Powerful idea to start with

Posted by Ocean on January 31, 2013

Hi!

I love the concept. so I have an idea if you like it, then you can approve it or improve it.

It is about posting some essays that include needed powerfull English words that majority of us are not familiar with. Not only this but more interesting also, the vocabularies should be usable through a context and clear illustration of these new words should be given too within the essay;therefore, every learner will be able to learn effectively and figure out the meaning easily. Moreover, if you like to ensure about the meaning of the words given, feel free to post comments showing the sense of the words right after. Good luck

              Dear Abdulrahman,

         this is an extract from a newspaper.

    MOTOR BIKE COUPLE GO ROUND THE WORLD

       Teacher John Wise and his wife Doreen who emigrated to Tasmania 12 years ago , decided to revisit England and see the world on the way - by motorcycle.

    After driving 10,000 miles overland without even a puncture they have arrived in England.

    They left  Tasmania in January and now plan to stay for two months at Taunton , Somerset , where Mr. Wise's widowed mother lives in Hamilton Road.

      Mr  Wise , 46 formerly science teacher at Askwith secondary school in Taunton and his wife ,who have three daughters went to Hobart , Tasmania , in 1961.

                                          TRUST

    For their return world trip Mr. Wise took year's unpaid leave.

    "We didn't have any spares with us ,' said Mr . Wise."We just put our trust in ourselves and the machine."

    So far the journey on a B.M.V. R50 through Australia , New Zealand .Panam. Mexico, the United States and Europe , Asia and India, another 14.000 miles. They expect their final bill to be about 1.000 pounds.

      That is what i meant actually in different way. so go a head.

    • bright - rubies February 3, 2013 8:18

      I agree with you Maia, thanks .

  • bright - rubies February 2, 2013 8:42

    It's a good idea. Thanks for sharing it with us, but can you give as an example to explain more your idea?

    • Ocean > bright - rubies February 3, 2013 13:03

      Ok! Bright you asked me for an example . Here it is dear

      "Nowdays it is been known that lots of banks suffred the bankrupt everywhere in the world. The countries governemts are trying their best to soppurt their funds resources by donating and deposting vast amounts of billions of investments each year into banks to assist and not make them lose their budgets which reflects deeply damage on country and people alike."

      Now dear Bright , Can you see the meaning of bankrupt within essay?

      It shows that "bankrupt" means " losing money" right .. everybody can guess that. so the beneficiary is got. or still not ?
