Was ist dein Lieblingslied (ausser Africa von Toto)?

I hear the drums echoing tonight

But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation

She's coming in, 12:30 flight

The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation

I stopped an old man along the way

Hoping to find some old forgotten words or ancient melodies

He turned to me as if to say, "Hurry boy, it's waiting there for you"

It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you

There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do

I bless the rains down in Africa

Gonna take some time to do the things we never had

The wild dogs cry out in the night

As they grow restless, longing for some solitary company

I know that I must do what's right

As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti

I seek to cure what's deep inside

Frightened of this thing that I've become

It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you

There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do

I bless the rains down in Africa

Gonna take some time to do the things we never had

Hurry boy, she's waiting there for you

It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you

There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do

I bless the rains down in Africa

I bless the rains down in Africa (I bless the rain)

I bless the rains down in Africa

I bless the rains down in Africa (gonna take the time)

Gonna take some time to do the things we never had

Ja, "Africa" ist schon ein guter Song, mein persönlicher Favorit ist dann allerdings eher "Hold the Line".

Warum ist dieses Lied so unbekannt?

This sickness it burns inside me

It sticks in my throat I'm gonna choke I cannot speak

Besides it runs the fear of the unknown

Could this be some reckoning

Wrath for wrong I've done, comin' back to haunt me

The God I have denied his power shown

But now I can't protest although defiant heart it pounds deep in my chest

I know that this will have its way with me

For now I choose to go

I know it's just the mind tryin' to interrupt my flow

Intentions all fall down

My soul has died

Feed the greed, its not need I figure so what

Can you fix the hole

That resides deep in this gut

Right now I need a drink so

I'll fix myself whatever it takes I cannot wait

Now, this will not die they warned me in church when I was young I could rely

If there's a God, he's one I've never seen

& Now I just lament

Did not held the threat I played the cards that I've been dealt

Like putting out the fire with gasoline

For when I used I lose won't face the fear of life without something abused

That now I'm forced to find another way

My show your final show

A homicide I tried to warn, you should have known

Now I'll take you with me

Show you my pain

Feed the need it's not greed, I figure so what

You gonna tell me punk now uh-huh

Can you fix the hole

That resides deep in this gut

I'll fix myself whatever it takes I cannot wait

Come & get it, Come & get it, get some

I feed the need that twists my mind

Time & time again (gibberish) Come & get it

Written discussion..einmal drüber schauen bitte:)

German schools are getting dirtier and nobody does anything. In America, students take this problem in thei hands, they do some volunteer work and clean public buildings and restore parks. In this written discussion I want to discuss the question "Should german students does some volunteer work at their schools and public buildings".

The first argument for this ide is that students go out of their rooms. They don't watch TV the complete day or play some computer games, they does something for the community.

The next pro argument is that students learn to take responsibility. If they clean a place, they don't want zhat somebody make him dirty. They take care of him.

Now, the first contra argument is that some students does their work sloppy and the other studetns and volunteer worker can't rely on them.

The next contra argument is that students don't want to do this because they earn no money so it is in their point of view waste of time.

The written discussion show that volunteer work on schools is okay. Students do something and leran import things. My conclusion is: We need it in Germany.

Alan Watts (Übersetzung)?

Hallo, es ist vielleicht etwas viel aber kann mir jemand diesen Text von alan Watts genau übersetzen ?😊

Finde in Google leider nichts.. und meine englisch Kenntnisse sind jetzt auch nicht sooo gut :D

Well now really when we go back into falling in love. And say, it's crazy. Falling. You see? We don't say "rising into love". There is in it, the idea of the fall. And it goes back, as a matter of fact, to extremely fundamental things. That there is always a curious tie at some point between the fall and the creation. Taking this ghastly risk is the condition of there being life. You see, for all life is an act of faith and an act of gamble. The moment you take a step, you do so on an act of faith because you don't really know that the floor's not going to give under your feet. The moment you take a journey, what an act of faith. The moment that you enter into any kind of human undertaking in relationship, what an act of faith. See, you've given yourself up. But this is the most powerful thing that can be done: surrender. See. And love is an act of surrender to another person. Total abandonment. I give myself to you. Take me. Do anything you like with me. See. So, that's quite mad because you see, it's letting things get out of control. All sensible people keep things in control. Watch it, watch it, watch it. Security? Vigilance Watch it. Police? Watch it. Guards? Watch it. Who's going to watch the guards? So, actually, therefore, the course of wisdom, what is really sensible, is to let go, is to commit oneself, to give oneself up and that's quite mad. So we come to the strange conclusion that in madness lies sanity.

Wie findet ihr meinen selbstgeschriebenen Songtext?

