Lessons 3-4  Talking turkey

Warm-up

1 Discuss in class.

What do you associate wIth the dish in the picture?
What do you think the title means?



Reading

2. A. Read two jumbled interviews about Christmas.

Decide which bits belong to Lydia, and which to Roy.
Put the numbers into the appropriate column and express the main Idea. The first one is done for you.

1 The thing is, you can't knock it, can you? It's a great time of year. I definitely still wish it could be Christmas every day and I can honestly say I still like the song. It's a good song, really.

2 Of course, I love the way Santa looks: great beard, cool boots and wild hair. He rocks. And I would like to wear a Santa's outfit on TV again. I'm definitely not into getting presents, although I do like to buy them. For me all I need is my mates, a nice relaxing time and a good laugh.
 
3 I think Christmas is just an excuse for us to spend money in horrible stores that have horrible, overpriced objects that no one truly wants or desires, I try to shop as little as possible. I hate to spend my money supporting corporations or slave traders.

4 I hate everything about Christmas I think it's the most horrible holiday based on gluttony and materialism. I didn't believe in the Bible in the first place, and Christmas isn't even the birth of Christ: it's been totally misdated.

5 I don't go in for all of the trees and decorations and lights and that rubbish. It's not that I'm against the commercialisation of it. That doesn't bother me, to be honest. No, I just think that it's a time to be with your mates. So you don't need all of that other stuff.

6 I hate Santa Claus, It's disgusting: a white-haired old man, a fat, jelly-bellied character coming down a chimney he couldn't fit down anyway, Elves? Never believed in them, ReIndeer? It's animal exploitation. If a stranger with white hair and a red suit came into my house. I'd shoot him first and ask questions later. And then I'd steal all the gifts and sell them down at the local flea market.
