Next, they watch the video 10 ways to make flying more comfortable and answer video comprehension questions. They also complete the sentences based on the video with the missing words and expressions (e.g. connecting gate, terminal, upgrade, announcement, etc.) and then match them with the right explanations.

The student learns some formal and informal ways to give advice or a tip (e.g. I suggest that, I recommend that, I urge you, You’re gonna wanna, etc). They practice using these in an exercise where they need to transform a formal tip into an informal one and vice versa.
Finally, they think of two tips for some hypothetical situations.
