TAREA FINAL: Analizamos la publicidad

 


                                           Best Commercial: Olympic Games 2012 London - Best Job (P&G)

1. ¿Qué anuncia?

El anuncio "Best Job", lanzado por Procter & Gamble para los Juegos Olímpicos de 2012, rinde homenaje a las madres de los atletas. A través de una serie de escenas emotivas, muestra cómo estas mujeres acompañan a sus hijos desde la infancia hasta su éxito en la competición, resaltando su apoyo incondicional y sacrificio en cada etapa del camino.

2. ¿Quiénes son los protagonistas?

Las principales protagonistas son las madres de los atletas. El anuncio transmite la idea de que detrás de cada deportista olímpico hay una madre cuyo esfuerzo y dedicación han sido fundamentales para alcanzar el éxito.

3. ¿Cómo es su comportamiento?

Las madres son representadas como figuras de apoyo inquebrantable, siempre presentes en los momentos de esfuerzo y dificultad. La relación madre-hijo se refuerza a través de imágenes que reflejan el trabajo duro, la superación de obstáculos y el respaldo constante. La frase final, "The hardest job in the world is the best job in the world", enfatiza la idea de que ser madre es un desafío, pero también una experiencia gratificante.

4. ¿A quién va dirigido el anuncio? ¿Por qué?

El anuncio está dirigido principalmente a familias, y en especial a las madres, ya que P&G busca conectar emocionalmente con ellas. La marca, que comercializa productos de limpieza e higiene personal, utiliza este mensaje para reforzar su imagen como una empresa comprometida con el bienestar del hogar y la familia.

5. ¿Refleja la realidad? ¿Hay estereotipos?

Si bien el mensaje es positivo, el anuncio refuerza ciertos estereotipos de género. Presenta a la madre como la única figura responsable de la crianza y el apoyo emocional, mientras que los padres están ausentes. También transmite la idea de que el mayor logro de una mujer es el éxito de sus hijos, dejando de lado otras facetas de su identidad. Afortunadamente, en la actualidad este tipo de representación está evolucionando hacia una visión más equitativa.

6. ¿Se te ocurre alguna alternativa?

Una alternativa sería mostrar una visión más inclusiva de la crianza, incorporando la figura paterna o representando una mayor diversidad familiar. También se podría destacar a las madres en otros roles, no solo como cuidadoras, sino también como profesionales o personas con sus propias metas y aspiraciones.

Una mujer extraordinaria

 Una mujer extraordinaria que ha marcado mi vida es mi abuela. Cuando era pequeña, pasaba más tiempo con ella que con mi madre. Su recuerdo siempre me acompañará a lo largo de mi vida. 


Tres detalles sobre ella: 

1. Mujer con un gran corazón que se fue demasiado pronto.

2. Mujer valiente que sufrió mucho ya que la guerra le quitó a su primer marido. 

3. Mujer bondadosa que lo compartía todo.


Dos de sus actividades favoritas:

1. Le encantaba hacer punto.

2. Buena cocinera que hacía unas roscas riquísimas.


Un recuerdo de una acción memorable:

Por las tardes subíamos a un cerro con todas las vecinas de la zona a tomar el fresco. Allí cada uno salía de sus casas con su silla a cuestas, las madres y abuelas se sentaban a charlar y hacer punto mientras que las niñas y niños corríamos y jugábamos por el cerro.

BUILDING AND DEPARTMENTS

You have to create a shopping center!!! with the different floors, departments you want.

You are going to work in groups of 4 people in a collaborative way. You can distribute the work and give roles to create your SHOPPING CENTER. Maybe one is the person in charge of creating the apps, another thinkning how to work, another the one correcting the mistakes .....

You can use an app called CANVA to create an infographic where you can include all the information in order to present to the rest of the class.

You can work in a collaborative way using PADLET or DRIVE. Padlet is like a whiteboard where all of you can work at the same time including your works!

