The H5P checks the same forms with automatic feedback.

Your mission

Compare shopping in Honduras and in the U.K.: markets, malls or online stores. Where do you prefer to buy things for your career?

Option A · My career. Compare shopping in Honduras and in the U.K.: markets, malls or online stores. Where do you prefer to buy things for your career?
Option B · Cultural Corner III PAC. Boxing Day sales! Compare prices before and after: «It was £40, now it's £25». Add 1 fact from the official site and 1 sentence comparing with Honduras.

Model

In Honduras I buy fruit at the market. It's cheaper than the supermarket. In the U.K., Borough Market is very famous. For my career I buy books online.

Your career in this forum

Write about your career (its exact name in the UNAH Oferta Académica). Choose the example of your area and change it:

  • Health sciences: How many boxes of gloves do we need? — Ten boxes.
  • Engineering & technology: How much is this cable? — It's £8.99.
  • Business & economics: How many units are in stock?
  • Education, humanities & communication: How much is a ticket for the museum?
  • Environment, agriculture & tourism: I'd like a kilo of organic tomatoes.

Use 3 words of your career glossary.

Cultural connection · III PAC
