Hi Michel, My answer for the last photo is in below: The picture shows two girls who are sitting at the table of a coffee shop in one of the busiest streets and chatting together. It seems that they are talking about something funny as their body languages are quite excited. From what I can find of the photo, it should a cold day as they covered each other under a thick sheet. I believe, the photo was taken by one of their friends who wanted to join soon and found them pretty happy while they were smiling. So she/he decided to take a photo of them as a good memory of that occasion. There are also a couple of items on the table like two bottles of water with two straws inside. There is also a flower right in the middle of the table. Most probably, they have done some shopping are sitting to get fresh and start shopping again! :)

[@Oxfordonlineenglish1]

Thanks for watching and sharing, Farzad! Here are some corrections for you: 1) '...their body language is...,' not, '...their body languages are...' 2) 'From what I can see in the photo...' not, 'find of'. 3) '...it might be a cold day,' not, 'should'. Hope this is useful for you!

The picture shows two girls sitting at a table in a cafe, looking very happy. In the middle of the picture, we have two girls holding a warm cup of coffee in their hands and having a good time laughing and talking with each other. In the foreground, we can see some things on the table, like two bottles of water, some plates and flowers. In the background, we can see a few people walking around, although we can't really recognize their faces because it's blurry and the picture only focuses on the two girls. You can see that they are pretty close to each other so I suppose that they are best friends. They are both sitting outside and sharing a scarf so it may be the end of autumn or the beginning of winter. The picture takes place in a cafe in some city and the photographer could be a third person/friend sitting with them or even a professional photographer since the picture looks really detailed.

They look very happy .In the background, there are some people walking around though we can't see their face In the foreground,we can see some plates,two water bottles and some flowers on the table. I suppose that they are best friend and they have met to each other after a long time. They are sharing a woollen scarf so it must be the winter season. May be the picture has taken from the next corner of the cafe focusing the two beautiful girls by a professional photographer.

Hello Micheal and Kasia. I am an english teacher at Carducci Primary School in Reggio Emilia. We are writing a message together, now, with my class, just to say"thanks!" My students (8/9 years old) were very happy with this video and found it very useful. Here's a descritption for the last picture: "There are two girls sitting at a bar table. They are in the foreground, drinking a cup of coffee. The girls look very happy and they're are smiling to each other. I suppose they are very good friends or they can be sisters. The picture must be taken by their mother, or a friend of them." Greetings from Reggio Emilia, Italy. Teacher Nicola and 3°A.

[@Oxfordonlineenglish1]

Thanks, Nicola! We're so happy that you found the lesson useful. Thank you for sharing your response. Here are some tips to help the response to be even better: 1) '...or they could be sisters,' not, 'can.' 2) The picture must have been taken by...' not, 'must be taken.' Hope this helps you!

[@cuihuawen1240]

The picture shows there are two young girls on the outside of a cafe somewhere in a city or town. In the foreground, there are two drinking bottles with black colour straws on the table, there is a bunch of chrysanthemum in the centre of the table. It must be the winter because some people in the background are wearing heavy coats. I suppose they're probably having hot chocolate because they both are holding a white cup tight with their bare hands, and they are also sharing a scarf, although they had had thick coats. I don't know who they are, either they were colleagues or friends or even sisters, It does not matter. One thing I am sure is that they enjoy their moment because they are looking at each other with a big smile. This picture reminds me a good friend of mine and some of the joyful moments that we have together. It makes me smiled when I am seeing this full of happiness pictures. Thank you for the lesson. It is very usfull.

[@Oxfordonlineenglish1]

Hi Cuihua, thanks for watching and sharing your answer. Here are a few corrections for you: 1) 'There are a bunch of chrysanthemums...' not, 'there is a bunch of chrysanthemum'. 2) 'It must be winter,' not, 'the winter'. 3) '...although they have thick coats,' not, 'had had'. Hope this helps you!

Thank you so much for this great lesson. This imagine shows two girls sitting around a table. They are looking each other. They are young and they have long blond straight hairs and they're thin. They're wearing a jumper and they have a blanket on their shoulders. For that reason I can understand that it's cold. The girl on the left is holding a cup of tee on her hands. It look warm. In the foreground there is a table and we can see two bottles of water and a little bunch of flowers on it. In the background the picture is blurry but I can see the street and peolpe walking or talking each other, so I think there is a city centre. Someone has taken this photo, for this reason I think there is another person with them, maybe one of their friends.

