A) 1. How are Bolivian bedrooms similar and different to the bedrooms in the U.S? Write
your answer in English. Remember, you need to provide the lesson and page number
where you found the information. (4 points)
One similarity between Bolivian bedrooms and bedrooms in the U.S is that both typically have a bed, a nightstand, and a closet. However, one difference is that Bolivian bedrooms often have different types of flooring, such as ceramic tiles, while in the U.S, bedrooms typically have carpeted or wooden floors. I found this information in the lesson titled "Homes Around the World" on page 30.
B) 2. Describe 2 instances in which you would use the verbs Ser and Estar. Write your
answer in English. (2 points)
1) The verb ser is used to express inherent qualities or characteristics of a person or thing. For example, we use ser to say "Sandra is tall" or "The sky is blue." In these instances, the verb ser is used to describe a permanent attribute or state.
2) On the other hand, the verb estar is used to express temporary states or conditions. For instance, we use estar to say "I am tired" or "The cake is delicious." In these cases, estar is used to describe a transient state that can change over time.
These examples highlight the different uses of ser and estar in the Spanish language.
