Evidencia 2: Describing and comparing products
Conocer un producto es importante a la hora de distribuirlo y para describirlo en

inglés se necesita tener un buen conocimiento sobre el uso de los adjetivos y su
correcta posición en una oración, ya que estos adoptan un orden específico de
acuerdo con la característica que describen.
Adicionalmente, además de conocer de manera interna los productos de la

empresa a la cual se pertenece es necesario conocer los de la competencia. Por
ende, si se pretende expresar las ventajas de un producto para clientes de habla
inglesa, se debe tener en cuenta las estructuras relacionadas con los
comparativos y superlativos en dicho idioma.
Teniendo en cuenta lo anterior, para el desarrollo de esta evidencia, usted debe

escuchar un clip de audio en el que se presenta la descripción de 3 modelos
diferentes de un producto (sillas de trabajo para oficinas). Este clip de audio se
encuentra disponible adjunto al enlace de envío de esta evidencia bajo el nombre
de “Products review”. Descárguelo y guárdelo en su equipo para que pueda
escucharlo las veces que lo requiera.
Luego, con base en la información presentada para cada producto, desarrolle los
siguientes ítems.

supplementary material.
When writing the paragraphs, don´t forget to provide information related to:
 Product main features/characteristics

 Product benefits
 Product differences compared to other products of the same type
I will consider commercializing the Model 3 office chair, because this chair is the
cheapest of all and for my company,0 price determines its selling success in
different markets. Additional it has many colors available, colors that are more
used for offices.
This chair has a very good weight capacity and people in the today are very heavy.
This chair height is the lowest and it helps reducing the price when we need to
transport it.
