Or
if you prefer, you could imagine you are sharing a flat in Rome and
that one of your flatmates is leaving soon. Write an advertisement to
put on a university noticeboard to try and find a new flatmate.
Include information about the rent, bills, the other flatmates, any
rules or preferences and contact details. This
was in the exam one year!

So
the next real-time video conference lesson is in our class time at
11.00 on Monday. You have to go to Google Meet in your Google
options, clicking on the square icon with 9 points on the top right
of the homepage of your institutional mail. The group will be called:
'lettorato1young' but I'll put the link on your Classroom Stream at
10.45.
You
need to deactivate your microphone at least at the start, otherwise,
it will be difficult to hear. Then I'll ask someone to speak and they
have to activate the microphone. You can write to me and the other
students in Chat at the top on the right. Activate your video link,
so I can see you.
Have
your book and Extra 1 ready.
