4/30 Ma scolarité
J'ai fait tous mes études à Hong Kong, l'école primaire, le collège, le lycée et l'université, quoi qui l'en soit. À 6 ans, je suis entrée à l'école primaire qui n'était pas très prestigieuse mais là j'apprenais à lire, écrire, faire des divisions. Et c'était là que j'ai développé mon confiance parce que j'ai pu avoir de bonnes notes facilement quand j'étais entourée par des élèves pas très performants.
Après l'école primaire, direction "le collège et le lycée". Ici, on fait normalement 6 ans d'école sécondaire qui est l'école où on va de 11-17 ans, équivalant de collège et de lycée en France. Je passais six bonnes années là-bas. À partir de ce moment-là, mes camarades vienaient des familles de la classe moyenne. Je suis entrée dans un monde complètement different de ce qui était à l'école primaire. Non seulement elles ayaient de bonnes notes, elles étaient aussi très compétantes. La concurrence y était forte, soit l'aspect scolarie, soit des autres aspects comme la musicale, le sport... etc. Malgré ça, on se gardait une relation amicale. J'ai rencontré beaucoup de bonnes amis qui me supportent et de professeurs très genials qui sont encore des mentors de ma vie. Le temps que j'y passais est surement un des moments inoubliables.

Las clases virtuales
Hoy día, las clases virtuales forman un gran parte de nuestra vida diaria a raíz de la pandemia. Esto ha cambiado drásticamente el proceso de aprendizaje y ha sido muy difícil para muchos estudiantes adaptarse a esta nueva manera de aprender. Para muchos estudiantes, ir a la escuela le permitía escaparse de las adversidades en casa, sin embargo, por culpa de la pandemia ya no tienen esta opción. Ya que es complicado enseñar ciertas lecciones en línea, los estudiantes pueden afrontar problemas para entender la información lo que repercute en su rendimiento escolar.
No obstante, hay algunas ventajas ya que no es menester despertarse muy temprano para ir a la escuela y es posible trabajar en la comodidad del hogar.

My Musical Instrument
I practiced a musical instrument day by day.
It is the oboe which is a kind of wind instrument.
Unlikely other instrument, oboe uses double reeds to make its characteristic sound.
I bought it 10 years ago when I got a first bonus
Since my company has an orchestra practice room, I used to go there and played it.
Because of Covid-19, the room is closed and no one can practice.
I hope this pandemic will come to and end soon.

¿Qué hace el arte?
Primero, el arte nos ofrece una idea de cómo otras personas viven el mundo. Nunca podremos saber esto de manera directa, pero el arte brinda la oportunidad de explorar otros puntos de vista y por tanto ayuda a desarrollar un sentido de empatía.
Del mismo modo, el arte refleja su tiempo. Las esperanzas y ansiedades de una época inevitablemente aparecen en el arte, lo que ilustra la conciencia colectiva de un grupo o de una nación. Mirando el arte de la primera mitad del siglo XX, se pueden ver los temores sobre la modernidad, el impacto devastador de las Guerras Mundiales y las influencias de experimentos intelectuales tal como el surrealismo y el dadaísmo. El arte es una reflexión social, una herramienta indispensable para entender la historia de la humanidad (y su futura).
Finalmente, el arte puede jugar con diferentes discursos, combinando, por ejemplo, la ciencia y la imaginación o incluso la magia. Por consiguiente, el arte es a la vez un producto y una fuente de creatividad.

A Short Trip
At dusk, it wasn't very hot. So I decided to go for a ride. I wanted to go to visit two aunts who live nearby. I visited them in April. It cost me half an hour one way.
The major road is rebuilding. So it is very unconvinient. When I was riding, a car passed by, but it didn't slow down. I had to ride towards the roadbed which is made of earth. And the roadbed is about 5 cms lower than the road. So I dumped for a while. I hate the rude driver.
When I arrived, one aunt wasn't at home. The other just finished picking longan. I ate a lot of logan and wampee. We chat a lot. And then I had lunch with them. Aunt invited me for another visit soon, and she will cook eggs for me because she knows I like eggs. When I leave, she asked me to take some eggs which she just picked from the farm. But the road is dumpy, the eggs will be broken. So I refused. But I took the longan and wampee away.
On my way back, I chose a country road. It is longer than the major one, but there are fewer cars. The sun has gone down, the cloud was pink. There are hill far away, they are so green. The breeze was blowing. And birds were flying. I felt peace and very happy that I made a right decision to go for the trip.
I love the nature, it can always make me feel peace inside. And I need to go out more to have a good mood.

