Activity 2b Work in pairs. Ask and answer.  7 min
Objective: to give further practice in using geographical names
STEP 1: Draw the pupils’ attention to the two sentences in the Remember 
box. Ask why the preposition “to” is used in the first sentence with “the 
north of Uzbekistan” and why the preposition “in” is used in the second 
sentence with “the west of Uzbekistan”. Elicit the answers. At the end 
explain that if we are talking about the places located beyond the borders of 
a country, we use the preposition “to” with the words meaning geographical 
zones, and if we are talking about the places located within the borders of a 
country, we use the preposition “in” with the words meaning geographical 
zones.
STEP 2: Ask the pupils to work in pairs and take turns to ask and 
answer the questions about the places in Activity 2a.
