Hello, everyone. How are things going? I hope that everyone is well. I am sorry that I have not updated in a while. To be completely honest, last week I was not feeling very well and I felt that I could not do my best. After that I just kept on procrastinating.
First, the presentation were awesome! I was really impressed with how good they were. I especially liked the presentations were the speaker clearly wrote the presentation and really connected with the audience. I hope that it was a good experience for everyone. I really enjoyed it.
There was quite a lot of new/hard words that came up during the presentations. Some of them were:
status What is your marital status?
underwent Paris Hilton underwent extensive plastic surgery.
violate Many people violate the “no-Korean” rule.
community service He had to serve 100 hours of community service for his mistake.
elect Do you think that the American public is ready to elect a woman?
committee Hillary Clinton is a member of the Armed Service Committee.
autograph Lisa got Won Bin’s (sp?) autograph.
black hole The ship got caught in a black hole and it was lost forever.
senator Hillary Clinton is the junior senator from New York.
pirate Johnny Depp plays a pirate in Pirates of the Caribbean.
acquainted I am aquainted with some aspects of Korean culture.
acquaintance She is not really my friend, I just know her, she is an acquaintance.
wisdom Solomon is famous for his wisdom.
triumvirate The first triumvirate was Julius Caesar,Pompey the great and Crassus.
assassin John F. Kennedy was killed by an assassin.
heir Paris Hilton is an heir to the Hilton family fortune.
backnumber Wayne Rooney’s number for England is 9.
Along with many words there were also some errors that should be covered. Here they are now:
He has good shape. >>> He is in good shape.
He’s a very tall. >>> He’s a very tall guy./He’s very tall.
She’s joined the group 2000. >>>> She joined the group in 2000.
She is a wonderful singer in the world. >>> She is a wonderful singer.
She is the best singer in the world.
My chose person was ____. >>> I chose ____./The person I chose was ____.
I found the information in the internet. >>> I found the information on the internet.
