AN ANECDOTE OF
THIS ENGLISH LEVEL "PET"
For the first
time I don’t personally know my classmates and my teacher, I always get along
very well with my classmates, go to eat after school, have meetings, work in
the field, walk around the university or help them in their problems but this
level has been different due to the circumstances that the world is facing due
to the pandemic. The situation is getting more difficult, every single time
there are more people with the virus and we must take care of ourselves,
despite everything we have an online friendship, I think that if we know
something about each one such as their feelings and I’m sure that when we can
see each other, the friendship among my classmates and my teacher will last.
THANKSGIVING DAY
In the United States, Thanksgiving Day is a
celebration more than special and steeped in traditions and customs.
The meaning of this festival, which is celebrated
on the fourth Thursday in November - the day before Black Friday - is gratitude
for the harvests and its origin dates back to the arrival in the United States
of the first settlers from England.
The beginning of this deep-rooted celebration is
related to the arrival in the United States of the Mayflower, a ship with more
than 100 English settlers, in 1620.
One of the ingrained customs is to hold the
meeting at the home of the oldest relative. At a certain point in the meeting,
each one gives thanks for the good things obtained that year.
Pumpkin pie, carrot cake, and vegetable cream are
also commonly served.
Another tradition is that the boys prepare a
centerpiece, with natural elements and typical of the countryside - such as
scarecrows or pumpkins.
The meeting also usually revolves around the
classic soccer game of the date. In addition, large stores usually hold parades
with floats and children's characters. Macy's has been the most anticipated
since 1927.
STUDYING IN TIMES OF
PANDEMIC
For me this time
of the pandemic has been very different because I was already used to classes
at the university in the morning, in the afternoon I went to the university gym
and at night I also had classes, I was tired but I felt very good because I was
doing I exercise with my classmates. At the beginning I find it difficult to
adapt but I think I have gotten used to it. I hope this happens soon and go
back to the University, I miss even the food there.
That is true my dear Ismael. Our friendship will last no matter the situation.
ResponderEliminarIt has been a pleasure meeting you teacher. you are an excellent person and teacher. I will never forget it and thank you very much for everything.
EliminarCompanion, your solidarity as a friend, speaks highly of you. If this situation is very difficult for everyone but if we help each other everything will be easier, we must be responsible and take care of our family so that the pandemic does not reach our homes.

Thanks friend for your words. the situation is difficult but we have to take care of ourselves even more because the virus advances. I hope you and your family are well, greetings.
