SHAKESPEARE IN LOVE (L)
Shakespeare in Love summary;William Shakespeare, a young playwright, has lost his creative muse and struggles to finish his latest play, Romeo and Ethyl, the Pirate’s Daughter. His cash-strapped benefactor and owner of the Rose theatre desperately needs the play to be completed so he can pay off his ruthless creditors from the profits. Viola De Lesseps, the daughter of a nouveau riche nobleman, passionately loves poetry and the theatre. She yearns to be an actor, but in Elizabethan England, women were forbidden to appear on the stage. While her parents are away for a month, Viola disguises herself as Thomas Kent and auditions for a part in Shakespeare’s unfinished play. Impressed with Thomas’ abilities, Shakespeare casts him as Romeo. Unknown to Viola, her social-climbing father has arranged her marriage to the pompous Lord Wessex, a poor but well-titled aristocrat. "Your father should keep you better informed. He has bought me for you." Shakespeare has fallen in love with Viola, who becomes his muse. Infused with newfound inspiration, he rewrites his play into Romeo and Juliet. He soon discovers, however, that Viola is Thomas Kent. He tells no one, and they engage in a secret passionate love affair. Shakespeare neglects to mention that he is already married.A rather horrid little boy (the future real-life playwright, John Webster) lurks about the theatre, spying on the troupe. He discovers Thomas is Viola and informs the magistrate. He and his men raid the Rose and close it, and an exposed Viola leaves in disgrace. All seems lost, but in a truly magnanimous gesture, Richard Burbage, owner of a rival theatre, the Curtain, offers his stage for Shakespeare’s play.
I love this film, it's very romantic*

Reporting an interview
AN INTERVIEW WITH TOBY HEMINGWAY by Carla Tarrés
Toby says that he was feeling good today. He’s happy when he’s out with friends, and he said that pasta and his clothes were two things which he couldn’t live without. If he could be anywhere in the world at this moment, he would be on a beach in the Seychelles with her girlfriend.
Toby has got a good memory, and he remembers all of the dialogues of his films. He remembers perfectly the script of one film called the game of love. This was his last film. The best he ever had.
He’s usually positive about the future. I asked if the planet would be a better place in a hundred years, and he said that it probably would. When he’s older, Toby thinks that he might live in Massachusetts, because he likes it. He promised that he wouldn’t lose his friends and family in the future.

A discussion essay
Internet and books
I’ve had a problem recently. My cousin Anna met a guy one week ago and he asked her out. They’ve met a twice times and I think that she likes him. I think he’s a bit younger than her, but I’m not sure because she doesn’t talk about him.
I’m worried because I haven’t met this person. I think my cousin should be more responsible about their relationship and I’d much happier if she introduced me to her boyfriend. But maybe I shouldn’t worry or interfere. I usually trust my cousin, but she has been rare recently.
I’d really like some advice because if I don’t stop do something now, we’ll probably have a big argument.
A diary entry
My bestfriend was in a car accident two days ago and she’s lucky to be alive.
She’d been at a bar and was coming home with Miriam oh his car.
She wasn’t wearing the belt, so she was really lucky that she wasn’t badly injured.
I think that my bestfriend was wrong to get on the bike without the belt.
I would have phoned a friend or phoned her parents. If she’d phoned them, they would’ve been angry, but it would’ve been OK.
I don’t think that this will happen again.
Her parents are furious and they’ve grounded Haley for two weeks.
So she’s probably learned her lesson now, but you never know with Laura.

A letter: explaining a problem
I’ve had a problem recently. My bestfriend Lisa met a boy in the disco one weekend ago and he asked her out.
They've met three times and I think that she's fallen in love. I think he's a bit younger than her, but I'm not sure because she doesn't explain anything about him.
I'm worried because I haven't met this guy. I think my bestfriend should be more responsible with her relationship and I'd be not so worried if she introduced me to her new boyfriend George. But maybe I shouldn't interfere in their lives. Simply needs that my friend be happy. I usually trust Lisa, but she has been strange recently.
I'd like some advice because if I don't do something soon, we'll probably have a big argument.

A FORMAL LETTER
The community fund
27 Industria Street
Spain
27 Industria Street
Spain
8 Fontpudosa Road
Banyoles
10th December 2007
Dear Sir or Madam,
I'm writing to explain the problems of the city lighting.
Banyoles is a small town in the north of Spain.
There are a lot of beautiful places around the lake, but at night, the people can't admire it because they need more light.
I think that more lights is the best for the people of the town.
I would be grateful if you could send me information about this.
If you have any dubts about my idea, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Yours faithfully,
Carla Tarrés.
