Hi folks,
As promised, I’ll tell you some more positive things than last week. This week I read 4 articles on the 7Speaking website.
Who believes The King is alive? Apparently there are many people who believe this. When I say ‘The King’ I mean Elvis Presley if you haven’t figured that out yet. Famous artists who have died young, always seem to leave some mystery behind. There are always die hard fans that dress up or try to live like their idol. I think everyone is unique and special and you don’t have to pretend you’re someone else. But hey, that’s just my opinion.
My second article was about the Italian railway company who l
aunched a high-speed train on the Rome-Milan line. They cut off one hour of the travelling time and now they can do the track in 3 hours and 30 minutes. We live in a world where time is important and technology will always find ways to save time. This is a good thing but only if we fill in the time we’ve gained with something positive, or something relaxing like spending more time with your family or spending more time on yourself instead of only trying to gain more and more time. Don’t forget to live, because life is going really fast.
This week’s number 3 was a real treat. The Cayman Islands with its coral reefs, frogfish and reggae beats is a beautiful place to spend your holiday. But lately a lot of businessmen found their way to the luxurious resorts. Now there are more people with briefcases and cellphones than there are scuba divers. Like I said earlier, don’t forget to live. Enjoy life!
Last but certainly not least: Prince Harry wants to spend more time helping
children. He founded a charity in Lesotho in the memory of his mother, Princess Diana. Because of his busy army life, he can’t go there as much as he would like to. The charity helps orphans and abused children and wants to give them a better life. I’ve always dreamt about going to a pour country and build a school there or do something else to help those people. I’m really lucky I was born in one of the ‘Western country’s’ but I’ve always wanted to help the less fortunate. Maybe after graduating I’ll do it for a couple of months…who knows

Hi Stef!
This entry is almost spotless but one very small error is near the end when you speak about dreaming.
You dream about something or dream of something so your phrase "I’ve always dreamt to go..." is missing a preposition.
On average though your English (as always) is excellent!
Cheers,
Darlene
