Multiple matching texts

Reading and Use of English Part 7

FOCUS:The focus is on reading for detailed information.

You get a text which is broken up into 4-6 parts and ten questions. Your task is to match each question to the part that gives you the answer to the question. 

Once of the best places I ever visited. 

In 2017 I went alone to Bhutan for six weeks. I had always wanted to visit, since I was young. It was not possible for me to go as a tourist, so I applied for voluntary English teaching. I really loved it.

Get in to pairs 

Discuss different  reasons people might choose a particular holiday. 

Look at the photos on p. 22

After reading quickly through the texts, match the photos with the posts. 

What inspired these people to travel to these places?
