CAPITULO 11 : La carretera más larga del mundo 🚧🛤🛣 CHAPTER 11 : The longest roadway in the world

Picture this: you’re standing at the coffee machine and a colleague comes over. You don’t know him very well. You both say hello and then you can’t think of much to say. You mumble* something about the weather (if you are British this is a sure thing. We love to talk about the weather) and then… nothing. 

Your mind goes blank* and you stand awkwardly looking at the coffee, wondering why it is taking so long to make…

Or picture this: you’ve joined a meeting online and there are one or two colleagues already there. You’re waiting for others to join and you have to pass the time. But the same thing happens … you can’t think of anything interesting to say and there is awkward silence….

In these situations we need small talk.

Episode 7: Small talk at work: an English learner’s guide

Esta leyenda es muy popular en los Llanos de Colombia y Venezuela. El Silbón es el espíritu de un joven que cometió un terrible crimen: mató a su propio padre. Después de ser maldecido por su abuelo, el joven fue condenado a vagar eternamente por los llanos, llevando consigo un saco lleno de los huesos de su padre.

Lo más aterrador de esta leyenda es que el Silbón se anuncia con un silbido largo y estremecedor, que comienza con una nota baja y sube hasta una muy alta. Se dice que si escuchas su silbido cerca, no hay peligro, pero si lo oyes de lejos, es porque está más cerca de lo que piensas.

A menudo aparece por las noches o en lugares solitarios, y su presencia es una señal de mal augurio. Algunos dicen que es capaz de atacar a borrachos y mujeres infieles, como castigo por sus pecados.

Lily's Chinese 对话

Are you ready to become a powerful presenter? As an educator, my mission is to unlock the presentation skills of my Business English (BE) students. In today's professional world, the ability to deliver captivating talks is a game-changer. In my classroom, I guide students on structuring their presentations, using impactful visuals, delivering engaging speeches, conquering nerves, and acing audience questions. By exploring the secrets of great presentations, we learn how to captivate audiences from the very beginning, organize ideas effectively, and leave a lasting impression. We delve into the art of visual design, creating visually stunning slides that enhance our messages. Through practice and feedback, students develop their unique speaking styles, mastering storytelling, body language, and voice variation. We address the fear of public speaking head-on, equipping students with techniques to manage nerves and build confidence. Additionally, we tackle the art of answering audience questions with poise and precision. With a supportive environment and practical strategies, I empower my students to become confident presenters who leave a lasting impact.

How to Present and Speak in Business

Swedish furniture company IKEA has opened a new store.

There's nothing strange about that. But wait a minute — the new store is inside a video game. And it's paying real people to work there!

IKEA advertised for 10 positions in a virtual store it has opened in Roblox — and got more than 178,000 applications!

Roblox is a popular online gaming platform that lets users play games and create their own.

IKEA has created The Co-Worker Game on the platform. And it needed some employees.

At the start of June, IKEA began looking for people aged 18 and over in the UK and Ireland to work as paid members of staff at the in-game store.

It said staff would help customers, and would be able to get promoted and move departments, just like in real life.

The company said it wanted to show that it does things a little differently.

Wes Davis from technology website The Verge called it a "weird" but "harmless" idea.

He said he'd never heard of other companies paying people to work in a game, but added that US company Walmart has already created a game on Roblox.

IKEA said its employees would be paid a little over $16.50 per hour during their work-from-home shifts, which is about the same as the company's other workers get paid in the UK.

The store opened on June 24. It's not clear how long the workers will be employed for, although the company said the positions would be on a "limited contract."

It also said anyone who didn't get a job could still experience the virtual store and win in-game prizes.
