Upper Intermediate_B2-C1: 2nd Session_A Matter of Chance

 Hi  guys, 


It's time to post your comments about what you have read during this week. 

So, please, choose a question to answer from the following ones: 

a) Why did the roof-tile fell and hit Jacky in the middle of her head? Was it a matter of chance? 

b) Have you ever fallen in love with a place the first moment you got there so that you planned to move out tho that place leaving everything behind? Why?

c) Why couldn't  Paul stop thinking about Sandra when he went on a tour of the villas of Veneto?

d) Do you think Paul made a good decision when he accepted spending the weekend at the old house in Magreglio

e) Why was Sandra talking seriously to a very well-dressed man with a bald head and designer sunglasses in Switzerland?

f) Why was Sandra behaving suspiciously at Portofino?

Then, choose a partner to interact with and reply to his/her post.

Best,

Jimena Rivadeneira, MA. TEFL.

  2. Good morning, my fellow club members.
    1) Have you ever fallen in love with a place the first moment you got there so that you planned to move out tho that place leaving everything behind? Why?
    Actually, yes. My grandparents have a little ranch in Jipijapa, Manabi. I visite them once in a while and boy, let me tell you, it's a beautifil and stunning place. It calms me down from the stress of the suburban life. When I'm older I wish I live there, in the countryside :).

    1. I think that is a hard decision because you go far away of your family anda friends that you made in all your life, I think that you have to hate your currently live to leave all back or really really love the new place.

    2. I agree with Julio, because it is very difficult to leave behind your parents and friends that you have made during your life, also starting a new life in another place is very difficult, because you have to start over. Make new friends, meet new people.

  3. e) Why was Sandra talking to was talking seriously to a very well-dressed man with a bald head and designer sunglasses in Switzerland?


    Until where I read, the writter don't specific who is the man, but in the last chapter I had read, Sandra say that he is a friend of family and that day she was talking about bussiness, but I think that is very suspiciusly and I think that he is something like the boss of Sandra

    1. I agree with you with the strange attitude of Sandra and I almost certain that she's in a illegal business because she had a expensive car even though her salary is low.

    Really yes, there is a place I traveled to when I was younger on the other side of the world (Spain). I was able to meet new people, people from other countries, and learn about their customs and traditions. I would like to return to learn more about these people and to be able to travel more to other countries in the world.

  5. I think Paul didn't made a good decision to stay in that home because he's getting into a situation what he wouldn't understand or probably it can put him in a horrible moment or maybe he would be a victim of all of that.

    1. Yes, it is a hard situation. You know what they say, time's arrow that only marches forward, neither stands still nor reverses. The only thing that can heals Paul it's time.

  6. c) Sandra was like a ray of hope for Paul. Villas of veneto was the place where Jacky and Paul were going to spend their vacations. After Jacky's death, Paul was so depressed and after looking Sandra's picture and the kiss, he started to think about her.

    1. I think the same. Also it's a opportunity to rebuild his life etep by step. For me was a good decision, he could fall in love again if he feels comfotable with that.
