Activity 1 (1)

Look carefully at this brainstorming chart, drawn up by Ali as he prepared to take part in a discussion.

The subject that Ali was thinking about was public transport. As you can see, he wrote this down in the middle of the chart.

He then thought about public transport, and came up with five links. These are 'buses', 'taxis', 'minibuses', 'trains' and 'environment'.

He then thought about each of these links in more detail, and came up with more links. For example, he has created links from 'trains' to 'commuting' and 'intercity'. He then created more links from these links.
