Hello, dear Friends,

Another "holiday exercise", but you're going on working, anyway... This work is just "normal", "ordinary"... You'll have to assist my poor student and help him correct his mistakes, then find the mystery words, unscrambling letters, and finally work your vocabulary with a word suggested by Maxwell. This is a and the correction will be online Monday, November 12th 2018, late at night.
I give you THE FORCE.

I)Please, help my student! He really needs you!
Comme la plupart des RYBs précédents, ce texte s'inspire de plusieurs textes de la presse écrite ou orale. Il a été, comme toujours raccourci, remanié, interprété, simplifié, allégé ... pour vous le rendre plus digeste et agréable.
Il n'y a aucun intérêt à rechercher le ou les extraits originels et originaux. Le seul intérêt est de le saisir "à bras le texte", et de vous "battre" avec ... and you'll win!
C'est en faisant ceci que vous pouvez travailler vraiment, et donc, je l'espère, progresser.
Go for it!
(Pour me faciliter la correction, merci de ne pas juxtaposer la forme fausse et celle corrigée. Seule la forme jugée correcte m'intéresse ... )

The online consultation, which ran in Europe from 4 july to 16 august 2018, received 4.6 million of responses from all 28 Member States. According to the results, 84% of respondents are in favour of putting an end to the bi-annual clock change.
In daylight saving time, I come home from the work and still feel that I have some time to enjoy the outdoors, play outside with my daughter, chat with neighbours, go to our pool, eat outdoors, etc.
As soon as it gets dark, our bodies secrete more melatonin signaling the body its time to rest. I don’t want to rest and go to bed when I get home! After a long day, THIS is MY free time. Instead, I am half sleeping by 7:00 p.m., my daughter is glued at her video games (rather than playing outside), and my husband has another excuse for not pruned the trees in the backyard. Depressing!
Along with feeling sleepy, feeling sluggish and down are par for the race. Our routines are off, we are outdoors less, we get fewer exercises. Beyond the fact that our day ends at 5 p.m., it is also the shift in our schedule that has a significant impact on our bodies, and our rythms. The ends of daylight saving time in the fall affect our mood, mental alertness, activity, appetite, attitude, and even our hearth function!
Our bodies are smart. They LIKE consistency and patterns because they build functions from that regularity. Did you know that if you woke every morning at 6:00 a.m., for example, your body begins to produce hormones necessary to help you woke and feel alerter at that time?

A partir du mot français suivant : «témoigner», trouver au moins 3 traductions anglaises (différentes) possibles que vous utiliserez chacune dans une phrase qui explicitera le contexte dans lequel on peut l'utiliser, l'éventuel registre de langue associé,
et les nuances de sens. Ces 3 expressions anglaises ne devront (si possible) pas être interchangeables, et chacune devrait apporter quelque chose de différent.

I'm sure the FORCE is with YOU!

Hello !

Juste un petit mot pour vous demander A TOUS , de ne pas oublier OUR STORY. Elle se porte bien, très bien même mais s’est complexifiée et j’aimerais VRAIMENT que chacun fasse un effort de participation.
Cela, grâce à la diversité des points de vue, donnerait encore plus d’intérêt à cet exercice que je sais être très formateur .... Il vous obligerait à travailler la souplesse, l’adaptabilité, ainsi que la rigueur dans l’usage de la langue .... ( au moins deux participations de chacun serait souhaitable et bénéfique à tous ....) Allez ! 40 mots pour inventer, délirer si vous le voulez, devenir ou rester « flexible » - one of the best Anglo-Saxon qualities! - )
Merci de nous faire, de VOUS faire ce plaisir !

ET .... aujourd'hui, SUPER BONUS HALLOWEEN...

