Pretty Little Liar
Gatsby is a self-made man. Son of poor farmers from North Dakota, he becomes a millionaire and the owner of a luxurious mansion where extravagant parties are hosted. Gatsby is a legend but he never mentions his past. Many people gossip about his life. In this extract, Gatsby finally talks about his past to Nick, the narrator.
“I’ll tell you God’s truth.” His right hand suddenly ordered divine retribution to stand by. "I am the son of some wealthy people in the Middle West - all dead now. I was brought up in America but educated at Oxford, because all my ancestors have been educated there for many years. It is a family tradition.”
He looked at me sideways - and I knew why Jordan Baker had believed he was lying. He hurried the phrase “educated at Oxford,” or swallowed it, or choked on it, as though it had bothered him before. And with this doubt, his whole statement fell to pieces, and I wondered if there wasn’t something a little sinister about him, after all.
“What part of the Middle West?” I inquired casually.
“San Francisco.”
“I see.”
“My family all died and I came into a good deal of money.”
His voice was solemn, as if the memory of that sudden extinction of a clan still haunted him. For a moment 20 I suspected that he was pulling my leg, but a glance at him convinced me otherwise.
“After that I lived like a young rajah in all the capitals of Europe - Paris, Venice, Rome - collecting jewels, chiefly rubies, hunting big game, painting a little, things for myself 25 only, and trying to forget something very sad that had happened to me long ago.”
With an effort I managed to restrain my incredulous laughter. The very phrases were worn so threadbare that they evoked no image except that of a turbaned “character” 30 leaking sawdust at every pore as he pursued a tiger through the Bois de Boulogne.
“Then came the war, old sport. It was a great relief, and I tried very hard to die, but I seemed to bear an enchanted life.”
The Great Gatsby, F. Scott Fitzgerald, 1925
Notes: to swallow: allow food/drink to pass down the throat to choke: to have something stuck in the throat to haunt: to trouble repeatedly a rajah: an Indian prince big game: large animals hunted for sport laughter: the act of laughing

Kylie Jenner
*
Once upon a time, Kylie Jenner was just a teenager with an aptitude for makeup and a big dream.
Having “struggled for a minute with finding something to do on my own,” you know, back when she was still in high school, she keyed in on her love of beauty, feeling she could spin her $29 lip kits, simply a liner and matching lipstick, into a worldwide beauty empire that could rival the likes of Revlon and L’Oréal.
“I want to be as big as the other [cosmetic] brands,” she mused to Complex in 2016, not even a year after her first wave of products nearly broke the internet, to borrow a phrase from big sister Kim Kardashian. “It’s my dream to be on Forbes.”
Time to start reaching higher. Not only did the 20-year-old Kylie Cosmetics founder grace the cover of the revered business magazine this week, her likeness appeared next to a headline touting her as a “cosmetics queen” and predicting she’d become the youngest self-made billionaire. Ever. For reference, that’s a title once held by Microsoft founder Bill Gates and, currently, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg.“The youngest self-made billionaire. Ever.”
Detractors were quick to quibble over the use of the term “self-made”. After all, thanks to the luck of genetics, she’s been part of the family business since the age of nine, building up her indomitable fanbase (at 111 million Instagram followers, she consistently ranks in the top 10 on the social media platform) thanks to her scene-stealing antics on a little-known reality show called Keeping Up With the Kardashians. Even Dictionary.com couldn’t resist poking fun at her undeniable head start by tweeting, “Self-made means having succeeded in life unaided.”

