Consumer Paradise
INFLUENCE : synonyme de persuasion, de manipulation, de sduction, mais aussi reflet de pratiques culturelles plus ou moins volontairement acceptes . OPPOSITION : expression dune contestation non violente, pouvant se traduire dans des structures politiques et sociales institutionnalises. (BO n 7 du 28 aot 2003.)
Ce folder aborde linfluence de la socit de consommation dans nos choix quotidiens, notamment par le biais de la publicit. Il explore, parfois avec humour, les mcanismes qui poussent notre socit vers une consommation immdiate, presque compulsive. La publicit en est larme la plus vidente. Nous invitons les lves en analyser les ressorts et prendre une certaine distance par rapport ce phnomne omniprsent.

La composante culturelle est un lment fondamental des programmes de lyce et dImpact, mais elle ne constitue pas un objet denseignement isoler de lapprentissage linguistique. linverse, elle justifie lapprentissage de la langue en lui donnant du contenu. Lobjectif du Culture Blog est damener les lves construire eux-mmes des repres culturels et se familiariser avec les outils langagiers fondamentaux qui vont leur faciliter lentre dans la thmatique et lapprhension des documents proposs. Les documents courts et faciles font appel la lecture et lcoute. Les textes ne dpassent pas 150 mots et ne prsentent pas de difficult syntaxique. Le professeur pourra, au choix, les faire lire la maison pour une exploitation en classe, les faire lire en classe par groupes de deux ou trois pour faciliter lentraide et amliorer lefficacit, faire lire seulement lun des textes par la moiti de la classe et lautre par lautre moiti pour donner lieu des changes. Les tches proposes sont simples, essentiellement de reprage, et conues pour tre ralises dans des dlais trs courts. Elles ciblent les points essentiels. Le Pod lecture est une mini-confrence, document facile et court, lu vitesse mesure, pour un premier contact avec la comprhension de loral. Ici aussi, les tches sont destines cibler la comprhension des points essentiels. LAction propose la fin du blog permet llve de synthtiser les informations et ainsi de se les approprier dans une dmarche personnelle. Cette tche correspond lapproche de type actionnel prconise dans le CECR : llve doit accomplir des tches dans des circonstances et un environnement donns. Les actes de parole se ralisent dans un contexte social qui leur donne leur pleine signification. Il y a tche dans la mesure o les lves mobilisent stratgiquement leurs comptences en vue de parvenir un rsultat dtermin.
Le professeur peut choisir de : faire lire les textes aux lves la maison et de leur faire faire lAction en classe; faire travailler les lves en groupes en classe de faon encourager le travail en quipe pour ce qui concerne la comprhension et ensuite crer une situation dchange dinformation entre les groupes; faire faire le travail individuellement pour entraner les lves la lecture en temps limit en vue des preuves du baccalaurat et, plus long terme, une comptence qui leur sera utile dans leur vie professionnelle.

1 Children and Advertising
QUOI ? POURQUOI ? COMMENT ?
Manuel p. 12/13
Ce premier texte montre comment les publicitaires se servent des enfants non seulement pour leur propre consommation mais aussi pour linfluence quils ont auprs de leurs parents. Notons que le texte donn en comprhension de loral pour lentranement lexamen (Exam File p. 22) traite le sujet plus fond. 1. Find the words: propre own dpenser spend moyenne average achat purchase. 2. Advertisers are more interested in children now because they have money or they influence their parents. 3. Consequences : advertisers spend a lot of money on advertising aimed at kids (bombarded) and find new ideas all the time to attract children; advertising has come into schools. 4. The situation in France. Rponse personnelle mais on peut dire : Children probably do not spend as much time in front of the TV and the number of commercials is more limited but children really are influenced by commercials that they often learn by heart. 5. Advertisers give away toys or various items in order to get children to want their products. 6

Nikes and LOreals slogans were successful. The other two were not (double entente + cultural mistake). 3. When advertising global products, it is essential to be careful about pronunciation; words with double entente; local sensibilities; social habits. 4. In a Muslim country, advertisers should not show a male actors chest or somebody using their left hand to handle food.
Transcription
Weve looked at successful advertising slogans slogans like Nikes Just do it or LOreals Im worth it. This week we are going to look at slogans that went wrong. Sometimes, pronunciation can ruin a product. Lets take the ad for the Toyota MR2 car. In France, MR2 is pronounced emm-er-deux obviously not a great name for a car! Words with double entente can be tricky too. One of my favourite flops was an African airlines slogan Flies all over Africa. Everybody had the impression that there were flies inside the plane! Local sensibilities can be offended. For example, the Drink Australian, think Australian slogan for a famous Australian beer didnt go down too well in New Zealand because New Zealanders just do not want to be Australian! And social habits can be a problem too. In some Muslim nations, ads can upset people if the male actor shows too much of his chest or if someone uses their left hand to handle food. It is of the greatest importance when advertising global products to take local people into account. You cannot expect to sell them something if they dont like your slogan or feel insulted by it or understand it wrongly. Action Make up a quiz

Selon les recommandations du programme de Premire, nous proposons aux lves une varit de documents enregistrs accessibles et courts. Llve devra tre entran comprendre lessentiel dun message oral, dans un anglais authentique et dont la dure nexcdera pas une minute et demie. Lenseignant graduera la difficult des enregistrements en fonction du nombre de locuteurs, de leur accent ou des thmes abords. (BO, hors srie n 7 du 28 aot 2003.) Lutilisation de documents authentiques implique une langue soumise lalatoire de la langue orale : accents divers, registres de langue divers, rythme du flot sonore vari.

SOUND FILE Ka-Ching
Manuel p. 14
The sound of money dominates the single from the Canadian super star Shania Twains Hit Album Up. Shania Twain epitomizes the country crossover phenomenon doing both pop and country music at the same time. About Ka-Ching she says: it is one of my favourite songs, because it does have the Shania cheekiness to it. I also think its a pretty fair observation of where were at, in terms of how commercial society has become, almost globally. This is of course why we thought this song was perfect to illustrate the instant gratification society we live in at the moment, where consumption has become so important.

Cette capacit, dont le dveloppement est capital pour tous les lves, ncessite un entranement systmatique. Le prambule commun aux programmes de Premire dcrit la dmarche : On engagera une initiation la lecture en veillant mettre en place des stratgies de comprhension qui soient transfrables de document en document. La dcouverte de chaque nouveau document mobilise toutes les capacits ncessaires, dans un premier temps, une comprhension des lments les plus immdiats. Lcrit permet le retour en arrire, la relecture, ce que loral ne permet pas. Il offre donc la possibilit dun travail en profondeur o mmoire et logique sont fortement sollicites. Toutes les stratgies de dcouverte du sens sont mises contribution pour construire une comprhension globale, affine progressivement pour donner accs limplicite. La lecture analytique permet dentrer dans la complexit dun texte, den analyser et den interprter les significations explicites et implicites. Elle est applique principalement des textes courts, sans vouloir mobiliser toutes les ressources de lexplication littraire, en se gardant dune technicit excessive qui naurait pas sa place dans un cours de langue vivante trangre, et en se gardant galement de toute exploitation exhaustive. Before you read Nous introduisons le thme et proposons des activits danticipation qui crent des attentes chez les lves et un cadre de rfrence leur permettant de mieux entrer dans la lecture.

TEXT FILE 1 The Power of Advertising
Manuel p. 16/17
Morgan V. Spurlock (born in 1970) is an American independent documentary film director, TV producer, and screenwriter. His most famous movie is Super Size Me, in which he demonstrated the negative health effects of McDonalds food by eating nothing but McDonalds food three times a day, every day, for one month. He got an Academy Award nomination for this movie and broke box-office records worldwide. In Dont Eat This Book, Spurlock looks at why fast food is so tasty, cheap, and ultimately seductive and interviews experts from surgeons general and kids to marketing gurus and lawmakers. Spurlock currently lives in New York City.

4. $18.2 billion : amount of money spent on advertising by the car industry in one year.
$15 billion a year: amount of money spent on advertising by the retail industry. $33 billion a year: amount of money spent on advertising by the food industry. 5. There are more cars than drivers in the US. The number of cars in France has increased in the last 20 years but the proportion is much smaller. A few figures, for reference: there are 36,3 million car in France. For a comparison, there are 794 car for 1,000 inhabitants in the US, compared with 21 for 1,000 inhabitants in China (figures for 2006). 6. Advertisers try to convince us that if we buy bigger cars, eat more food, use more drugs, we will be happier. On pourra faire faire des comparaisons avec la chanson de Shania Twain, Ka-Ching (p. 14), qui porte le mme message sous une autre forme. 7. People are no longer able to walk (no exercise), they buy lots of useless things (waste), they eat far too much (health problems), they take lots of medicine (addiction). 8. Advertising and marketing now whisper and shout and wink at us from every corner of our lives at home,
at work, at school. They are omnipresent and we cant help being brainwashed. In the rest of the text, Spurlock shows that we all exactly follow what we are being told. And we must have been listening, because we buy almost twice as much crap as our nearest competitor, Japan. Also see lines 16 to 19: So we all climb back into our giant vehicles 9.

The message we are bombarded with is always the same: consume, and consume some more. In the USA, the retail industry spends nearly $15 billion a year telling people what to buy. They get us to buy more cars, more food, more drugs, etc. They tell us what we want, what we need and what we should do to feel happy. Our desires are manipulated by advertising and marketing, everywhere at home, at work, at school. Action Make a speech

GRAMMAR FILE GRAMMAR FILE GRAMMAR FILE

Les programmes de Premire excluent le cours de grammaire en tant que tel mais invitent les professeurs toujours aborder la grammaire partir des documents proposs et en contexte dutilisation. Les avances sont accompagnes de rvisions et de rcapitulations rgulires dont les lves garderont la trace sous forme de notes dans leur cahier; les nouvelles connaissances sont intgres aux connaissances antrieures. Cest grce cette approche que llve chappe au sentiment de redite et limpression de stagnation. Les structures mises en place sont retravailles dans le cadre de lexploitation des documents. (BO n 7 du 28 aot 2003.) Dans chaque unit, nous avons choisi un fait de langue que nous faisons observer dans son contexte selon une dmarche dobservation raisonne de la langue. Le professeur pourra enrichir ce corpus par dautres noncs, si possible produits en situation au cours de lexploration du document, pour mettre en vidence les invariants dans le fonctionnement de la langue et montrer comment tout nonc est en relation dtroite dpendance avec la situation dnonciation. On sefforcera de toujours relier intimement la forme au sens et dviter les explications abstraites auxquelles on prfrera toujours des mises en situation concrtes. Observe Cette phase dobservation de la langue est mener en classe aprs la lecture du texte et avant les exercices qui permettent des remplois destins fixer les rgles pralablement dcouvertes.
Notre objectif est de dlimiter les concepts clairement par contraste avec dautres structures de la langue anglaise ou les structures du franais. Nous avons utilis les apports de la grammaire nonciative lorsque nous avons pens quelle contribuait rendre la grammaire plus comprhensible. Son principe essentiel est que tout nonc se justifie par le choix de lnonciateur. Il est donc important de faire comprendre aux lves les valeurs des structures afin que leurs propres choix soient le mieux informs possible. Practise Les exercices en contexte permettent une mise en uvre systmatique du point de langue observ dans des phrases en contexte. Ces exercices sont destins principalement au travail la maison. La traduction aide parfois llve prendre conscience des spcificits de la langue quil tudie. Il est aid en cela par une approche contrastive qui lui a permis de reprer ressemblances et diffrences avec le franais. Un travail de traduction permet den affiner les donnes. Il est un moyen efficace pour assurer les connaissances et dissuader llve de calquer une langue sur lautre. Ce dernier comprend que grammaire et lexique sont les deux facettes dun systme de reprsentation et que chaque langue utilise des moyens grammaticaux et lexicaux propres pour exprimer telle ou telle notion. Cette activit mrite rigueur et rflexion; elle est loin de lapproximation bcle dont les lves se satisfont volontiers la fin du cours puisquils ont compris . Cela nous permet aussi de mieux cerner certains aspects de la grammaire en contrastant les deux langues. Action Le jeu propos la fin de la dmarche permet de mettre le point de langue en action, dans une situation de communication ludique.

