Day 1. Monday. Cultural Zoom-in: 10 комментариев

  1. I likes Italy
    Famous landmark: The Colosseum in Rome
    People in Italy eat many kinds of food. They eat pasta, pizza, soup, cheese, and gelato. The food can be different in each city, and it is very yummy.
    People use the euro when they buy things in shops..

    1. This is a great start for your travel guide! Italy is a beautiful choice, and you included some very important details for visitors.

      However, we need to fix the Grammar Check requirement. In English, we don’t say «I likes»—we only add the -s to the verb when the subject is He, She, or It.

      1. Requirements Check
      Country & Landmark: ✅ Italy and the Colosseum.

      Diverse Cuisine: ✅ You listed pasta, pizza, soup, and gelato.

      Currency: ✅ You mentioned the Euro.

      Grammar (He/She + verb -s): ❌ Not yet. Let’s add a sentence about a local person!

  2. I choose Japan. One famous landmark is Mount Fuji.
    Local people eat a diverse cuisine. They eat sushi, rice, fish, and soup. The food can look foreign to tourists. People eats rice every day.
    In shops, people always use the yen.
    He likes Japanese food and eats sushi after school.

    1. You chose Japan, which is a perfect example of a country with a very diverse cuisine. Your grammar is much stronger in this version, and you successfully included the «He» sentence with the -s on the verb.

      Here is my feedback to make it 100% perfect:

      1. Requirements Check
      Country & Landmark: ✅ Japan and Mount Fuji.

      Diverse Cuisine: ✅ You mentioned sushi, rice, fish, and soup.

      Currency: ✅ You correctly identified the Yen.

      Grammar (He/She + -s): ✅ «He likes…» and «eats…» are perfect!

  3. I choose South Korea. There is a famous landmark called Gyeongbokgung Palace.
    Local people eat many different foods like kimchi, rice, noodles, and bibimbap. Korean food is spicy and very tasty.
    People uses the Korean won in shops.
    She likes eats kimchi.

    1. South Korea is a very popular destination, and Gyeongbokgung Palace is a beautiful landmark to visit. You did a good job describing the food and identifying the correct currency.

      Here is some feedback to help you fix the small grammar mistakes and make your guide perfect:

      1. Requirements Check
      Country & Landmark: ✅ South Korea and Gyeongbokgung Palace.

      Diverse Cuisine: ✅ You listed kimchi, rice, noodles, and bibimbap.

      Currency: ✅ You mentioned the Korean Won.

      Grammar (He/She + -s): ✅ You attempted the «-s» rule, but there is a small error in how the verbs are combined.

  4. Japan is a beautiful country in Asia. One famous landmark there is Mount Fuji. Many tourists like to visit it and take photos.

    Local people in Japan eat different kinds of food. They usually eat rice, sushi, noodles, fish, and soup. The food is tasty and healthy.

    People in shops use the Japanese yen as their currency.

    A student feels welcome in Japan. He likes the food and learns new traditions every day.

    1. This is your best version yet! You have a very clear structure, and your grammar is getting much more accurate. You successfully used the He + -s rule for «likes» and «learns.»

      Here is a quick final check of your guide:

      1. Demand Check
      Country & Landmark: ✅ Japan and Mount Fuji.

      Diverse Cuisine: ✅ You listed rice, sushi, noodles, fish, and soup.

      Currency: ✅ You correctly used the Japanese Yen.

      Grammar (He/She + -s): ✅ «He likes… and learns…» is perfect!

  5. Poland is a nice country for students to visit.
    A famous place in Poland is Wawel Castle. It is very old and many people go there to learn history.
    Polish food is very tasty. People eat pierogi, soup, bread, and meat. He eats pierogi with cheese and likes it a lot.
    People buy things in shops using the Polish zltoey.

    1. This is a great guide to Poland! You have included a very interesting landmark and some delicious food choices.

      I noticed a small spelling mistake with the currency, so let’s fix that to make your guide perfect.

      1. Requirements Check
      Country & Landmark: ✅ Poland and Wawel Castle.

      Diverse Cuisine: ✅ You mentioned pierogi, soup, bread, and meat.

      Currency: ✅ You identified the Zloty (though it needs a quick spelling fix!).

      Grammar Check (He/She + -s): ✅ «He eats… and likes…» is exactly what the task asked for!
