2.2. Discuss Clothing worn by different age group

"Where did you get that shirt?" Asks my roommate. It refers to the one I'mwearing
that is mustard-colored and has some very rare drawings in violet and green tones,
quite long and cool. "Aunt caught her at the Sunday market, everything at one
euro," I say. So is. Sometimes I think I have some kind of problem with flea
markets or thrift stores: okay, I love them. But not only that, I've become an expert
in finding treasures; Unique, modern and cheap clothes, what more could you ask
for? Little by little I have managed to get my group of friends to accompany me
every time a market is set up. The positions that most attract our attention are
those organized by the girls of, more or less, our age.

"It's as if I took all the clothes I do not want and put them on sale," my colleague
tells me, realizing that buying here is a great option and that it is very possible to
find clothes that fit our tastes. Before discovering these cheap outlets, we were the
typical ones who waited months with the same clothes until the sales came but we
did not go the first day, we lasted until the last week, when everything is less than
five euros or, as says my mother, "when there is nothing worthwhile". But all
skeptics of second-hand fashion would be surprised at the number of options there
are: a dress, for example, that seems to have no future, can be the protagonist of
the finale party, you will only need a handkerchief, a belt or two scissors. It is true,
you have to have a bit of skill or imagination but, really, it is possible.

Generations 'X', 'Y' and 'Z'.

And what am I?

Generation X

Although not very defined, Generation X covers people born after the baby
boomers, that is, people who were born between the 60s and the beginning of the
80s. In some countries, even people born at the end of this decade can even be
considered.

Although this generation is not very relevant at the pop and contemporary level, it
is true that it is much easier to understand if we tell you that characters such as the
writers David Foster Wallace or Bret Easton Ellis in the United States are part of it,
and for example , in Spain, generations known as, for example, the Nocilla or
Afterpop. It is characterized because that generation is, to put it in some way, the
first generation that does not know that there is a global and social concept as
such. In essence, they are the first who can change things and are not aware of it.
Currently, this profile covers ages ranging from thirty-five, as very young and up to
fifty, as very old.

GENERATION X: THE FIRST THAT CAN CHANGE THINGS (EVEN IF


THEY

ARE NOT AWARE OF IT).

Example of technological gadget: "Define gadget ... I am as technological as the


latest model that iPhone and Apple advise me to buy".

Examples of celebrities: Juliane Moore, Cate Blanchett, Beyoncé, Halle Berry or


Reese Witherspoon.

Generation Y or the feared MILLENIALS

How many times have you heard and / or read this word in recent months?
Hundreds not to say, thousands. For a while now, it is the fashionable term to refer
to young people born between the mid / late 80s and the late 90s, at the latest, the
2000s. One of the first to talk about it was Strauss & Howe in his book Millenials
Rising: the new great generation. However, let's leave aside the intellectual data.

The millennials are the young people of no more than thirty-five years old who,
thanks to the economic and cultural prosperity of the previous generation, are not
only better prepared at the academic level, but they are more open minded, they
want to break with the molds of what their parents have taught them and seek to
change things. All this, of course, has been propitiated and accelerated thanks to
the Internet, social networks and technology. What has that supposed? A change
in the way of understanding access to information as, for example, they value more
digitally, they have a multitasking behavior (multitasking), they are addicted to the
apps and have, at least, three or four social networks. All this means that they are
much more critical and demanding, not only with their environment but also when
consuming. They prefer everything personalized and unique, which also makes it
the most spoiled generation that has had everything much easier.

Do not forget the detail that this has made another generation, the Lost
Generation, despite so much technological progress, intangible and virtual, is the
one that is having more problems to find work or have some stability.

Example of technological gadget: the iPhone 6, iPhone 6s, waiting for the iPhone
7, the running shoes attached to the mobile phone to mark the miles.

Examples of celebrities: Jennifer Lawrence, Lupita Nyong'o, Rihanna or Robert


Pattinson.

Keywords to google: millennials, generation Y, Peter Pan syndrome.

Generation Z
This generation is the closest, only for the mere fact that adolescents have ceased
to be those young promises to be those who currently dominate the physical and
digital world. Born between the mid-90s and the decade of 2010, these young
people are fast, agile, have come to the world, literally, with technology and the use
of social networks under their arms. This virtual advantage entails, perhaps, a
deterioration in social relations. Come on, they know how to get 50k on Instagram
but, afterwards, they do not fully control their social or PR skills.

They are much more open to sexuality, so much so that sexual fluency is more
than common among them. identify with a gender or feel the need to do so.
Examples of this are, for example, the children of Will Smith, Jaden and Willow
Smith, the first not to stop starring in campaigns in which the genre no longer exists
or, the second, to star in covers and campaigns of signatures such as, for example,
Chanel. No need to comment on the phenomenon Kylie and Kendall Jenner that
dominate the real world thanks to its good work in social networks and the virtual.

