short Stories

Here you have a selection of very small stories to read when on holiday. They are quite easy, a good way to learn more vocabulary for next year...Some of them have audios so it's like killing two birds with one stone, isn't it?

The Archers

The best way to improve your listening skill is by listening...
Click on the link at the bottom and listen to a brand new chapter every day( well, on week days, I think ). You can download them onto your mp3, Ipod, mobile or computer...and listen to them while sunbathing.

The Archers is a long-running British soap opera, which began in the 1950s. I like it a lot because it´s so well produced, every little sound is recorded...the birds, cars, every noise to make it, if possible, more real! Besides the English spoken is fairly understandable.

HUCKLEBERRY FINN



If you liked what you´ve seen so far...go to youtube and continue watching...

To know more about this incredible adventurous novel written by Mark Twain...search on "wikipedia".

One of the main characters in "The Lord of the Rings" is also one of the main ones here.

Let me give you a piece of advice...
1) Go to the kitchen, make yourself some nice pop-corn
2) Go to your lounge and sit on a comfy sofa,dim light...
3) Put all your senses while watching because there are no subtitles. SORRY!
4) Last but not least...ENJOY!
