Correction de l’exercice 11 : Production guidée

Exemple de réponse :

I agree up to a point. Phones are a real distraction in class, and many teachers point out that students check their notifications every few minutes. Admittedly, a total ban would make lessons calmer and might even reduce cyberbullying during breaks. Nevertheless, I’d argue that banning phones completely goes too far. In an emergency, students need to contact their parents, and phones can be useful learning tools: dictionaries, translation apps or quick research for a project. Some critics also claim that a ban simply teaches students to hide their phones rather than to use them responsibly. As far as I’m concerned, the best solution would be a clear rule: phones switched off in lessons unless the teacher asks for them, and allowed during breaks. That way, we learn self-control instead of just obeying.

Comment progresser après ce corrigé

Recopie dans un carnet les trois erreurs que tu fais le plus (souvent I am agree, according to me, despite of) et relis-les avant chaque devoir. Entraîne-toi ensuite à réagir à voix haute à des affirmations simples en utilisant chaque fois un degré différent de l’échelle d’accord : la nuance devient vite un réflexe.
