Carrots, Eggs or Coffee Beans Movie: All of us at one time or another have experienced a difficult situation, had setbacks, or dealt with our share of disappointment. Most things that happen to us on a daily basis we can’t control but it is not what happens to us that matters but rather, how we choose to respond.Watch the video, while you study English learn a lesson and pass it on, whether in Portuguese or in English.

Answer Key to page 26 and Review - CAE

Crazy & Saints - Oscar Wilde

Crazy & Saints - Oscar Wilde

I choose my friends not by their skin or other archetype, but by the pupil.

They have to have questioning shine and unsettled tone.

I'm not interested in the good spirits or the ones with bad habits.

I'll stick with the ones that are made of me being crazy and blessed.

From them, I don't want an answer, I want to be reviewed.

I want them to bring me doubts and fears and to tolerate the worst of me.

But that only being crazy.

I want saints, so they daunt doubt differences and ask for forgiveness for injustices.

I choose my friends for their clean face and their soul exposed.

I don't just want a man or a skirt, I also want his greatest happiness.

A friend that doesn't laugh together doesn't know how to cry together.

All my friends are like that, half foolish, half serious.

I don't want foreseen laughter or cries full of pity.

I want serious friends, those that make reality their fountain of knowledge, but that fight to keep fantasy alive.

I don't want adult or boring friends.

I want half kids and half elderly.

Kids, so they don't forget the value of the wind blowing on their faces and elderly people so they're never in a hurry.

I have friends to know who I am.

Then seeing them as clowns and serious, crazy and saints, young and old, I will never forget that 'normalcy' is a sterile and imbecile illusion.

PRE-INTERMEDIATE B 

The most beautiful building in my town is  Do Carmo's cathedral, it is in the city centre, on Calçadão.The construction began in 1787.It was designed by a Portuguese artist.
   It is a big cathedral, it has a lot of spires and windows.
I have never gone in the cathedral, i don't know the view of the cathedral.It is free to go in it.
  By Mariana Accorsi Telles

The most beautiful building in my town in my opinion is Do Carmo's church.It is on calçadão and is in front of my house .
I don't know who designed it,but i know the style is gothic and i belive it was built in the last century.Inside this church it is incredibly beautiful with a lot of statues,frescos and monuments.We can have a view but just from the bell.
It's completely free,so everyone can go in.
By Caroline Dumont

The most beautiful building in the world is The Louvre Museum. It's located in France, in the centre of Paris.
It was designed by Felipi II, in 1190, a French designer.
It's an amazing building, with a hall in a pyramide format, all of its hall is made only with glass.
Inside there are a lot of statues, paintings, ornate carpets and a fantastic view from the windows, you can see the big and beautiful ceramics surroundings of the museum.
It's impossible to forget the most popular painting, Monalisa by Leonardo da Vinci. You don't pay anything just don't stay much time in the same room, because the rule is clear: few people in the rooms and don't forget to change rooms.  
By Junior.

- There isn't a view from Obelisco, since you can't go upstairs, but it's still kind of beautiful.
- Obelisco looks like a tower. It's completely white and you can see a very small window on the top. It's very large, although I don't know exactly how tall it is.
- Unfortunately, you can't go inside Obelisco.
- You can't go inside it, but it's free to see it from outside.
- Obelisco is very famous in Buenos Aires and people seem to like it. It's located in the most crowded street of the city. Around there, you can see incredibly expensive hotels and a theatre. If you walk behind Obelisco, you can visit Avenida Florida; this is where tourists buy souvenirs and go shopping.
- I don't know who designed Obelisco or when it was completed, but I guess it was made by an architect from Argentina, a long time ago.
(obelisco may be called NEEDLE in English)
