¿Podrían ayudarme a traducir esto? Hola amigos, encontré estos dos párrafos en mi libro y no entiendo su coherencia: - " 'Claire, it's Ruth', Claire held back a sigh and walked into the kitchen to put the coffe machine on. A phone call from her sister was never over quickly. 'Ruth, darling. How are you?' As she waited for her sister to start describing in detail her latest disaster, Claire mulled over how much to reveal about her new business assignment. Her family would have to be told something, of course. Not that they ever came to visit, or called her home phone, or sent her letters. Still, it seemed only right to tell them it meant she was moving out for twelve months. Tuning back into the telephone call, Claire realised she had missed some key information and tried to catch up with what her sister was talking about" - "I met people from Calcutta, and Chile, and learnt that holding on to any stereotypes I might have about Americans would be about as useful as assuming that all European people lived on farms"

¿Cuál es la diferencia entre "Injuries" y "wounds"? Estaba haciendo mi tarea y descubrí que aparentemente no significan lo mismo. Pero, ¿por qué?

¿Cuál es más fuerte "must" o "had to"? Quiero saber cual de estos dos recursos representa más seriedad. Me gustaría saber si uno es más fuerte que otro, si son iguales o tienen alguna diferencia.

Writing about what happened today Today was a long and tiring day. I got up early, at 6:45. I had breakfast at 7:00. I ate cereals with honey, orange juice, a green tea and a kiwi. After that I went to my english class at 8:00. When I finished my class, I went to the gym. I did my best at the gym and because of that I'm very tired right now. I went back home at 10:45. When I arrived home I helped my mother to wash the dog. When I finished that, I take a bath. When I finished my bath, it was 12:00 so I decided it was time to listen to music. I had lunch at 13:00 and after that, I was going to do my english homework, but, instead of this I fell into the hands of the internet. I surfed the web for a few minutes until I remembered that the last night I joined in "italki" so I decided to enter to this site again. I discovered the fabulous world of italki and I spent four hours surfing this website. At 6 o'clock, I had tea and after that I played the bass for one hour. Later I did my english homework and finally I had dinner at 10:00. It’s half past ten right now, and I'm very tired so I am going to go to the bed soon. Tomorrow will be a long day again.
