Evolution of the Characters' feelings

Hey,

today first warmed up with what you had done during the break and with what I did during the holidays... I adopted 24 cats!

Here is how you can react:

- You're pulling my leg, aren't you?
- You must be kidding me!
- Are you joking?
- You can't be serious!
- Oh come on! -> Cut the crap (**) / Stop your non sense! (*)

Then we continued speaking about the text and after making a quick recap of what had said about it, we analysed the characters' feelings in a chart. Here is what we said about Maria and Antonio:

Maria :

- At first, she is nervous
- And then, she is (++) anxious
- half-convinced
- hesitant
- suddenly enthused
- ... is staring at ... = horrified...?

Antonio :

- At the beginning, he is nervous too
- Then, he is more diplomatic than Maria
- He squeezes Maria's hand
- He is blank/ he shrugs
- He beams proudly
- And finally his face falls (disappointed)

Finally, we concluded with a graph of how to represent the evolution of the characters' feelings.

Vocabulary of the lesson:

"to be written by Lydia" (there is more than just one word...)

- enthused = elated

HW: you need to finish speaking about the characters (including the geneticist) and learn your lesson.