Något som har gått bra i min språkinlärning
Ett av de vanligaste tips som man får om man lär sig ett språk är att läsa barnböcker. "De är ju enkla!". Jag håller inte med. Jag tror att just barnböcker har ovanliga ord som är inte så viktigt att lära sig i början (ord som beskriver djurens ljud, till exempel). Förutom det, barnböcker är skittråkiga. Storyn griper inte, romanfigurerna saknar karaktär, det är bara löjligt. Och det är ju svårare att lära sig om man har inte kul, tappar intresse, är uttråkad, och så vidare.
Därför var det så givande för mig att få uppmaning från min lärare för att prova på böcker för vuxna. Skönlitteratur var för svårt, men det gick bra med faktaböcker i ämnena som jag redan visste lite om. Biblioteket blev mitt nya hem och läsförståelse förbättrades snabbt eftersom jag var så peppad att lära mig nya saker och svenska samtidigt. Det kändes inte ens som pluggande, det kändes bara roligt. Att ha det roligt medan man lär sig är det bästa tips, tror jag!

나만의 시간
주말이나 또 다른 나와 남편 둘다 쉬는 날이 오면 사람들이 우리가 그 시간을 무조건 함께 한다고 생각한다. 예를 들어서, 남편의 친구들이 PC방에 가서 게임을 하고 싶을 때 남편이 같이 가자고 하면 친구들이 다 "아내와 함께 하루를 보내는 건 아니냐?"고 묻는다. 그러나 서로를 아무리 많이 사랑해도 쉬는 시간을 다 함께 보내지 못한다. 누구나 나만의 시간이 필요할 때다 있다.
오늘은 쉬는 날이었다. 아침에 일어나서 공부를 좀 한 다음에 게임을 하였다. 그리고 점심 시간쯤 남편하고 점심을 같이 먹었다. 그런데 그 다음에 남편이 오랜만에 시골에 있는 외할아버지의 무덤을 보러 가고 싶어서 차를 몰고 나 없이 떠났다. 그래서 나는 오늘을 내가 원하는대로 보낼 수 있었다. 책도 읽고 사람이 거의 없는 카페도 가고 빨래도 하고... 남편을 사랑하지만 따로 하는 시간도 가끔씩 필요하다!

My Glasses Has Broken
My pair of glasses broke yesterday. When I tried to wear it, its right temple suddenly snapped. It was the first pair of glasses I bought and I had used it for four years. The temple was made of resin, so the reason may be the deterioration of resin as time passed. Fortunately, I previously bought another pair of glasses for backup, and I'm using it now.

Discussion
Michael: I think English is easy to learn.
Alice: I don’t really think you’re right. Indeed, I think English is a very difficult language to learn. It’s true that grammar is easy if we compare English with other languages like Spanish or French, but other aspects are very complicated. For example, the pronunciation. In Spanish you pronounce the words like you write them. However, in English each word has its own pronunciation without any rules.
Agatha: I couldn’t agree more with you Alice. Other aspect I’d like to highlight is that to achieve an intermediate level of English is quite easy if you study a couple of hours every day. When you start to study English, you feel you are progressing and this is very motivating. But when you have an intermediate level and you want to achieve an advanced level, the situation is different. You don’t progress so quickly and the frustration appears more frequently and if you want to improve your level you have to practice a lot of hours.
David: Agatha, that’s just what I think, too. When you want to achieve an advanced level of English you have to think in this language almost all day: from you get up in the morning to you go to sleep in the night. The easiest way to do this is travelling to a country with English speakers but if you can’t, the only way you can improve your level is practicing the listening, the writing, the speaking and the reading every day. For example, you can read books, speak with native English speakers, watch films and series without subtitles, study a good English book of an advanced level, write compositions in English, or even do an English course of a subject that you like. For example, I’m studying a Coaching course in English. Namely, do a lot of activities in English.
Agatha: Absolutely! It’s very important to be immerse yourself in English language if you want to achieve an advanced level and this is not easy. So, in my view, English isn’t easy to learn.

Dia nove de julho
Depois, nós visitamos o Parque Nacional de Yosemite e o San Francisco.
Fomos embora lugares de autocarro.
Eu lembro a distância é bastante longa.
Do Yosemite, nós lemos da castata grande.
O tempo durante estava cheio de sol.
O paisagem aqui fui lindo.
Do San Francisco, está da cidade bonita.
Ficou muitos jardims pequenos com as flores coloridas e casas bonitas.
Estivemos em um barco e lemos a Ponte Golden Gate.
É uma ponte cheia de vermelha.
Achei o tempo do San Francisco é mais frio do que Los Angeles.

CIA och droghandeln
Om polisen fångade två olika personer innan 2010 och upptäckte att en hade crackkokain och den andra pulveriserad kokain (som är vanligare i rika kretsar), skulle den första mannen bestraffas hundra gånger hårdare än den andra enligt 100:1 regeln. Även om både crack och pulver är två typer av samma drog och crack inte är särskilt farligare än pulver slog lagen fast att så här skulle männen bestraffas. Den här regeln ledde till stor ojämlikhet i hur lagen hanterade drogmissbrukare, och eftersom crack var en billig alternativ till den mer raffinerade pulvern hamnade flera svarta amerikaner i fängelse för mycket längre än deras rika, vita grannar.
Men det som inte har berättats ofta är hur den amerikanska underrättelsetjänsten (CIA) förvärrade den här epidemin genom att föra crack från allierade i centrala och södra amerika till storstäder som LA och San Francisco. Det må låta som en konspirationsteori, men detta agerandet från CIA är inte något nytt som bara började i slutet av det Kalla Kriget. Under 50-talet stödde CIA den korsikanska maffian i Marseille, som producerade heroin, för att motverka makten av franska kommunister och fackförbund i regionen. Heroin som skapades här bestod av en stor majoritet av det som användes i USA under den tiden. Air America, flygbolaget som ägdes av CIA, förde opium från kinesiska nationalister till både Vietnam och Laos för att raffineras och föras vidare världen runt. Är det då förvånande att CIA stödde nicaraguanska antikommunister med vinster från crack odling för att bekämpa sandinisterna? Jag tror inte det.

