    Mi vida (8) ¡Voy en España la semaña proxima! Puedo hablar español realemente, en el restaurante, en el muséo, en las calles... Créo que tengo un mejor nivel en español ahora. Hace dos o tres años, no podía hablar con el propietario del piso donde hemos pasado cinco días, mientras que mi marido podía hablar naturalemente... Estaba celosa... Vamos a pasar seis días, bastante tiempo para hablar, comer, ver la arquitectura de la ciudad (Grenada y Sevilla). Tengo una pregunta: ¿Hay unas comidas típicas? Hay unas actividads típicas ?

    C2 Cambridge Official Examination Essay

    Hello, everyone! I was practicing writing an essay for C2 official Cambridge examination and I was wondering if you could give me your opinion. In the essay part you are supposed to read two texts and summarize both giving your opinion. I tried pasting both but they had too many characters so I'm going to put a link here so you can read them beforehand:

    If you could correct my essay it would mean a lot! Let me know if there is something I should improve. Thank you for your time!

    MY ESSAY
    The food industry in the UK

    Throughout history, people’s relationship with food has been subject to changes mostly due to the internationalization of their society. This essay deals with the question of the food industry in the UK, assessing and summarizing the ideas expressed in the texts above.

    The first text addresses the issue of the evolution of the culinary field. It is stated that the sector has now diversified, offering a wide range of options regarding accessibility to types of worldwide foods and ingredients. Nevertheless, the British population seem to prefer buying pre-made meals to making them themselves. Personally, I believe it’s positive that there are more possibilities to learn about new cultures and kinds of cuisine. However, it’s a shame that home-made cooking is being neglected in favour of buying foods already prepared.

    The second text discusses more in depth the last point mentioned in the first text: pre-cooked foods. The author highlights that its proliferation in the last years is probably due to the great variety, along with the low prices and the convenience of these products. Despite how positive it may seem, pre-cooked mea

    Good work! Personally I would cut some sentences shorter. It's important to be clear and straight to the point in an essay. Complex structures should be used to express nuances in meanings.

    Mi vida 7 Por qué quierres aprender una idioma ? Yo hablo inglés con mis estudiantes y mis colegas. Hablo francés en el trabajo y tambiên con mis amigos y mi familia. Hablo vietnamita con mis amigos y mi familia. Hago verdaderos motivos por estas idiomas. Por qué quierro aprender español ? No sé... No conozco la cultura española. No hago amigos españoles. Hago una amiga chilena, pero hablamos en francés. Me gusta los sonidos en español, algunas películas en español. Son verdaderos motivos por aprender español ? Quando aprendo español, veo las dificultades que pueden tener mis alumnos. Es un verdadero motivo.

    Mi vida (6) Paris Trabajo mucho estas días. Además hay una huelga desde hay un mes, no puedo ir à mi universidad y debo hacer todo por e-mail. Todo el mundo debe caminar para ir al trabajo, 5 km, 10 km... todas las días. Es dificil, pero es muy bueno para la salud. A las ocho de la mañana, las calles están llenas de gentes que caminan. En el claroscuro de las primeras horas de la mañana, estes caminantes me recuerdan a los muertos vivientes. No hablan nada. Sólo caminan, caminan, caminan...

    Laughter

    I think we have two different kinds of laughing; the good one and the bad one.
    The bad one comes with stress.
    I want to talk about the good one. This kind of laughter depends on our culture, age, situation, etc.
    Maybe what was funny thirty years ago doesn't make you laugh today!
    Laughing itself is a very complicated thing but we can use it to develop our relations in the society.
    It's interesting that we're not the only creatures capable of laughing. Scientists say that chimpanzees and rats can laugh! Maybe they do this to connect to each other .
    Also laughing can be helpful for our health! It can strengthen our immune system and blood vessels or reduce our pains.
    So laughing is a good medicine! “Laughology” the science of laughing can help us care for patients!

    Mi vida 5 Paris es una ciudad muy animada. Hay mucha gente en la calle, en el bar, en el restaurante. Hay mucha gente fuera a todas las horas de la día. Hay mucha gente en el metro. Pero el domingo no hay nadie. Está muy tranquila en la calle. Algunas familias caminan juntas, el padre, la madre, el chico o la chica. En el parque hay muchísimas familias con unos chicos pequeños y grandes. Desgraciadamente hace frío y gris en este momento. No es agradable fuera. Pero hay muchos conciertos, museos, teatros, cines, bibliotecas... en todos barrios de la ciudad. No podemos aburrirnos a Paris.

    Can you learn with TV series?
    That's something I've heard often, and experienced myself.

    I know people who have learnt English with sit-coms, "Friends", "Seinfeld", "Big Bang Theory"..., some with "Desperate Housewives", "Sex and the City"... I don't know if anyone learns with "Mad Men", "The Wire", "Breaking Bad", "The Sopranos"...?

    Personally I learnt a lot of French slangs watching "The Wire" with French subtitles. I learnt a lot of technological terms watching "Black Mirror". I have never really stopped to think what use is it to learn words that I don't know when I'm going to use myself. I mean, when I was watching "The Wire" six years ago, I could speak French but I wouldn't imagine myself saying "thune" for "argent" (money in French)... Well, now I can.

    I often reccommend easy-to-watch series that I really enjoy, like "Malcom in the Middle". But I don't know if TV series can be pleasurable for everyone, and if everyone can be eager to discover without knowing what exactly is the point.

    Mi vida (4) Estoy estudiando el presente continuo. Las formas verbals son muy difícils. "Leír" se convierte en "leyendo". "Dormir" se convierte en "durmiendo"... Son más difícils que las formas verbals en inglés o en francés. Me imagino un niño pequeño. Repito todo lo que escucho... y recuerdo todo. Estoy fascinada con nuevas perspectivas y nuevas formas de expresar mis ideas y mis sentimientos. Estoy fácilmente contenta como un niño que sabe decir "pantalones" por primera vez. Necesito mantenerme un niño para aprender.
