5. Extending Conversations • Follow-up questions • Ask short questions (p. 13) • Turn the question back

6. Turning the question back The following questions can effectively be used to “turn back” a question that was asked to you: - How about you? - What about you? - And you?

7. Example A. What did you do yesterday? B. I went to the beach in Gampo. How about you? (What did you do yesterday?) A. I watched a movie ...

8. Mistake #1: Asking about quality The following is a common error using similar language of “turning back” the question: A. I just got a new Galaxy S4. B. Really? How about it? How do you like it? What do you think of it? How is it?

9. Mistake #2: Changing to a more specific or similar topic When changing to new topics, many ESL students ask a similar faulty question: A. I just came to Korea last month. B. How about Korean food? How do you like Korean food? What do you think of Korean food? *Can you eat Korean food?

17. Look at these examples: Simple Actions • I brush my teeth every day. • My teeth are cleaned once a month. • I have my teeth cleaned once a month. I get my teeth cleaned once a month. • I get my homework done in the library. • I have my homework done for me. * I always have my homework done before class.

19. Now practice with your new partner. • Use the questions in part C as models to discuss the services available in the Dongguk student center. EX. Where can I get (have) a passport photo taken? A: You can get (have) many different kinds of photos taken (done) at the campus photo shop.

20. Internet services • Talk with your partner about different websites that you know and use: • What kind of services can you do or get/have done at each? • What services do you use regularly? • What kinds of things would you never do or get/have done online? (for security reasons / safety, etc...)

21. Conversation Practice For this practice use the grammar from this unit (get/have ~ done) in different time tenses. EX. She gets her hair cut at the hairdresser near the office. He’s having his car serviced this weekend. I got my homework done last night. We’ll have our house painted next summer. *Talk about the subjects I give you freely, but try to use the language from page 39 as much as possible.
