!Mira que luna! Look at that moon! Resources for learning English
Fernando Olivera: El rapto.- TEXT FROM THE NOVEL The goldfinch by Donna Tartt (...) One night we were in San Antonio, and I was having a bit of a melt-down, wanting my own room, you know, my dog, my own bed, and Daddy lifted me up on the fairgrounds and told me to look at the moon. When "you feel homesick", he said, just look up. Because the moon is the same wherever you go". So after he died, and I had to go to Aunt Bess -I mean, even now, in the city, when I see a full moon, it's like he's telling me not to look back or feel sad about things, that home is wherever I am. She kissed me on the nose. Or where you are, puppy. The center of my earth is you". The goldfinch Donna Tartt 4441 English edition

Scientists at Northumbria University say they have carried out the first rigorous scientific analysis of dance moves that make men attractive to women.
Writing in the Royal Society Journal, Biology Letters, the researchers believe that movements associated with good dancing are also indicative of good health and reproductive potential.
Evolutionary psychologist Dr Nick Neave asked young men, who were not professional dancers, to dance in a laboratory to a very basic drum rhythm and filmed their movements with 12 cameras.
The dancing was then converted into computer generated cartoons - which women rated on a scale of 1 to 7.
Dr Neave explains the process and what makes a good dancer - or a bad one.