TEXT FILE 2 Monicas Boots
Manuel p. 20
Friends is an American sitcom (situation comedy) about a group of six friends living New York City. It was created by David Crane and Marta Kauffman and was originally broadcast from 1994 to 2004. Friends was one of the most popular and longest-running sitcoms in television history, gaining tens of millions of fans all over the globe. The show won many awards during its run, including an Emmy Award for Outstanding Comedy Series, and six consecutive Peoples Choice Awards for Favorite Television Comedy Series. The six friends in the series include: Monica, who struggled for success until she became a respected chef; Chandler, who worked in data processing and then advertising; Rachel, a rich spoiled girl who got her first job as a waitress in Central Perk, a coffee house; Phoebe, a strange New Age masseuse and folk/acoustic singer-songwriter; Joey, a soap opera actor who appreciates ladies; Ross, a nerdy but romantic palaeontology professor. 1. This text is the script of a scene from Friends, an American sitcom. Il est probable que certains lves connatront la srie. On les invitera partager leurs informations. 2. SCENE 1. Details concerning the cost of Monicas boots: they are more expensive than the rent she pays/the attitude of the saleswoman shows that they are very expensive. 3. The two reasons why Monica bought these boots: they looked so good and she was irritated by the attitude of the saleswoman. 4. Chandlers reactions: Oh my God! We wont be able to afford food! Yeah well, too bad were gonna have to return them. Chandler is furious and thinks Monica has wasted the money they need for food and rent. Thats why he wants her to return them. 5. SCENE 2. Chandlers remark: You can wear them with shorts on a street corner and earn the money to pay for them. He thinks that the boots make her look like a prostitute. He has probably not forgiven Monica for her extravagance. 6. Monica does not feel comfortable in her boots: she says They hurt so much! and is almost crying with pain. 7. She refuses to give away the boots because she has spent so much on them. 8. SCENE 3. Not to let Chandler know her boots hurt, Monica pretends she is just yawning, then she tries to persuade him not to go to the party without mentioning her pain, finally she finds a false justification for not wearing the boots while she actually suffers. 9. An alternative title: Monica is paying for her sins. On pourra dans un premier temps justifier le titre (She is punished for a silly purchase) puis on orientera la discussion vers lexprience des lves : quels lments interviennent dans leurs propres choix de vtements. 18 Folder 1 Consumer Paradise

1. This picture is an advertisement for Fitnesse, a brand of cereal. It cant be a poster that you can see in the
street because theres a too much text in small print. It must be a magazine advert.
Describe
2. The first thing you see is the name of the product, in dark blue print. Immediately under the title, there is a
slogan, the perfect fit. Then you see a young woman with her hands held upward. Flakes of cereal seem to be springing from her hands. On the right hand-side, the text is rather long but a catch phrase comes in red and white: 99% fat free. At the bottom of the text, a box of Fitnesse comes as a sort of signature. There is no setting, but only a white and blue background.
Analyse
3. The name of the product immediately evokes fitness, which is the general message of the ad. 4. The woman is sitting in an attitude that reminds us of yoga postures. She is smiling and looks serene, happy
and healthy. She is perfectly fit, in her brassiere and white pants. Its almost as if she is levitating.
5. The cereal seems to be blown up in the air, as light as snow flakes. 6. The colours are cool and not aggressive. White symbolizes purity and blue reminds us of the sky or the sea,
both natural elements.

7. The text: the message is that this cereal is healthy, easy and simple. 8. The advertisers message is that this cereal can help you be perfectly fit and happy. The target audience is
young women who want to keep an eye on their shape. The figure on the box (a dancing woman with her arms up) also calls up an image of airy lightness.
Give your opinion
9. This document is effective because all the elements contribute to giving this idea of lightness and fitness
that is announced in the name of the product. Action Comment on an advertisement

In order to make their members obedient, cults use abusive language/use peer pressure. In order to make their members dependent, cults make members donate money. In order to make their members physically weak, cults make people fast or follow special diets. In order to prevent their members from being independent, cults isolate people from families, friends and society. In order to prevent their members from being curious, cults use peer pressure. In order to prevent their members from being individualistic, cults enforce dress codes. In order to prevent their members from being self-assured, cults use confession to destroy ego and reinforce the need for salvation.

Lecturer We have been looking closely at cults that use mind control techniques. I feel it is important to
point out that extreme religions also manipulate believers. For example, lets look at the Puritans who escaped to America in the 17th Century because they were persecuted by the Protestants in England. Student The Pilgrim Fathers? Lecturer Right. They were called the Pilgrim Fathers. They were religious fundamentalists who believed they had direct communication with God. Once they were in New England, they began to enforce their rules very strictly. They declared lots of things illegal: card playing, festivals, theatre no one could have fun. They were a bit like the Spanish Inquisition. When they thought women did something wrong, they accused them of being witches. Student The witches of Salem. Lecturer Yes, the witches of Salem (Salem is in New England). The Puritans just burned these poor women. They were fanatic, intolerant and manipulators just like cults today.

UFO that was going to take them to heaven. Comme pour la comprhension orale, ce travail prliminaire cre un cadre de rfrence qui facilite laccs au document.
Read the whole text
3. The cult was called Heavens Gate and had been founded by Marshall Applewhite and his girl friend Bonnie
Nettles. 39 members committed suicide in 1997.

4. In 1974, Marshall Applewhite and Bonnie Nettles were imprisoned because they were accused of/charged with
possessing stolen credit cards/they were accused of being dishonest/they were charged with being crooks.
5. On their release they resumed their preaching, they started preaching again, they went back to their previous
activity.
6. The cult members were computer programmers by trade. They were not married, they were single (celibate).
They did not smoke and did not drink either. They called themselves monks and also thought they were angels (l. 18-19). 7. These cult members poisoned themselves (they had barbiturate and vodka). They planned their suicide very methodically and two of them remained alive longer (did not kill themselves at the same time) to drape their friends bodies in purple shrouds and clean, tidy up the house. 8. Joyously believing (l.6): it seems they were hopeful and happy to die. They were not afraid of dying/did not fear death/they were looking forward to dying/they could not wait to meet the UFO. They believed they were going to meet a UFO to travel to heaven. 9. Preachers and cult leaders recruit not only nave people but also gullible Internet users. It seems that nave and gullible people are easy preys because they believe everything and anything, they are easily influenced and impressed. They are not able to exert their critical mind/to be critical. 10. Cult leaders are described as charismatic messiahs which means that they know how to impress, persuade and charm people. Their special charm (charisma) enables them to persuade people that they will bring them happiness/offer them a better life. They know how to make people believe them/how to make people trust them/how to make people break from their families to adopt their lifestyle and beliefs. They are so friendly that they make people accept to donate their money/they are so charming that they persuade people to join their groups/they sound so kind and innocent that people accept to go to their meetings They are very good at talking/coaxing/potential members or members into believing they are going to save them, to bring them happiness on earth and in heaven. They know how to lure people into doing what they want, into donating their money to the cult, into joining their communities and leaving their families and friends Le professeur pourra amener les lves utiliser lexpression de la pression sur autrui ou de la persuasion laide des tournures causatives ou des tournures rsultatives (prcis grammatical n 40).

TEXT FILE 2 My Name Is not Esther

Manuel p. 36
p. 18
Fleur Beale, New Zealand teenage fiction writer, is best known for her novel I am not Esther, which has been published worldwide. Fourteen-year-old Kirby Greenlands mother leaves her with unfamiliar relatives in a strange city and leaves New Zealand for two years to help refugees. Her new guardians and their six children belong to a strict fundamentalist Christian sect called the Children of the Faith. They abhor all recreation and any immodesty, devoting themselves to Bible study. They insist that Kirby must leave her old self behind. Kirby soon becomes aware that she is losing her identity and determines to escape. The title I am not Esther comes 30 Folder 2 Manipulation
from Kirbys catchphrase I am not Esther, as this is what her aunt and uncle insist on calling her. Beale is hostile to the behavior of the cultists, not to the people. Though, the cultists appear brutal, largely as a consequence of using Kirbys perspective.
CECR niveau B1 Comprendre les vnements principaux dans un texte narratif. Comprendre, dans un texte rdig dans une langue standard, les descriptions de sentiments ou de souhaits. Comprendre un texte littraire contemporain en prose. 1. She thinks somebody may have misunderstood her name/somebody may have called her a wrong name/she
may have a twin sister and may have been called the wrong name/somebody may have made a mistake.
2. A girl is staying with her uncles family and they have decided to call her Esther instead of Kirby the name
her mother gave her at birth.

3. L. 5/6: A lot of religion on the walls.
L. 13-14: her blond hair scraped back into the hideous plait all the girls wore. L. 16-17: The women of our faith all have biblical names. L. 18- 21: Her aunts face looked polished, no makeup. Her clothes were unbelievable. A long skirt. Dark brown. A blouse, long-sleeved and white, done up to the neck and down to the wrists. Big white apron. Shoes and stockings. My cousins, Rachel and Rebecca, wore stuff exactly like their mother, but their skirts were blue and they wore socks instead of stockings. They all had braids. The family seems deeply religious and dress differently from the people Kirby usually meets/mixes with/is used to. 4. We keep our thoughts turned to the Lord says Kirbys aunt, which means they dont want to be disturbed by worldly things or the world around them or petty things/they want their attention and thoughts to remain focused on God/they dont want to be distracted/they dont want their spirit to wander. 5. L. 8-9: My aunt Naomi put her hands on my shoulders, leaned forward, and kissed me on both cheeks. We welcome you to our family, niece. L. 15 & 27: She smiled at me. L. 23: Aunt Naomi took no notice. Aunt Naomi is very nice to Kirby, she acts in an affectionate way and wants to make her niece feel at ease. She is welcoming yet she does not listen to Kirby/she does not care what Kirby says/She does not pay attention to Kirbys remarks/She ignores what Kirby says. She seems to be determined, stubborn, to be one track-minded. She sticks to her ideas and principles, she does not want to change her mind. She is inflexible, adamant, strong-minded, strong-willed. 6. L. 3-4: I had a name. Why couldnt he use it? Hed never once called me by my name. L. 10: I swallowed and tried to say something. L. 13: the hideous plait. L. 15: I gasped. Esther? I am not Esther, I said. My name is Kirby. L. 18: I stared at her. L. 22: I am not Esther, I repeated. Im Kirby. L. 24: I hugged my arms around my T-shirt. It was my favorite one, black and shabby. Wait! I cried. L. 26: The radio, then, I said desperately. Let me listen to the news! At first Kirby is surprised because her uncle doesnt use her name. She seems to find it somewhat shocking/she resents the fact that her uncle doesnt use her name/she resents her uncle not calling her by her name. As time passes she gets more and more upset because she realizes her relatives lifestyle is extremely different from hers. She finds her cousins and aunt ugly/unattractive. When she realizes they are determined to make her adopt their ways and dress like them she is desperate. She doesnt want to end up being like them. She is attached to her clothes and what they mean to her (her way of life and her previous life with her mum). She gets worried and sad when she realizes she wont be able to know whether her mother is safe where she has gone/she is worried about her mother and her mothers safety and she is mad at the idea of not being able to check if everything is OK where her mother is.
7. Kirby must be a modern, trendy girl who wants to look fashionable and cant understand why her aunt and
cousins are dressed in such an old-fashioned way. Her clothes may be part of her identity/may reflect her identity/she wants to dress like other youngsters and to feel at ease in her clothes. 8. Kirby must have had a free, carefree, easy-going life with her mother. We can suppose she used to enjoy a certain amount of freedom and that she was used to going out with her friends. Kirby and her mother were probably not very religious because she was struck by all the religious items she could see on the walls when she entered her uncles house. From the comparison she makes we can deduce that Kirbys mother probably dresses in a fashionable way and wears make up. Theres a world of difference between her previous lifestyle and her uncle and aunts. Action Role play

