Comparatives
 
Hi dear colleagues!
I �m looking for an easy oral comprehension (A2) to start a lesson on the comparatives. I couldn �t find anything satisfying in my Cds so far and I was hoping someone may help here. Any ideas?
Thanks very much and... happy Easter to you all!
Regards,
Audrey

turtle x lion - Turtles are slower than lions. Cheetahs are the fastest animals.
