TEACHER: They are very strange days. 1________: Yes, we make bread at home and my father goes shopping once a week and he says that he doesn´t know anyone because everybody wears a mask on the face. And there is no toilet paper in the supermarket. 2________: I have seen some people playing music on special days on their balconies and other people play bingo there with their neighbours.
