    Message de here4u posté le 09-11-2022 à 23:03:32 (S | E | F)
    Hello, dear workers!

    Here is the new topic for you to write about... I hope many of you will participate freely!

    You shouldn't be afraid of making mistakes... We LOVE mistakes, because they give us an opportunity to explain and correct!

    Here is today's topic:

    "Where would you rather live if you were given the choice?: at the seaside, in the mountains, in the countryside, in a big city? Give your reasons" (between 130 and 150 words) (+ or - 10%!)[I'm not expecting a confession... You may invent whatever you fancy! ] Un tel sujet exige des structures et des "notions" bien particulières ...

    Voici le rappel des modalités de la première partie de l'exercice :
    1. Je vous demande une EXPRESSION sur le sujet proposé à m’envoyer en mp dès que possible …
    2. Le plus tôt possible, cette première expression sera publiée sur le Forum, et CHACUN sera libre de « corriger » UNE FOIS ( en collant le texte et indiquant les erreurs EN BLEU, et en soulignant ce qui vous semble maladroit et que vous voudriez changer, sans donner la « correction » (forme correcte), à ce moment là, comme il se doit.) Un seul devoir à la fois sera publié pour corriger … Vous pourrez ensuite donner vos suggestions de correction (en vert!)

    IMPORTANT! Pour me faciliter le transfert de vos travaux sur le site, pourriez vous m'indiquer par un ( la correction souhaitée, s'il vous plaît ?
    ex: (I'm repeating for years... ou (was not only to want something,... . Pourquoi ? Simplement parce que le site ne "garde" pas les indications de couleurs ou de soulignement etc. dès que l'on copie ... Donc, je prends vos travaux, je les corrige avec les codes bleu ou souligné ou vert, mais au moment où je vous poste la correction, je perds tout mon travail ... et dois tout refaire mot à mot avec deux fenêtres ou même deux écrans pour un travail fastidieux de reprise point par point ... Merci de votre aide !

    Les modalités complètes sont accessibles sur le lien suivant : Lien internet


    ( Je vous les rappellerai au fur et à mesure de la progression du travail )
    Cet exercice sera ... ce que vous en ferez : ou ou Do your best, I trust You!
    Correction en ligne le jeudi 24 novembre 2022.
    J'attends vos envois en mp et publierai le premier dès que possible.
    MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU and with US!

    Hello dears!

    Here is our first expression! a lot for being so fast!

    EXPRESSION N°1: Please, help us, indicating possible mistakes in blue and underlining what you consider is clumsy...

    Were I given the choice, I would definitely live near a big city. Too bad about the great landscapes, the air quality, the weather...
    Spending your holidays at the seaside, in the mountains or in the countryside is a wonderful thing: it gives you unforgettable memories. However, when you need to see a doctor, it is getting more and more difficult to get an appointment nearby in sparsely populated areas. Personally, I would feel vulnerable, helpless, isolated in the mountains or at the seaside during off-season periods.
    Moreover, you are more likely to find a job that matches your aspirations in a big city.
    Admittedly, everything is more expensive in a big city, especially renting or buying a home. That's why I think living in the suburbs is ideal provided the public transportation system is working properly...
    And you can still go on holiday wherever you fancy! (149 words)

    a lot for your help! I give you the FORCE

    Hello!

    No suggestions? no green (allowed for two days)? No Congratulations? Too bad...

    EXPRESSION N°2: Please indicate possible mistakes in blue and underline what looks clumsy to you... Green allowed on 22 Nov.

    The question is . Where would you rather live if you were given the choice?
    Here are my ideas on the subject:
    During my childhood I lived on a farm and I liked that. We had the fresh milk every morning directly from the cow's udder and freshly laid eggs, When you live on a farm, you harvest your own vegetables `and fruits from your garden, it is pleasant.
    However I also need to live not far from a city where there are all the amenities and distractions such as theatre, museum, shopping centre, hospital on site.
    But above all what I need the most, this is to live near water: ocean, seaside, lake, river whatever but be able to swim, bathe,outdoors and of course in a warm and sunny area. 142mots


    for your help!

