The scary name of a street in Spain.
Included are some explanations of common expressions.
We need to practice expressions, because often the direct translation doesn't make sense and sounds crazy!

LECTURA COMPRENSIVA.


ESTE CUENTO NOS HABLA DE LAS AVENTURAS DEL GORRIÓN.


Antes de comenzar la lectura.

1. ¿Cual es tu estación climática favorita?

2. ¿Cual es tu estación climática no favorita?

Presta atención a la lectura de tu profesor.


Dime: ¿ Cuánto pesa un copo de nieve?

Dime cuánto pesa un copo de nieve, preguntó un gorrión a una paloma.
Nada de nada, le contestó.

Entonces debo contarte algo maravilloso, dijo el gorrión:

Estaba yo posado en la rama de un abeto, cerca de su tronco, cuando
empezó a nevar. No era una fuerte nevada ni una ventisca furibunda. Nada
de eso.

Nevaba como si fuera un sueño, sin nada de violencia. Y como yo no tenía
nada mejor que hacer, me puse a contar los copos de nieve que se iban
asentando sobre los tallitos de la rama en la que yo estaba. 

Los copos fueron exactamente 952. Al caer el siguiente copo de nieve sobre la rama que,
como tú dices, pesaba nada de nada, la rama se quebró.

Dicho esto, el gorrión se alejó volando.

Y la paloma, toda una autoridad en la materia desde la época de Noé, quedó
cavilando sobre lo que el gorrión le contara y al final se dijo:

Tal vez esté faltando la voz de una sola persona para que en este mundo
tenga lugar la paz.
