＃11 ＜おしゃべり会＞高校時代のスリッパの話

NOVA PASSANTE


1. sobre
esta pele branca
um calígrafo oriental
teria gravado sua escrita
luminosa
— sem esquecer entanto
a boca: um
ícone em rubro
tornando mais fogo
suor e susto
tornando mais ácida e
insana a sede
(sede de dilúvio)

2. talvez
um poeta afogado num
danúbio imaginário dissesse
que seus olhos são duas
machadinhas de jade escavando o
constelário noturno:
a partir do que comporia
duzentas odes cromáticas
— mas eu que venero (mais que o ouro verde
raríssimo) o marfim em
alta-alvura de teu andar em
desmesura sobre uma passarela de
relâmpagos súbitos, sei que
tua pele pálida de papel
pede palavras
de luz

3. algum
mozárabe ou andaluz
decerto
       te dedicaria
um concerto
            para guitarras mouriscas
e cimitarras suicidas
(mas eu te dedico quando passas
no istmo de mim a isto
este tiroteio de silêncios
esta salva de arrepios)

Brazilian Poems and Literature

Nova passante - Carlito Azevedo

As it's already May, a lot of the part 1 and part 2 topics are changing in the IELTS speaking exam. Let's start with the topic "Describe a positive change you made in your life" with some good idioms which are explained below.

Remember this is just an example answer, and you should never learn example answers off by heart. It's very important to speak naturally in the speaking exam.


Idioms used in the example answer:

Out of shape

If someone is unhealthy or not able to do a lot of physical activity, we can say they are out of shape.

“He drinks and smokes too much, and has become very out of shape.”



In good shape

If you’re in good shape, you are fit and healthy. This  especially refers to the physical condition of your body ( being at a healthy weight, not overweight, getting plenty of exercise)


Run down

If you’re feeling run down, you are tired and lacking energy, usually after a sustained period without enough rest.

“After working late in the office every night for the last 2 weeks, he started to feel very run down.”


Full of beans

Someone who has a lot of energy might be described as full of beans.

“Young children are always full of beans, and love to run around, and play.”


Fit as a fiddle

Fit as a fiddle means ‘in very good health’ and may more often be used to refer to older people.

“My grandfather is 86, but is still as fit as a fiddle, and goes to exercise in the park every morning.”


Picture of good health

To look the picture of health simply means to look very healthy and well.

“Wow! Have you been going to the gym recently? You look the picture of health.

The interrogative pronoun “什么” is used in interrogative sentences, serving as the object by itself or together with a nominal element following it. For example:

zhè shì shén me ？ 
这  是  什   么 ？ 

zhè shì shén me shū ？ 
这  是  什   么 书  ？ 

nà shì shén me ？ 
那 是  什   么 ？ 

nà shì shén me shuǐ ɡuǒ ？ 
那 是  什   么 水   果  ？ 

nǐ xǐ huɑn shén me ？ 
你 喜 欢   什   么 ？
