!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

KEEPING YOUR ENGLISH ALIVE


It snowed yesterday. Today the snow has partially melted and turned to slush. You just walked to your child's daycare center, and your feet got wet from some water on the street. You're talking with one of the other mothers at the daycare and tell her:
I stepped in a big puddle on the way over here, and now my feet are soaking wet.
