Exemple de réponse :
Ella, a fourteen-year-old girl, moves to a new town. At school, she meets Sam, a strange boy who never talks. One day, she discovers his incredible secret: he can hear what people think… Will this gift bring them together or put them in danger?
Le résumé est au présent, il présente les personnages et le point de départ, et s’arrête sur une question. On ne dit pas que Sam parle à la fin.
Exemple de critique modèle :
Wonder – ★★★★★
« Wonder » is a novel written by R. J. Palacio. It is set in New York today. It tells the story of Auggie, a ten-year-old boy with a different face, who goes to a real school for the first time. At first, some students are cruel to him, but…
I found this book absolutely moving because the story is told by several characters, so you understand everyone’s feelings. It is also hilarious at times. However, a few chapters are a bit repetitive.
All in all, it’s definitely worth reading. I’d recommend it to anyone from eleven to a hundred!
Points à vérifier : written by et is set in, résumé au présent sans la fin, trois adjectifs (moving, hilarious, repetitive), because et however, worth reading, I’d recommend it to, note sur cinq.
Comment progresser après ce corrigé
Constitue-toi une banque de dix adjectifs d’opinion et de cinq connecteurs, et réutilise-les à chaque fois que tu parles d’un film ou d’un livre, même à l’oral. Entraîne-toi à résumer en trois phrases un film que tu viens de voir, au présent, sans dire la fin. Enfin, relis toujours ta critique en cherchant les -s de la 3e personne et les participes passés irréguliers (written, seen).