Get up, I don't know how long you've been sitting here, but I know one thing for sure. It's time for you to finally get up. Don't let anyone tell you who you are! Only you know that. I know that when we argue, we don't talk to each other and we're both completely alone. But, I'll tell you one thing, everyone makes mistakes sometimes. And if some girl tells you that you're stupid. then ignore it because it's not true. Now come on, stand up, take my hand and let it all out!

Give me your hand and hold on to me, together we can achieve more. You're completely lost alone. remember that.

There were such beautiful moments, everyone stays here with us. No matter whether overnight parties, school trips, school work or punishment tasks. We did everything just the two of us. And it will stay like that. Because it's stupid to give up, to lose all courage. Come on, stand up, take my hand and hold it tight. I'll put a smile on your face. Come on, get up now and I'll hold your hand tight!

One against two, has no chance, so come here and don't let me down. Together we fight against evil. Together we are strong.

Give me your hand and hold on to me, together we can achieve more. You're completely lost alone. remember that.

Go through thick and thin together. When you're on thin ice, you don't let yourself down. But it helps. Hand in hand over the thin ice, then it becomes thick and doesn't break!

Give me your hand and hold on to me, together we can achieve more. You're completely lost alone. remember that.

Well, finally a smile on your face. I promise you, I won't leave you!

Kann jemand gut Englisch und diesen kurzen Text überlesen?

Hey, ich muss meiner Lehrerin einen Comment schreiben, per email. Hab da noch was dazu geschrieben. Wär nice wenn das jemand der gut englisch spricht das durchliest und mir sagt, ob es Fehler gibt/man was verbessern könnte und die Email angemessen für einen Lehrer ist.

Dear Mrs. , I was not sure if you wanted us to write the comment just about that text in the book (with a introduction and details about the text). So I just wrote my opinion down on that topic and included some of the arguments in the text.

Writing a comment – Young people in a multifaceted society

Many people think that our generation is anti-social, lazy and always on their phone. That might be true in some cases, but you can’t stereotype everyone just because of some people. Like every generation, there are lots of different kids and kind of people. There are extremes in every way. Teenagers steal, take drugs, don’t go to school and commit crimes, but also learn everyday more, get good grades, volunteer or work for charities, want to try new things and take part in demonstrations.

In every generation you can find similar people, but others describe and see us the way the mass acts. Most of us are insecure and don’t know how to deal with changes, their life in general and the expectations of their parents, families and friends. We are trying to grow up like every human before us, questioning our existence, purpose and matter of life.

The Internet, (social) media and the digitalisation in general make these questions particularly important. We have the opportunity to share our opinion with a great mass, but we also can influence them and in reverse, without us noticing it.

Such a conflict is new to humanity, there might be similarities to other problems in worlds history but we don’t know where to set limits or make rules for it. We are unsure about what is wrong and what is right, especially in this case, so many people don’t know what to think about a lot of important topics. Some try to make things legit, using the arguments (of different philosophies). They don’t think or even care about nature, animals or humans, their lives or rights. Since generations we are destroying the earth and taking all the resources, not caring about the people that will be born in the future and will have to deal with all the trouble and problems that we caused.

That sounds pretty pessimistic, but it’s the truth. In my opinion, the only main things improving with our generation and what we are changing right now are discrimination, sexism, racism and so on. Maybe we are far away from getting equality and the same (human) rights for everyone in the world, but at least we have the luck to be in the position to have a good(?) education and the access to a massive amount of information (Internet, library, school).

Kann mir das jemand von Englisch auf Deutsch übersetzen?

"You see, things aren't sequential. Good doesn't lead to good, nor bad to bad. People who steal, don't get caught, live the good life. Others lie, cheat and get elected. Some people stop to help a stranded motorist and get taken out by a speeding semi. There's no accounting for it. How you play the cards your dealt, that's all that matters."

Comment correction?

Hallo, und zwar musste ich ein comment schreiben in der Schule, welchen wir morgen vorzeigen müssen und ich wollte fragen ob einer vlt nochmal kurz denn comment überfliegen kann ob alles so passt.

A Few days ago there was a discussion if mobil phones and other electronic devices should be allowed at school. The pros are that even in school children can be shown how to behave on the internet. Another good argument for using mobil phones at school is that it's possible to quickly find information and work with it. The last and for me best argument is that through digital media, topics are dealt with holistically. Different points of view are taken into account and a solution is sought with different formats. The cons are that teacher can't check what the students gonna do on the smartphones and if they really being used for lessons or assignment. Another bad thing would be that if the permanent use at school is allowed, the risk of mobile phone addiction increases enormously. The for me worse thing would be that if Students didn't own a smartphone they would have a big disadvantage. My personal view is that the mobile phones should be allowed but not all the time only when the teacher allowed it, because mobil phones can be a good addition to the school.

Poetry Slam Meinung?

