Summary
These days we have been improving our English skills and learning about American cultural topics.We know a lot about American slang. Today we will present some American slang to the class.
Firstly, we chose the slang come up for air. You use this slang when you are trying to tell another
person that he or she needs to relax. It is interesting for us because we have never used slang likethis in our cultures.
Secondly, we chose the slang Oops. You use this slang when you make a mistake.
Finally, we chose the slang I am beat. You use this slang when you feel really tired.
Our group presentation will be in three parts:
1. Power point presentation about the meaning of the slang and when we can use it.
2. A performance. Our plot will be focused on the practical use of the slang. The scene will be in anoffice where the office workers are stressed because their manager is bad, and thinks that all theemployees work is easy.
3. Finally we will have question time, when we answer some question about our presentation.

One can't reach a goal without having to suffer pain in somemanner, whether it's physical or mental. To be an excellent student,one has to study really hard. To be an excellent musician, one mayhave to practice a lot and give up other activities that one may wantto participate in. If one wants to be a superior athlete, one wouldprobably have to push oneself both mentally and physically, etc.

Summary
Actually it was not very easy to do the final project, but it was really interesting and
fantastic. We achieved our task by cooperation and every group member enjoyed the
process. At the beginning, we decided to do one slang, but it was too difficult to find
information about it, so we changed to a different slang after discussion. We think no
pain no gain is a better choice because we can do it perfectly. Then we began our
project. We included finding information, role playing and designing power point.
Fortunately, we completed our project and made it better than before. It was a
meaningful experience for us. At the end, we want to express our feeling of gratitude for
Elizabeth - thank you for all your teaching and hard work.
