NA1: Norah Jones and Lionel Richie (The Guardian Q & A)

You thought that I had forgotten about you, didn't you? Well the answer is no. We are going to read two interviews which were taken from a section in The Guardian Newspaper called Q & A. Here you have the links to the real interviews. You can read them and newxt Tuesday we'll discuss in class if they were very different from the ones in the textbook. What extra information did you get by reading the original interviews.

And you could have a little bit more extra reading practice by choosing someone you like in this section and reading his or her interview. OK? I've already chosen Tom Jones. Do you know why?
