Dia de lavar roupa

New York is 3 hours ahead of California,
but it does not make California slow.
Someone graduated at the age of 22,
but waited 5 years before securing a good job!
Someone became a CEO at 25, 
and died at 50.
While another became a CEO at 50,
and lived to 90 years.
Someone is still single,
while someone else got married.
Obama retires at 55,
& Trump starts at 70.
Absolutely everyone in this world works based on their Time Zone.
People around you might seem to go ahead of you,
some might seem to be behind you.
But everyone is running their own RACE, in their own TIME
Don’t envy them or mock them.
They are in their TIME ZONE, and you are in yours!
Life is about waiting for the right moment to act.
So, RELAX.
You’re not LATE.
You’re not EARLY.
You are very much ON TIME.

这首诗是我五年前在网上偶然发现的，直至现在仍然备受鼓舞。我是个土生土长的中国人，我的父母也是非常按部就班的中国人，在他们看来我这个年龄就应该结婚生子，而我更享受自由。
最近法国的气温慢慢升高了，鸟语花香，每个人笑容洋溢，希望这个世界能够恢复疫情前的样子，祝福大家笑口常开！

The Habits of Highly Effective English Communicators

Practicing English.Listening & Comprehension 

En español hay nombres que además de un plural, tienen un nombre colectivo que hace referencia a un conjunto o agrupación de cosas. Estos nombres colectivos hacen referencia a algo plural pero irónicamente son gramaticalmente singulares.

En el episodio de hoy te explico los nombres colectivos y hablo de algunos de ellos.

Espero que disfrutes el episodio.  Después de escucharlo no te olvides de decirme 

-si conocías los nombres colectivos que menciono en el episodio

-y, si conoces algún otro.

IELTS Speaking preparation. Band 8-9 Answers. Part 1 - Law.

Q. Why do you think law and order are important?
Q. Who/which department is most responsible for enforcing the law?
Q. Should laws be more universal?
Q. Is there any law you think is too strict? [Why?/Why not?]
Q. How do people in your country generally think about obeying laws?
