Hi Rocio,

It's Graham. (We use it's when we say who is speaking - soy yo = it's me)

I won't correct you right away. I'll wait until Ásun tries the exercise too.

If you see that she hasn't written anything, could you remind her to do it before the next class?

See you.

3.What does he do?

4.How often do you go abroad? / How many times a week do you go to the theatre?

5.Where were you born?

7.What does he look like?

8.What was the hotel like? (What about the hotel? = and the hotel?)

9.What are you doing?

10. Both of your questions are grammatically correct but don't fit the answer. The question should be: Why are you smiling?

12.Did you enjoy Paris? / (Did you go anywhere for your last holiday? Doesn't really fit the answer)

15.Where are you going to go after the wedding? / Where are you going to visit for your holidays?
