    A free man/Correction
    Message de sablune posté le 19-04-2011 à 17:13:54 (S | E | F)
    Hello,

    Could anybody correct my topic, please?
    I have many difficulties, and it is very important for me. It's about a novel I have read.
    Thank you for your help.

    According to me, in the end of the story Max is a free man. I’m conscious that isn’t the moral thing to say, but I’m a realistic girl.

    First of all, Max has broken the chain of the poverty. He was born in an extreme poverty, with no hope to keep a better future. His situation became easier when he became driver for a rich family, that’s true, but he continued to work like a sidekick. After he committed the murder of his boss, for stole money, he won the opportunity to make is owns choices. Why? Because after that he has a lot of money. He started a new life, bought a company and in the end he makes the good life.

    Secondly, he has no real remorses. His entire family has probably died, killed for a question of vengeance. He thinks about that sometimes, when his son look him with accusing eyes, but that’s it. A man with a clear conscience is a free person.
    However, maybe one day, good luck come crashing down to his head. But until this moment, Max will stay free.

    Bonsoir,

    First of all, Max has broken the chain of the poverty. He was born in an extreme poverty, with no hope to keep/autre verbe comme avoir a better future. His situation became/to be is better and also avoid the repetition easier/better (I suggest) when he became driver for a rich family, that’s true, but he continued to work like a sidekick. After he committed the murder of his boss ( you can simply say He murdered...), for stole money, he won/pas de bon verbe the opportunity to make is owns choices. Why? Because after that he has/présent perfect a lot of money. He started a new life, bought a company and in the end he makes the good life.

    Secondly, he has no real remorses. His entire family has probably died, ...killed for a question of vengeance (rephrase si possible). He thinks about that sometimes, when his son look/accorder avec sujet + prép. him with accusing eyes, but that’s it. A man with a clear conscience is a free person.
    However, maybe one day, good luck come/accorder crashing down to his head. But until this moment/now?, Max (will) stay/accorder free.

    Bonne chance!

    Hello,

    Take another look at your articles-poverty does not need an article, but driver is better with an article.
    I would also suggest changing the article in 'the good life.'
    Finally, consider another preposition in this phrase...'to his head.'