Ce premier texte replace lesclavage dans un contexte historique et gographique large. Attention, dans la question 2, remplacer a definition of what a slave is par which peoples were used as slaves. 1. Le questionnement induit un effort de lecture rapide puis de mmoire et entrane donc la mmorisation court terme. 2. Conquered peoples were used as slaves. Slave traders: Egyptians, Greeks, Persians, Romans, and various African nations; then came the Europeans: the Spanish and Portuguese, then the English and Denmark, France and the Netherlands. Number of deported Africans: 25 to 30 million. Dates when slavery was abolished: 1833 in Britain, 1848 in France, 1865 in the USA, 1980 in Mauritania. 3. The slave trade flourished because it provided robust and cheap labour.
2 The Slave Trade

Les lves auront sans doute entendu parler du commerce triangulaire, trait en histoire au collge, et pourront ainsi faire merger des connaissances parfois oublies. 1. Cette question demande un simple reprage des tapes. Ships left British or French ports with goods for African chiefs. These goods were exchanged for slaves. The slaves were packed into slave ships across the Atlantic and sold to plantation owners. The slave-produced goods were shipped back to Britain where they were manufactured or refined and then sold or re-exported. 2. On fera reprer litinraire des bateaux sur une carte du monde. 3. Conditions were terrible. The slaves packed so tightly into the slave ships that they could hardly move. Often they were chained down and allowed little exercise.

Today our lecture is all about Harriet Tubman. Harriet Tubman was born into slavery in Maryland around 1820. She was very strong, physically and mentally. Even at the age of 12, she started fighting for what she believed in. Harriet had horrible marks on her body because every time she did something her master considered wrong, she got hit. Yet, she dreamed about freedom. She believed every man and woman had the right to be free whatever their color. At the age of 25, she married a free African American, John Tubman. She then escaped to Canada because, there, slavery had been abolished. But Harriet did not forget her people. She decided to help other slaves escape. Her route to freedom was called the Underground Railroad. It was not a system of roads or train tracks but it was a network of people. The refugee slaves walked many, many miles at night not to be detected and, thanks to Harriets organization, they found people to look after them along the way. Harriet saved over 300 people before she died at the age of 90. Action Prepare a quiz

Chorus Steal away, steal away, steal away to Jesus, Steal away, steal away home I aint got long to stay here. My Lord calls me, He calls me by the thunder, Trumpet sounds within-a my soul, I aint got long to stay here. Green trees are a-bending, Poor sinners stand a-trembling. The trumpet sounds within-a my soul, I aint got long to stay here. Chorus * Our houses were made of wood and rain would come through the roofs. When it rained, we had to move our bedclothes from one part of the house to the other everything was dirty and muddy. My bed consisted of a board. My pillow consisted of my jacket and my covering was anything I could get. * Every week, we were given some corn, a dozen herrings and two pounds of pork. Some of the boys would eat this up in three days then they had to steal. I do not remember one slave who did not steal some things it was a matter of necessity. I myself did it, to have something to eat I would go along eating a piece of bread and meat, or herring I never sat down at a table to eat. In the summer we got one pair of cotton trousers given us nothing else; every fall, one pair of woollen pantaloons, one woollen jacket, and two cotton shirts. * One of my masters sons remained on the plantation to be an overseer. He would often accuse slaves of having taken so and so. If we denied it, he would whip us. He would be sitting there, looking down upon us, and if he found one of us didnt work enough, he would beat him. I have seen him kick my aunt, an old woman who had raised and nursed him.

This was Americas breathtaking hypocrisy: the land of the free depended on the labour of slaves. Black Americans now want compensation. Try to imagine that you were a member of the Black race. Wouldnt you, at some point, think that somebody owed you something for some of this? When America made its independence, slaves made up almost 20% of the population. The Southern economy depended on their labour. Slaves were seen not as human beings, but as property to be traded, and if necessary whipped into submission. But who wants to pay for generations of Black pain?

It happened for another 100 years after we supposedly were free. Anita Scott runs a nursery in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

TEXT FILE 1 I Couldnt Help It!

Manuel p. 46
p. 12
This text is an extract from a book for juveniles by Ann Petry (1908-1997), a Black writer whose first book, The Street (1946), was the first novel by an African American to sell more than a million copies. Her main interest was to pay a tribute to Black historic figures, like Harriet Tubman or Tituba. She said, Look at them and remember them. Remember for what a long, long time Black people have been a part of America. These women were slaves. I hoped that I had made them come alive, turned them into real people. I tried to make history speak across the centuries in the voices of peopleyoung, old, good, evil, beautiful, ugly. Many historians, though, think that Tituba, who had often been incorrectly portrayed as a Black slave, was in fact an Indian from South America. What everybody agrees on is that Tituba was sold to Samuel Parris, and that her stories and fortune telling were key to the beginnings of the Salem Village hysteria.
COMPREHENSION

1. The painting shows an auction: the slaves standing on the box are being sold to the client who offers the
highest price. Here it is a family (woman, man and baby). They may or may not be sold together. On invitera les lves identifier la situation pour introduire le mot auction et on encouragera les prises de parole propos de cette pratique. 2. Rponse libre. These peoples lives were very hard. Some of them came from Africa, but many were born into slavery, etc.
Read the text
3. The scene takes place in Bridgetown, Barbados, in November, probably at the beginning of the 19th Century. 4. The four peoples names: Tituba, a young slave; John, her husband, also a slave; Mistress Endicott, the
slaves owner; the Reverend Samuel Parris; the man who has bought Tituba; and John, who is not present.
5. Tituba had been bought by Mistress Endicott at the age of 14. She works around the house and has also learnt
to tell fortunes with cards. She married John, whose master had died, at the age of 19. The couple has been married for ten years. They have just been sold and are going to move to Boston, away from the place where they have always lived. 6. Susanna Endicott is a widow. She likes having parties and having her fortune told. She has dark hair. 7. She is very sad: she has been crying a lot (her eyelids were reddened). She is not at all happy about what she has done: she paused and sighed when breaking the news; she speaks in a muffled voice. She is probably nice to her slaves as they like her very much. 8. Tituba thinks her island is like a jewel in the sea; John and Tituba are a happy young couple until they hear the news. He is a fisherman and she does the housework. 9. The relationships are obviously very good. Mistress Endicott let herself be persuaded by Tituba to buy John. Tituba tells her mistress fortunes. Mistress Endicott finds it very hard to break the news. 10. Lots of testimonies show that most slaves had very hard lives. But it was not uncommon to see some slaves who were brought up with their masters children and shared the life of the family, almost as if they were a member of this family. This situation is not uncommon but only concerns a minority.
WORDS
1. a. I couldnt help it; b. This belongs to me; c. She is a widow; d. She can tell fortunes; e. She averted her eyes. 2. a. jewel; b. startled; c. sigh; d. frown; e. muffled.

Transcription
One morning, Tituba and her husband, John, were in the kitchen when their mistress came in. She looked sad and embarrassed. She told Tituba and John that she had sold them because she needed money. So they would have to leave to follow their new master, a minister who was going to live in Boston. They felt very sad because they had been happy with their mistress and they were going to an unknown country. Action Role play

TEXT FILE 2 Is Slavery Behind Us?

Manuel p. 50
p. 18
Mende Nazers happy childhood in the remote Nuba Mountains of Sudan was cruelly cut short when raiders on horseback swept into her village. In this introduction to her book, Slave, she sums up her experience as a slave who has managed to escape to freedom thanks to the help of British journalist and filmmaker Damien Lewis. 1. The picture shows a book cover with a photo of a Black woman, probably the author, Mende Nazer, who tells the true story of a girls lost childhood and her fight for survival. The title shows that the text is a modernday slave story. 2. The narrator is a Black woman born in Sudan and taken into slavery at the age of 12. On fera reprer les tapes de sa vie. 3. The narrator lived first in Sudan and then in Great Britain. 4. The scene takes place in the Nuba mountains one night. There was a raid and the 12-year-old girl ran to the mountain and then was caught by a man who promised to protect her in fact, she was abducted. The purpose of the raiders was to catch young slaves. 5. The man was probably someone who trafficked slaves. 6. The four main steps in the narrators life: a happy childhood in a village, followed by the raid and a while spent waiting in a Khartoum house with other children who were taken away one by one; a long period of six or seven years in another Khartoum house where she was a slave: the mistress made her do the housework and treated her badly, often beating her; one year in a London house where she worked as a domestic she was also a slave, never had a day off and did not speak English; the rest of her life; she is free and studying to become a nurse. 7. Now she is free. She is full of hope and looks forward to the future. Until then, she had been a slave. 42 Folder 3 Masters and Slaves
8. She met some people who helped her by putting pressure on the authorities. We can assume that some people
helped her (she could not even speak English). The pressure mentioned could be that of her masters and their colleagues.

OPPOSITION : expression dune contestation non violente, pouvant se traduire dans des structures politiques et sociales institutionnalises. REBELLION : expression dune contestation plus radicale, voire violente, mais aussi reflet des engagements humains au cours de lhistoire. (BO n 7 du 28 aot 2003.) Ce folder aborde lopposition et la rvolte des adolescents vis--vis de la famille et des valeurs de la socit : quelle rvolte, comment sexprime-t-elle? Il explore, parfois avec humour, les aspects de cette rbellion au travers de tmoignages rels ou fictifs qui devraient toucher nos lves. La musique est un aspect important de cette rvolte.

