WHITE FLAG by DIDO

"White Flag"

I know you think that I shouldn't still love you,
Or _______ you that.
But if I didn't say it, well I'd still have felt it
where's the sense in that?


I __________ I'm not trying to make your life harder
Or __________ to where we were


I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be


I know I left too much mess and
destruction to come back again
And I caused nothing but trouble
I understand if you can't talk to me again
And if you _____ by the rules of "it's over"
then I'm sure that that makes sense


I will _____ down with this ship
And I won't _____ my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will ____


And when we ______
Which I'm sure we will
All that was there
Will be there still
I'll let it ______
And hold my tongue
And you will _______
That I've moved on....


I will ____ down with this ship
And I won't ______ my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be


I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be


I will _____ down with this ship
And I won't _____ my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

My cool sock

I've just created my new voki avatar. She is going to tell you some sentences in the future tense: be going to. First, listen carefully to her. Then, write down the questions or click pause to answer them. As my cool sock ;) says, don't answer only yes or no. Try to give more explanations to your answers. Have fun and practice your speaking! good luck!

Travel/journey/trip/expedition/safari/ cruise/voyage

What is the difference between these words all concerning travel:


Travel/journey/trip/expedition/safari/ cruise/voyage 

• Journey describes travelling from one place to another over a considerable distance. That's why in the test sentence we are talking about is a three day journey. 

• Trip is often travelling to a place and coming back the same day and so it is not usually long. You are staying in a hotel on holiday and the travel company representative will organise trips to places of interest and you will come back to the hotel that day for your evening meal. 

• Tour describes travelling from one place after another over a period of days/weeks and visiting various towns/cities and in the end coming back to where you started. This is also a word used on the internet sometimes described as a virtual tour when you are shown a series of pictures describing the site you are looking at.
