Francesca tells the story of day two from Team Green's side, in a short Italian text written for learners. In Milan there's a race through the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, and an opera performed right outside La Scala. We read it through, talk about the language in it, then read it again, so by the end you'll understand every word.

Francesca says "penso che per Pablo sia stato interessante": after "penso che", "I think that", Italian uses the subjunctive, so it's "sia stato", not "è stato". For a simple opinion she also uses "secondo me", "in my opinion", which takes the ordinary verb.
