Hello and welcome to our forth class! 
In this lesson we´re going to continue reading about life plans and resolutions. 

• But first, take a look at these people, do you know them? Answer these questions: 

Who is a famous Irish writer?

Who wrote the film Rocky?

Who wrote the Harry Potter series?

3. How was James Joice earning a living (ganándose la vida) when he was 30?

4. How are the examples of Joyce, Stallone and Rowling different to Annie's situation?

5. Why does Ben tell Annie not to worry?

• Was the previous listening activity difficult for you? Try and do your best in answering the questions, and I'll give you the transcription of this audio next class and you'll see that it is not so difficult!
