Kratki pregled
Today, something a bit different! Let’s talk about gossip, curiosity, and how quickly information spreads. We’ll take a look at an incident that happened in the city where Lucija lives, and how fast the news got around.
Question: Are you the kind of person who has to know everything, even if it doesn’t directly involve you? Or do you just sip your coffee and stay out of it all? ☕ 👀 Let’s find out: are you more like Lucija or Šimun?
Transkripcija
| Šimun | Hej, kako si mi jutros? |
|---|---|
| Lucija | Evo, upravo iz kreveta. Vrijeme je za kavu i malo jutarnjeg skrolanja. |
| Šimun | A ne radiš danas? Mislio sam da ću dobiti informacije iz prve ruke! |
| Lucija | O čemu ti? |
| Šimun | Pa o pljački u Zagrebu! Čuo sam što se dogodilo. Budući da je to u ulici u kojoj radiš, mislio sam da si nešto vidjela ili čula. |
| Lucija | Aaa to! Pojma nemam, stvarno. Danas radim popodne, ali već sam dobila hrpu poruka. Mobitel mi stalno zvoni. Dosta mi je više! Svi me pitaju što se dogodilo, a ja kao da padam s Marsa. |
| Šimun | Eto, sad te i ja tlačim… |
| Lucija | Ma lako mi je za tebe! |
| Šimun | A znaš kako to ide, svi sve žele znati. Navodno da je pokradeno zlata u vrijednosti preko 500 000 eura. |
| Lucija | Ma daj! Stvarno? Pa kako to ljudi već znaju? Dogodilo se prije par sati. Još nisu ni objavili rezultate očevida. Ali da ti pravo kažem, meni ni iz džepa ni u džep. Ne zanima me i ne zamaram se baš previše time. |
| Šimun | Ajde, ajde, ne vjerujem ja da ti nećeš ništa doznati. Ako itko zna što se događa po gradu, to si ti! |
| Lucija | Haha, samo da stignem na posao… kad krene lavina informacija, javim ti sve! |
6.4 Zadatak 4: Razumijevanje
Read the questions and choose the best answer based on the dialogue.
6.4 Zadatak 5: Točno ili netočno
Mark each statement as točno (true) or netočno (false) based on what you heard in the conversation. If a statement refers to something not mentioned in the recording, mark it as ne znamo (we don’t know).
6.4 Zadatak 6: Što možemo zaključiti?
Choose the best answer. Think about what the dialogue tells us indirectly.
6.4 Zadatak 7: Tvoje mišljenje
🟦 Discussion Questions (in English):
Lucija says: Haha, samo da stignem na posao… kad krene lavina informacija, javim ti sve!
What do you think she really means by this?
- Will she be actively looking for information, or does she expect to hear everything without much effort?
- What does this sentence tell us about her workplace and the people around her?
Pre-class reflection
Before class, think about the questions below and be ready to share your answers. Don’t worry, it’s all in good fun! Let’s find out what kind of people you and your classmates are: curious, calm, nosy, chill… or all of the above? 😄
- Jesi li ti znatiželjna osoba? Želiš li sve znati?
- Voliš li tračeve?
- Kada se u tvojoj zgradi ili ulici nešto dogodi, moraš li sve odmah doznati ili te nije briga?
- Vrijedi li za tebe izraz “padam s Marsa” (kad nemaš pojma što se oko tebe događa)
- Tko u tvojoj obitelji ili među prijateljima uvijek prvi dozna informacije?
- Jesi li više kao Lucija (opušten/-a, nije te briga) ili Šimun (moraš sve znati)? Objasni.
