Message de here4u posté le 23-12-2022 à 08:23:54 (S | E | F)
Hello, dear workers!

Here is the new topic for you to write about... I hope many will participate enthusiatically... This topic is vital just now...

You mustn't be afraid of making mistakes... We LOVE mistakes, because they give us an opportunity to explain and correct!

Here is today's topic, suggested by a faithful worker on this Forum:

"Yes! There is, and there will always be a Santa Claus!" Here's the proof!... Give examples that make you sure of Santa's existence and presence... (130 to 150 words) (No confession is required... You may create your examples, or dream , to fit your purpose...)


Voici le rappel des modalités de la première partie de l'exercice :
1. Je vous demande une EXPRESSION sur le sujet proposé à m’envoyer en mp dès que possible …
2. Le plus tôt possible, cette première expression sera publiée sur le Forum, et CHACUN sera libre de « corriger » UNE FOIS ( en collant le texte et indiquant les erreurs EN BLEU, et en soulignant ce qui vous semble maladroit et que vous voudriez changer, sans donner la « correction » (forme correcte), à ce moment là, comme il se doit.) Si un autre membre a déjà indiqué des erreurs en bleu, VOUS DEVEZ repartir de cette correction et la confirmer ou la corriger... Un seul devoir à la fois sera publié pour corriger … Vous pourrez ensuite donner vos suggestions de correction (en vert!)

IMPORTANT! Pour me faciliter le transfert de vos travaux sur le site, pourriez vous m'indiquer par un "(" la correction qui s'impose à vous, s'il vous plaît ?
ie. (I'm repeating for years... ou (was not only to want something,... Pourquoi ? Simplement parce que le site ne "garde" pas les indications de couleurs ou de soulignement etc. dès que l'on copie ... Donc, je prends vos travaux, je les corrige avec les codes "bleu" ou "souligné" ou "vert", mais au moment où je vous poste la correction, je perds tout mon travail ... et dois tout refaire mot à mot avec deux fenêtres ou même deux écrans pour un travail fastidieux de copie point par point ... Merci de votre aide !

Les modalités complètes sont accessibles sur le lien suivant :
Lien internet


( Je vous les rappellerai au fur et à mesure de la progression du travail )
Cet exercice sera ... ce que vous en ferez : ou ou Do your best, I trust You!
Correction en ligne le dimanche 8 janvier 2023.
J'attends vos envois en mp et publierai le premier dès que possible.

MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU and with US!



🎅

Hello dears, I hope you're having a 🎅 🎅 🎅 🎄

Here's EXPRESSION N°1: please, help us make it perfect, indicating possible mistakes in blue, and underlining what you think is clumsy!

Of course, there is a Santa Claus, and I even visited his country and his village last year.
Located a few kilometers from Rovaniemi in Finnish Lapland, Santa's park offers a wide range of activities and a real feast for kids'eyes and others.
After a hug with the huskies, we left on a sleigh pulled by reindeers; we weren't cold thanks to Mrs Claus' blankets.
On our way back, elves in green trousers and red jackets served us hot chocolate and buns.There was no time to hang around in the tea-room, as the line to visit the workshops was long. But it was worth waiting, a real anthill: while singing, hundreds of busy elves were preparing orders or making toys.
Finally we ended with the best proof to your question:the photo.
We sat on either side of Santa; I even remember him asking us if we have been nice!
Do you want to see this picture ? 160 words


Thanks for your help! 🎅 🎄 🎅 🎄

Hello dears!

Thanks for your help in EXPRESSION N°1! Maxwell peut préparer ses réponses ... Here's the second one...

EXPRESSION N°2: please, indicate possible mistakes in blue and underline what looks clumsy to you!

Of course Santa Claus exists; Here is may story.
It was when we wanted to move abroad.
At first we entered the foreign country with a tourist visa.
As we intended to stay there definitively, we applied for a long term visa by completing a 36-page form. However, our request was refused, because we hadn't given enough details.
Moreover an immigration lawyer helped us, and we applied again. Nevertheless, the government never had enough documentation to back it of. The lawyer told us:" Never give up."
Until our case gets investigated, we received a bridging visa that allowed us to stay in the country, but not work. Our savings melt away overnight. We have been doing some odd jobs illegally. We were in a preliminary position...
Then on morning, on december 24th, we got our long term visa, before becoming residents.
Who says that Santa Claus doesn't exist? We have to push him a little. 158 MOTS

(1) definitively = de façon certaine, absolue ;

Hello dear!

I hope you could enter 2023 enthusiastically and joyfully! HAVE A HAPPY NEW YEAR! 🎁

EXPRESSION N°3: please, help us make it perfect, indicating possible mistakes in blue, and underlining what you think is clumsy!


How dreary would be the world if there were no Santa Claus! He exists as certainly as love and generosity exist.
Who fills your stockings or brings you gifts under the Christmas tree every year with your name on it?
You can write a letter to Santa Claus to ask him to bring you all the gifts that you wish, provided you've been good all year. You don't even need to stick a stamp on it!
Santa Claus sometimes receives thirty-two thousand letters a day. Can you imagine?

Santa's magic is in every little thing that you wouldn't do except at Christmas. Santa lights the way to those things you've been hoping for. He makes your dreams come true.

If you're still not convinced, I suggest you watch "Miracle on 34th Street", and let yourself be transported by the magic of Christmas.

for your help!

When I was little boy, my big brother and sister spoke about Santa Claus and laughed. I’ve understood that something was strange but beeing the baby of the familly, I also understood that if i don’t tell something and write my letter to Santa, it wants to say that I believe to Santa. To believe to Santa implies to receive some presents and to stay my parents’s darling baby. More later, my parents said that Santa did not really exist and that I was tall and must know it ! What a sad news…
Now, I say to my children that Santa exist and I think it is good for the family. I'm father and I think it's nice to see the smiles on the children's face. 130

How dreary (would be the world *if there were no Santa Claus! He exists as certainly as love and generosity exist.
Who fills your stockings or brings you gifts under the Christmas tree every year with your name on( it?
You can write a letter to Santa Claus to ask him to bring you all the gifts that you wish, provided you've been good all year. You don't even need
to stick a stamp on it!
Santa Claus sometimes receives thirty-two thousand letters a day. Can you imagine?(but this isn’t a proof of his existence! )
Santa's magic is in every little thing that you wouldn't do except at Christmas. Santa lights the way to those things you've been hoping for. He makes
your dreams come true.
If you're still not convinced, I suggest you watch "Miracle on 34th Street", and let yourself be transported by the magic of Christmas.
