You have a new job! You must be very excited, because your new job pays very well and you are going to do a lot of traveling. You are going to be an ambassador of Canadian culture. Let me tell you about your new job. You are going to fy all over the world to speak to small groups of people who are thinking about immigrating to Canada. You are going to teach them about Canadian culture and life in Canada, Let me repeat this. You will be an ambassador of Canadian culture, You are going to fly ail over the world to speak to small groups of people, and tell therm about Canadian culture and life in Canada, How will you do this? You are going to teach people about Canada by showing them 10 things ~ 10 objects — and talking about them. For example, maybe you can bring a hockey puck and tell the groups a bit about hockey and how Canadians love hockey, especially Canadian men. Now, since you are going to be traveling around, you must be able to pack your 10 objects into a suitcase. You can’t take the Parliament Buildings with you, but you could bring o picture of the Parliament Buildings. You can’t take a snowball. You can't take a hockey stick, because it’s too big. But you could take a small, miniature toy stick that would fit into the suitcase. You can take miniatures. So, your first job is to decide on 10 items to bring. I'd ike you to think for a few minutes and make a list of 10 items that will teach people everywhere about ife in Canada and Canadian culture. Think about what Canadians eat, what they do for fun, what they do at work, what Canadians wear, and where they spend their time. It shouldn't be too hard to come up with a list of 10 things. Part 2 We've decided that you shouldn't work alone, especialy since you will be traveling so much and because you are new on the job. We think it wil be better if you work with somebody, so we've hired a partner for you. Find your partner and compare your lists. See what you have that is the same, and what is different. You need to agree on 10 things, so you will each have to take away some things from your own fists. Talk about it together, and come up with a combined list of 10 things. Part 3 Now that you have your list, you should get ready to go. The next questions is: “Where are you going to travel to first?” Since it's your first try, we think you and your partner can decide which country you're going to vistt frst. ‘We want to know why, though. We need to know your reasons. Make your decision about where you wil go, why you will go there, and then write a short report. il need it in 20 minutes or less.SSSCSSSTST ETT TFSI TSSTTTT TTT TT TIATVITTTVTTTVG PrN este Me Activity: Canada In A Suitcase LISTENING COMPREHENSION QUESTIONS ‘What is your new job? ~ Tam an ambassador of Canadian culture.
