Have something done
Remember that we use 'to have something done' when asking (or paying) people to do things for us. If you want to practise the structure, click here for the English File website and here for another website to listen to a podcast about it and play a game. The podcast also shows you synonyms of the structure. The game is like 'The Weakest Link'. See if you can answer get all 500 points in a category. Click on the option for one or two players to start.

Get rid of your old clothes
Here's a video of an American man throwing out clothes he hasn't worn in 10 years. Watch it and see how much you can understand... he talks REALLY fast, but you will be surprised at how much you can follow. Listen for words you have seen in the course to describe clothes... and how many times he says the word 'hideous'. Notice American words such as 'pants' for 'trousers'. Do you think he should keep any of these clothes? Leave a comment.