Unit 3: That’s life


3.1 Talk about families

Communication in the family: seeks your trust

Family communication should be based on trust and not suspicion. We all must
know how to act with empathy, which means putting ourselves in the place of the
other both in the case of parents and children. And based on that family trust and
that empathy, it is logical that each one maintains and defends their criteria. Being
clear that the family is a hierarchy of love, to finish with the recipe of
communication in the family we must listen more and talk less, understand others
and express ourselves with affection and affection.

Keys to family communication Communication with the family is not always easy,
due to lack of time, multiple obligations ... and in another order, due to the different
ages of the children and their different maturity. Therefore, it is fundamental to
dedicate as parents a time in which each of them is excluded.

And also, follow these 8 recommendations:

1. A lot of patience. That does not mean that you consent to their bad ways and
lack of respect and do not put limits. You are his parents. You must and you have a
right.
2. Listen to him. It is vital. Understand and know what your child thinks about life,
others, himself. After listening to him and understanding him, give him criteria and
guidelines that help him grow and mature.

3. Do not enter into conflict with him. Tell him what you think about his behavior,
about his friends, about his ideas. Force him to listen to you and reflect on what
you have told him. Then, you can talk to the respect.

4. Be interested in his life without questioning him. Sometimes it is difficult, but this
is the line to follow. Put yourself in their place, you do not like your husband or your
wife to "interrogate you" either. There is a difference.

5. Do not overturn your anxiety in him. You worry that you let yourself be carried
away by friends, that you work badly, that you make bad grades, that you hurt
yourself. Communicate with serenity, without "keeping it at bay" just in case. In that
attitude, there are no limits.

6. Help him communicate his emotions. That he knows how you feel before a
certain attitude of his, and that he tells you how he feels before a concrete fact,
concern or decision of you as a father.

7. Do not vent on him. It is one thing to transmit our emotions and concerns, and
another to download with him. He is not trained, for example, to face or listen to our
problems with our husband or wife.

8. Respect your moments of intimacy. You see him worried but he does not want to
tell you what happens to him. Do not overwhelm him. But let him know that he can
count on you for what you need him.
3.2. Simple past and past continuous

La diferencia entre pasado simple y pasado continuo en inglés El pasadocontinuo


se forma con was / were más el gerundio (la forma -ing del verbo).

Usamos el pasado simple par narrar acontecimientos puntuales en el pasado, y el


pasado continuo para para ambientar o hablar de cosas que duraron cierto tiempo

Por ejemplo:

The sun was shining and birds were singing in the trees. A gentle breeze
wasblowing. Bob was walking along the street. He was smiling. Suddenly, he
heard

a voice behind him. He looked back and saw Sylvia.

Aquí el pasado continuo se usa para ambientar la escena y las cosas que pasan
de manera continua, y el pasado simple para acciones breves que pasan mientras
tanto... O sea, las acciones puntuales que lleva a cabo el señor Bob en medio de
la escena.

Eso es un uso básico del pasado simple: acciones puntuales y terminadas.

 I went to Paris last summer.

 The bus stopped and I got on.

 He ate a sandwich for lunch.

Ejemplos del pasado simple y continuo


Más ejemplos del pasado simple y pasado continuo – en todas estas frases se
habla de una acción larga, y otra corta que pasa en el medio:

 I was living in New York when I met Kathy.


 They were working in the garden when it started raining.
 She was eating lunch when the phone rang.
 He was already working when I finished university.
 I was sleeping when she arrived.

En español, estos tiempos se expresan muchas veces con el pretérito imperfecto e


indefinido: “Andaba por el parque cuando me crucé con él” seria en inglés “I was
walking in the park when I ran into him.”

Y ahora que estamos, fíjate en el segundo ejemplo.

Debería mencionar que “It started raining” no es pasado continuo, porque no utiliza
el verbo to be. Es un ejemplo del verb pattern start + gerundio, que es otro tema
que explico en detalle aquí: verb patterns esenciales.

Seguimos con las negaciones y las preguntas.

Negaciones y preguntas en pasado simple y continuo Para formar la negativa en


pasado simple, usamos didn’t y el verbo en infinitivo.

He arrived early. He didn’t arrive late.

She went to Rome. She didn’t go to Paris.

They walked to the museum. They didn’t take the bus.

La pregunta se hace poniendo did antes del sujeto.


What time did he arrive?

Where did she go?

How did they get to the museum?

Para hacer la negación en pasado continuo se usa wasn’t / weren’t.

I was walking home. I wasn’t walking to work.

She wasn’t sleeping, she was working.

He wasn’t eating lunch, he was having a beer with his friends.

Y se hace la pregunta con el auxiliar antes del sujeto.

What were you doing at 11 o’clock last night?

Where were you going when your car broke down?

Were you sleeping when I called?