[@Oxfordonlineenglish1]

Hi Martina, thanks for watching and sharing. Here are a few corrections: 1) 'This image', not, 'imagine'. 2) '...long, blond straight hair,' not, '... blond straight hairs'. 3) '...cup of tea in her hands. It looks warm,' not, '...cup of tee on her hands. It look warm'. Hope this helps you!

[@aidajilkishinova]

In the photo there are two girls sitting close to each other at the cafe table outside. In the background there are quite a few people walking down the street, in the foreground there are two bottles of water, flowers on the table and so on. It must be cold, that’s why the girls try to warm themselves by covering with a wrap and drinking hot coffee. Judging by how they are rapt in conversation there is such an impression that they haven’t seen each other for ages! They both look enthusiastic and happy and most likely they are sharing latest splendid news with each other. I suppose, the photo was taken by a passerby, who is keen on taking pictures of everything he is interested in.

[@Oxfordonlineenglish1]

Thanks for sharing, Aida. Here are a few suggestions for you: 1) '...at a cafe table,' not, 'the'. 2) '...street. In the foreground there are...' not, '...street, in the foreground there are...'. 3) '...sharing the latest splendid news,' not, '...sharing latest splendid news'. Hope this helps you!

Here are some corrections for you: 1) '...some colorful umbrellas...' not, 'umbrella.' 2) '...hanging above a street,' may be a bit better than, 'on a street.' 3) 'This is like a rainbow.

The picture shows two white blond girls having tea together outside of what could be a coffee shop or restaurant downtown. In the middle of the table there are two bottles of water and some flowers. We can see that they are close friends because of the joy that their smiles express and the way they look at each other. Actually, I can't say the exact city where the picture was taken, due to the blurry background. But, it might be cold because the girls are wearing warm clothes. Finally, I suppose that a professional photographer took the photo because of the amazing editing.

Nice lesson. Here you go my try: The picture shows two smiley women sitting at a table and having a cup of joe. In the background, there are some other people in black passing by, contrasting with the two women in the foreground who are dressed in brighter colours. On the table, there are two bottles of water, artificial flowers and some other stuff. Given their appearances, I suppose the main characters of this picture are relatives, probably sisters. Maybe the woman on the left astonished the other woman by telling her boyfriend proposed to her the day before, (although there isn’t an engagement ring) Or probably the picture is taken just to show the greatness of coffee and the photographer was waiting for a great shot!

[@Oxfordonlineenglish1]

Thanks for sharing, Diego! You used a lot of excellent phrases. Here are a few suggestions: 1) '...by telling her that her boyfriend...' or, '...by saying her boyfriend...' not, '...by telling her boyfriend...'. 2) '...(engagement ring). Or probably...' not, '...engagement ring) Or probably'. 3) '...picture was taken...' not, 'is'. Hope this is useful for you!

[@stephanietorres6619]

Thank you so much for your enlightenment on this topic, I have learned a lot from this video Here is my response for the picture you gave us at the end of the video: This is a picture of two girls who are sitting side by side while sharing the same scarf on their shoulders. In the foreground of this image, I can see a round table with a fashionable colour, there are two bottles of white drinks and some white dishes around , there are also a blue box with some purple flowers on the top. In the middle of the picture, two girls are both looking at each other with cheerful smiles on their faces, they must have a very deep friendship or they have just experienced something fabulous together. Both of them are holding a cup of hot coffee in their hands which shows that it might be a cold day today but they are so enjoyable under this temperature. In the background of this image, there is an European style building, so I suggest that this picture must be taken in Europe. The photographer who took the picture only wanted to capture the emotion of these two girls, that's why there are some people who are walking on the street with unclear faces.

[@Oxfordonlineenglish1]

Thanks for sharing a fantastic response, Joanna! Here are some corrections for you: 1) '...around. There is also a blue box...' not, '...around , there are also a blue box...' 2) If you're talking about the same two girls from the beginning of your description, it is helpful to mention: '...middle of the picture, the two girls are both...' not, '...middle of the picture, two girls are both...' 3) '...but they are so comfortable in this temperature...' or, '...but they are really enjoying this temperature...' not, '...but they are so enjoyable under this temperature...' Hope this is useful for you!

Thank you for this video, my answer for the last photo is below: In the picture I can see two teenage girls who are sitting at a table next to each other. I think they are outside, because I can see some passengers and a building in the background. I suppose they're at a coffee shop. On the table are some red and pink flowers and two bottles of water. I think they're made of glass. They both got light, short hair. They are holding white cups, I suppose they're drinking coffee or tea. I guess it is a cold day, because they've got a white and red blanket over their shoulders. They are looking very happy.

