!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

I flung (empujé, le arrojé)  (10),   her back, and hastened  (me apresuré)  (11),to interpose the table between us. This proceeding aroused the whole hive: half-a-dozen four-footed fiends  (demonios, malvados) (12),  , of various sizes and ages, issued from hidden dens (guaridas)  (13),   to the common centre. I felt my heels and coat-laps ()  (14),  peculiar subjects of assault; and parrying  (eludiendo, evitando)  (15),  off the larger combatants as effectually (eficientemente)  (16),   as I could with the poker, I was constrained to demand, aloud, assistance from some of the household in re-establishing peace.
