News in EC

Tutor: Izabel Kophee

Students: Anatoly(Russia), Megi, Chuan, Leslie Coy (Slovakia), Marina Deluxe, Gianni Deluxe (Italy), Mimi, Addar (Libya)

How do you get the news? That was a question we were supposed to answer. We were discussing various ways of getting informed. Most people mentioned the internet and news servers such as www.bbc.co.uk or http://www.arabnews.com/ that is a website, which I think Addar gets the news from. Addar also said that he likes to go and sit in a coffee shop to have a coffee and read newspapers in the morning.  Some people mentioned twitter that is an online social site. We can actually say that it’s ‘a word of mouth’ style of news online. ‘Word of mouth’ means that people pass news amongst themselves just by talking about it. Anatoly gave us a link to his entry in student’s blog http://studentsblog.languagelab.com/post/45369002105/bad-news.

Then Izzy took us to a place in the EC, where we can find news. It is called The City News. Its a place, where it is possible to find any news from all over the world and read them.
