Donna Ferrato: 'I saw that he was getting ready to hit her and I took the picture'&nbsp;
<img title="home a punt de pegar a una dona. Projecte 'I am unbatable'" src="//inclusion.womenslegacyproject.eu/uploads/resume/attachment/4146/20111108_FERRATO-slide-YDBX-custom1.jpg" alt="" width="480" height="320" />
I try to get into real people's lives and tell their stories. I was photographing a couple for some time. I was in their home, sleeping, when I heard the woman screaming. It was 2 a.m. and I could hear things crashing and breaking in the bathroom. I was scared because I knew the husband had a gun. I took my camera and went running down the hall. When I walked into the bathroom, I saw that he was going to hit her and I took the picture. His hand was in the air and I was shocked. That was the first time I saw him commit an act of violence, and my instinct was to take the picture first.&nbsp;
 But after I got the picture, I didn't just keep shooting. &nbsp;When I saw his hand go back to hit her a second time, I grabbed his arm and said, "What the hell are you doing? You're going to hurt her!" He said, "She's my wife and I have to teach her a lesson", but he didn't hit her again.&nbsp;
 When I was taking other photographs for I Am Unbeatable, my book on domestic violence, I was always divided: What is more important, to take a picture or defend the victim? If I chose to put down my camera and stop one man from hitting one woman, I'd be helping just one woman. However, if I got the picture, I could help countless more.&nbsp;
 Questions&nbsp; 1. How many times can you read the Past Simple of verbs TO BE, CAN, SEE and GET in the text?&nbsp;
2. How many negative sentences can you find?&nbsp;
3. Underline all verbs in the Past Simple and classify them into regular or irregular verbs. Write their infinitive form.&nbsp;

Distribuir a l'alumnat preferiblement en grups heterogenis perquè tothom puga participar segons el seu nivell, ja que algunes preguntes són més senzilles i altres més difícils.
Es necessitarà ordinador, projector i altaveus per al vídeo, així com un compte de Vimeo (gratuïta).