1 The Invention of the Teenager

1. Four words referring to people between 13 and 20: teenagers, kids, youths, the younger generation. 2. Teenagers started being important in the mid-20th Century, when they started having enough money to make
an economic impact, buying rock n roll records in exploding numbers/when they started consuming/when it became clear that they were consumers/when they joined the consumer society. 3. Todays young generation is the most interracial, cross-cultural, and inter-ethnic of history. 4. The accessories that are associated with Goths: black clothing, nail polish and eyeliner, black boots, studs, and zippers.
2 Rebellion in Music
1. Psychedelic music incorporates jazz, folk, and R&B.
Punk Rock is loud, has a particular rhythm and radical lyrics. Reggae has peaceful and anti-violent lyrics. It is a rhythmic form of Jamaican music. Techno is a form of electronic dance music. It incorporates electro, New Wave, Funk and futuristic fiction themes. 2. Teenagers want to look different, to stand out against mainstream society, to assert their personality and ideals. They also want to express their defiance toward authority and sometimes their discouragement. 3. Psychedelic fans adopt different attitudes, hair styles, and costumes, with bright colours, fabrics and patterns. The Punks wear T-shirts with swastikas and offensive slogans, sunglasses, leather jackets to make up the total grunge look. Reggae fans wear dreadlocks, wigs, big jewellery, and flashy clothing. 4. These musical genres all reflect the defiance of young people toward authority.

Transcription
As most of you probably know, a rave or rave party is an all-night dance event where DJs play electronic dance music and rave music. But how many of you know that the expression rave was originally used by Jamaican people in London during the 1960s? Raves as we think of them today began in the late 1980s. They were just weekend parties occurring outside cities, sometimes in old farm houses, sometimes in warehouses. They were signs of rebellion against commercial radios, nightclubs, and popular music. A very small number of people contributed to the production and promotion of the event. The organisers made and distributed fliers and posted online bulletins, but the promotion was mostly by word-of-mouth. Raves began to expand into a global phenomenon in the 1990s. And, by the mid-1990s, major corporations were sponsoring events, and recuperating the movements that were started by rebellious teens. Today, raves are making a comeback yet again.

The boy can be revolted about his parents attitude: they may be too strict, too demanding, too nosy. They ask him to help, they make him cut the grass/mow the lawn, wash the car, tidy up his room, do some odd jobs round the house. They may spy on him and his friends, or they may prevent him from going out with his friends or from inviting them. They may criticize his way of dressing or the music he listens to.

3. Nicks parents are divorced. Nick seems to spend the week with his mother and the week-end with his dad
who gives his mum an allowance amounting to $583 a month, which he complains about/he resents/he is cross about. His mum seems to be very authoritative and to boss her husband around. His dad seems to be unreliable and rash. Quotes: My mother gives people drivers tests at the Department of Motor Vehicles. She used to keep Dad up-to-date on all the rules he was violating as he drove along. I came back from two miserable days in my dads custody. Mom gave him one of her high-volume diatribes. He screeched into the driveway, blasting the horn. Why? said Dad, because, pal, Id like to have something to show for my $583 a month in child support. 4. Itll soon be his birthday. My birthday is coming up soon. One more week to my birthday. 5. Nick blames his mother for always criticizing her husband and being partly responsible for their divorce (l. 4 and 5).

He blames her for telling him he spends too much time at the computer/for suggesting he should go out instead of working or playing on his computer/for saying he should have some fun with his friends (l. 31 and 32). He criticizes her for shouting at him, for asking him to be polite/to stop arguing, to be more respectful. Nick blames his dad for not planning anything special for him, for asking him to work/to cut the grass/to help him with the gardening (l. 21 and 22). He criticizes his dad for not really loving him, for not caring for him, for being mean, for being an unpleasant person (l. 24). 52 Folder 4 Teens in Revolt

Im a 19-year-old freshman at Belhaven College in beautiful Jackson, MS, where I am currently 56 Folder 4 Teens in Revolt
majoring in creative writing and minoring in history. The heroine, Sammie, wants to become a rock star. Although her parents worry about her decision, they let her have her own way and try to become a professional rock musician. A few years later, she comes back home depressed because her dream has not come true. She decides to go back to the school where she studied music. Her ex-music teacher offers her a six-month contract and warns her that she had better not ruin the reputation of the school. She is both surprised and delighted when she realizes her first student is an admirer of one of her albums. It cheers her up and makes her look to the future more confidently. Lentranement la lecture cursive prconis par les programmes invite les lves une lecture moins analytique. 1. The girl in the picture must have chosen to become a musician. Her parents may have felt surprised or worried (it is a hard job and few people succeed and make a career of it). Her parents may have told her that they disapproved of her decision, that she should opt for a more secure job. They may have understood her and let her try, knowing that we learn through experience. They may have flown into a temper and said she was driving them mad. 2. She told her parents she intended to settle in California and become a rock star (l. 4). She argued that she was a good musician and that she had the business qualifications that would help her manage her career (l. 14 to 17). 3. Sammies father said with a laugh of suppressed panic. Sammies father was a high school principal. But he and Sammies mother were also a couple of old ex-hippies. Herbert, her father, glanced at his wife with a look of desperation. As any responsible parents should, he prayed that his only child would choose any other career more secure than that of a rock n roller. 4. They agree to let her go and have her own way provided she doesnt smoke, drink or get pregnant. 5. The scene takes place five years after Samantha left home to be a musician. She is back home after failing to become a pop star and to make a living out of her music. Her dream has not worked out. She is disappointed but she has grown up. She feels she has wasted five years of her life. 6. She may have recorded a few albums but sold very few of them. She may have found it hard to sell her albums, to get people to know her band. She must have tried to find places where to give concerts. She may have had very small audiences. It must have been difficult for her to make money. She may have slept on the streets, she may have slept rough. 7. She looks more strict, more conventional because she is looking for a job as a music teacher with Eastman Music School. Mrs Eastamn is her ex-music teacher (l. 58 to 62). 8. Now, she wants to get a job, to be hired by a music school. She doesnt want to be self-employed any more. 9. Mrs Eastman, who is going to retire, offers her a six-month contract if she does not ruin the reputation of the school (l. 82 to 87). 10. Sammie has lost her enthusiasm. She accepts the job knowing that Mrs Eastman cant stand rock music and that she will have to forget about it. She has lost her self-confidence and sounds very humble. 11. Her first pupil has registered with the school because she has heard of Sammie, she knows one of her albums and loves it. She is a fan of Sammies and she wants Sammie to teach her to play rock music. 12. Somebody knows her and appreciates her music. This cheers her up, gives her more confidence in herself: she is not the failure she thought she was, she can go back to her passion. The future looks brighter.

Before starting todays lecture on the legacy of the Civil Rights Movement in the 60s, I want to take you back in time. Long ago, in a Birmingham, Alabama, department store, a Black woman was shopping for a nice party dress with her 7-year old little girl. A white saleslady told the mother that her daughter could use the regular changing room to try her dress she would have to use the storage room. The mother refused saying, My daughter will try on this dress in a dressing room, or I wont spend my money here. That little girl was Condoleeza Rice who went on to become the famous African-American politician she is today. 60 Folder 5 Civil Rights
Her success is a legacy of the militant actions in the 1960s. Blacks are definitely better off today than they were then. The Black middle-class is expanding, more and more Blacks own their houses or their firms. However, the battle is not won. The poverty rate among Blacks still is three times the rate for Whites and Black Americans earn 30% less than their White counterparts. There is still much work left to be done.

In the Ghetto is a song written by American singer/songwriter Mac Davis and made popular by rock and roll singer Elvis Presley. It is the narrative story of a young boy who grows up in the Chicago ghetto, steals and fights and who is eventually shot and killed. There were initial fears that the song would damage Elvis reputation for being politically unbiased, but Elvis loved the song and recorded it. After finally achieving a master take, Elvis claimed from then on, he would only do songs that he believed in.

They might say it is very hard to be so poor: people live close together; they fight and struggle to survive; perhaps they are forced steal money and food. 2.

This is an article about Ruby Bridges. Here is what she says on looking at a photo of herself going to school surrounded by armed marshals and a photo of herself 40 years later: The little girl on the left is me in November 1960, walking up the steps of William Frantz Public School in New Orleans, the first Black student at the formerly all-White elementary school. Thats me now, on the right, married, a mother of four. Forty years separate those pictures. Forty years that brought incredible change in our country, forged in the crucible of the civil rights movement and the battle to end segregation. Forty years that changed me as well. I was born in Mississippi in 1954, the oldest child of Abon and Lucille Bridges. That year the United States handed down its landmark decision ordering the integration of public schools. Not that I knew anything about school at the time. What I knew and loved was growing up on the farm my paternal grandparents sharecropped. It was a very hard life, though. My parents heard there were better opportunities in the city. We moved to New Orleans, where my father found work as a service station attendant, and my mother took night jobs to help support our growing family. As I got a bit older, my job was to keep an eye on my younger brothers and sister, which wasnt too difficult. Except for church and the long walk to the all-black school where I went to kindergarten, our world didnt extend beyond our block. But that was all about to change. Under federal court order, New Orleans public schools were finally forced to desegregate. In the spring of 1960 I took a test, along with other Black kindergarteners in the city, to see who would go to an integrated school come September. That summer my parents learned Id passed the test and had been selected to start first grade at William Frantz Public School. You can find out how hard it was for her in the article on page 77.
COMPREHENSION
Before you read
1. The little girl is Black. She is very smartly dressed and, judging by the title of the text, this could be her first
day at school. She is surrounded by soldiers or policemen officials of some sort. We can see the word nigger written on the wall. There is also red on the wall it looks like someone has thrown a tomato. 2. She is perhaps going to a school for Whites only. They are afraid she might get attacked. 3. It means someone has been thrown something at her.
Read the text
4. The little girl is Ruby Bridges and it is her first day at a White school. 5. The Whites are angry, they dont want integration and are shouting and screaming their displeasure. 6. The unthinkable. 7. Isolation hurts Ruby more than anything else. She was supported by her teacher Barbara Henry. 8. She helped create the first desegregated school in the Deep South. 9. The strange thing is that her former school is now a mostly Black, poor school. 10. She is very realistic. She thinks we must always be careful it doesnt happen again. 11. It is a very poor school where the children fight.

Transcription
Ruby Bridges was the first Black child to attend a White school in Louisiana in November1960. Four marshals carrying guns had to escort her to protect her from the families anger. The only person to support her was her White teacher. Bridges became the symbol of desegregation in the South. But ironically her former school is now mostly Black and it is plagued by inner-city problems. Ruby, now a volunteer and activist, warns that racism is still a threat in the US. Action Make a speech

TEXT FILE 2 I Have a Dream

Manuel p. 80
p. 18
In 1950s America, the equality of man envisioned by the Declaration of Independence was far from a reality. People of color Blacks, Hispanics, Orientals were discriminated against in many ways, both overtly and covertly. The 1950s were a turbulent time in America, when racial barriers began to come down due to Supreme Court decisions and an increase in the activism of Blacks fighting for equal rights. Martin Luther King, Jr., a Baptist minister, was a driving force in the push for racial equality in the 1950s and the 1960s. In 1963, King and his staff focused on Birmingham, Alabama. They marched and protested nonviolently, raising the ire of local officials who used water cannons and police dogs on the marchers, whose ranks included teenagers and children. The bad publicity and break-down of business forced the white leaders of Birmingham to concede to some anti-segregation demands. Thrust into the national spotlight in Birmingham, where he was arrested and jailed, King organized a massive march on Washington, DC, on August 28, 1963. On the steps of the Lincoln Memorial, he evoked the name of Lincoln in his I Have a Dream speech, which is credited with mobilizing supporters of desegregation and prompted the 1964 Civil Rights Act. The next year, King was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. 1. Difficulties and frustrations relate to the situation of the Black community. 2. 2. He wants his people to rebel so they can live as equals. 3. He wants his children to live in a country where people will not judge them for the color of their skin. 4. He wants the state of Alabama to be a place where White and Black children will live together like brothers and sisters without noticing their color. 3. They are ready to pray together and to go to prison together if they know that one day they will be free. 4. They must do everything he suggested and grant equality to the people. 5. He includes other religions like Jews, Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics. 6. He talks a lot about Prayer, faith, Gods children, he thanks God, he quotes from the Bible. 7. He uses repetitions, rhymes, and a rhythmic pattern.

