  • Idioms-And-Expressions.Pdf
    Idioms and Expressions by David Holmes A method for learning and remembering idioms and expressions I wrote this model as a teaching device during the time I was working in Bangkok, Thai- land, as a legal editor and language consultant, with one of the Big Four Legal and Tax companies, KPMG (during my afternoon job) after teaching at the university. When I had no legal documents to edit and no individual advising to do (which was quite frequently) I would sit at my desk, (like some old character out of a Charles Dickens’ novel) and prepare language materials to be used for helping professionals who had learned English as a second language—for even up to fifteen years in school—but who were still unable to follow a movie in English, understand the World News on TV, or converse in a colloquial style, because they’d never had a chance to hear and learn com- mon, everyday expressions such as, “It’s a done deal!” or “Drop whatever you’re doing.” Because misunderstandings of such idioms and expressions frequently caused miscom- munication between our management teams and foreign clients, I was asked to try to as- sist. I am happy to be able to share the materials that follow, such as they are, in the hope that they may be of some use and benefit to others. The simple teaching device I used was three-fold: 1. Make a note of an idiom/expression 2. Define and explain it in understandable words (including synonyms.) 3. Give at least three sample sentences to illustrate how the expression is used in context.

  • How to Select a Monologue
    HOW TO SELECT A MONOLOGUE AMDA’s student population is diverse and, as an institution, AMDA subscribes to the philosophy that it is not necessary for performers to consider their own ethnicity, skin color, body shape, sexual preference, or gender in choosing material for our placement and scholarship auditions. Choose characters close to you in age (i.e. 1-2 years younger to 5 years older). It is very important to read the play from which your monologue is taken and to know the full name of the playwright. Be prepared to answer questions the adjudicator may have about the play, the scene, or the character. While monologue collections and internet sites may be useful, they cannot substitute for a full comprehension of the play and the character’s emotional arc within it. Be sure to look up—in the play, online or in a dictionary—any vocabulary, pronunciations or references in the monologue with which you are not familiar. AVOID SELECT • Material that you do not fully • Age-appropriate material, understand emotionally or choosing monologues with intellectually characters that you could portray • Overt sexual references today or five years from now • Excessive profanity • Pieces that contrast in style, • Portraying victims or period or tone (i.e. comedy perpetrators of violence, vs. drama, classical vs. addiction, or abuse contemporary or contrasting • Monologues from films characters) • Material from the internet that is • Material sourced from published not sourced from a published play plays • Monologues for which you feel a personal connection NOTE: Your personal favorites may not be the material that best serves you.

  • The Complete Stories
    The Complete Stories by Franz Kafka a.b.e-book v3.0 / Notes at the end Back Cover : "An important book, valuable in itself and absolutely fascinating. The stories are dreamlike, allegorical, symbolic, parabolic, grotesque, ritualistic, nasty, lucent, extremely personal, ghoulishly detached, exquisitely comic. numinous and prophetic." -- New York Times "The Complete Stories is an encyclopedia of our insecurities and our brave attempts to oppose them." -- Anatole Broyard Franz Kafka wrote continuously and furiously throughout his short and intensely lived life, but only allowed a fraction of his work to be published during his lifetime. Shortly before his death at the age of forty, he instructed Max Brod, his friend and literary executor, to burn all his remaining works of fiction. Fortunately, Brod disobeyed. Page 1 The Complete Stories brings together all of Kafka's stories, from the classic tales such as "The Metamorphosis," "In the Penal Colony" and "The Hunger Artist" to less-known, shorter pieces and fragments Brod released after Kafka's death; with the exception of his three novels, the whole of Kafka's narrative work is included in this volume. The remarkable depth and breadth of his brilliant and probing imagination become even more evident when these stories are seen as a whole. This edition also features a fascinating introduction by John Updike, a chronology of Kafka's life, and a selected bibliography of critical writings about Kafka.