playing develop stronger relationships
Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Playing games together is a good way to establish closer relationships. Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.
Spending time with other bodies can generate a positive impact on relationships. Take part in plays motivates all team members to do the best. All participants share their thoughts and this reinforces the relationship between each other. From my perspective, I agree with this statement. I think getting a part in acts establishes relationships between each person because it is a perfect condition to meet someone and helps to build up the determination.
First, Interacting with other is something we do daily. Activities help to cultivate relationships between humans. Some bodies are introverted as me, it is challenging to talk with strangers. Doing some acts relate with others. For instance, at highschool I joined the volleyball team. It encourages me to raise my courage and talk with all the squad. Moreover, I understood they are my colleagues even if we lost the game. Consequently, creating wonderful memories develops a strong friendship that continues until now. Therefore, I suggest that being part of an activity benefit a relationship.
Second, playing with people shows their abilities and defects. This makes each member accept the condition they are. Sharing all this moment jointly, boost up the determination in all the crew. For example, I join the volleyball club at my first job. At the beginning, it was complex for me to improve my experiences, so I trained more hour per week. Some friends train me, therefore, I learned more techniques and enhance my certainty. As a result, I entrust in all my partners. Thus, I advise that taking part in some plays start the bravery and maintain the relationship.
In essence, I strongly agree with going part in games serves to boost up relationships. This is because of two reasons: one is an exceptional scene to reinforce any relationship and other is build up the care.

將來有空時，我想去維也納一遊。我是在幾年前在網上看到文章後，對這個城市開始感到興趣。當時我還是大學生，沒有很多錢，不能想去就去。雖然我沒有錢，但還能上網查資料。除了在網上找見聞，還從圖書館裏借了幾本旅遊指南來看。我覺得維也納這個城市挺適合我。它是一個藝術都市，有幾位我喜歡的畫家都是來自哪裏。對於超愛逛博物館的我來說，真是願望成真啊！除了藝術，維也納的咖啡館也很有名，做的糕點挺出色。有一種蛋糕，叫薩赫蛋糕，裏面有果醬與幾層巧克力，聽說非常好吃。我本來想在去年十二月時去維也納的，可是疫情爆發後，甚麼地方也去不了。希望一兩年後，世界各地情況會有改善，我終於可以去哪逛一逛。

Смол-тоук
Нескольких недель назад я услышал в подкасте, что в некоторых больших городах в России присутствует феномена "смол-тоука". В Америке этот феномен иногда меня мешает, беспокоит. Я считал что в России и русскоязычных странах я от него буду свободен. Но теперь кажется что, то феномена покорит весь мир. Не знаю если это хорошо или нет, но мы ничего не можем делать об этом. Как ваши мнения о "смол-тоук"? Вы за или против?
Спасибо за внимание и исправления)

Comment avoir des bonnes relations avec vos collègues ?
Aujourd'hui, je vais répondre à cette question : comment avoir des bonnes relations avec vos collègues ? Je pense écrire ma réponse sur deux points : travail et hors de travail.
Au niveau de travail, il faut qu'on soit coopératif. C'est-à-dire, on doit écouter des opinions des autres, mais également doit exprimer nos opinions pour servir à l'équipe. Afin d'avoir son utilité, on fait mieux d'avoir plein de connaissances en étudiant davantage et obtenant des expériences que les autres ne semblent pas d'avoir acquis. Ces efforts augmentent nos valeurs dans l'équipe et ainsi les relations se renforcent.
Côté hors de travail, on a besoin de communiquer. Pour l'atteindre, tout d'abord, on devrait saluer. C'est vraiment important, car ça montre que je le reconnais et je suis prête à avoir des conversations avec cette personne. Ça facilite la communication dans le futur et nourrit la confiance entre des personnes. Même pendant la petite pause, on peut demander des nouvelles de cette personne devant la machine à café pour mieux se connaitre. Cette petite chose s'entasse un par un, et crée l'ambiance dans laquelle on peut avoir recours l'un à l'autre quand des problèmes se produisent.
Cela dit, il faut savoir que chacun a la distance qu'il veut tenir avec les autres, et on ne devrait pas la franchir brusquement. On doit respecter les vies privées des autres : s'approcher trop peut empêcher d'inspirer confiance.
