Bonsoir,
Pouvez-vous m'aider à corriger mon expression?
J'ai mis mon expression en français puis en anglais. Merci d'avance.
Billy est un adolescent qui vit dans une ville minière en Angleterre, dans une maison de brique identique à toutes celles du voisinage avec son père Jackie, son grand frère Tony et sa grand-mère. Sa mère est décédée. Billy va à l'école et prend des cours de boxe après la classe. Son père l'y accompagne et le pousse, croyant qu'une réussite dans ce domaine les sortira de l'embarras financier dans lequel ils sont. Mais la boxe ne lui plaît pas et il préférerait faire de la danse comme les filles à l'autre bout du gymnase. Alors, en secret de son père, il va à la danse plutôt qu'à la boxe.
La scène étudier commence au gymnase quand son père le surprend en train de danser. Billy est foncé de rentrer chez lui sans dire un mot. Billy savais qu’il avait déçu son père, pour lui la danse est un sport réservé aux filles. Et lui en tant que garçon devait pratiquer le football, la lutte, la boxe.. Son père culpabilise et se demande pourquoi son fils n’est pas comme ces autres camarades ? Mais Billy est obstiné, il affirme qu’il ne veut pas ressembler à tous ces amis, il dit a son père que ce sport le rend heureux. Et il ne comprend pas ce sport qui nécessite de s’ensanglanté, de se faire mal . Billy est décidé à poursuivre sa vocation pour la danse même si son père s’y oppose fortement.

> Billy is a teenager who lives in a mining city in England,
The word "town" would be better than "city" here. "Cities" are few in number, restricted to a group which would all have well-known names, and since the name is not given here, "city" feels unnatural. In contrast "towns" are small and numerous.
> to all those of the vicinity.
"in the vicinity (of x)" is a fixed idiom - not "of". In fact "in the vicinity of _x_" meaning "near to x" is so well established that "in the vicinity _of_" is expected, and "in the neighbourhood" would be perhaps more natural as the word "neighbourhood" is used frequently used standalone without the need to say what it is in the neighbourhood _of_. Example: it's not a nice neighbourhood. (=area [surrounding the place understood/assumed].
> takes boxing of courses after the class.
- ? don't understand this - does this mean "takes boxing lessons after school"? (and the word "course" doesn't fit here)
> His father accompanies him there
"accompany" is a bit too formal, and simply "comes/goes (along) with him" would be more natural.
> would remove them the pecuniary difficulty in which they are.
The word "pecuniary" is very formal, and rarely used. "financial difficulties" would be fine. The noun "difficulty" is used in the plural (compare "my hopes, dreams") when its used to mean the condition/situation in general surrounding something.
- "in which they are" is awkward and this word order can sound stilted;
- "the difficult/ies (that) they are in" would sound more natural. (or "their financial difficulties")
> of the gymnasium.
too formal - abbreviate to "gym" more natural and colloquial. The abbreviation is so common that the full word is not frequently heard.
> Then, in secrecy of his father, he goes to the dance rather than to boxing.
unfortunately you can't say "secrecy of (person-who-does-not-know)"; you can say "he (verb) in secret" or "he secretly (verb)" (example here: he secretly goes dancing) but there's not a way of saying who is being kept in the dark using these structures. But note: "he kept it [=activity, information] (a) secret from (person)"
So you'd have to say something like
unknown to his father, he secretly goes dancing
> goes to the dance
- "the dance" would mean "a particular _event_ where there is dancing", or a particular timed activity, because you used "the", rather than meaning the activity of dancing in general.
Examples: I go Salsa dancing whenever I can. I'm no good at dancing, but I like singing.
Their dancing was rubbish, but the singing part was great. (=a particular performance)
> The scene to study starts at the gymnasium
- don't understand this
> when his father surprises him dancing.
- need "catches him" here. Example: he caught me smoking, and I had promised him I would give up. [=saw x and x was smoking[
- "surprises him"
- examples: they surprised her by jumping out and revealing a birthday cake they had made for her.
His abilities surprised me[=be surprising, unexpected], I was impressed.
> Billy is forced to return at his place
- "return home"
> the dance is a sport reserved to the girls
- no "the"; and "dancing" would be better (but "dance" is used for "the art form" - compare "music", "drama", "fine art")
- needs to be "reserved _for_ (the) girls"
- and "dance" is not a "sport" in English. ("sports" are eg football, tennis; not singing, sculpture, acting) (Apart from in humourous usage: example: My favourite sport is drinking (=ie I don't do any physical activity at all)
> and him fighting,
- don't understand this
> boys of his old.
"of his age" [=boys who are the same age as him] ("old" is an adjective)
> him affirms that
"he" not "him"
and "affirms" is extremely formal and rarely used (in a courtroom, in philosophy logic, formal writing)
try "he is determined to (be/do x)..." or "he is determined that [clause]" so here
"he is deter
