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 (surtout qu’ils avaient l’impression – souvent fausse – de les exprimer maladroitement. ) Cependant, je ne vous demande pas de " raconter votre vie " si vous ne le désirez pas... Je souhaite juste vous voir vous exprimer sur tout sujet aussi " librement " que possible.
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 pouvez répondre.

1. - What's young people's main enemy?

2. - If you were to be a volunteer, what activity would you be useful at?

3. - 'All work and no play makes jack a dull boy… All play and no work makes Jack a silly boy!'

4. - Are you afraid of Time?



Vous pouvez choisir 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 la première réponse corrigée au mieux, je publierai ensuite la deuxième série... (sans changements donc ! ) Vous gagnez de la liberté (celle de ne pas parler de plusieurs sujets, ceux qui ne vous " inspirent pas "... Vous écrivez la longueur que vous voulez, vous pouvez choisir d'inventer, de plaisanter, ou de répondre avec sérieux... Nous vous suivrons !

Cet exercice sera pour vous un ou en fonction de la qualité de vos écrits et des difficultés (surmontées) dans la prestation...

Cet exercice sera corrigé (j'espère !) le jeudi 12 décembre 2024 ! Go for it! with THE FORCE.

Hello dear All,

Voici notre nouvel exercice d'expression: Let's Suggest. Je vous rappelle que vous devez essayer de suggérer des solutions qui vous satisfont!

ANSWER A: TOPIC 1 What is the main enemy of young people?
Please, indicate possible mistakes and underline what looks clumsy.

In my opinion, young people are impressionable and impatient.
Their fault is to want everything right away, and to imagine that they have the solution for everything, when they don't know much about it. These facts are particularly striking in teenagers.
Their enemies are other people. People they admire and want to imitate, even if they're often not the best examples.
The enemy is also their naivety, the difficulty they have in knowing and building their own personalities, and their inability to admit their own fragility. They're not interested in parents' experience and advice.
What's more, they're under pressure to do well at school, and their professional future is uncertain.
And now, with social networking and video games, some of them are going completely mad. And I'm not talking about the drugs that are circulating,
There isn't just one main enemy, but a whole host of them.

for your help!

Merci Gerold pour son aide

Their fault is to want everything right away, and to imagine that they have the solution for everything(even though they don't know much about.

Their enemies are other people: people they admire and want to imitate, even if they're often not the best examples.
( The major enemies of young people are also their naivety, the difficulty they have in knowing and building their own personalities, and their inability to admit their own fragility.

Hello dears!

No more suggestions about ANSWER A?... Pity!

Here is ANSWER B: please indicate possible mistakes and underline what looks clumsy!

ANSWER B: Topic 3. - 'All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy? All play and no work makes Jack a silly boy!'
It reminds me of what one of my highschool teachers used to say: 'extremes meet', and also of a sentence I came across a few years ago: 'What is the hardest to achieve is the happy medium'... It means in a general way that the challenge is for us to find the balance between 'too little' and 'too much'. It is particularly true when it comes to education, when we parents, along with teachers, have to avoid being too rigid as well as too permissive; and this is all the more difficult than the appropriate behaviour between 'no tolerance' and 'too much tolerance' must be considered specifically for each child (or pupil). We all know children we can leave to do what they want, and others we can't, unless they will harm themselves in some way. To conclude, let's meditate on this fine metaphor : 'life as the art of seeking, and eventually finding, the 'happy medium''...159 words

I hope this (very good) EXPRESSION will inspire you. Any comments are welcome! for your help!

Hello!

Here is my green (following gerold's suggestions, thank you!)

All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy? All play and no work makes Jack a silly boy!'
It reminds me of what one of my highschool high school teachers used to say: 'extremes meet', and also of a sentence I came across a few years ago: 'What is the hardest to achieve is the happy medium'...

We all know children we can leave to do let do what they want, and others we can't, unless fearing that they will harm themselves in some way. To conclude, let's meditate on this fine metaphor* : 'life as the art of seeking, and eventually finding, the 'happy medium''...

* I agree it is not a metaphor... Could it be an 'aphorism'?

Hello!
... We all know children we can leave to do let do what they want, and others we can't, unless (fearing that they will harm themselves (or Lest they should harm themselves (lest = de peur que)) in some way . To conclude, let's meditate on this fine metaphor* : 'life as the art of seeking, and eventually finding, the 'happy medium''...

* I agree it is not a metaphor... Could it be an 'aphorism'?

I'm not sure:

Aphorisme : Phrase qui résume en quelques mots une vérité fondamentale (Larousse)
Aphorism: Short phrase that says something true or wise (Oxford Dict.)

Perhaps "sentence" is more appropriate here.

Sorry, I don't know why it's all blue!
