way. Or another person says well, I’d like to live an out-of-doors life and ride horses. I said
you want to teach in a riding school? Let’s go through with it. What do you want to do?
When we finally got down to something, which the individual says he really wants to do, I
will say to him, you do that and forget the money, because, if you say that getting the
money is the most important thing, you will spend your life completely wasting your time.
You’ll be doing things you don’t like www.film-english.com by Kieran Donaghy doing in
order to go on living, that is to go on doing things you don’t like doing, which is stupid.
Better to have a short life that is full of what you like doing than a long life spent in a
miserable way. And after all, if you do really like what you’re doing, it doesn’t matter
what it is, you can eventually turn it – you could eventually become a master of it. It’s the
only way to become a master of something, to be really with it. And then you’ll be able to
get a good fee for whatever it is. So don’t worry too much. That’s everybody is –
somebody is interested in everything, anything you can be interested in, you will find
others will. But it’s absolutely stupid to spend your time doing things you don’t like, in
order to go on spending things you don’t like, doing things you don’t like and to teach our
children to follow in the same track. See what we are doing, is we’re bringing up children
and educating to live the same sort of lives we are living. In order that they may justify
themselves and find satisfaction in life by bringing up their children to bring up their
children to do the same thing, so it’s all retch, and no vomit it never gets there. And so,
therefore, it’s so important to consider this question, “What do I desire?”
Homework
The students write a composition titled What I would do if money was no object?
They could start it in class and continue at home (depending on the time left in class).
ACTIVIDAD ESTRELLA
C1
ACTIVIDAD
A lo largo de mis años de experiencia enseñando inglés en niveles avanzados y C1, he entendido
que una de las dificultades mayores con que se encuentran estos alumnos es la adquisición y
asimilación de nuevo vocabulario. Una actividad que me gusta realizar en este sentido, mínimo
dos o tres veces al año, es la explotación de artículos de prensa en clase, concretamente del
DAILY BULLETIN del que podemos disponer semanalmente en la EOI de Palma.
