Unit 3 Same or Different?
Section A (1a-Pronunciation)
Look and share
1. What is the possible relationship between the girls
in the photo?
The girls in the photo look very similar, so perhaps
they are twins.
2. What do they have in common?
They both have the same school uniform as well as
the same hair and facial features.
3. How are they different from each other?
The girl on the left seems more outgoing than the
one on the right, but it is hard to tell someone’s
character from one photo. The girl on the left is
holding a ping-pong bat and the girl on the right is
holding a book, so they may have different hobbies.
