  2. Brainstorm Brainstorm possible features of a typical conversation between two neighbours who don’t know each other particularly well. You might wish to consider: -What types of topics might be discussed -How might the conversation differ from that of two close friends

  3. Phatic Communication Phatic communication is small talk. It’s only purpose is to reinforce social bonds. It is neither particularly informative nor deep. Can you think of any examples of phatic communication?

  4. Language and Power Now imagine you are the CEO of a large organisation. You’re an Alan Sugar type of character and you want people to know that you’re in charge. How might you communicate your authority through verbal and non-verbal communication?

  5. Read pages 9-13 of The Lovely Bones.

  6. In pairs, read aloud the dialogue on page 6 of your handbooks and make notes on the following questions • Who holds the power in this conversation? How do you know? • Is this the usual type of conversation you would expect to find between two neighbours of different ages? • What makes this speech realistic?
