Mod, og et talent inden for engelsk søges.

Kom med den (:

ja akademic hvorfor gør du ikke det?

Fordi at jeg er bange for at andre fra min klasse skal se den...

yeah. I know.. crybaby

Dunnar, så lige at du er opgaveredaktør i engelsk. Var det en mulighed at jeg kunne sende den til dig? Det er en kvart side!

Formålet med at have et forum man kan søge i, er at der faktisk ligger nogle tekster, og ikke bare en udveksling af emailadresser. Sæt den ind på siden, så skal jeg gerne komme med nogle hints - du bliver klogere af det, og hvis nogen fra din klasse kopierer opgaven, ja så gør de sig selv en bjørnetjeneste (var der nogen der sagde eksamen?)

Samme dag jeg bliver student , bliver min søster realist. Jeg får hele turen med hysteron, champagne og kransekage. Min studentergave er en rejse til Paris. Lulú får ingenting. Det forunderlige er, at hun bider tænderne sammen som før. Hun skriver sit navn I huerne, slynger rundt med armen og lyser op blandt de hvidklædte studiner. Min lillesøster charmerer alle, når hun er I det humør.
Ud på aftenen, da mine forældre har trukket sig tilbage fra festen, sætter jeg ild til studenterhuen med en lighter. Stoffet, hvor de andres navnetræk står prentet på indersiden med kuglepen, fænger hurtigt .
Kasketskyggen med bånd og svederem er længere om at tænde. Da den endelig flammer op, stinker der lissom når man pillede celluloid af cykelstyr og satte ild til det med et brændeglas. Da skyggen flammer op, blir den hængende I mine fingre. Der opstår et øjebliks panik, før jeg får tagvinduet op og kyler den ud i sommernatten.
Det er nok til at imponere mine kammerater. Så mærker jeg Lulús one hvile på mig gennem kredesen af skrålehoveder og rygklappere. De er mørke som de bliver, når har nået en bestemt dybde. Hun vender ryggen til mig. Pludselig kan jeg se det og føler mig flov. Hun er såret på sine egne drømmes vegne.
Kammeraterne og jeg hujer videre til den næste studenterfest.




ENGELSK
The same day as I graduate, my sister becomes a realist. I'm getting the whole ride with horse carriage, champagne and almond cake. My graduation gift is a trip to Paris. Lulu gets nothing. The strange thing is that she's biting her teeth together as always. She writes her name in the caps, hurls around with her arm and brights up among the white dressed female students(fem). My little sister charms everyone when she's in that mood. Later that evening, when my parents have retired from the party, I set fire to the (student cap) with a lighter. The fabric, where the others names is printed on the inner side with a pen, catches on quickly. The cap-shadow with lace and sweat... takes longer time to flame. When it finally lits up, it reeks like when you peel celluloid of bike-(heads) and setting it on fire with(brændeglas). When the shadow flames up, it remains stuck on my fingers. A moment of panic happens, before I get the roof window open and toss it out in the summer night. That's enough to impress my friends. Then I feel Lulu's eyes resting on me through the crowd of loud heads and (back padders). They are dark as they become, when they have reached a certain depth. She turns her back on me. Suddenly I see it, and feel embarrassed. She's hurt on the behalf of her own dreams. The buddies and I cheer on to the next studentparty.

Perfecto. Enkelte rettelser.

tak -Zeta-, men havde selv spottet dem. but thanks again,

/she's biting her teeth together/

Spekulerer på om man ville sige

She's clenching her teeth

Da clenching passer meget godt ind på dette eksempel, synes jeg

Det er en fordanskning, brug hellere "Bite back".

Ordbogen siger:

Bide tænderne sammen: "set" (stærkere: "clench") "one's teeth" (altså, det som Merit-HB siger)
figurligt: ikke give sig: "grit one's teeth"
(holde ud): "keep a stiff upper lip"
