Have You Ever

During the program you will listen to a conversation where Emmy Andrea and Dan discuss their experience travelling and trying new food.   You will recognize the use of present perfect tense to talk about a non-specific time in the past and the use of simple past to talk about specific times in the past.  You will also hear the use of the word “ever” to phrases they use to describe objects, places, people and actions.  You will get to call in and answer basic questions about the dialogue and try to use the new vocabulary you learned.
