FAREWELL, GREAT CHAMPION

DAVIDE ASTORI

The world of football, not only Italian football, is still shocked and mourning a young champion and a great  human being.  On 4th March 2018 Davide Astori, 31,  suddenly and unexpectedly died in his sleep in a hotel in Udine, the day before the match Udinese vs Fiorentina. His death was caused by a cardiac arrest  as  determined by an autopsy conducted two days later. Both Serie A and Serie B matches scheduled for the 4th  March were postponed.

UEFA announced on ‘Twitter’ that a minute of silence had to be observed before every European match scheduled for that week. His death was a real shock for his mates, his friends and, of course his family.  His ex team-mate Carlos Sanchez collapsed to the ground after hearing the news of his death. In honour to Davide Astori both Cagliari and Fiorentina  retired number 13 which was Astori’s.

OSCAR FEVER

There was an Oscar night! The most important event in the movie world took place in the City of Angels, again this year! Beautiful dresses, talented actors and actresses, so much fun, tense moments and so on and so forth! The Oscar night gave great emotions with some touching and inspiring speeches.      

                  

“This year, when you hear your name called, don’t get up right away”

Jimmy Kimmel opened the ceremony promising there would be no sequel to the 2017 Best Picture mishap. Do you remember? Warren Beatty announced La La Land had won the Academy Awards when in fact Moonlight was the winner.

                Warren, what are you up to? You scared the hell out of everyone! Let's move on now!                                                             

I FIRST SAW MY WIFE 10 YEARS AFTER WE MARRIED

We watch movies. We read stories. Too often we forget that our lives are an adventure too!

We are surrounded by people who are really worth to be known.

 I am going to tell you about the experience of SHANDER. He tells us how everything that makes us different can be a gift.

“When you are blind you imagine how people look. Not by touching their face our gauging their height, but by their voice, and the kind of person they are”.

READING THE NEWSPAPERS

Teenagers usually don’t like reading the newspaper - or reading in general -  but if you want to enrich your vocabulary reading is very useful. We tried this activity in pairs during one of our recent lessons: our teacher brought real English newspapers and we leafed through the pages in search of interesting news or curiosities. Our task was writing down a summary of the article giving the reasons why we had chosen it . It was quite useful and here are the results of our work in pairs.
