30-Day writing -- CLOSURE
It's the end of the month and we're on a direct route to ending the year. It's a period of assessing ourselves and our performance over the past months, and of putting our priorities on a scale and asking ourselves what we did well and what we could have done better. Nonetheless, there're still 30 days to go, and therefore the question arises: What can I do for the next 30 days to better my life?
There are many options that I'd like to try, but as for my English, I'll just keep writing. But this time, not as a challenge, but as a method to use the English that I already know.
Also, I'd like to take this opportunity to thank all of those who joined the challenge. We were many! and not only that, in fact, what makes me truly happy is that we motivated a lot of learners to start their own challenge as well, which was also one of my reasons to do this activity as a group.
I'd also like to greet those silent readers who usually skim through the different texts in this section and invite them to drop a comment once in a while. And most importantly, many thanks to all of those who devoted part of their time to lend us a hand with our texts!
Learning a new language is really time-consuming, but absolutely worth it. So if you are just beginning to study a SL, then be patient because you have a long way to go, and if you are one of those polyglots, then I don't know how you do it, but I'd like to be like you when I grow up, haha.
See you!0 votedDecember 2, 20181Day 27 Reading (4)-2 Boy by Roald Dahil
(This entry continues after "Reading(4)-1 https://www.italki.com/notebook/5125373/entry/954074)
The other episode in the book I recall is about chocolates. When Roald was between ten to thirteen years old, a free choscolate box was handed out to each boy in his school. Inside the boxes there were new chocolate bars from a factory and the boys were asked to give feedback. The boys were required to write some comments in return for the splendid gift, like why they liked or disliked it. Roald wrote down, "Too subtle for the palate". He imagined how the chocolates were made in the factory and what kind of people made the luxury chocolates and later he began to write a book called, "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory."
My friend recommend me to read the next one, "Going solo" of Loald's autography and I purchased it and started to read. But I stopped at the beginning because it was written a lot about an airplane that he flew during the war. I thought it was a men's story but just now, I pulled out the book from the old shelf and glanced it. The story includes his various experiences in Africa, things that would never happen in Britain. Well, it might be just fantastic to read.
It was the first time that I opened Roald's books in fifteen years.
Thank you.0 votedDecember 2, 20182- día 17: Me encanta comer frutas y verduras Me encanta comer frutas y verduras
Sí. Me encanta eso. Pero esa oración es también el titulo de un libro que acabo de leer.
Es un libro para los niños y está escribido en dos idiomas; en inglés y en español. Es bastante corto; alrededor unos treinta páginas.
Por eso lo elegí ser el primer libro que leyera. Estoy contento con mi elección. Está divertido y un poco peculiar. También enseña buena costumbre de comer. Puedo pensar que tan los niños como sus padres les guste este libro. Para estudiantes del español, es excelente. No necesité buscar un palabra incluso una vez.
Está gratis ahora en "Amazon". Algunos críticos han decho que las traducciones y la gramática no son perfectos, pero no sé de que están diciendo. Si ustedes saben eso, ¡avísame por favor! A propósito, puedan leer también mis otras notas. Gracias.
December 2, 201810 - Hi my friends! I want to learn speaking English without mistakes very much. I want to speak English fluently and correctly. And I know you will help me. It seems to me I have found a good place here and I'm happy.

¿Conocen ustedes la proposición 65 de California? Es una ley de los derechos del consumidores que obliga las tiendas que marcar todos los bienes que son agentes cancerígeno. Comprenden como estaba sorprendido cuando veía una marca de proposición 65 en el caja del cocoa el vez pasado que hacía de compras.
Resulta que los productos de cocoa contienen ambos el plomo y el cadmio. Ya que siempre han contenido estos en la manera natural, no se los necesitan marcar con proposición 65. Pero ahora sé y también ustedes que demasiado chocolate puede ser peligroso.
