    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! :)

      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.

      In the picture, there are two beautiful girls sitting at a table in a cafe.They are talking to each other and drinking hot coffee. 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.

    In the wonderful, spectacular view you can see tourists dragging their feet behind themselves. In the foreground there are two adorable friends having an nice chat with a nice hot tea or coffee. In the distance you can also see that they are out of focus as they are not the main focus on this image. I think the photographer is very professional as it is a beautiful view.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    • @Oxfordonlineenglish1
      @Oxfordonlineenglish1  3 года назад

      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!

    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.

    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
      @Oxfordonlineenglish1  3 года назад

      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!

The sky is blue with some clouds.

    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.

    The picture shows two friendly ladies sitting at a table in a cafe, they seem happy while sipping their cup of coffee or whatever that is in the cup, i can see people at the background walking by the street though their faces arent clear enough. On the table there are teo bottles of drinks with straw inside them. I suppose the ladies are not aware that the picture is being taken though i dont have an idea who took it but it was very well captured. I suppose they must have missed each other because their expression looks joyful.I think it is a very good photo taken to advertise the cafe showcasing how the customers enjoy their cup of coffee.

    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.

I think they both are best friends who might have come to spend their summer holidays in a cool place. Both of them are looking so happy and it seems like they are really enjoying this cold weather. The warmth can be seen in their smile. The coldness of weather can be observed from the shawl they are sharing and the cups of tea they have in their hands. In the background, we can see other people walking on the street while in the foreground, there is a round table containing flowers and some bottles on it. These girls might have come with some of their friends or family members as their photograph is captured by someone sitting in front of them who wanted to capture this lovely moment of theirs.

      Thanks for sharing, Aleena. Excellent response! Here are a few corrections for you:
      1) '...in their smiles,' not, 'smile'.
      2) '...coldness of the weather...' not, '...coldness of weather...'.
      3) '...table with flowers and some bottles...' not, 'containing'.
      Hope this helps 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.

      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!

    This a picture of two girls in the middle seems to be best friends sitting in a cafe. Both of them seems to have a great time talking to each other and enjoying their hot coffee. I think the weather is cold because they sharing one long scarf together. In the foreground, there is a roundtable with some flowers, and two bottles of water while in the background there are people walking on a path or street. I think this picture takes place in London, I am not sure who really took this picture but I guess one of the tourists take this picture while he was passing.

    1:35 In the picture I can see a beach, with beautiful palm trees on the left corner and small boats on the coast.
    2:22 A couple can be seen, sitting at the dinner table. They look sulky as if they just had an argument. Both of them are looking down, and avoiding eye contact.
    I liked your teaching style. The lady's has mentioned very logical tips like, "imagine the viewer cant see the picture when you are describing it".
    Watching youtube videos and chatting with people has meant my english has become more informal and I am no longer used to using proper grammar. So I need to revive my english language skills.

    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.

    Thank you for sharing this lesson! This is so useful for me to prepare in my english class tommorow. This is my example to describe the latest photo. The picture shows two girls who is sitting together. In the foreground, there are so many things on the table like two bottles of the water. 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 your lesson. I would like to send to you my practice:
    This picture shows 02 girls who may be best friends each other. They are taking a cup of coffee for each person, the girl is on the left laughs with a little bit shy on her face, I think there is 1st time she visits there. On other hand, the other isn't, she laughs naturally and seems totally enjoyable by herself. In the middle of this picture, we can see some flowers, 02 glass bottles and dishes on a table, I guess 02 girls are enjoying a special meals and beverages each other. In the foreground of this picture may be about actions or activities of tourists at a special event in spring season of USA. I'm not sure about who takes this picture, but I guess there is a friend of 02 girls or a professional photographer of special event.

    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!

    The picture shows us two girls, who are sitting in the city center in a cafe and drinking coffee. Both girls are wrapped in a blanket. They are looking at each other, laughing and enjoying drinks. On the left we see the girl with light hair , while on the right the girl with a ponytail. In the background there are people , who are walking along the street. In the foreground there are red and yellow flowers , a tablet and two bottles with water on the table. I suppose the person who makes this photo is their friend. He wants to safe this moment to show them later and remember these emotions.
