Poerty # 1

And a John Dickson`s poetry .

THIS MORNING

I am shaving.
And the sallow-faced man next door is shaving. And the man whose life will be changed
when a girl talks to him in the subway,
and the president of Revco Steel—
they are shaving.

And the man who will capsize in a boat today
and breathe in the pure water of the lake
and gaze sightless up at the shimmering sun—
he is shaving.

And the man who will commit murder today destroying the only love he has ever known, though as yet his anger is still asleep,
and the man who will return from a day hunched at his desk,
his hair falling over his ledgers,
and the man who before sunset
will slice his wrists over the sink—
they are all shaving—
over the upper lip,
under the sloping jaw,
lathered face and razor in the mirror
but no revelations there...
no hint today.

We will walk out to the cool morning
where newspapers whirl in the wind,
out to the street that holds the buildings together.
But the premonitions are not quite strong enough—
 they rise to the pure darkness of space
or lie beneath the slow wheels of a train.
Dark fears are still asleep in the blood as we walk our ways
and there is no unusual animal behavior
to warn of the earthquakes to come.


sallow : Yellowish & Looking Unhealhy.
capsize : To cause a boat or ship to turn upside down accidentally while on water.
shimmering :Shining unevenly.

hunched :To leaned forward with your shoulders rised.
slope : A surface which lies at an angle to the horizontal.
razor : A small device with a sharp blade for remiving hair.
whirl : To turn around & around.
beneath : Under ( Not good enough).


I hope this blog be useful for you . Your comments will guide me to improve blog Thank you.

Resumation of "Improve English"

************************************************************
Understanding how you learn best may also help you.
There are different ways to learn. Find out what kind of learner you are in order to better understand how to learn more effectively..
The visual learner
Do you need to see your teacher during lessons in order to fully understand the content of a lesson?
Do you prefer to sit at the front of the classroom to avoid visual obstructions (e.g. people's heads)?
Do you think in pictures and learn best from visual displays including: diagrams, illustrated text books, overhead transparencies, videos, flipcharts and hand-outs?
During a lecture or classroom discussion, do you prefer to take detailed notes to absorb the information?
!Learning Tip - you may benefit from taking part in traditional English lessons, but maybe private lessons would be better.
The auditory learner
Do you learn best through verbal lectures, discussions, talking things through and listening to what others have to say?
Do you interpret the underlying meanings of speech through listening to tone of voice, pitch, speed and other nuances?
Does written information have little meaning until you hear it?
!Learning Tip - you may benefit from listening to the radio or listening to text as you read it. You could try reading text aloud and using a tape recorder to play it back to yourself.
The Tactile/Kinesthetic learner
Do you learn best through a hands-on approach, actively exploring the physical world around you?
Do you find it hard to sit still for long periods?
Do you become distracted easily?
!Learning Tip - you may benefit from taking an active part in role plays or drama activities.
Other English Learning Tips
Travel to an English speaking country:-
England is only a few hours flight away.
Specialist holidays are available to improve your English.
Take an English speaking tour or activity holiday.
Spend your time on things that interest you. If you like cooking then buy an English-language cookbook or find recipes on the net and practise following the recipes. You'll soon know if you have made a mistake!
Keep something English on you (book, newspaper or magazine, cd or cassette, set of flashcards) all day and every day, you never know when you might have 5 spare minutes.
If you are too tired to actively practice just relax and listen to an English pop song or talk radio station.

Improve English Part 1

Hi my friends

I read an article about "HOW WE CAN IMPROVE OUR ENGLISH LANGUEGE"
And I thought maybe it will be useful for you & I decided to provide it in this part
Enjoy it . Source : www.learnenglish.de
*************************************************************************************
My most important piece of advice is: "Do something (anything). If you don't do anything, you won't get anywhere. Make it your hobby, not a chore, but above all have fun!"
Don't be in too much of a hurry. You're setting off on a long journey and there'll be delays and frustrations along the way. Sometimes you'll be in the fast lane and other times you'll be stuck in traffic, but there will also be lots of interesting things and interesting people along the way. Take your time to really enjoy the experience.
There are many ways to improve your level of English, but only you can find the right way for you. Here are a few tips that might help:-

Improve your Learning Skills
Learning is a skill and it can be improved.
Your path to learning effectively is through knowing
* yourself
* your capacity to learn
* processes you have successfully used in the past
* your interest, and knowledge of what you wish to learn

Motivate yourself

If you are not motivated to learn English you will become frustrated and give up. Ask yourself the following questions, and be honest:-
* Why do you need to learn/improve English?
* Where will you need to use English?
* What skills do you need to learn/improve? (Reading/Writing/Listening/Speaking)
* How soon do you need to see results?
* How much time can you afford to devote to learning English.
* How much money can you afford to devote to learning English.
* Do you have a plan or learning strategy?

Set yourself achievable goals

You know how much time you can dedicate to learning English, but a short time each day will produce better, longer-term results than a full day on the weekend and then nothing for two weeks.
Joining a short intensive course could produce better results than joining a course that takes place once a week for six months.
Here are some goals you could set yourself:-
* Join an English course (and attend regularly).
* Do your homework.
* Read a book a month.
* Learn a new word every day.
* Visit an English speaking forum every day.
* Read a news article on the net every day.
* Do 10 minutes listening practice every day.
* Watch an English film at least once a month.
* Follow a soap, comedy or radio or TV drama.
A good way to meet your goals is to establish a system of rewards and punishments.
Decide on a reward you will give yourself for fulfilling your goals for a month.
* A bottle of your favourite drink
* A meal out / or a nice meal at home
* A new outfit
* A manicure or massage

Prayer

LORD
Let me live from day to day,
In such a self-forgetful way,
That even when I kneel* pray.

My prayer shall be for others.
Others , LORD , Yes , Others ;

Let this my motto** be,
Help me to live for others,
That I may live like thee*** !

The one who kneels to the LORD in prayer , can stand up to anything.


* : To go down into .
** : A short sentence or phrase that expresses a belief or purpose
*** : You : Used when speaking to one person .
