Message de here4u posté le 14-06-2024 à 10:35:13 (S | E | F)
Hello dears,

This is an easy exercise that everyone can do.

Toujours en pause sur l’ exercice d’EXPRESSION Let's Suggest tel qu’il était…
C'est à nouveau la " nouvelle formule ", surtout que les vacances reviennent doucement... JE SAIS, JE CROIS que vous pouvez être beaucoup plus nombreux à essayer d'aider tout le monde par vos travaux et vos corrections.

Certains m’ont dit être gênés d’exprimer des idées personnelles (surtout qu’ils avaient l’impression – souvent fausse – de les exprimer maladroitement.) Cependant, 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 les questions auxquelles vous devrez répondre en utilisant une expression de 'giving your opinion'.

1. 'Effortless is a myth'(R. Federer)

2. Could you ever forgive a betrayal?

3. Working isn’t only a matter of earning money…

4. All politicians are exasperating!

5. «Don’t sell your chickens before they’re hatched!»

Vous pouvez choisir 1 ou 2 questions au choix – en notant bien les références - et développer celle(s) que vous voulez jusqu’à atteindre en tout un maximum d’environ 150 mots.

Envoyez-moi vos réponses en mp et je publierai une série que vous 'corrigerez' (en bleu d’abord pendant deux jours) puis en vert… et je publierai ensuite la deuxième série... (sans changements donc ! ) Vous gagnez de la liberté (celle de ne pas parler d'un ou 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 mardi 25 juin 2024 ! Go for it! with THE FORCE.

Hello dears,

Here is our first answer! to this courageous worker!

Answer A: Topic3: Working is not only a matter of earning money. Please, indicate possible mistakes and underline what you think is clumsy.
In reference to a phrase by Voltaire :
"Work removes three great evils from us: boredom, vice and want." work is essential to man's existence.
First of all, human beings have vital needs: They have to work to provide food, shelter and clothing.
Secondly, work broadens the spirit and allows a social life.
In add, even boring, repetitive work is always rewarding, you learn a skill, you're part of a chain, you belong to a group...
Work takes you out of isolation, and even if you work alone in your own home, you're obliged to have human contact with suppliers and buyers.
As often idleness, poverty lead to vice; by providing an occupation and money, work keeps us away from vice and lack.
Finally, I AM ABSOLUTELY CONVINCED THAT even voluntary, work gives satisfaction, allows personal fulfilment and makes you feel proud of yourself by making you feel useful. About 150 words

for your help!

In reference to a ~~phrase~~ sentence by Voltaire :
"Work removes three great evils from us: boredom, vice and want." Work is essential to man's existence.
First of all, human beings have vital needs: They have to work to provide themselves with food, shelter and clothing.
Secondly, work broadens ~~the spirit~~ your perspective (or opens your mind) and allows a social life.
In addition , even boring, repetitive work is always rewarding, you learn a skill, you're part of a chain, you belong to a group...
Work takes you out of isolation, and even if you work alone in your own home, you're obliged to have human contact with suppliers and buyers.
As often idleness, poverty leads to vice; by providing an occupation and money, work keeps us away from vice and lack want (same word as at the beginning).
Finally, I AM ABSOLUTELY CONVINCED THAT even (I don't understand this "even" voluntary, work gives satisfaction, allows personal fulfilment and makes you feel proud of yourself ~~by making~~ (repetition "makes/making")/because you feel useful. About 150 words

Je pense qu’à la fin, ‘even voluntary work’ fait allusion au bénévolat…. ( c’est mon interprétation…)

Hello here4u

J'ai bien compris que l'on parle de bénévolat. Ce qui ne gêne un peu, c'est que la phrase avec "even" semble sous-entendre qu'on ne s'attend pas à ce qu'un tel travail apporte des satisfactions, ce que je trouve surprenant.

Hello dears,

Since everyone could express their satisfaction, here is the second series of ANSWERS!

ANSWERS B : TOPIC 1 please, indicate possible mistakes and underline what you think is clumsy...

« Effortless is a myth » R. FEDERER
I totally agree ! Of course when you start a new activity, you may find it very easy, particularly if you are talented for it ! But when digging further at it, it'll give you a hard time ! FROM WHAT I KNOW, if you want to improve and get really good at something, you cannot avoid effort ; but as effort is rewarding, you'll feel a certain happiness in it ! 71 words

(I know "from what I know" is not really a way of expressing one's opinion, but it came naturally to my mind...

TOPIC 5: « Don't count your chicken before they're hatched »
This proverb is to be understood as a way to slow down someone who is too quick in his projects, hoping to be able to achieve something thanks to something that would have happened before. But AS I SEE IT, the popular wisdom says everything and its opposite, for what about "Fortune favors the bold." ? (Isn'it funny (and handy) to have some various sayings from which to choose the most suitable one, depending on what we want to hear ? 82 words

ANSWER C: topic 4: "All politicians are exasperating!"

Indeed, to my mind, population shares this exasperation.
It is a fear time. People's minds are filled with emotions. Moreover, politicians' speeches gamble on our hope of finding the providential leader as a father or a spiritual saviour. I am struck with the lack of reflexion during the interviews. I despair of watching thorough journalists on mainstream media.
Hence, it seems to people that politicians' disputes are just TV shows remote from reality. I am absolutely convinced that people need to understand the impact of elected representatives' decisions. Laws come from politicians. Laws govern every detail of our lives ranging from the retirement to little things like plastic-free cotton buds for ears. All ministries follow the ministers' orders. They state a lot of decrees in accordance with laws but without the vote of the parliament, like successive reforms of national education. By this way, politicians affect our lives much than people realize.

Number of words?

- comme vous tous, j’ai cherché la traduction exacte de la phrase de Voltaire : Lien internet
Voltaire
The French writer, historian, and philosopher Voltaire said: "Work spares us from three evils: boredom, vice, and need".
- je préfère ‘spare’ épargner à ’remove’ : enlever, qui signifieraient que ‘boredom, vice and need/ want’ sont des ‘maux’ (evils) dont l’homme souffre déjà à l’état naturel et dont le travail va le priver, le libérer…
Une autre version : ‘Our labour preserves us from three great evils -- weariness, vice, and want.’ OK.
Voltaire dit aussi : Work is often the father of pleasure. – ce qui est beaucoup plus positif.
- ‘A part of a chain’ reminded me of ‘a cog in the wheel’… (qui est péjoratif), remplacer ‘part’ qui est neutre, trop neutre par a ‘link’ donne un vrai rôle positif au participant. The following sentence : ‘belong to a group’ emphasised the positive aspect, the feeling of being useful.
- attention à la confusion entre : spirit : Lien internet
et ‘mind’: Lien internet
; différent, l’esprit est aussi ‘wit’: Lien internet

- poverty leads to vice: ??? Which famous writer said that ? Not Dostoevsky who said the opposite. Be careful of these generalisations…(ou donne des citations ou des exemples précis…)
- even (voluntary, ? * work ; A l’Université, mon fils avait un module qui s’appelait ‘volunteerism’: le mot est très employé aux EU et le concept très présent dans le cursus universitaire. Ton ‘even’ est un moyen – maladroit – de dire que ce n’est pas l’argent qui doit motiver le travailleur ;
