L’anno è finito e sta per arrivare il duemilaventidue. Come festeggerai la notte di San Silvestro?
Jimmy parteciperà a un Cenone organizzato dai suoi amici. Andranno a cena insieme e poi aspetteranno la mezzanotte per fare un brindisi e farsi gli auguri.
Mentre aspetta ha deciso di fare un bilancio di fine anno e di stilare una lista di buoni propositi per l’anno nuovo.

Quest’anno per lui è stato molto positivo perché si è traferito in Italia, ha conosciuto molte persone nuove, ha imparato la lingua italiana e ha viaggiato molto. Insomma, è stato un anno pieno di esperienze positive ed è molto soddisfatto! Spera che il prossimo anno sarà altrettanto positivo.
La sua lista di buoni propositi è questa:
raggiungerà un livello avanzato di italiano;
leggerà solo libri in italiano;
andrà a visitare la Toscana;
ascolterà ogni settimana i podcast di Cocai Italiano per migliorare la lingua;
imparerà a cucinare la lasagna;
comprerà una gondola per fare il giro di Venezia via canale.
È già tardi, è ora di andare a festeggiare il nuovo anno! Jimmy lascia il suo diario e corre a casa dei suoi amici per salutare l’anno che verrà!

They look at the nameplates on the door.  "Hello," says Lisa.  The man and woman look at Lisa.  "Good afternoon," says the woman.  Lisa hears that she is from Belgium.  They do speak Dutch there, but it sounds different.  Softer.  friendly.  'Can I help you?'  asks Lisa.  "Please," says the woman.  'We're looking for Dan.  He lives here right?  Lisa nods¹.  'Yes, Daan lives here,' she says.  She opens the door and walks in.  The man and woman follow her.  'Daan lives in room 10,' says Lisa.  She points to the door at the end of the hallway.
