General English Level 3 GELEV3 Unit 04 Topic 04.doc LANGUAGE FOCUS 03 Reflexives In this activity you will find out about reflexive pronouns. Hiro says: Hiro: I want to be rich so I can buy myself a nice house, go out to restaurants, travel… Pedro says: Pedro: Now, we are young and I think we should enjoy our lives and ourselves. The students say: When you feel good about yourself, you feel happy. Everybody wants the best for himself or herself. Many rich people have everything, big houses, expensive cars, overseas holidays, but they don't feel good about themselves.
