TACOS DORADOS DE POLLO

En un entorn molt llunyà, més concretament a la selva, diversos animals convivien feliçment en un entorn salvatge. Però allà també hi vivia un lleó molt golafre, el rei de la selva, que acostumava a menjar-se entre 3 i 4 animals cada dia. Un dia, farts de viure espantats, tots els animals de la selva van organitzar una revolta i van anar a buscar el lleó.
– Accepto que soc una mica golafre, però necessito menjar animals per poder mantenir-me viu i fort. – Va dir el lleó.
Els animals semblaven entendre el que deia, però no podien permetre perdre tants amics cada dia. Finalment, van proposar un pacte que deia que el lleó només es menjaria un animal al dia. El lleó va remugar una mica, però finalment el va acceptar. La promesa no va durar gaires dies i, en un atac de golafreria, el lleó (que ja s’havia menjat un estruç aquell dia) va voler menjar-se un petit conill que passejava camí cap al seu cau. El conill havia vist un pou ple d’aigua uns quants metres enrere i com que era molt presumit s’havia estat mirant al reflex de l’aigua durant una bona estona. Però a part de presumit també era molt valent i va dir al lleó que coneixia un altre lleó que anava dient per la selva que era més poderós. Com podeu comprendre, al rei de la selva no li van agradar gens aquestes paraules, i va demanar al conill que el portés cap on estava aquest lleó.
Van anar caminant i el conill va demanar al lleó que s’aturés davant del pou. Assenyalant el reflex de l’aigua del pou amb el dit, li va dir:
-Mira'l, és aquí.

Listen to this short conversation where two friends talk about the man of their dreams.

Desribing someone

Man 1: Several years ago, I was in a car accident that left me with a back injury. As a computer programmer, I am still able to do my job, but I often have to take painkillers. When the pain gets particularly bad, I sometimes have to lie down on my back for a while until it goes away because sitting up really hurts. When we were in the office, I would worry that my colleagues would see me taking pills. Since we’ve been working from home, it has been much better. I can go and see my physical therapist more often too. I don’t have to worry as much and if I need to lie down for a little while to help my back, I can. When we were in the office, I’d sometimes be in a lot of pain but didn’t feel like I could say anything.

Woman: I have suffered from depression for a long time. Most of the time I manage it, but I often feel very nervous. Working in an office was really hard as I was always scared that I might panic and my colleagues would wonder why I was acting strangely. Working at home has been so much better for me as I don’t have to talk to so many people and I can have a relaxed environment and play peaceful music. Management is talking about going back to the office soon and I can already feel a lot of anxiety about it. I’m worried that I will not be able to hide that I’m depressed and people will judge me.

Man 2: I’m quite deaf in one ear. I don’t like to mention it when I’m at work because I feel as though there is often a stigma around disabilities. I worry that people will treat me differently. The problem is, sometimes I don’t hear when people are talking to me and then they think I’m ignoring them or I’m not listening. Working at home has been great for me because all of our communication has been online or video calls and I can wear headphones like everyone else. I’m not looking forward to going back to the office and I don’t see the point as I can do my job perfectly well from home.