Then post your works :  https://padlet.com/fati_garcia/k5ixpafsi62a

Reported Speech -- Statements

You want to tell somebody what a person said. There are two ways of doing it:

You can repeat the speaker's exact words --- direct speech:
         John said, "I want to buy a car"
Or you can tell another person what John said --- reported speech:
         John said  (that) he wanted to buy a car.

Therefore, you  need to learn how to transform direct speech into reported speech:

Pronouns:
In reported speech, you often have to change the pronoun depending on who says what.

       She said, "I am ill"
       She said she was ill.

Tenses:

Direct Speech
Reported Speech
Present Simple
Past Simple
Present Continuous
Past Continuous
Past Simple
Past Perfect
Present Perfect
Past Perfect
Future (will)
Conditional (would)
Can
Could
Must
Had to

Place and time expressions:


Direct Speech
Reported Speech
Now
Then
Today, tonight
That day, that night
Tomorrow
The next/following day
Next week/year
The following week/year
Yesterday
The previous day
the day before
Last night
The previous night,
the night before
A week ago
A week before
Here
there
This, these
That, those

Reporting verbs:

In reported statements, reporting verbs are usually say or tell. The meaning is the same but the grammar is different:

Say ----      John said he was at home 
Tell somebody --- John told me he was at home
Say to somebody --- John  said to me he was at home

Passive - Present/Past simple

Passive voice is used when the focus is on the action; it's not important or not known who or what is performing the action:

. We use an active verb when we say "what the subject does"
                       My father built this house the last year.
  We use a passive verb when we say "what happens to the subject"
                       This house was built the last year.


. When we use passive, who or what causes the action is often unknown or unimportant.
                     Active:     Somebody stole my bike.
                     Passive:   My bike was stolen.


. Present Simple: 
                   Active:  clean(s), see(s),watch(es)......
                               Somebody cleans this room every day.
                   Passive:  am/is/are + cleaned /seen/ watched......
                                                     ( past participle (regular verbs+ed
                                                       irregular verbs 3rd column))
                              This room is cleaned every day.
                              I'm not often invited to parties.
                              
. Past simple:

                  Active:  cleaned, saw, watched......
                               Somebody cleaned this room yesterday.
                   Passive:  was/were + cleaned /seen/watched......
                                                     ( past participle (regular verbs+ed
                                                       irregular verbs 3rd column))
                              This room was cleaned yesterday.
                              When I was fifteen, I wasn't invited to parties.

Phrasal verbs - What did you do last Saturday?


The following text contains 10 highlighted phrasal verbs. Your task is to match them to the correct definitions.
On Saturdays I always have to get up early for work but last Saturday I woke up late, around 9am and then got up 30 minutes later.
The first thing I did is switch on the coffee maker. No instant coffee for me today! I took the time to make some good coffee. While that's getting ready, I quickly threw on some clothes and picked up a newspaper from the local shop.
With my coffee and paper, I spent the rest of the morning on the sofa. I turned off my phone for a couple of hours so no one called me.
Later in the day, I liked to hang out with friends over lunch and catched up with their news and gossip. It's always nice to drive out to the countryside for a pub-lunch in a quiet English pub.
In the evening I stayed in and watched some TV or, depending what's on, I checked out a film in the cinema.
All in all, that's my idea of a good day!

  •   1 - to start the energy flow of something:
  • 2 - to spend time with friends relaxing:
  • 3 - to open your eyes after sleeping/to stop sleeping:
  • 4 - to to quickly put on (wear) something:
  • 5 - to find out the latest information:
  • 6 - to physically get out of bed so you are not lying down:
  • 7 - to stay inside your home and not go outside:
  • 8 - to go and buy something (cheap):
  • 9 - to look at/watch/investigate
  • 10 - to stop something's power supply:




Phrasal verbs

A phrasal verb is a verb followed by an adverb. Phrasal verbs are part of a large group of verbs called "multi-word verbs". Multi-word verbs are very common, especially in spoken English. There are three types of multi-word verbs: prepositional verbs, phrasal verbs and phrasal-prepositional verbs. But for convenience many people refer to all multi-word verbs as phrasal verbs.
The meaning is different of the principal verb, for this reason it is important to study them using examples to understand the meaning.
