Message from Professor Griset for his M2 students / Homework for next Tuesday

Dear M2 students,

I have just been told today by Professor Griset that he will not have his seminars on Tuesday evenings so as to allow you to come to my English class at Malesherbes (room 116) from 6:30 pm to 8:00 pm on Tuesdays. 

In case some of you have seminars with someone else on Tuesday evening, they are kindly required to email me as soon as possible. 

Any absence without a valid and sincere justification will be very severely sanctioned. 

Homework  for next Tuesday (Oct 12)

You will find all the handouts distributed and audio reports mentioned last Tuesday from the link indicated on the previous message. 

1/ Listen carefully and several times to the audio report from the BBC titled "The Cost of Cotton" and check the vocabulary from the transcript and start learning it.

2/ Grammar: do the exercise #2 from Unit 1 and 2 (see the handout), from the grammar textbook (Hewings, M., Advanced Grammar in Use (with CD Rom), Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2005). Since we will use it quite extensively during the semester, I strongly recommend that you buy it. 

3/ False Friends: exercise #1 (see the handout) 

4/ Celsa fill in the blanks exercise: "China Media Less Aggressive in Foreign Coverage"

5/ Last Tuesday, we worked on an audio report titled "Moscow's Homeless People": fill in the blanks and vocabulary (do this exercise, check the underlined vocabulary and start learning it)

Best regards, 

Mounir Nassor
