First free post term 2-2010

Dear all,


Welcome to the Intermediate English course. This term we have a mixture of students again, which makes the learning experience more interesting. In terms of writing, you´ll have to write 8 posts in total, 3 in class and 5 at home. Some of them will be free posts, some of the topics and genres will be given to you (summaries, essays, etc.).

This time you should write about the book or movie you´ve liked the most. You have to say why you like it so much, when you read it/watched it, who recommended it to you, what aspects you found interesting, etc.

Wordcount: maximum 250 words.
Deadline: Thursday 26 before class.

Example:

My favourite book ever...

My favourite book ever is one by Paul Auster called the "The book of Illusions". It is a story about a man whose life revolves around the film making industry, but one day he vanishes....Nobody can find him. But I won´t tell you the story so that you read the book. I think the book was a birthday present. I had read another book by the same author before, and had liked it very much too. I like this book because from the beginning it invites you to an imaginary world where reality and fantasy get mixed up. It is full of unexpected events and the characters are very powerful and unique. I strongly recommend it to you. etc. etc.

Good luck!!
Claudia
