Hey!

Today, you started a new unit with this document:

Here is what you said about it:

The woman did plastic surgery / cosmetic surgery, and it is a success because her crow's feet and wrinkles disappeared / vanished: she had a facelift.

Before the surgery, she used to have a big nose whereas now, she has a thinner one.

Now, she probably feels more confident, stronger, prettier and more seducing than before.

Today, you started a new chapter. First, you identified the different people on the pictures and said what they had in common. Then, you focused on the last man and tried to understand why he can be considered as a fallen hero.

To finish, you checked your assumptions with the beginning of the article:

Here is what you said:

Bill Clinton was unfaithful /cheated on his wife with Monica Lewinsky when he was the president of the U.S.
Colonel Russell Williams was a high-ranking/well-promoted pilot. He is accused of murdering two young women.
Lance Armstrong used to be a cyclist. He took drugs / steroids so as to improve / enhance his performances.
Oscar Pistorius used to run in the Paralympics because he's disabled. He killed his girlfriend.
All people/ All of them were models who were involved in scandals so they became fallen heroes.
First, they all denied but in the end Bill Clinton and Lance Armstrong confessed.

Written by Ornella.

Oscar Pistorrus who used to be a disabled athlete for the Paralympics, killed his fiancé.

Lance Armstrong used to be a cyclist who took drugs so as to enhance / improve his cycling performances.
