Then we continued the lesson with the correction of your essays. Here are the pieces of advice I gave you:
- Grammar: Everybody is ... Everything is ... = + verbe au singulier
- /very/ on ne rajoute pas "very" sur des adjectifs extrêmes / adjectifs dits "saturés" (ex: true / terrified / wonderful / ...) Il faut utiliser une autre forme pour intensifier si on veut le faire. Il s'agira de choisir un adverbe:
quite / really / absolutely / completely / awful
I can't imagine eating larvae... It would be quite awful! - so + adj ... that .... - At that moment, ... = à ce moment-là, ...
- Dialogue: introduction des verbes du discours. L'ordre par rapport à la phrase classique ne change pas. On n'inverse pas le sujet - verbe comme on peut le faire parfois en français:
"...", he said politely = S + V + Cpmt
- Verbe de sentiment + V- ing. ex: I prefer eating crickets to larvae.
- Voc: - One day, ...... - To entera room - To go up to someone ≠ To approach(terme militaire uniquement) - Cohérence temporelle: Veiller à ce que le temps de la narration soit bien toujours le prétérit.
HW: don't forget that on Wed. you will have your final test on the sequence "Robots and the Future".

Warm up : How to survive in the Wild<br />
<br />
--> The man who used to be a marine is / insane !<br />
/ crazy !<br />
<br />
He always eats raw insects. It's / disgusting.<br />
/ gross.<br />
<br />
Even if it is a good source of proteins, I would not eat larva. Maybe I would try it for money as lmong as it was cooked.<br />
<br />
Vocbulary :<br />
<br />
- Yummy / tasty / delicious.<br />
- crickets<br />
- auts<br />
- larvas<br />
