MY EXPERIENCE IN BOOK 4

DEAR FOCUS:

I’M GUERY YAMIL LOPEZ SALAZAR. I’M FROM COCHABAMBA BOLIVIA.

IN THIS LETTER, I’M GOING TO TELL YOU ABOUT MY EXPERIENCE IN FOURTH BOOK.

IN THIS BOOK, WHICH IS ABOUT CULTURE, I’VE ENJOYED A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE FILM HISTORY, ITS
BEGINNING AND HOW DOES IT MAKE NOWADAYS. PARTICULARLY, I’M NOT FAN ABOUT THE ART, BUT
WHEN I’M SEEING AN ART PAINTING SOMETIMES, I FEEL THE PAIN OF THE PAINTER. THIS IS BECAUSE I
THINK THAT THEY DO THIS ART BY EXPRESSING SOME FEELINGS, ESPECIALLY PAIN AND SUFFERING ABOUT
SOMETHING OR SOMEONE. THE MUSIC IS LIFE REPRESENTED IN MANY WAYS.
IN SCENARIO 6, I’VE LEARNED ABOUT THE PREPARATION OF WINE. ALSO, SOME PHRASAL VERBS. THIS
PART STILL A LITTLE DIFFICULT DUE TO THE HIGH QUANTITY AND DIFFERENT MEANINGS OF THEM.
OBVIOUSLY, THE BEST GASTRONOMY IS LOCATED IN COCHABAMBA. WITH ITS DIFFERENTS DISHES FOR
ANY TASTE. IN SCENARIO NINE, I’VE READ ABOUT THE SEVEN WONDERS OF THE ANCIENT WORLD.
NOWADAYS SOME OF THEM STILL REMAINIG ON EARTH AND OTHERS HAVE RAISED. IN THIS SCENARIO,
ALSO, I’VE STRENGTHENED THE USE OF MODAL VERBS WHICH HAVE BECOME IN MY “ACHILLES HEEL”
FROM BOOK 2.
IF SOME DAY I GO ABROAD, I’D LIKE TO STAY IN BURJ AL ARAB HOTEL IN DUBAI, WHICH IS ONE OF THE
MOST BEAUTIFUL HOTELS IN THE WORLD.
IN SCENARIO ELEVEN, DESCRIBING REGRETS ABOUT THE PAST WAS THE HARDEST PART OF THE BOOK,
DUE TO THE USE OF “SHOULD HAVE”, THE VERBS IN PAST PARTICIPLE AND THE CONDITIONALS. BUT I’VE
GOTTEN MORE FAMILIARIZED WITH THEM SO I HAD BEEN READING “THE WAR OF THE WORLDS” IN AN
AUDIOBOOK IN ENGLISH. IN THIS AUDIOBOOK, IT’S USED THE DIFFERENT CONDITIONALS. IN SCENARIO
TWELVE, I WAS A LITTLE CONFUSED ABOUT USING THE INFINITIVE CLAUSES AND PHRASES OF PURPOSE
SUCH AS “SO AS TO” AND “SO THAT”, BECAUSE OFTEN THEY HAVE THE SAME MEANING. I HAVE TO SAY
THAT I’VE GOTTEN THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE CLAUSES OF MANNER. TALKING ABOUT THE SCENARIO
THIRTEEN, THE PAST MODALS OF CERTAINTY DEFINITELY BROKE MY HEAD THINKING HOW AND WHEN
USE THEM. AFORTUNATELY, I DIDN’T HAVE MUCH PROBLEM WITH THE MODALS FOS ADVICE AND
OPINIONS.
THE EXERCISES IN PLATFORM ABOUT THE MODALS DESCRIBING PROCESS WERE VERY DIFFICULT, IN MANY
OF THEM I HAD TO THINK THE ANSWERS TWO OR THREE TIMES AND EVEN WITH DOUBT.
FINALLY, IN SCENARIO SIXTEEN, THE LARGEST SCENARY OF THE 4 BOOKS, I’VE ENJOYED LEARNING ABOUT
SOME FAMOUS AND BEAUTIFUL BEACHES IN THE WORLD. HOWEVER, THE GRAMATIC IN THIS SCENARY
WERE VERY COMPLICATED, BECAUSE THE MODALS KEEP BEING PRESENT IN ALL OF THEM.

I’VE ENJOYED TOO MUCH THIS BOOK, SUFFERING AND LEARNING :). IT WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA TO
CORRECT THE PROBLEMS IN SOME EXERCISES IN THE PLATFORM AND ALSO DO IT MORE DIDACTIC.

NEEDLESS TO SAY, I AM SO HAPPY TO CONTINUE LEARNING ENGLISH AT FOCUS AND BY MY OWN. I AM SO

EXCITED AND NERVOUS ABOUT THE FOCUS PROJECT…

MY BEST WISHES…
