Un cœur dans la glace
Gaspard, le souriceau, garde au fond de son cœur un petit secret: Susie, une petite souris coquine, lui a fait tourner la tête.
Mais Gaspard est quelque peu timide et lorsqu'il aperçoit la belle Susie, ses jambes se mettent à trembler et, bouche bée, il la regarde passer.
Comment lui déclarer sa flamme? Gaspard a une fabuleuse idée: il s'élance sur la mare gelée et dessine sur la glace un grand cœur pour sa bien-aimée. Celle-ci, clignant des yeux, lui offre alors un tendre baiser!

And when it comes to the present simple tense, they're the cool cats effortlessly denoting routine actions. So, put on your linguistic shades and get ready to disco with Smith, because decoding adverbs of frequency just got a whole lot more fun! (Part2)