    (1) comme il s'agit d'un avis personnel, j'ai préféré l'expliciter. En plus, cela permet de bien faire la transition avec le paragraphe suivant où l'auteur parle à la 1ère personne.
    (2) "What I need most" est le sujet de "is". Pas besoin de rajouter autre chose

    I lived in a village a long time and I dreamt to live in a big town because my village was so calm and « dead » . There was just a little school, but no college or lycéé.
    In a village, people know everybody and their stories and people speak a lot, and are jealous often, and wicked. In a town you live freely, without even to know your neigbhours and if they are noisy, you beat the walls or the floor… You have discotheques and cinemas, bowling, and you have a lots of fun with your friends.
    Of course, the sea would be good… So, a city near the sea is ideal. Of course in towns you have less place in your house or flat because the land is very expensive but I like it when even.

    Hello, dear All!

    Certains se sont réveillés un peu tard ... Il nous faut donc faire les deux étapes de la correction de cette expression en même temps (coller deux fois le texte : dans la première copie, les indications seront en bleu et soulignées ... Dans le suivant, vous pourrez proposer vos solutions en vert.

    Thanks for being flexible!

    EXPRESSION N°4: Please indicate possible mistakes in blue and underline what looks clumsy to you...

    If I could choose my place of residence, I would definitely go to the south of France.
    I wouldn't opt for the seaside, too expensive and much too crowded in summer; but rather the back country of Provence, where the light is so beautiful and the climate less humid than that of the Loire valley.
    My choice would be a house in a small town, close to shops and health services, so that we didn't have to take our car. I can already see the central place of the town shaded by fig-trees,I can hear the gentle murmur of the fountain and the exclamations of the players of boules.
    Do you see the colourful market stalls? Can you hear the cicadas singing?
    Does it seem too idyllic or unreal?
    I'm sure that such a place exists, we just need to find it and move! 145words

    very much for your help.

    [It was!]

    Cette correction m'a demandé, là où je suis, avec un Internet assez instable, ... beaucoup de temps et d'énergie ... Il m'est venu une idée ... Dorénavant, pour les "indications", en bleu, il serait intéressant pour tous (et sans doute moins lassant pour moi au moment de la correction finale) de ne pas reprendre une nouvelle copie du texte à chaque fois, mais de repartir, comme certains l'ont déjà fait, de la proposition précédente (en ayant, bien sûr le droit - et même le devoir - de rectifier les erreurs toujours possibles de vos co-workers sous forme de notes. Nous aurions ainsi peut être la possibilité d'avancer plus vite cette phase et de consacrer plus de temps et d'énergie à la partie "trouvailles" ...

    D'autre part, certaines EXPRESSIONS sont très bonnes. Il me semble que lorsque vous vous sentez "à l'aise", vous pourriez, complexifier un peu votre expression (moins de verbes avoir et être, moins de mots de liaison "passe-partout", des temps plus complexes, etc.) Si vous le désirez, (mais uniquement si vous le demandez ... et elles ne seront pas obligatoires à utiliser ...) je peux vous suggérer quelques types de structures à employer en fonction du thème ... A vous de me dire !

    Dans tous les cas, BRAVO à vous à la fois pour vos expressions, souvent très bonnes et pour les corrections, toujours excellentes !
    Sentez-vous libres de travailler plus loin sur un Follow Up Work de votre choix. (mais laissez moi le temps de "boucler" les autres exercices de quinzaine)
    Trop fatiguée pour relire une fois de plus et poster le devoir suivant ... Promis, ce sera fait ... (demain matin, j'espère ! )

    Ta phrase n'a pas de "if clause".... donc, elle ne réclame pas la concordance des temps de cette clause.
