PAIRS
Even though Mark didn’t ask for the file, Diana tells him that she misplaced it.
Was this a good idea? Why or why not?
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
When we contrast or correct
information, we use stress and
intonation (the way the voice goes
up and down) to make the words
we are contrasting stand out.
Listen and repeat.
It was on my desk this
mor
ning,
but it’s not here
now
.
That’s a
yel
low folder.
I’m looking for a
blu
e folder.