A l'heure d'été, du travail je rentre à la maison, et je ressens toujours que j'ai du temps pour profiter de l'extérieur. En jouant dehors avec ma fille, en discutant avec les voisins, en allant à notre piscine, en mangeant à l'extérieur, etc.
Dès que la nuit tombe, nos corps secrètent plus de mélatonine, nous signifiant que c'est l'heure où le corps doit se reposer. Je ne veux pas me reposer et aller me coucher dès que je rentre chez moi ! Après une longue journée, c'est MON TEMPS LIBRE. Plutôt, je suis sommeillant vers les 19 h, ma fille est clouée à/scotchée à/hypnotisée par ses jeux vidéos, (plutôt que de jouer dehors), et mon époux a une autre excuse pou ne pas élaguer les arbres au fond du jardin. (de l'arrière cour).
Avec la sensation d'être au radar, (de vouloir dormir) on se sent ralentie/molle/apathique et abattue, c' est normal. Notre routine est brisée, moins nous sommes en plein air, moins nous faisons d'exercices. Au-delà du fait que votre journée s'achève à 17 h, c'est aussi les variations de notre emploi du temps qui ont un impact significatif sur nos corps et nos rythmes. Les fins de journée épargnant du temps, finalement affecte votre humeur, vos alertes mentales, votre attitude face à l'activité et votre appétit, et même vos fonctions cardiaques !
Nos corps sont intelligents. Ils apprécient la régularité et les constances types car, de cette régularité se construisent nos fonctions vitales. Savez vous que si vous vous réveillez chaque matin à 6 h, par exemple, vote corps commence à produire des hormones nécessaires pour vous maintenir éveillés et vous permettre de vous sentir plus vifs,/alertes dès cet instant ?

Hello, Dear hardworking friends,

Here is your correction.
My poor Student has given you a hard time but on the whole you could correct his English quite well. Congratulations to all of you!
The "scrambled words" were not easy either... I must admit you're now extremely good!
Same thing for "Maxwell's torture" which is becoming more and more complete.

Comme toujours, j'ai besoin de VOLONTAIRES pour le "follow up work" (DEUX pour le texte: First volunteer, down to "Depressing"!, and second one will do the end of the text. A third volunteer will work on the sentences with the words with scrambled letters ...

I)Please, help my student! He really needs you!

The online consultation, which ran in Europe from 4 July to 16 August (1) 2018, received 4.6 million responses (2) from all 28 Member States. According to the results, 84% of respondents are in favour of putting an end to the bi-annual clock change.
In daylight saving time, I come home from work(3) and still feel that I have some time to enjoy the outdoors*, play outside with my daughter, chat with neighbours, go to our pool, eat outdoors*, etc.
As soon as it gets dark, our bodies secrete more melatonin signaling to the body it’s time(4) to rest. I don’t want to rest and go to bed when I get home! After a long day, THIS is MY free time. Instead, I am half asleep (5) by 7:00 p.m., my daughter is glued to (6) her video games (rather than playing outside), and my husband has another excuse not to prune(7) the trees in the backyard. Depressing!

(1) Les mois de l’année prennent une majuscule, les jours de la semaine aussi, mais pas les saisons.

* = « outdoor » is an adjective and « outdoors » is a noun. You can have « outdoor fun » or you can « have fun outdoors ».
(4) "signaling it’s time to rest"= it is time = sujet + verbe et non pas "its time" qui voudrait dire « son temps » ("its"= possessif neutre.).
(5) L’expression est : «to be half-asleep» => to be asleep= être endormi.
(6) To be glued to TV= être collé à
(7) To prune the trees=> not to prune the trees. (Here, he won’t do it because it’s too dark.)
(8) "To be par for the course"= to be normal/ not to be extraordinary/ not to be unusual/ (Le "piège était "grossier" - confusion de "course" et "race", mais il suffisait de chercher l'expression.
(9) "on earth"= sur terre ; hearth= le foyer, l’âtre ; heart= le coeur

(12) The adjective alert (comparative form = "more alert", superlative form= "(the)most alert")

Je tente la 1ère moitié
The online consultation, which ran in Europe from 4 July to 16 August 2018, received 4.6 million responses from all 28 Member States. According to the results, 84% of respondents are in favour of putting an end to the bi-annual clock change.

A l'heure d'été, je rentre du travail et je sens quand même que j'ai du temps pour profiter du plein air, jouer dehors avec ma fille, discuter avec des voisins, aller à notre piscine, manger dehors, etc...
Dès que la nuit tombe, nos organismes sécrètent de la mélatonine signalant à notre corps qu'il est temps de se reposer. Je ne veux pas me reposer et aller au lit quand je rentre à la maison ! Après une longue journée, c'est MON temps libre. Au lieu de cela, je suis à moitié endormie vers 19H, ma fille est collée à ses jeux vidéo (plutôt que de jouer dehors) et mon mari a une nouvelle excuse pour ne pas tailler les arbres dans l'arrière-cour. Déprimant !
