Warm-up

Revise names of shops in the following way: Students sit in a sembcircle. Say the name of a shop. The first student has to name something that can be bought there. He/she then says a different name of a shop, and the next student has to respond in the same way. The person who cannot respond appropriately, or who repeats the name of a shop that has already been used, is out.

The whole section can be set for homework. To provide additional practice, you may ask students to do one of the following short writing tasks:

• Write the recipe for a dish you like.

» Write a section for a tourist brochure about shopping in your town or city.

1 Fruit: blackcurrant, pear, raspberry, tangerine. Vegetables: asparagus, aubergine, broccoli, red pepper. Fish: eel, herring, salmon, trout.

Meat: lamb, pork, turkey, veal

Exercises 6 and 7 focus on some of the literary features of the text: the images used to emphasise Tony Takitani's wifes shopaholic tendencies, and the way her feelings are described through body language.

Mówienie

The Focus of the section is talking about Poland in English; specifically, recommending things to buy as souvenirs. Exercise 4 deals with explaining Polish food in English.

Additional vocabulary inforrr.ation Local foods

The names of ethnic foods often do not have equivalents in other languages. Even if a translation can be found in a dictionary, it may be a rare, little-known word, if the food itself is not well known. Or the translation may be approximate and the food is not really the same. That is why an explanation is always preferable. Consider the examples in the exercise:

Piernik is a variety of gingerbread, and the smali, hard, fiat pierniczki are somewhat similar to ginger biscuits. However, English gingerbread doesn't normally contain honey, which is a key ingredient of Polish pierniki.

Krówki can be reasonably translated asfudge, although if theyre very sticky they are closer to toffee. The cult Polish name is worth mentioning in connection with the picture of a cow usually present on the sweets.