1. Rachel was born in northern California; Jackie was born in southern California (in Pasadena, California). 2. Discriminatory measures mentioned : d. They had to drink from a fountain for Blacks only; f. They could not
use the swimming pool everyday.

3. Black soldiers did not have the same accommodations and facilities as White soldiers. When Jack applied to
become an officer, the army initially refused his application.

4. No, he was not discriminated at UCLA. 5. One day, they got a letter saying that Jack would be shot from the stands. 6. What did they ask for the first time? They asked for some measures to be taken to protect Jack. 7. Jackies hero was Martin Luther King, Jr. 8. Jack admired M.L. King for his non-violent protest and his faith in all that America promised. Transcription Did you experience racial discrimination? Did Jackie?
Well, where I was born and raised, in northern California, discrimination was not too bad. But when I went south for the first time in 1947, I was shocked. I had to use a drinking fountain for Negroes only; or a Negro womens bathroom. Where Jackie grew up, in Pasadena, California, discrimination was even more humiliating. For instance, he could not go to the swimming pool, except on a day for Negroes.
Did Jackie experience discrimination in the army?
Oh, yes. In the 1940s the armed forces were segregated. Black soldiers did not have the same accommodations and facilities to use as White soldiers. And when Jack applied to become an officer, the army initially refused his application.
Was there discrimination on the college teams he joined?
No, not at UCLA, fortunately. But some southern teams had vicious tactics.
What was the worst experience you faced?
From time to time we received hate mail which we just ignored. But, one day, we received a letter saying that Jack would be shot from the stands in a particular city. That was scary. We asked for some measures to be taken to protect Jack. It was hard to believe that one could be killed because of ones race.
A lot of people admired Jackie. Who was Jackies hero?
In the early 1940s, Joe Louis, boxings world heavyweight champion, was our hero because we felt he was fighting for respect, opportunity, and our place in America. Later on Jack met Martin Luther King, Jr. in the early 1960s, when he began organizing for the Civil Rights Movement in the South. Jack admired Dr. King for his non-violent protest and his faith in all that America promised. Adapted from http://content.scholastic.com

Theres one thing we can all agree on: too many people die because of drugs. Though using drugs to change the way one feels has been known among men since very ancient times, it can lead to serious physical and mental problems. What is really bad is that tobacco, alcohol, cannabis or heroin can become addictive this means that, even if people decide to stop, they may find its very hard, harder than they thought. Addicts deprived of their drugs can become anxious and depressed. Drug addicts crave for the drug they take which means they desperately need to take it. They have the impression that, if they use the drug, all their problems will go away. Drug abuse can have terrible consequences, and giving up can be an unpleasant and difficult process a good reason for not experimenting with drugs in the first place. Next week we will talk about legalizing drugs. Is that a good way to stop dealers selling drugs? Action Prepare a quiz

May be two bars a day thats 200 grams. Anna Well, thats over three pounds a week. Much too much. The average consumption in the US is 11 pounds annually and many doctors say that is too much. Eat two small squares every night. Or you could go and do some exercise to burn the calories after eating chocolate. Or you could eventually Johnny Thank you Anna. These are very useful suggestions. * Johnny Bill hello Bill I believe you are also a doctor. Do you have a suggestion for Kathy? Bill Yeah! She should realize the effects of chocolate on her body are not good. Chocolate can cause migraines, acne, obesity, heart problems, dental cavities, all your teeth can fall out. Johnny (cuts him off abruptly) Do you agree with Bill, Anna? Anna Well, not really. Chocolate also contains a chemical which gives you an energy boost, and reduces anxiety and pain.

Dennis played every day to upgrade his character in the online role-playing game and he neglected his family and his job. Game addiction is proliferating and has become a serious issue. In fantasy games, people interact with each other and get a sense of belonging. In some cases, the game provides the only friends they have. What is good is that people can safely experiment opportunities that they dont have in real life. Action Act out a conversation

CECR niveau B1 Comprendre les vnements principaux dans un texte narratif. Comprendre dans un texte rdig dans une langue standard, les descriptions de sentiments ou de souhaits. 1. Apparently a young man is drinking but saying he can quit anytime, which means he is convinced he can get
rid of his addiction/he can stop/quit/give up drinking when he wants.

2. He has a problem with alcohol: he is a heavy drinker. 3. His addiction makes him do stupid things. He cant control himself, for example he steals, sells his own
things, fights, and even has sex with girls he doesnt know.
4. He is ashamed of himself and feels sorry because his family have lost their confidence in him, they dont
believe him any more. They also seem to reject him. Moreover he is scared because he can be dangerous for himself and for others. He feels he is a failure. 5. Thomas says he knows he has a problem with alcohol and claims he can stop drinking anytime/whenever he feels like it but he adds he just doesnt want to because alcohol makes him feel good. He is under the impression he can try out new things and be different from what he is the rest of the time. 6. In paragraph 1, the journalist aims at showing that Thomas is a very bright attractive young man with everything going for him. We feel surprised when we read later on how foolishly he behaves when he is under the effect of alcohol. 7. Personal answer. Suggestions: he wants to forget his worries and everyday life, he wants to experiment with different sensations, he tries to make his life more exciting, maybe he wants to show off or he is so deeply unhappy that he does so to feel better and more powerful Action Write a letter

Dans le cas prsent, il nous a sembl que le document principal que nous avions choisi ncessitait des rfrences culturelles que nos lves nont peut-tre pas en raison de leur ge. La prsence du premier document, le Marlborough Cowboy, nous semble donc constituer un passage oblig pour accder au message de la publicit principale, Second Hand Smoke Kills. Le professeur pourra envisager de mettre les lves par deux ou en groupes pour la prparation, surtout en dbut danne, mais lenregistrement propos dans laction se fera individuellement de faon ce que le professeur puisse valuer la production orale de chaque lve. On pourra faire prcder cette sance dune initiation la prparation de notes (et non de phrases entires) et on pourra recourir des logiciels tels que Audacity (tlchargeable gratuitement) pour que les lves senregistrent. 3. The cowboy is synonymous with virility, manliness, strength and freedom, qualities that potential customers crave for/are eager to have. 6. The mans bending his head and holding his hat as if he were wondering what to do. Actually he seems to be at a loss what to do next or to find it hard to understand what killed his horse. 7. It is an advertisement that denounces the dangers of passive smoking. 8. The colours are far more vivid in the large document maybe to stress the seriousness and acuteness of the problem and of the cowboys feelings. The majesty of the setting stands in sharp contrast with the horror of the scene and the cowboys hopelessness and despair. 9. It means that the horse inhaled the cowboys smoke and that it killed it. The cowboys tobacco addiction is responsible for the horses death and we can wonder if the man was aware he was endangering/harming/ impairing his horses health. Action Comment on the pictures

Des statistiques sur les enfants qui travaillent travers le monde. 1. Children haul water, collect firewood and work in the house. Some work in agriculture and on construction sites, others work as domestic servants, as prostitutes and soldiers. 2. The students must read the figures aloud. 3. 175 million children work in agriculture; about 500 million children live in Asia. 4. Many of the children live in poorer parts of the world.
2 Four Myths about Child Labour

On entend souvent les mmes remarques concernant les enfants qui travaillent. On pense que cest lapanage des pays en voie de dveloppement par exemple. Ceci nest pas toujours vrai. 1. dangerous: hazardous continue: last longer becomes: grows into place where people work in poor conditions: sweatshops football: soccer hurt: harm. 2. Children in agriculture are mostly from migrant families because the work is seasonal and their families are constantly moving around. 3. Child labour can make poverty last longer as a working child grows into an adult who will only get a poorly paid job. 4. Boycotting can have long term consequences by stopping the people in developing countries form working. The countries will not be able to sell their products.

Today, I want you to look at what you are wearing. Yes, go on, look at your clothes and check each others labels. Where were your T-shirts made? Student voices: China India Mauritius So, no one is wearing something made in the USA. Why not? Because you bought it cheaply. Im sure you dont buy expensive T-shirts. I dont either! Do you ever wonder why your T-shirt was so cheap? Its because wages are so low in developing countries that most manufacturers have moved their factories over there. Your T-shirts and mine were probably made by 12-year-old children who never had a chance to go to school. 84 Folder 7 Children at Work
In these countries, children are protected by government legislation for example, theyre supposed to get time off to go to school, and theyre supposed to work a maximum of 35 hours a week. But in reality, they work a 60-hour week. They are not paid any overtime and, in some cases, they are not even paid the basic minimum wage. As for medical care forget it!

Many youngsters in the UK work in the summer holidays to earn some extra money. Jason is no exception and enjoys working in his burger bar on Boscombe Pier, near Bournemouth. He wants to go to university and thinks he should help his parents to pay for his studies. All universities charge 3,000 a year for the studies payable once you have finished your studies and have started earning 15,000 a year. Jason is not just doing it for the money. He also feels he is learning to work in teams and relishes the responsibility he is entrusted with. He hopes to have a successful career in forensics once he finishes his studies.

Six oclock in the morning and its still dark in February. Most of us expect to find a newspaper and a pint of milk on the doorstep, not thinking how they got there. Theyve probably been delivered by children like Vince in the Rossendale Valley. But children are not supposed to be out working before 7 in the morning, its against the law. After school, 14-year old Scott sits down with his family for tea. At 6:40, a neighbouring farmer picks him up to take him a short distance to his farm. Scott helps milk the cows for an hour and a half every evening, 7 days a week. He gets paid 15. Do you know its illegal to employ children after 7 in the evening? (Rires) Im serious. No, I dont know, I dont know anything about that. For his part, Scott isnt bothered by the rules either. Do you feel exploited? No, not at all! And his mother positively encourages him to work. No, really it keeps him off the streets. At least hes doing something responsible. It all sounds quite reasonable. Scott enjoys work, his mother approves, so does it matter if children like Scott and the boys on the paper rounds and the milk floats are illegally employed? How many of you work? Any thing at all? Anything at all, you all work, right. A recent report says they are over 2 million in Britain so-called hidden army of child workers, of whom a quarter around the twelve, and a third admits that their school work suffers. If you calculate the number of hours that Britains children are expected to spend at school, the number of hours the government want them to spend on their homework, and the number of hours paid work they are allowed to do, it adds up to a 60 hours a week. The critics say something must give, and it should be the paid work.

Geeta Pandey is the New Delhi correspondent for the BBC. She is often to be heard broadcasting on the radio and television. She brings up an interesting issue here: do the children working at such a young age really want us to interfere and stop them from working? She talks about the terrible conditions of children working in unhealthy conditions and says that even if we want them to stop, they definitely do not want to stop they need the money and sometimes their homes are even worse than the places where they work.
COMPREHENSION
Before you read
1. These children probably come from very poor families, otherwise they would not be working in such difficult
conditions.
2. This situation could be explained by their parents lack of work and money. 3. The text probably explains that, even though their work conditions are so bad, the children dont want to stop
as they need the money.

