Scripts for lesson 16
Exercise 1: Healthy Basket
The photo beautifully captures a lively mix of newly harvested vegetables neatly arranged in a woven wicker basket with a handle.
The bountiful selection includes crunchy lettuce, a large zucchini, slender carrots, wholesome potatoes, vibrant red radishes, a delicate spring onion, a glossy eggplant, luscious tomatoes as well as succulent cherry tomatoes on the vine.
In addition to these, there's tender red cabbage, colorful red and green chilis, firm cucumbers, young green beans, and a single ear of golden corn.
It's a lavish assortment of vegetables that is astonishingly pristine and gives the impression of a high-quality gift hamper rather than homegrown produce.
With these ingredients at hand, I can't help but envision savoring not just crisp, fresh salads but also hearty, veggie-packed soups and stews.
My appetite has undoubtedly been stimulated.

Exercise 2: Don’t Forget to Smile!
In the photo, there's a young woman staring directly into the camera, wearing a beaming smile.
There are no lines or wrinkles on her forehead or around her eyes, and she appears to be in her late teens or early twenties.
Her hair is styled in loose, dark brown afro curls, with the right side swept back to expose her forehead, and the left side gently falling over her eye.
It's quite an impressive and attractive hairstyle.
As she smiles, her upper teeth are revealed, but it's a bit challenging to determine whether it's a brave grin or a genuinely joyful expression.
Nevertheless, her smile in the photo conveys a sense of warmth and a bubbly personality.

Exercise 3: Laugh Until You Cry
The photo captures a young man in a fit of laughter.
He's dressed casually in a light blue T-shirt and navy jeans, looking relaxed with unstyled hair.
It's distinctive that he's wearing slim, rectangular glasses with an elongated frame.
His eyes are shut, mouth wide open, and he's clutching his chest and abdomen, laughing so hard it seems like he might burst.
His laughter may have brought tears to his eyes, and he might even be struggling to catch his breath.
We can't tell what's tickling his funny bone, but it makes me realize that we don't often express our emotions so openly these days.
It's truly enviable to be able to express feelings so freely.
