The roles and personalities of the two doctors

Hey guys,

 

today you had to report your findings about the text and especially the two doctors. Here is what we said about them (1st part and 2nd part):

 

2nd part: The doctor
Contrary to the inspector, Carl Travers is kinder and warmer. He doesn't gives orders and he tries to reassure Jacob. He gives him advice: he should calm down. He asks questions to know the reasons why Jacob doesn't want to go back to Russia. He is interested in his life. He cares for him. He is humane.

Voc: kind / warm / humane
(to) reassure
(to) be interested in...
(to) care for...
(to) calm down

the reason why

Then we classified all the verbs ending with /ed/ in a chart with their correct pronunciation:

Phonetics:
[t]
looked, marked, ached, asked, laughed

[d]
obeyed, leaned, realized, pulled, filled, moved, healed, entered, surprised, straightened

[id]
blurted

 

HW:

- préparez-vous à lire le texte en faisant particulièrement attention aux /-ed/

- faites vos fiches lexicales (mettez-les à jour)

- Répondez à la question suivante: comment expliquez-vous les deux comportements différents des docteurs? (faites au moins 3 suppositions pour chaque personnage)
