    • That is an appropriate proverb that does fit here. However, according to the instructions above, in this activity, you’re expected to narrate the story, not the whole part, but some part of that. For example, you assume the responsibility to narrate the first minute of the video. This is an excellent activity to improve your listening and writing skills, summary writing, paraphrasing and the like.