Read the text
4. Number of children: 500 were rescued, aged: 5 to 14, place: Delhi, occupation: child labourers.
500 child labourers in Delhi, aged between 5 and 12 years of age, were rescued by the authorities.
5. Personal answer. 6. The paradox is that these children do not want to be rescued. They are happier working than living in the
shelter.
7. The children are worried about their clothes and belongings that they left behind them in the factories where
they were working.

8. The sentence about Mohammad implies that he is much older than he looks. This could be because he is
undernourished. 88 Folder 7 Children at Work
9. His working conditions are extremely hard and he earns very little money. He is a good example of the
paradox explained above as he would rather go on working as his family count on him for money.
10. The situation is probably the same all over the world. If childrens families are too poor and their homes are
not good they might prefer working in a factory to living at home or in a shelter.
WORDS
1. a. you must help rescue them.
b. child labour concerns an estimated 246 million children. c. in a factory. d. unhealthy diets. e. poorly educated. f. no home. 2. a. embroidery; b. crippling; c. rupee; d. earnings; e. depend on; f. handicraft

Transcription
My name is Lisa Rahman. Im 19 years old and I live in Dhaka, in Bangladesh. My family is very poor. I had to start working in the garment factories when I was 10 years old. I never had a chance to go to school. For the last three years I have worked at the Shah Makhdum factory. We make clothes for Disney. My salary is 1,750 taka a month, that is to say less than $30 and no raise in three years! We work seven days a week, with no regular holiday. At most we get one day off a month. Conditions at the factory are very harsh. There is constant pressure for us to work faster despite the heat. I must do 200 pieces an hour. If we fail to meet the targets the supervisors call us names and yell at us, or sometimes they push us. We are not allowed to talk. If we are caught they hit us. We get only two breaks in the entire day, one hour for lunch and a 10-minute break at 8:00 p.m. when the company gives us a banana and a piece of bread. Even if you have not finished eating you have to rush back to work. They only allow us to use the bathroom once or twice a day. We are forced to work till 10:00 or 11:00 p.m. every day. The people at Disney do not know about our working conditions because the company keeps two sets of time cards. The one for Disney shows that we finish work at 6:00 p.m. and that we have every Friday off. But the real time card shows us working seven days a week until 10:00 p.m. or later. And we are not paid for these hours! And if they say we made a mistake, they deduct more money from our wages. What we want is to see our rights respected and to be treated as human beings. I wish I could live with a little dignity. Adapted from Testimony of Lisa Rahman Shah Makhdum Factory, September 2002, www.mirrorimage.com/iqbal/updates/2-03update.html
SPEAKING
Subject 1
Last summer, I decided to do some babysitting. I really needed some money to buy a new computer. I chose baby sitting as it left me free to work on my school work during the day and just took up a few nights a week. I even thought I would be able to work or watch films whilst looking after my neighbors babies. How wrong I was; my neighbor had one little boy aged two and little girl twins aged four. The little boy was adorable and very good but the twins were terrible. I couldnt control them and they broke everything in the house. I ended up not earning any money at all as I had to pay for all the broken stuff. I never bought my computer.
Subject 2
I am horrified by the working conditions of children in both the developed and developing worlds. It is not right that children should have to work such long hours. Children should be at school learning subjects all children should know. If they dont go to school they will never get the qualifications they need to earn a good living when they grow up. All countries should get together and defend the rights of children. I used to think it was a good idea to boycott goods made by children but today I realize that this is not helpful. The whole country suffers from boycotts. There must be another way. I think teenagers should go and work in developing countries and teach the young children. This is only one solution.
Subject 3
In the photo we can see children demonstrating. We know they are demonstrating because they are holding up banners saying that they want to go to school. This means that they are probably working and are not allowed to go to school and get a decent education. One banner is asking for justice this could be referring to both education and fair pay. Another banner says they want less hospital. We can imagine that they live and work in such terrible conditions that they get very ill. Perhaps they dont have enough to eat and spend a lot of time in hospital. This photo was taken a long time ago, fortunately the situation is much better today.

C.U. Snacks. Judy How did you start C.U. Snacks? Brandon C.U. Snacks was actually started the business plan was started for a business plan competition offered to Columbia University Center for Career Education. So, we designed a business plan, we submitted it into the competition, and we were prize-winner in the competition. Then Columbia University gave us a $1,000 grant to continue developing the idea. Judy And have you made money from it, Brandon? Brandon Me, personally, not yet, but actually we are breaking records every night. Last night actually, yeah, we did have a ton of deliveries and the night before that as well. The last two nights weve had the most deliveries we have ever had. Judy Really how many was that? Brandon In the range of 40 40 orders in a night. Judy And is that hard to manage? Brandon Its very difficult. The challenge is having the right amount of delivery people on staff because, if we are particularly slow, the delivery people can get bored and they dont have anything to do and it kind of it hurts morale. Judy How do you get around? Brandon One of the great things about the university and about this business plan is that weve got a market of about five to ten thousand students. And they are all within a five block radius so really all we need is bicycles and we can get to any building on campus in less than fifteen minutes. One thing that we have over the other local restaurants that deliver is that we have our whole menu on line and people can communicate with us over the internet and, especially at a college like Columbia University, the students are always on the Internet. They much prefer using the Internet than any other source of communication. 94 Folder 7 Children at Work

1 British Labourers
Ce texte traite de lindustrialisation de la Grande-Bretagne et de la naissance dun proltariat urbain. 1. The turning point in the history of workers was in the early 19th Century, when Britain became the first industrial power thanks to the invention of machines and the building of factories and mills. 2. Before that, people worked either on farms or in small workshops. After that, they left the countryside to work in factories and mills where they were exploited (they worked very long hours in horrible conditions). 3. Dissatisfied workers could not do anything because they had no right to vote, and no political power to exert pressure on their bosses and change the system.
2 British Labour Movements

Ce second document montre la prise de conscience des travailleurs et les rvoltes ouvrires qui ont conduit la naissance du syndicalisme et aux actions de revendication massives du XXe sicle. 1. Machine breaking riots: des meutes au cours desquelles des machines ont t dtruites ; wage reductions: rductions de salaires ; cotton mills: fabriques de coton; trade unions: syndicats; child labour: le travail des enfants. 2. The workers salaries had been cut down/decreased; as a result, they broke the machines to express their discontent and anger. 3. In those days conducting actions was very risky for workers. In 1811, 23 men were executed and 13 transported to Australia. In Manchester, in August 1919, the authorities dispersed the demonstrators, killing 11 and injuring 400. 4. The 1926 strike was important because 1,8 million workers decided to support the miners and joined their strike for nine days.

7. False: they are often dealt with in a very strict way. 8. True: air controllers who went on strike in 1981 lost their jobs, they were fired. Transcription
We do not think of the Unions as being strong in the USA. However, there was a time when they played an important part. The first union was formed in Philadelphia by shoemakers in 1794. The IWW, Industrial Workers of the World, which was to be one big union for all workers, was founded in Chicago in 1905. The first African-American union was the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, founded in 1925 and later known for its civil rights activism. In 1868, workers went on strike to demand the 8-hour day, but employers refused and stuck to the 10-hour day. The 8-hour day was finally adopted by Henry Ford in 1926to reduce overproduction and unemployment. In fact the motor car industry has always played in important part in the evolution of working conditions. Cost-of-living raises were first introduced by General Motors in 1948. Strikes have often been dealt with in a very strict way. For example, in 1981, President Reagan fired all of the 11,600 air controllers who had been on strike. Action Make up a timeline

Roberto Semler transformed Semco, the company his father left him, into a strictly democratic firm. He travels the world telling people about his new way of running companies. Listen to his interview to find out why there are no unions in it. Interviewer Roberto, you dont believe in hierarchies do you? Roberto No, I do not. I think they are destructive. Everybody should have power in a company. We are stronger when we are equal. Interviewer But isnt that just a Utopia? Roberto No, it is not. When I took over Semco from my father 12 years ago, it was a traditional company. There was a traditional hierarchy and lots of rules. But today our factory workers are all equally responsible. They set their own production schedules and even stay longer in the evenings to make sure they meet them. They help redesign the products they make and formulate the marketing plans. They even elect their bosses and determine business strategy. And they set their own salaries. Interviewer They set their own salaries! But dont they ask for enormous amounts? Roberto Of course not. Everyone knows what everyone earns they all know what profit the company makes. Everybody, even messengers and cleaning people can read all the financial information about Semco and talk about it together. Interviewer I believe you involve all the workforce in important decision-making, dont you? Roberto Yes, even for truly big decisions, everyone at Semco gets a vote. Interviewer I was surprised to see there was no receptionist when I came here today. Roberto We dont have receptionists. We dont think they are necessary. We dont have secretaries either, or personal assistants. Everyone at Semco, even top managers, welcomes visitors, stands over photocopiers, sends faxes, types letters, and dials the phone. We dont have executive dining rooms or reserved parking spaces. Its all part of running a natural business. Interviewer So there are no privileges at Semco?

COMPREHENSION
Before you read
1. In the picture on page 122 we can see a lot of animals protesting and demanding happiness, freedom,
leisure and milk. There is no doubt they are deprived of those rights and cant stand it any more. They have had enough of their life and of the way they are treated. In the picture on the right hand side we see the same animals at a meeting. They seem to be listening to a pig. We dont exactly know what the pig is saying but we can imagine he is giving them orders or urging them to revolt, to rebel against their master, a human being. 2. Considering the title and the cartoons the text must be about the rebellion the animals are staging, the plot they are organizing. 3. The pig, Old Major, must be trying to convince them that they are exploited, that their rights are flouted and that they should not accept this any longer. He is talking them into revolting against the farmer and into requesting better living conditions.
Read the text
4. The three adjectives: miserable, laborious, and short; the two nouns: misery and slavery. Old Major explains
that they are hardly fed and that they are made to work very hard. As soon as they get too old to work they are killed. They cant be happy. 5. According to him, Man is responsible for their problems. 6. According to Old Major, the main difference between Man and animals is that Man consumes without producing: he cant do anything without the help and work of the animals on the farms. Old Majors aim/intention is to name a culprit and to make the other animals aware of their unacceptable living conditions/of their plight. 7. He tries to get the animals to rebel. 8-9. The problem explained 1 : lines 8 to 11. Proofs against the culprit 4 : lines 25 to 27. No natural causes 2 : lines 15 to 18. Solution 5 : line 30. The culprit 3 : line 22. 100 Folder 8 United We Stand!
10. We could answer: You are exaggerating because Man cleans your stables, feeds you, gives you water to
drink/quenches your thirst, looks after you. You are usually well looked after because you are a source of revenue/you bring money or provide man with meat, milk. Besides, what work do pigs do? They are lazy animals that spend their time sleeping or sniffing/scratching the soil Old Major you are right, it is true that man exploits you all and makes you work very hard. 11. Old Major represents Karl Marx. Old Major expresses himself in a powerful way and inspires people. Old Major also represents the generation who were not happy with the old regime and inspired the younger generations to rebel against the regime under which they were living.