In Greenland and in the Arctic I was astonished to see that ancient glaciers are rapidly disappearing well ahead of scientific predictions.
All that I’ve seen and learned on my journey has absolutely terrified me.
There is no doubt in the world scientific community that this is a direct result of human activity and the effects of climate change will become astronomically worse in the future.
Our planet cannot be saved unless we leave fossil fuel's in the ground where they belong.
Now think about the shame that each of us will carry when our children and grandchildren look back and realize that we had the means of stopping this devastation and simply lacked the political will to do so.
Yes, we’ve achieved the paris agreement. More countries have come here together to sign this agreement today than for any other cause in the history of humankind. And that’s a reason for hope. But unfortunately the evidence shows us that will not be enough.
A massive change is required right now., one that leads to a new collective consciousness a new collective evolution of the human race, inspired and enabled by a sense of urgency from all of you.
We can congratulate each other today.
But it will mean absolutely nothing if you return to your countries and fail to push beyond the promises of this historic agreement.
Now is the time for bold action. It’s time to declare no more talk, no more excuses, no more ten-year studies, no more allowing the fossil fuel companies to manipulate and dictate the science and policies that affect our future.
The world is now watching. You'll either be lauded by future generations or vilified by them. You are the last best hope of earth. We ask you to protect it or we and all living things we cherish are history.

Well here is where it gets interesting.
Because it turns out that if you can find a sport and a team you like,
studies show that there are all sorts of benefits that go beyond the physical and mental benefits of exercise alone.
Some of the most significant are psychological benefits both in the short and long term.
Some of those come from the communal experience of being on a team,
for instance learning to trust and depend on others,
to accept help, to give help,
and to work together towards a common goal.
In addition, commitment to a team and doing something fun
can also make it easier to establish a regular habit of exercise.
School sport participation has also been shown to reduce the risk of suffering from depression four up to four years.
Meanwhile (pendant ce temps) your self-esteem and confidence can get a big boost.

Solution Excerpt #2

There are few reasons for that.
One is found in training.
Just by working and working at skills
especially with a good coach
you reinforce a growth mindset within yourself.
That's when you say "Even if I can't do something today,
I can improve myself through practice and achieve it eventually.
That mindset is useful in all walks of life.
And then there is learning through failure,
One of the most transformative long-term benefitS of playing sports.
The experience of coming to terms with defeat can build the resilience and self-awareness
necessary to manage academic, social and physical hurdles.

14 to look looked looked
*
To look up :
• L’une des significations les plus simples et courantes correspond à la traduction littérale de l’expression to look up : regarder vers le haut / lever les yeux. Par exemple :
• I looked up from the computer screen.
J’ai levé les yeux de mon écran d’ordinateur.
• Autre sens lié à l’idée de search que l’on évoquait en introduction : rechercher quelque chose. Il est très courant de trouver plus spécifiquement cette expression dans des contextes liés à une recherche dans un dictionnaire ou une liste de contacts :
• I often have to look up the meaning of unfamiliar words in the dictionary.
• Je dois souvent chercher la signification de mots inconnus dans le dictionnaire.
• Enfin, lorsque look up se voit compléter par « to », il prend le sens d’admirer. C’est le cas dans la phrase :
• I look up to Travis Rice because he’s the best snowboarder in the world.
J’admire Travis Rice car c’est le plus grand snowboarder du monde.
To look after :
• Un verbe plutôt simple, puisqu’il revêt principalement le sens de surveiller quelqu’un. On l’utilise très souvent à l’écrit comme à l’oral dans des expressions du quotidien telles que :
• Today I am looking after the children.
• Aujourd’hui, je m’occupe des enfants.
To look at :
• La préposition « at » est obligatoire dès lors que vous souhaitez utiliser look dans le sens de regarder quelque chose / quelqu’un, voire examiner :
• The sailor looked at the horizon.
• Le marin regardait l’horizon.
• Attention cependant à ne pas utiliser look at lorsque vous souhaitez exprimer l’idée de regarder la télévision ou un film. Dans ces contextes, le verbe utilisé est « watch » :
• I am watching the television.
• Je regarde la télévision.
To look down :
• Tout comme look up, la traduction la plus courante de look down est littérale : regarder vers le bas / baisser les yeux. Par exemple : I know the direction ; anyway there is too much traffic to look down at the GPS.
• Je connais la route, et de toute façon, la circulation est trop dense pour baisser les yeux vers le GPS.
• Lorsque look down est suivi de « on », il prend alors le sens de mépriser / regarder de haut :
• It is wrong to look down on people less fortunate that yourself.
Ce n’est pas bien de regarder de haut les gens moins chanceux que soi.
Cette expression, tout comme son contraire look up to vu précédemment, est intéressante à connaître pour étoffer votre champ lexical. N’hésitez pas à les noter dans votre logbook !
To look around / round :
• Autre verbe plutôt simple, puisqu’on le traduit la plupart du temps de manière littérale : regarder autour de soi. Par exemple :
Look around you !
Regarde autour de toi !
• Dans certains contextes, look around a davantage le sens d’inspecter / visiter :
• Do not forget to look around your home to be sure everything is fine.
• N’oublie pas de faire le tour de la maison pour vérifier que tout est normal.

