Uso de las palabras "FINALMENTE / AL FINAL"

Bonjour à toi, cher étudiant ! Aujourd'hui, je t'emmène dans une aventure culinaire inoubliable. Installe-toi confortablement et prépare-toi à découvrir l'histoire du "Festin Inattendu."

Il était une fois, deux amis passionnés de cuisine, Antoine et Sophie, étudiants de niveau DELF B1. Un jour, ils décidèrent de partir à l'aventure à la recherche de la meilleure bouffe de leur ville natale, Paris. Armés de leur curiosité et de leur appétit insatiable, ils sillonnèrent les rues pavées à la recherche de saveurs extraordinaires.

Après des heures de déambulation, Antoine et Sophie découvrirent un petit bistro caché au coin d'une rue. Là, le chef, un homme jovial nommé Pierre, préparait une cuisine française authentique. Ils décidèrent de s'asseoir et de goûter les plats qui sortaient de la cuisine.

Les premières bouchées furent une révélation pour nos deux amis. Une soupe à l'oignon gratinée qui fondait en bouche, suivie d'un coq au vin tendre à souhait. Les saveurs se mélangeaient dans une symphonie gustative. Antoine et Sophie étaient aux anges.

Après ce festin inoubliable, Antoine et Sophie se tournèrent l'un vers l'autre et réalisèrent qu'ils avaient trouvé bien plus qu'un repas délicieux. Ils avaient découvert une passion commune pour la bonne cuisine et décidèrent de suivre des cours de cuisine ensemble pour approfondir leurs connaissances.

Et voilà, cher étudiant, l'histoire du "Festin Inattendu" se termine. Antoine et Sophie sont devenus des chefs accomplis, et leur aventure gastronomique les a rapprochés plus que jamais. 

Alors, n'oublie jamais que la bonne bouffe peut non seulement ravir tes papilles, mais aussi changer le cours de ta vie !

🗣️ Daily Life Dialogues

A dialogue between two friends who met after long time (Chapter # 3)

When we talk about "screen time," we're often thinking about the effect that time spent on devices has on young people.

But what about the effect that those screens have on our eyes?

Whether you're using Instagram or Microsoft Excel, experts say that spending a lot of time looking at a screen isn't good for you.

But if you have to use a computer for work, what can you do to stay healthy?

Many eye experts say you should follow the "20-20-20 rule." This means taking a 20-second break every 20 minutes to look at something about 20 feet away — that's about 6 meters.

This gives your eyes a break and makes them change their focus from the screen that's near to you, to something that's farther away.

Make sure the screen is the right brightness, too. A screen that's too bright or too dark will make you strain your eyes. But your device can help you with this.

The idea is to reduce the amount of blue light that your eyes are getting, something that "night mode" on your device does. And some companies now sell blue light glasses that can help.

Sitting the right distance from the screen is also a good idea: at least 50 centimeters away is often given as a suggestion.

If you find you're moving close to the screen and straining your eyes to see, you could try making the fonts on your screen larger.

And don't forget to blink! Blinking stops your eyes from getting dry and it can also help to reduce eye strain.
