Hello dear Friends!



Another easy exercice that everyone can do!
Je sais que l'Expression libre est la compétence la plus difficile à bien acquérir dans l'apprentissage d'une langue, même si elle est notre langue maternelle, d'ailleurs...
Certains m’avaient dit être gênés d’exprimer des idées personnelles ( - ils avaient l’impression – souvent fausse – de les exprimer maladroitement.

De plus, je pense que vous aurez maintenant compris que pour moi, toute expression, même maladroite, est intéressante et a de la valeur. Elle nous stimule tous à " trouver mieux " !


Voici les questions auxquelles vous pourrez répondre :
1. For you, is it better to forgive, or to forget?
2. Have you ever stolen anything?
3. ‘Leaving is dying a little!’ Do you agree?
4. Can you ‘define’ adolescence in three words and define (or explain) them, please.
Vous pouvez répondre à 1 ou 2 questions au choix – en notant bien les références - et développer celle(s) que vous voulez, jusqu’à atteindre en tout un maximum d’environ 150 mots.
Envoyez-moi vos réponses en mp et je publierai une première série que vous 'corrigerez' (en bleu d’abord pendant deux jours) puis en vert… Une fois le premier texte corrigé au mieux, je publierai ensuite la deuxième série... (sans changements donc !


Cet exercice sera pour vous un





Cet exercice sera corrigé (j'espère !)le lundi 27 mai ! Go for it! with THE FORCE.

Hello!
Our first ANSWER has arrived and is expecting your help!
ANSWER A: topic 2: please, indicate possible mistakes and underline what looks clumsy to you.
Question 2: No, I have never stolen voluntarly. I want to say that one time or two, it is possible that I forgot an article wich had hidden at the bottom of the caddy. I didn't see it, and the seller didn't see it either. When I put the thins in my car, I was sorry and rememberd that the price was not high, but I didn't go back to declare it.
We have often speaked about this with the teacher and my friends. All of my friends took things voluntarly and they say that this is not to steal, it is just because the stores have too much money, take too much money and in a way, they steal us. The prices could less high, and more people buy them. I learn economy at school and I think this is wrong, but my friends are right to do it if they can. 152 words.

Hello dears,

ANSWER B: topic 2: please, indicate possible mistakes and underline what looks or sounds clumsy to you...
why would I steal anything? and what could I steal? I don't really know!
Without being a billionaire, I have enough money to buy what I need and what I like.
Even if I was hungry, I wouldn't even be able to steal an apple from the supermarket, I would get by with anything
honest job for a bit of food. By my experience I can say that there's always a need for labour somewhere; it is easy to find a job for several hours, even if it is only for sweeping the yard and cleaning bins. We don't need to steal anything.
Some people steal or take the train without paying just for the fun of it. That's not the kind of fun my family has, we weren't brought up that way.
Thanks for your help.

A good text!

By my experience I can say that there's always a need for labour somewhere; it is easy to find a job for several hours, even if it is only for sweeping the yard and cleaning bins.

Bien sûr, tu as tout a fait raison, mais le droit de propriété n’est pas vraiment un concept très clair pour nos jeunes… sauf si leurs parents insistent vraiment. Certains vont même jusqu’à dire que leurs parents sont d’accord avec ces pratiques… J’ai toujours espéré que c’était pour se rendre importants auprès de leurs camarades… ]

Hello Magie,

Thanks for your feedback!
I don't really know = I really don't know OK
By my experience = On XXX basis of my experience/ on the basis of my experience (boff!)

For sweeping the yard and cleaning bins = Even if the work is unpleasant, it will still be better than stealing