TEXT FILE 2 There Is Power in a Union

Manuel p. 126
p. 18
Stephen William Bragg (born December 20, 1957), known as Billy Bragg, is an English musician renowned for his blend of folk, punk-rock, and protest music, and his lyrics dealing with political as well as romantic themes. He has been active for over 20 years, and has collaborated with many other leading musicians. In 2006 he published a book, The Progressive Patriot, in which he expanded on an argument he has long defended namely, that he feels English socialists can reclaim patriotism from the right. He also supports Scottish independence. Bragg often plays and speaks at the Tolpuddle Martyrs festival (see Grammar File). He is an outspoken opponent of fascism, racism, bigotry, sexism and homophobia and a supporter of a multi-racial Britain. Le professeur renverra les lves aux vnements sociaux ou politiques dont ils peuvent avoir entendu parler. Il pourra emmener ses lves faire des recherches sur des conflits qui ont lieu dans les pays anglophones dans les dernires dcennies (grve des mineurs, poll tax riots, marches contre labolition de la chasse courre, manifestations contre la guerre en Iraq, etc.). On encouragera les lves mobiliser ce quils ont vu dans les autres pages du folder. On les incitera utiliser les expressions du reproche. 1. The text is a song. 2. We are going to read about demonstrations, protests, about workers expressing/voicing their discontent and criticizing either their boss or the government (cf. p. 119).
3. L. 6: The mistakes of the bosses we must pay for. L. 7-8: From the cities and the farmlands to trenches
full of mud/War has always been the bosses way, sir. L. 13-15: Now I long for the morning that they realise brutality and unjust laws cannot defeat us. L. 16-17: When the bosses send their lackeys out to cheat us? Money speaks for money, the Devil for his own. 4. Bosses are shown as devils, as the cause of the workers problems. Bosses are blamed for/reproached for/ criticized for/accused of exploiting workers/lying to them/being devilish/being brutal/being unfair/having nothing but bad intentions regarding their employees. They are also held responsible for wars because financial interests are at stake. 5. L. 5: workers blood. L. 11: With our brothers and our sisters from many far-off lands. L. 15: But wholl defend the workers who cannot organise. L. 14: brutality and unjust laws cannot defeat us. The workers are presented as victims. According to the singer, they have always been victimized by their bosses and their governments (described as sharing the bosses interest and ideals/as siding with the bosses). Billy Bragg seems to assume that the workers have the same problems worldwide and that they sometimes find it hard to organise and fight against the powers of money. Yet, he adds that they are determined to fight for their rights at any price. 6. The power in the hand of the worker (l. 2) is what makes the existence of a union legitimate in a factory because the workers are those who produce and create wealth. 7. We can say they are left wing ideas, communist ideas. 8. Personal answers.

1. a. Passif : agent inconnu.
e. Passif : agent connu de tous. b. Actif. f. Passif : agent connu de tous. c. Passif : agent exprim. g. Passif : agent connu de tous. d. Passif : agent sans intrt. h.

1. A painting dating back to the late 19th Century or early 20th Century. 2. In the background a factory/a plant. In the middle ground a wall behind which we can see a few more chim-
neys and in the foreground a large number of men, most probably the factory workers who have decided to stop work to protest against their working conditions. 3. It could be a steel mill. There are many buildings and workshops. Black smoke is coming out of the tall chimneys, undoubtedly polluting the atmosphere. 4. They are wearing caps and blue jackets which must be their working clothes. They are marching, demonstrating and waving red flags. We can see two of the workers shouting and raising their hands in the air to express their anger. They all seem to be walking in a very determined way. 5. The main factory building, the chimneys and the red flags catch our attention first because of their vivid colours. 6. The row of chimneys makes us think of the bars of a prison cell, and we immediately associate them with imprisonment and loss of freedom. The row of chimneys could also remind us of tall poplar trees but their bareness evokes pollution and death. 7. The flags and some of the workers jackets. 8. The workers may be demonstrating because they want to have a pay rise or work fewer hours. They may find their working conditions unacceptable, not to say unbearable. They may feel that they are being exploited by the factory owners and that they do not get their fair share of the profits they contribute to. They may also find their job physically dangerous or harmful for their health. They may be reacting against some new regulations they do not agree with. They could also fear their job might shorten their life expectancy. Maybe they also want to work shorter hours to be able to enjoy family life or have some spare time to devote to their friends or pastimes. 9.

Ce lobby sappuie sur le deuxime amendement de la constitution qui dcrte que le port darmes est un droit qui ne peut pas tre enfreint. Il existe galement des lobbies contre le port darmes; par exemple, la Million Mom March (en rfrence Martin Luther King et sa Million Man March), le jour de la fte des Mres.

QUOI ? POURQUOI ? COMMENT ? 1 A Nation of Gunfighters
Manuel p. 132/133
p. 6
The right to bear arms dates back a long way and has to be understood before passing judgement on the United States of America. 1. No one can stop people from carrying guns if they want to. 2. The frontier tradition refers to how the Americans used to cross many frontiers on their way West. It was very dangerous to cross America at that time and the people needed arms to defend themselves. 3. Outlaw, robber and murderer are the three words that develop the idea of a bandit. 4. A gunfighter could be someone who is very bad, like a robber or murderer, or it could be someone very good like a sheriff who wants to protect the people from the bad gunfighters. 5. The right to own a weapon symbolizes liberty and freedom for the Americans. It dates back to pioneer times when everyone had the right to carry a weapon because they needed one.
2 Guns and Violence

The figures are alarming. So many children in the States feel safer carrying guns that one wonders how the vicious circle can ever end. 1. You can buy, carry, steal, fire, shoot, aim, sell, find, hide, load, use guns. 2. Weapons. 3. 1 Gun Victims, 2 Influence on children, 3 Gun carrying at school, 4 Feeling safe. 4. Children are most often referred to. 5. The number of children carrying weapons is extremely high, as is the number of deaths. It is awful to think one child dies every ninety minutes as a result of firearms.
POD LECTURE A Very Powerful lobby

The NRA is one of the most powerful lobbies in they USA. This Pod Lecture just gives us the plain facts. 1. The NRA is a pressure group defending the right of all Americans to carry a gun. NRA is short for the National Rifle Association. 2. The NRA wants everyone to carry a gun if they want to. 3. The NRA provides gun training for the public, including children. 4. The NRA claims that guns are no more dangerous than swimming pools and everyday electrical apparels. 5. To counterbalance their position they say they are very tough on punishments for gun-related crimes. 6. The NRA donates a lot of money to political candidates who support the right to carry guns.
Transcription
We cannot talk about gun control in the USA without looking at The National Rifle Association. The NRA is the most formidable pressure group in the USA. They provide gun training for the public, including children. They run special programs for women to advertise these programs, they say that three out of four American women will be victims of violent crime at some time in their lives. They claim guns are a fact of everyday life. Guns, they say, are no more dangerous than swimming pools, electrical apparels, matches or all sorts of poisons everybody has in their kitchens or bathrooms. To those who say there are too many gun crimes, they answer that they are very tough on punishments for gun-related crimes. The NRA is a very powerful lobby. They donate a lot of money to political candidates who support the right to carry guns, and they are always on the alert when they feel the right of citizens to carry guns is threatened. 108 Folder 9 Of Guns and Arms

What would you do if you were working in a fast food restaurant and a robber came in and ordered you to put up your hands? This mini play is based in this true story: The Ann Arbor News crime column reported that a man walked into a Burger King in Ypsilanti, Michigan at 7:50 a.m., flashed a gun and demanded cash. The clerk turned him down because he said he couldnt open the cash register without a food order. When the man ordered onion rings, the clerk said they werent available for breakfast. The man, frustrated, walked away.

Drinks: milkshake, coke, sparkling water, soft drinks. 2. On the right we can see a man running along the street. He is pointing a gun at someone perhaps a policeman or a passer-by. He is carrying a large bag over his shoulder. Maybe there is a lot of money in it that he has stolen. He could be a robber who has just held up a store or a restaurant. 3.

1. The little girl is playing with a gun. Perhaps her parents own the gun and they had hidden it in a shoebox under
the bed so their child wouldnt find it. This is extremely dangerous as the gun could go off and kill the girl or someone with her. 2. First I would ask her parents why they had a gun. Is it really necessary to keep a gun when there are children around? They might say they need a gun to protect their family in case someone breaks in. I would tell them that they should put the gun in a place that would be very hard for the child to get to.

Once upon a time [1620], there were these people in Europe called pilgrims, and they were afraid of being persecuted so they all got on a boat and sailed to the New World, where they wouldnt have to be scared EVER AGAIN. Oh, I am so relaxed, I feel so much safer. But as soon as they arrived, they were greeted by savages and they got scared all over again so they killed them all. In 1775, they started killing the British, so they could be free and it worked, but they still didnt feel safe so they passed the Second amendment which said that every white man could keep his gun I love my gun, love my gun. Which brings us to the genius idea of slavery. You see, boys and girls, the White people back then were also afraid of doing any work, so they went to Africa, kidnapped thousands of Black people, brought them back to America, and forced them to work very hard for no money. Doing it that way made the USA the richest country in the world! So, did having all that money and freedom help calm the White people down? No way! They got even more afraid and thats because after 200 years of slavery, the Black people now outnumbered the White people in many parts of the South. I wanna live, no dont kill me big Black man. But, just in the nick of time came Samuel L. Colt, who, in 1836, invented the first weapon ever that could be fired over and over, without having to reload! But, it was too late the North soon won the Civil War, and all the slaves were free, yeap they were now free to go chop all their old masters heads off! And everybody was like Oh no, were gonna die! So, they formed the Ku Klux Klan. And, in 1871, the SAME year that the Klan became an illegal terrorist organization, another group was founded the National Rifle Association.

This article appeared in Teen People Magazine and is an extraordinary account of how a teenager came close to pulling a Columbine with one of his friends. He did not actually take part in the killing, but the fact that he was unable to stop the massacre sent him into a spiral of depression.
COMPREHENSION
Before you read
1. This cover of the world famous magazine, Time, is extremely frightening. It shows two armed young men in a
classroom. The headline tells us that it is about the Columbine shooting. It says they have found the tapes, so perhaps this is a photo from one of the CCTV cameras in the school. It is extremely frightening because it is real. 2. The article is written after the Columbine shooting which took place in 1999. Perhaps it refers to a similar shooting incident in an American school. 112 Folder 9 Of Guns and Arms

3. The narrator is a high school student who tells us he had a friend who said he wanted to do a Columbine. He
tells us what happened in this article.

4. Andy Williams is a friend of the narrator. He is a ninth grader and likes skating, punk and heavy metal. Andy
can be very funny but is also suffering from depression. He didnt fit in at school.
5. On March the 5th, 2001, Andy took his fathers revolver and shot at the kids in the school hallway. He killed
two and injured 13.

6. Yes, his act was premeditated as he had been thinking about doing it for a long time. 7. The reasons for his act could include the teacher embarrassing him in class, being depressed and not being
tough like the other kids at school.

8. He is in a residential treatment centre where he is being treated for drug addiction. He is very depressed. 9. He regrets not having told people what his friend planned to do. He probably feels guilty about it. He intends
to prevent other violent acts from happening by being a spokesman for PAX.
10. Personal answers according to each students own experience.