[@Oxfordonlineenglish1]

Thank you for sharing! Excellent response. Here are some corrections for you: 1) A 'passenger' is someone inside of a vehicle. Did you mean 'pedestrians,' or, 'people walking by'? 2) 'They both have light...' not, 'They both got'. Hope this is useful for you!

Thanks for this video. It was very helpful. I'm currently preparing for a Duolingo English test and this is really helping me. In the picture there are two ladies sitting at a table and having a drink. The lady by the left seems to be cracking up the other one as she holds her cup with both hands while staring at the other lady and smiling. On the right is the other lady, holding her cup with both hands while looking excitingly surprised and staring at the one on the left. In front of them is a table with 2 transparent bottles with straws in them. In the background, there are people, although I'm not sure what they are doing. It looks like the two women might have stopped by a sit-out restaurant by a busy street to have a cup of coffee on a cold day. Maybe they are trying to keep themselves warm as they have also wrapped themselves with a thick cloth. They might be sisters or really good friends. The photographer must have been sitting at a table just across the ladies while they had their conversation, perhaps a friend of theirs.

[@Oxfordonlineenglish1]

That's great, Bernard. We're glad you found the lesson helpful for your exam. Here are some corrections for you: 1) 'The lady on the left...' not, 'by.' 2) '...just across from the ladies,' not, '...just across the ladies.' Hope this helps you!

14:43 In the foreground, the image shows two girls, who are probably married each other, when drinking coffee. I suppose the cafeteria, where two girls drink coffee, is located in a main street, where the crowds exist. Maybe the girls on the left had a surprise for her partner, and other girl was shocked, but as it is understood from her face, she must have been delighted. When we take the flowers into consideration on the table, they might be celebrating their anniversary.

In the background, there are so many people walk on the road. I think this photo was taken in front of the cafe by the professional photographer. I might this photographer is their another friend. Two girls must be happy and staring to each other because they order same menu. Maybe the weather is very cold so they are sharing the scraft together.

Thanks for sharing your answer, Richa! Glad the lesson was helpful for you. Here are a few suggestions for you: 1) '...two girls who are sitting together,' not, 'is'. 2) '...so many people walking...' not, 'walk'. 3) 'This photographer might be their friend,' not, 'I might this photographer is their another friend'. Hope this is useful for you!

@@Oxfordonlineenglish1 thank you for the correction! I was hesitant to use 'walk' or 'walking' before. Thank you!❤

A superb post! My answer for the first photo is: The photo shows a spectacular white beach. In the foreground, there is a table covered by a sky blue cloth. On top of the table on the left, you can see a yellowish shell and a pinkish shell lean against a water bottle. Next to them is a pair of sunglasses sitting on a book. Alongside of the book is a white sunscreen bottle. Beside the bottle is half of white sun hat featuring the photo. In the background, a narrow blue sea stretch to sweet looking white clouds and white beach respectively. I guess this was taken by some one who was on their honeymoon in a quiet hidden beach.

Nice response, Mei! Here are some corrections for you: 1) '...pinkish shell leaning against a water bottle,' not, 'lean.' 2) '...half of a white sun hat,' not, '...half of white sun hat.' 3) '...blue sea stretches...' not, 'stretch.' Hope this helps you!

Hello! Here is my answer for the last photo: The picture shows two girls chatting together and having probably some coffee or tea. They look pretty excited and happy. In the foreground, a table can be seen which in the middle has two botles of water and flowers. In the background, some buildings are showed and many people are walking so they might be in a café in the city center. In addition, it seems to be cold outside as they are covered with a kind of blanket. The two women seem to be having a great time as there is a smile on their faces. Maybe, they haven't seen each other in a while so they met again as one of them return from another country. Also, the picture may have been taken by another friend and after that, they are going to do as many activities as they can together! Hope you see this message!

[@Oxfordonlineenglish1]

Great, Celeste! You used some excellent phrases and vocabulary. Here are some corrections for you: 1) '...which has two bottles of water and flowers in the middle,' not, '...which in the middle has two botles of water and flowers'. 2) '...buildings are shown,' not, 'showed'. 3) '...one of them returned from another country,' not, 'return'. Hope this helps you!

Hi, I really want to thank you guys the effort you put into these educational videos. It is just amazing. Here it is my answer. In the picture there are two people sitting together, one in front the other, in the middle there is a wooden table, on the table there are several items such as some glasses , tea pots, a dish with a cookie on it and a small plant. They might be a couple, they seem to be unhappy or irritared, probably they are in the middle of an uncomfortable silence moment. Thank you
