    Let's suggest 110- Taking it easy 56
    Message de here4u posté le 01-06-2026 à 18:14:54 (S | E | F)
    Hello dears,

    Another easy exercice that everyone can do! Let's write together...
    Comme l'Expression libre est la compétence la plus difficile à bien acquérir dans l'apprentissage d'une langue, il nous faut nous y entraîner, même si c'est notre langue maternelle, d'ailleurs...

    Certains m'avaient dit être gênés d'exprimer des idées personnelles ( - ils avaient l'impression - souvent fausse - de les exprimer maladroitement ). Dautre part, vous savez que je ne vous demande pas de " raconter votre vie " si vous ne le désirez pas... Je souhaite juste vous voir vous exprimer sur tout sujet aussi " librement " que possible.
    De plus, je pense que vous aurez maintenant compris que pour moi, toute expression, même maladroite, est intéressante et a de la valeur. Elle nous stimule tous à " trouver mieux " !

    Voici vos sujets "de réflexion"!

    1) Do you procrastinate?

    2) Should voting be made compulsory (from 18)?

    3) Asking for help is being strong!


    choisissez 1 ou 2 sujet(s) au choix en mp en notant bien les références - et développez celui (ceux) que vous voulez, jusqu'à atteindre en tout un maximum d'environ 150 mots.

    Envoyez-moi vos réponses en mp et je publierai une première série que vous 'corrigerez' (en bleu d'abord pendant deux jours, sans donner 'votre solution') puis en vert. Une fois le premier texte 'corrigé' au mieux, je publierai ensuite la deuxième série... (sans changements donc !) Vous gagnez de la liberté (celle de ne pas parler de plusieurs sujets, ceux qui ne vous " inspirent pas "... Vous écrivez la longueur que vous voulez, vous pouvez choisir d'inventer, de plaisanter, ou de répondre avec sérieux... Nous vous suivrons !

    Cet exercice sera pour vous un ou en fonction de la qualité de vos écrits et des difficultés (surmontées) dans la prestation...

    Cet exercice sera corrigé le samedi 13 juin 2026 ! Go for it! with THE FORCE.

    Hello dears,

    Voici votre première EXPRESSION à corriger. Il y en a déjà un autre...

    ANSWER A) TOPIC 3: ASKING FOR HELP IS BEING STRONG : please, indicate possible mistakes and underline what looks clumsy to you;


    We can need help for a large amount of reasons, and in different situations, for example: learning new skills, being in danger or having any difficulties, knowing information etc... Asking for help is being strong, because we have to dare to do, we have to put blood, sweat, tears to ask the person who can do it for us, look for a trustworthy person who will remain discreet if it will be necessary. Asking for help is also to have the courage to overcome a feeling of inferiority because we feel foolish, useless and unable to get out of trouble alone. It's about being able to accept our weaknesses and become aware of our boundaries .
    Asking for help, also means learning to be grateful, humble, and appreciating our luck to have been able to get a handle on things.
    Not being afraid to ask for help makes us even stronger.
    In my opinion, accepting some help from someone is to have a winning temperament, giving ourself the means to succeed in achieving our goals.

    for your help.

    Here is ANSWER B: Topic 1: Do you procrastinate?please indicate possible mistakes and underline what is clumsy to you.


    When I was younger, still working and busy with children, it was definitely impossible for me to procrastinate, even if I had wanted to: I was always compelled to rush around, and it was as if delaying things meant being overwhelmed with all that remained to do. Therefore, since I have retired, I have never denied myself the right to procrastinate! In my opinion, postponing things over and over is a privilege that you can enjoy only when you have time... I relish this feeling that you don't need to do things necessarily today, or even tomorrow... 'Things to do' have become sparser, and the sparser they become, the more time you have to spend on what is left.. Of course you have to deal with delays carefully, for some of them are strict deadlines (but, actually, very few of them), and this is where procrastination takes on its artistic dimension...

    Thanks for your help!

    We can need help for a large amount of reasons, and in different situations, for example: learning new skills, being in danger or having any difficulties, (or in order to know obtain /to find out information etc ("know information" seems a bit clumsy here) ... Asking for help is being strong, because we have to (dare to do it/act, we have to put blood, sweat no comma, and tears (un peu fort)/ to work hard/give ourselves* a hard time to ask the ( competent person who will remain discreet if it is (no future after "if") necessary. Asking for help ( requires the courage to overcome a feeling of inferiority because we feel foolish, useless and unable to get out of trouble alone. It's about being able to accept our weaknesses and become aware of our (limits. (not sure whether "boundaries" fits in this context )
    Asking for help no comma also means learning to be grateful, humble, and appreciating our luck/considering ourselves lucky to have been able to get a handle on things.
    Not being afraid to ask for help makes us even stronger.
    In my opinion, accepting ( to be helped (by someone) can be omitted is to have a winning temperament, giving ourselves the means to succeed in achieving our goals.**

    * "Ourself" is used only by people who speak of themselves in the first person plural.
    ** As this is an impersonal sentence, "giving oneself ... achieving one's goals" might be better)