Wie findet ihr mein poetry slam? :) Seid ruhig ehrlich, klingt es besonders oder eher langweilig und albern? Und habt ihr Tipps bin noch „Anfängerin“ aber liebe es meine Gefühle durch das schreiben auszudrücken und möchte auch gerne Autorin später nebenbei werden :)

I wonder who will be the one who has a face that you could never forget, that would stay in your head, where you just couldn't stop looking at her, could I ever match that? One thing I know, when we saw each other, we both never thought that we would ever meet again as if we had some kind of relationship with each other. After that one night when you saw me, I knew you would forget me, why should that encounter be special to you? Because I was just another face of thousands for you, don't you remember me? Was my face too boring for you, was I just some uninteresting little girl for you? I am not the girl you would want to spend your life with, with whom you would share all your pain, every problem and every burden you carry. Because you know when I look at you I don't want to look away, every time I look at you every second goes by too fast until I'm waiting with longing for our next meeting, would we ever look at each other in such a way that you can't look away either, because when I look at you I feel something I never wanted to feel but in some way I like this feeling because it gives me butterflies in my stomach. Would you ever want me as much as you wanted her? because when you were talking about her you sounded so in love, you know i found it sweet on the one hand as a friend to hear that this love of boys still exists but on the other hand it broke me to thousand pieces to hear how she got the love I would like to get from you, isn't that unfair? She gets the love from you that she didn't appreciate at all, while I would have been the happiest person to be in her place.

Hier meine Summary von "No Tigers in Africa", Chapter 3, kann mir das jemand korrigieren? :D

In Chapter 3 of the novel „No Tigers in Africa“, written by Norman Silver, published in 1990, the main character Selwyn explains his familiar situation, especially the difficult relationship between his father and his mother, and his resulting problems by comparing the events in Bristol with those in South Africa. The action is set at Bristol in the present and the narrator remembers details of his dormer life in South Africa.

At the beginning Selwyn tells about how hard his father works, so that they could have the same standard of living as they had in Africa. However he says that for his mother the situation is difficult too, because in Africa she used to have a good life with lots of friends, but not in England. In addition he criticises how difficult it is to make friends in England in contrast to Africa and says because of that problem, his mother is not (oder no?) longer her old self, she is uncertain. Besides that he compares the situation in England with their move from Cape Town to Johannesburg, when he was seven. Selwyn admits that he needs time to “arrive”, but that the time, when they settle to Joburg, was actually more easy than settle to this country. After he mention he often skips school and goes to a place where he could see the gorge and the suspension bridge, however he hears that that bridge is a favourite place for suicides and finds similarities to his situation. Thereafter the narrator speaks about Brunel and the Voortrekker Monument which was built because of the victory of the whites over the blacks years ago in South Africa. Moreover he describes his feelings when he stays at the gorge at this time by comparing it with the thoughts he had when he looked over the railway of the Voortrekker monument, because there was a voice in his had, saying he should jump. However the voice means that he should jump over the cliffs inside him .He concludes that he needs to built such a bridge, metaphoric meaning, inside him. On top of that Selwyn tells when he walks once from gorges to the market, where he is instead of school often too, one day he recognizes his mother who is cheating on his dad with a black man. This is a big shock for him. The boy tries to explain his feelings, says he is confused and cannot believe what has happened. Selwyn describes his condition by comparing it with the a ground which has opened under his feet, describes that it is deeper than the liftshaft his dad fell down once at Christmas after he has drunk too much. Finally Selwyn feels very bad and sick, basically helpless and lost, he does not know what to do and starts to be silent again.

Könnte jemand bitte meine Englisch Argumentation korrektur lesen?

Asbos

In Britain, children and teenagers can be given an ASBO if they do anything that is an antisocial behavior. It’s a way of punishing them for their actions instead of going to prison or similar punishments. An ASBO consists of several punishments like being forbidden to go to different areas of a town or to meet specific people.

The problem with ASBO’s is that they can give the person depression because they are socially isolated. Consequently, this can lead to self harm or depression in the worst cases. Secondly, their actions aren’t primarily punished they are prevented so that the child/teen won’t do it anymore. Furthermore, the things that are reported aren’t necessarily illegal sometimes it’s just something that might be annoying to others, like tattoos. Having said that, this might just be a way of showing personality. Reportedly, it has happened that someone was just given an ASBO because he looked scary and was always wearing a hood. Another thing to add is that the pictures that are hung up around town can be really embarrassing and can lead to harassment by others. On the other hand, ASBOS also have advantages. Many teenagers have their problems with school, friends etc. This might lead to some illegal actions like drinking or smoking. In addition to that, there often is some kind of group pressure. ASBO’s are a way of showing them that their actions are wrong and that there is a solution to their problems. For instance, it’s a way of identifying that their actions have been wrong. Another key thing to remember is that ASBO’s can keep the children/teenagers from going to prison and that would be way worse.

All things considered, I think that ASBO’s can be good for the young people to change their antisocial behavior. That way, they can understand that their actions have been wrong and change them for good.
