The mystery picture (description)

http://idata.over-blog.com/3/18/86/31/2nde/Detective-Stories/woman-gun-new-yorker.JPGHi guys, 

 

today we nearly finshed working on the description of the picture with the woman in the stairs.

Here is the presentation you made of the document:

 

The document is the cover of a magazine.

The character is a sexy / glamorous / fashionable woman with a red dress.

The scene takes place at a house or at a hotel in the stairs.

The scene takes place at night during Xmas time. 

 

During the lesson we mentionned how to make hypotheses in the present and in the past. Here are some sentences you made and that we are going to rephrase next time:

 

She is holding a telephone. She is calling 911.

She is holding a weapon (gun / knife / ...) but there is no blood.

Her husband is not dead. He is just sleeping or he is playing a joke

 

She has just killed him with a gun. 

She killed him but she didn't want to. It was an accident.

He is not dead but he has just fainted.

 

Vocab:

a thief / a murderer

a gift / a present

a painting

(to be) surprised / stunned

(to be) scared / shocked

___________________

Homework:

- Connaître sa leçon par coeur et être capable de donner quelques infos supplémentaires sur les motivations / émotions des personnages (prise de parole en continu sur le document de 2 minutes environ).
