Combination To American Lock

Et .. what do you do for a living?

When you're a teacher, and in particular English teacher, it may be useful not immediately disclose its business to new knowledge. Whether it's friends of friends met at a party, your fellow diners at a restaurant or too perfumed lady sitting next to you in the TGV, it is more thorns of say point blank the terrible truth ... It is better to show first how you're a nice girl, open, well bred and very funny ;-)
Then, when the fish is hooked, uncheck the arrow:
'Me? Well, actually I am a teacher. " ( Gloop -audible in the speaker-nurse) . 'English teacher'.

GASP! And then one of two things: either you address an embarrassed smile that ends the conversation, or is the door open to a litany of almost invariable, which usually begins with:
'Oh dear; especially do not make me talk, because even after all these years of English, I could not say a word! "

Sounds familiar?
In France, many believe that as long as you're not bilingual, it is zero. I hope you not?

Just yesterday, the TGV, in fact, I read a book not bad at all true that I recommend to beginners false reading in VO:

' Walter's Leg and Other Short Stories 'by Ruth Rendell (159 pages - 2000)
Minimum level required: B1
(to determine your level of reading, see the pages of June 09 of this blog)

It Collection 'Read in English' Pocket Book which I have already spoken on this blog (see post from 14/06/2009). This collection is interesting because the author, Ruth Rendell, writer known for his thrillers London-based well-crafted plots and writing high quality, not exception to the rule here either. Four new very different in this book are, as always in this collection, the text (full, non-adapted) is on the left and the right page are the most difficult words explained by words or definitions transparent. It's very well done for those who want to start reading in English without getting discouraged. There are even some fifty pages at the end of volume summarize the words seen in a long alphabetical list.

What changes is that, for once, new deductions are recent. You can also enjoy the same if you do not like crime stories, but rather soft compared with sordid stories invented by Roald Dahl, for example.

So next time you encounter a (an) English teacher, you can say
'Oh, okay. You know what? I often read books in their original version. I love it. "
No need to mention The Right page ;-)

How To Unblock Farmville Posts

'Cause This Is Thriller, thriller night ... "

in France in January is the month of the mo-ro-si-ty (I mean , even more than the rest of year, are we not known for being the largest consumers of anxiolytics in the world? ).

That's Why I propose to treat evil with evil with homeopathic treatment following: to put a small dose of anxiety in each of your time reading this month.
this end, I chose to recommend THE MOST ROMANTIC THRILLER of all times (not an oxymoron ;-).

' Rebecca ' by Daphne du Maurier (1938 - 380 pages )
Minimum level required: B2
(for determine your level of reading, see the pages of June 09 of this blog)
We did not better! Indeed, dear Alfred (Hitchcock) turned in a perfect adaptation awarded the Oscar for Best Picture in 1940 (click on the title of this message for more information).
is the story of a very young woman (whom we will never know the name) who marries a good man, Maxim de Winter, a widower for a year. After a honeymoon in southern Europe, the narrator follows him to his home in Cornwall, to discover that his beautiful home, the mythical Manderley, guard in every corner (and in the thoughts of all those who still live there) the trace of the previous Mrs. de Winter, the incomparable Rebecca. Poor chick apparently
unable to fill the vacuum created by the absence of the deceased, the narrator takes us with her into a downward spiral of anguish subtly determined.

All those who have ever felt (s) badly dressed (s), poorly educated (s), unloved (s), easily identify with this heroine and anti- share their anxieties, firstly due to his illness awkwardness (in French in the text by Daphne du Maurier), but also the atmosphere of the house, always at the frontier of the Gothic ...

You will see that just being Relative January do you look more so tedious!

NB: Arm yourself with patience for the first 3 chapters are long and complicated. Agree not understand everything and re-read them when you have finished the novel.
