “supposed to” refers to something that is intended or expected to happen: I 
thought it was supposed to rain today. This phrase can be used for many situations: I 
thought the train was supposed to arrive at 9:00 a.m. sharp.
• Yeah / Yup / Uh huh are informal conversational cues used by native speakers in 
conversation. Each of these responses could be used here for “yes.” Gabriela affirms 
what Jennifer is saying. The most polite way to affirm a response is to say “yes.”
• Listen for the emphasis on “That’s what I read online this morning.” This useful 
phrase can be used with other verbs to convey information: That’s what I heard on the 
radio. / That’s what I saw on TV. / That’s what I read online.
• Chill / freezing / cold: These words describe cold weather. I feel the wind chill. / I feel 
the chill. / I am freezing. / I am cold.
• Wind chill is the effect of the wind making the temperature feel colder on a person’s 
skin. This is an uncountable noun. The temperature is 4 degrees, but with the wind chill 
it feels like -8. These phrases are used in weather reports as well.
• The phrase “driving down” means “forcing to be lower” and can be used in many 
situations. An oversupply of new houses is driving down sales prices in the area.

GASTRONOMIA MEXICANA.

En México, la preparación de comida nos caracteriza, en cada momento, en cada celebración, incluso en funerales, la comida es un referente, un elemento identitario que nos hace únicos en el mundo.

Además de formar parte importante en la vida de los mexicanos, nuestra comida es reconocida por su creatividad, diversidad, trascendencia; se compone de platillos en los que se refleja la riqueza cultural y de sabores que se ha acumulado a través del tiempo, desde la época prehispánica que se mezcla con la colonial e incluso la contemporánea.

Así que ya lo sabes, este día conmemora a nuestra gastronomía cocinando y comiendo platillos como los tacos, el pozole, los tamales, las quesadillas, las tlayudas, un rico mole, enchiladas o chilaquiles, todo hecho con ingredientes del campo mexicano.
