Our School: My classroom is
never boring. Teachers explain the
lessons to the students and write on
the board, but they erase quickly.
When we work in groups they sit at their desks. Students pay attention and take notes in their notebooks. They keep pens and pencils on their desks. Students are usually intelligent and energetic. They aren’t dumb, but sometimes they don’t study
because they are lazy or the books are boring. After class, students play in our big and beautiful
playground. One day we found a dog
and named it spot. Now it is the school pet, it is ugly but it runs fast. We play
football a lot. Some children are
slow, and some are fast, but all
children have a good time.
NEW GLOSSARY:
The Sound Of Silence
Simon & Garfunkel
Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains within the sound of silence
In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed
By the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence
And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs
That voices never share
And no one dare
Disturb the sound of silence
"Fools" said I, "you do not know
Silence like a cancer grows
Hear my words that I might teach you
Take my arms that I might reach to you"
But my words like silent raindrops fell
And echoed in the wells of silence
And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon God they made
And the sign flashed out it's warning
And the words that it was forming
And the sign said
"The words of the prophets
Are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls"
And whispered in the sound of silence
“IF”…
IF you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:
If you can dream - and not make dreams your master;
If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools:
If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breathe a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: 'Hold on!'
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
' Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch,
if neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!
....................................
“Si”...
Si puedes mantener en su lugar tu cabeza cuando todos
Han perdido la suya y te culpan de ello.
Si crees en ti mismo cuando todo el mundo duda de ti,
Pero también dejas lugar a sus dudas.
Si puedes esperar y no cansarte de la espera;
O si, siendo engañado, no respondes con engaños,
O si, siendo odiado, no te domina el odio
Y aún así no pareces demasiado bueno o demasiado
Si puedes soñar y no hacer de los sueños tu amo;
Si puedes pensar y no hacer de tus pensamientos tu
Si puedes conocer al triunfo y la derrota,
Y tratar de la misma manera a esos dos impostores.
Si puedes soportar oír toda la verdad que has dicho,
Tergiversada por malhechores para engañar a los
O ver cómo se rompe todo lo que has creado en tu
Y agacharte para reconstruirlo con herramientas
Si puedes amontonar todo lo que has ganado
Y arriesgarlo todo a un sólo lanzamiento ;
Y perderlo, y empezar de nuevo desde el principio
Y no decir ni una palabra sobre tu pérdida.
Si puedes forzar tu corazón y tus nervios y tus
Para seguir adelante mucho después de haberlos
Y resistir cuando no haya nada en ti
Salvo la voluntad que te dice: "resiste!"
Si puedes hablar a las masas y conservar tu virtud
O caminar junto a reyes, y no distanciarte de los
Si ni amigos ni enemigos pueden herirte.
Si todos cuentan contigo, pero ninguno demasiado.
Si puedes llenar el inexorable minuto,
Con sesenta segundos que valieron la pena recorrer...
Tuya es la tierra y todo lo que hay en ella,
Y lo que es más: serás un hombre, hijo mío.