Here are the voices of two women affected by the ban on carrying weapons. They feel constantly threatened by violent drug dealers and thugs in their towns and have the impression that the government has shown itself to be on the side of the criminals by disarming ordinary citizens who should have the right to protect themselves. 1. The opinions of those in favour of gun carrying are expressed in these documents. 2. The three ladies: Shelly Parker, Mari Thompson and Deb Altrath. 3. Yes, they are ordinary citizens. 4. Their arguments: they live in high crime areas; they need to defend their homes or families; they are afraid the police wont arrive in time; thugs are taking advantage of the law; thugs can defend themselves, but ordinary citizens cant. 5. She faces arrest, prosecution and going to prison or having to pay a fine. 6. They say the authorities are disarming ordinary people and giving more rights to the criminals. 7. The Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave, where a mans home is his castle. 8. Depends on the students opinion. 9. I can understand everyones opinion but I dont think it is safer to carry guns.

The placard and the armband are to attract attention and tell people why they are demonstrating. 7. It is the opposite of the NRA slogan.

Transcription What are schools doing to reduce violence after the numerous shootings?
Well, some are holding school-shooting drills when students learn what they should do in case of emergency. Others require students to carry their books in transparent bags so that they cant hide guns. Or others check students backpacks at random. In some schools, they even have metal detectors! Are these measures taken in all schools? No. Some schools have hot lines that students can call any time, or are encouraging students to tell a teacher if a classmate threatens to hurt himself or herself or others. Our kids are still our best eyes and ears, say some head teachers. Dont school security measures conflict with personal rights? They do. Debra Jacobs of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) said the organization has received hundreds of calls from parents and students who complain that schools have been violating their rights to free expression. For instance, a high school student in Marble Hill, Missouri, was failed for a whole semester because he posted a Web site on his home computer that was critical of his high school. Is adding more security measures enough? Of course not. If we want to stop crime, there are three things we should do. We should help kids before trouble starts, we should reduce media violence and, above all, we should outlaw guns. And anyway, teenagers have to understand that, whatever their problems, shooting people is unacceptable. Adapted from an article by Alexandra Hanson-Harding, http://content.scholastic.com
116 Folder 9 Of Guns and Arms
SPEAKING (spoken production)

Subject 1
The poster is extremely effective. It shows a gun in the colours of the US flag so it is referring to the USA. The figures written on the top of the poster show the enormous amount of people killed by guns in the USA. Last year 10,728 people were killed by guns in the US, compared to 48 people in Japan. Even if you consider that the population is five times bigger in the States than in France or Great Britain, it is still a huge amount. The use of the slogan God Bless America is very ironic. At the bottom of the poster we can see the words Stop handguns before they stop you. This is very effective and makes people aware of the dangers involved in carrying guns. This is one of the best posters against firearms I have ever seen and I really agree with the philosophy behind it. I think if every American realized how many more people were killed in their country than in other countries they might stop making it so easy to purchase arms.
Subject 2
I would choose the slogan Stop the arms trade because I think if people did not make so much money by selling arms we wouldnt have the problem that we do with arms. The first slogan, Speak out! Dont Shoot! probably means that you should speak about problems instead of shooting. Or perhaps it means speak out against guns rather than shoot. Guns Save Lives is not a very good slogan to wear. Perhaps in war or if someone is being attacked, guns can save lives but it is not a good idea to encourage everyone to carry guns. They seem to take more lives than they save.
SPEAKING (spoken interaction)

Tom Look at that laser gun! Its perfect for Jordan. Danielle You must be joking. We cant buy him a laser gun. Its a violent toy and it will encourage him to be
more violent. Tom But Jordan is a very peaceful kid. He will love playing with it. I had tons of toys like this when I was a kid and Im not violent. Danielle Listen, Tom, there were so many killings in our country last year that I really think we should choose another toy for Jordan. Tom Perhaps you are right. What about a toy tank?

1 The People of South Africa

Ce texte prsente le peuplement de lAfrique du Sud et la guerre des Boers qui a oppos les Hollandais et les Britanniques la fin du XIXe sicle et au dbut du XXe sicle. 1. Bushmen, Bantu Tribes, Zulu and Xhosa, Portuguese explorers, Dutch settlers, British settlers. This list shows the great variety of ethnic groups and nations that settled the country and shaped its history. 3. The rivalry between the Dutch and the British got worse and ended up in the Boer wars that took place between 1899 and 1902.
2 The Birth of Apartheid

1. The National Party enforced racial segregation and promoted Afrikaner culture. 2. Racially mixed marriages were prohibited. Blacks were not entitled to live in the same areas as Whites nor to
move freely into urban areas nor to use the same benches, cafs, shops, beaches as Whites. The Black population was pushed back into the most infertile part of the country. 3. They got poorer and lived below the poverty line since they could not grow much on their new territory. There, they could not have the same education opportunities and health care as the Whites.

Transcription
The Soweto uprising took place on 16 June, 1976. The South African police opened fire on Black students who were demonstrating against the use of Afrikaans as the main teaching language in Black schools. They killed 332 people, many of them children. It was the beginning of an 18-year confrontation between Black protesters and the White government. Gradually, the government lost the fight. In the election of 1994, the African National Congress, the party of the Black majority, won 63 percent of the votes. It was the end of Apartheid. Nelson Mandela, the leader of the African National Congress, who had been imprisoned from 1968 to 1990, became the countrys first Black president. He faced a very hard situation: how could Blacks and Whites live together after 46 years of Apartheid? He established a reconciliation commission which gave people amnesty for the crimes they had committed, provided they admitted what they had done. Action Make up a timeline

In the picture on the left, we can see a lot of Black people queuing up/lining up to get on a bus. These people look fairly miserable and they are carrying bags. They may have done some shopping or they may be going home and taking a few things back to their children or old folks. As there are no Whites at all, we can infer this photo was taken under Apartheid laws. 2. The Homelands were the infertile lands where the entire Black population was relocated in the 1950s when Apartheid was in full swing (cf. p. 149). 3. Naledi and Tiros mother probably works in Johannesburg because there are no jobs available where the family lives. The place must be so infertile and the living conditions so bad that their mother went to Joburg to earn some money to feed her kids. She may be a single mother or her husband may have been killed by the police or may be imprisoned and she is the only breadwinner in the family.

Les lves auront besoin de repres pour comprendre le document : 1. Desmond Tutu, a Black archbihop, was one of the most famous opponents of Apartheid. Frederik De Klerk was the last State President of Apartheid-era South Africa, from 1989 to 1994. He is famous for engineering the end of Apartheid. He shared the Nobel Peace Prize with Nelson Mandela in 1993. Steve Biko was a nonviolent anti-Apartheid activist in the 1960s and early 1970s. He died while in police custody in 1977. The Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) was a court-like body after the end of Apartheid. Perpetrators of violence could give testimony and request amnesty from prosecution. Victims of violence were also heard. The TRC was a crucial component of the transition to full and free democracy. 2. Desmond Tutu and Frederick De Klerk are shaking hands, probably when the TRC was launched.

The Truth Commission is supposed to provide the final phase of the South African miracle, to draw a line under the violent Apartheid past and bring forgiveness and reconciliation. But the whole question of amnesty, to whom it must be granted and under what circumstances could prove complex and divisive. This commission has a formidable brief. The aim is to first find the truth, and then forgive. Unless we acknowledge that some horrendous things were done That some people are willing to confess that they were responsible for those acts, and until those who were victims are ready to say they forgive, we are for the birds. I hope this truth commission will help us, because when these policemen be punished, because my brother didnt do anything, and he was young. And what would you like to happen to the policemen after that? I want him to be punished. I want him to be punished. He said to me, Ive been shot by a shotgun get an ambulance.

But the Archbishops grand strategy for forgiveness has a mixed response of the townships.

1. These
photos must have been taken in South Africa during the Apartheid era; yet they stand in sharp
contrast. On page 152 we can see a Black man being bullied and arrested by two policemen. The one behind him seems to be searching him. The White policeman who is grabbing him looks threatening with a baton in his hand. The black and white photo shows a Black lady looking after two White children, she must be their nanny. They all look happy. The Black nanny is carrying a toddler on her back and is laughing. 2. Judging from the title of the text we could guess that a Black man or woman is speaking about his or her life before Apartheid was abolished.
Read the text
3. The text relates a White mans memories. 4. First period: his childhood when he could notice strange things.
Second period: his youth when he realized how unfair and horrible Apartheid was. Third period: his studies in the United States where he got a degree in journalism. Fourth period: his emigration to Israel because, as a journalist, he was forbidden to express his disapproval/ he was gagged. Fifth period: his return to South Africa and hope in the future of the country. 5. Lines 15 to 18: they had a luxurious privileged life at the expense of the Blacks. 6. Lines 4 to 7 and line 18 : they were segregated and were not allowed to mix with White people. They could not move freely and had to have permits. (cf. Culture Blog.) 7. Young Ilan realized how unfair Apartheid was when he called his Black nanny Kaffir, an insult, and he saw he had hurt her feelings very deeply. He saw the pain in her eyes and felt ashamed of himself. From that day onwards he became aware of the horror of the system, of how hard and unbearable it was for the Black community. He gradually became opposed to the Whites policy. 8. Line 11: the horrors of Apartheid. Lines 11 and 12: the race segregation system, the legal system, the health system, the transport system, all corrupted. Line 14: an evil practice. 9. The narrator felt he had to leave South Africa because he was forbidden to express his disapproval, he was forbidden to denounce the unfairness and horror of Apartheid. He did not have any freedom of speech. 10. He emigrated to Israel probably because he was of Jewish origin. 11. The narrator is hopeful today because South Africa is a free country; equality for all has been re-established and he knows his country has a lot of potential, given its labour force and natural resources.

farmers, had a pleasant way of life and they were deeply attached to their land and traditions.
2. The visitor was a White government official who had come to announce the village was going to be taken from
the villagers to be given to the Whites who claimed the land was theirs. The visitor told Indala, the chief of Lwako, they were going to be displaced and moved to another place near Pretoria. 3. The order to get ready to leave was not only a verbal one. The White official left a note. We can read that the visitor handed over an official envelope to Indala (l. 12). 126 Folder 10 South Africa
4. The men decided to resist and to fight against the White power that wanted to take over all the land. 5. The army and police arrived at sunset. As the sun sank slowly bringing in the night, the noise of a convoy
could be heard (l. 75-76). They came then because they thought that this event would go unnoticed or because they felt it would be easier to attack the village at night when it was dark. 6. At first the police asked the villagers to get out of their houses with their belongings but the Blacks refused to comply with the Colonels orders. Indala came out and declared they would not leave their land. As Indala was walking back to his house, refusing to stop, he was shot in the leg. Then, the Colonel ordered his men to attack and they beat or killed some villagers. Thirdly, as some villagers were attacking the policemen, the latter used helicopters and sharpshooters to destroy the Umuzi and its inhabitants. The Colonel even brought in the bulldozers to take down and flatten what was left of the houses. 7. By the end of the day, the Umuzi had been wiped out of the map. The assault was not kept secret because Indalas oldest son heard about the destruction in Johannesburg (l. 127). 8. Indalas son found the government officials letter intact, realized his father had not read it and found out, on reading it, that the village that was to be destroyed was not Lwako but another one. He was desperate because the destruction of his fathers village was a mistake and most villagers had died for nothing. 9. The text reveals the utter misunderstanding between Blacks and Whites and the gap that existed between the two communities.
