Okay, i will try to begin :

This text comes from BBC news.

He (?) speaks of a debate about dyslexia.

2 professors opposed themselves to define this term and choose an appropriate treatment.

The first one (J. Elliott) says that nothing can discern dyslexia from poor readers, and of course no specific treatment for this persons proved his efficacy..

The second one said that as many people have a consensus , they can’t be on the wrong tack. And of course, many signs show that a person is dyslexic and techniques exist to take care of them.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I didn’t understand the article, especially the last 4 lines.

Is there someone to explain them to me?

and how woud you translate the tittle : explosions en ligne autour du reniement de la dyslexie?

How do we have to end our summary ?

In this text, I should use the dictionary for 25 words, do you think it’s too much?

I am sorry but my english is very bad !

But I like to improve it with you.

I try to read this text and :

This text treats of dyslexia.

The dislexia is a neurological anomalies in the brain . The professors (??) are not agree of the term "dyslexia" and on his symptoms.

So, they don't fin a particular treatment to about it.

I did not understand this text because there are much difficult words, and I use my dictionnary.

For bigonta, I suppose that last four lines means there are much people who have got this "illness".

I can join your group ???

Bye

I try to read this text and :

This text treats of dyslexia. --> are you sure of the "of ", maybe about?

The dislexia is a neurological anomalies in the brain . The professors (??) are not agree of the term "dyslexia" and on his symptoms. -->I think disagree would be better ; and maybe its symptoms

So, they don't fin a particular treatment to about it. --> i think that "treatment about it" could be enough.

Good morning everybody,

When you have to present a text, DON'T use the pronoun "He" to mention it, but "IT". This text... IT...

Then, DON'T say : "He speaks of..." but "It deals with..." (to translate "ce texte parle de ", the appropriate way is : "this text deals with"

Then be careful with the tenses you use when you relate the content of the text. If you use the preterite tense, try to keep it during all the presentation. Here, for example, you cannot say :" 2 professors opposed (...) and CHOOSE , the preterite form of choose is "chose"

If you start with "The first one says..." , you have to go on with "the second one says..." and not "The second one said

I didn't read the text you worked on, but if you want, I promise I'll read it later and thus I'll be able to give you my opinion on it... Take care

[bigotna]