A Modest Step for the Refugees
Photo
Credit Rachel Levit
The European Union finally did the very least it could do on Tuesday and voted to distribute 120,000 asylum seekers among member nations. That will relieve some of the pressure on the frontline countries flooded by the unending flow of refugees from the Middle East and North Africa. But the long delay in taking even this modest step, and the bitter resistance of four Central European states, offer a graphic display of the grave threat posed by the crisis to the fundamental principles of the union.
Almost half a million people have arrived in Europe this year, most of them entering the European Union through Greece, Italy or Hungary. Yet despite the humanitarian and political challenge posed by the flood, the union has agreed only on the most basic responses. Tuesday’s vote of E.U. interior ministers — which requires compliance from the countries that voted no — came after weeks of futile efforts to reach a consensus on how to relocate at least some of the arrivals.
Details of the plan are still being worked out, and it is hard to see how E.U. countries will prevent asylum seekers from moving on to the haven of their choice, usually Germany. That is one of the arguments used by the Czech Republic, Hungary, Romania and Slovakia in voting against the plan. But the logistics are not the issue. European Union members were asked to share the biggest burden the Continent has been saddled with since World War II, and some of the newest members shamefully tried to cop out.
The refugee crisis, and before it the Greek debt crisis, have made plain that two fundamental achievements of the E.U. — the single currency and borderless travel — lack the necessary foundation of unified rules and institutions to function effectively in times of crisis. Both were essentially political attempts to graft the attributes of a single state onto a collection of largely independent states with only limited central controls. And not all countries signed on to the euro, the border-free Schengen zone or other joint obligations — Britain, Ireland and Denmark, for example, are not bound by the current refugee quotas.
But with all its inherent weaknesses, the European Union from the outset stood for more than trade or movement of peoples. It was intended to replace centuries of Continental warfare with a community of shared democratic and humane values. That’s what East European countries proudly signed on for when they broke free of Soviet-imposed Communist dictatorships in the 1990s.
That unity is being sorely tested today. Instead of coming together to cope with the crisis, many countries have retreated into a beggar-thy-neighbor stance. Germany, Austria, Hungary and Slovenia have re-established temporary border controls. Nationalist, populist and anti-E.U. parties have grown in strength. Slovakia, whose quota is a mere 802 refugees, has raised the loudest protest, with Prime Minister Robert Fico vowing to defy the E.U. vote.
At this point, interior ministers were right to stop trying for consensus and to impose quotas through a vote. Greece, Italy and Hungary simply cannot absorb the thousands who keep arriving, and the union simply cannot afford to scuttle what it stands for.

“Jimmy was bound to get ahead. He always had some resolves like this or something. Do you notice what he’s got about improving his mind? He was always great for that. He told me I et like a hog once and I beat him for it.” He was reluctant to close the book, reading each item aloud and then looking eagerly at me. I think he rather expected me to copy down the list for my own use.

“It just shows you.”
“Jimmy was bound to get ahead. He always had some resolves like this or something. Do you notice what he’s got about improving his mind? He was always great for that. He told me I et like a hog once and I beat him for it.” He was reluctant to close the book, reading each item aloud and then looking eagerly at me. I think he rather expected me to copy down the list for my own use.
The Great Gatsby, chapter 9, Francis Scott Fitzgerald, 1925
