Bonsoir à toutes et tous, dear friends,

Voilà un thème aux airs de printemps qui va donc ramener le sourire, et se faire la tête sur l'oreiller ou presque.La tête dans les fleurs, on dira. à d'éventuels nouveaux, aux messieurs et non francophones. C'est ' a piece of cake ', you'll see by yourselves.
......................... To humorous easy-going S ! .............................

.................................. Récréation . Thème ludique ...............

A ) Grammaire.

1 ) Oh, mince! Qui a coupé la queue du chat avec un sécateur ? - Le jardinier (+ aux.)
2 )"Qui est le père ? ", demanda-t-il à l'hirondelle qui couvait.
3 ) Bernard, l'alligator de Maurice, est resté pensif devant les chutes du Niagara,c'est bien cela ?
4 ) La girafe, qui souffre d'une névralgie cervico-brachiale, devra porter une minerve pendant six mois . La pauvre !
5 ) Si tu viens sur mes genoux, mon chou, dit le hibou au pou, je ne te lancerai plus de cailloux, mais tu auras des joujoux, mon bijou.
6 ) Le gai helléniste a reçu un chapiteau corinthien sur le coin de la figure. Quelle tuile !
7 ) Cette baleine est fraîche, son regard est vif et elle ne baisse pas les yeux quand on la regarde .
8 ) Le roi et la reine n'ont pas réussi à avoir de dauphin ni de saumon.
9 ) J'ai demandé à la carpe combien de temps elle comptait rester enfermée dans son mutisme. Elle ne m'a pas répondu .
10 ) Le vétérinaire a interdit à la truite dont il a plâtré la queue de retourner à l'eau avant deux mois .
11 ) Deux vaches de même poids à chaque bout d'une balançoire, s'ennuient.

.. .................. ... ...... . ........... .....

B ) Arithmétique ........

a ) Une poule qui a de la fièvre pond des oeufs durs. Les oeufs durs sont vendus 1/3 plus cher que les oeufs frais.
Sachant qu'un oeuf frais est vendu 1,50 F, calculez le bénéfice que fait la poule fiévreuse sur une douzaine d'oeufs.

b ) Un cerf qui circule beaucoup la nuit et traverse des routes nationales très fréquentées, a décidé , pour éviter les accidents, d'électrifier ses bois.
Il a mis une ampoule de 20 watts à chacun de ses 12 andouillers.
Quel est le poids de la batterie que le cerf devra porter en bandoulière.
La batterie pèse 1,5kg pour 24 watts. Son poids est proportionnel au nombre de watts..

c ) Dans la même position depuis 1507, la Joconde a des crampes et souhaiterait étirer les bras . Les dimensions du cadre : 77 cm de haut sur 53 cm de large, ne lui permettent pas.
Quelle doit être la surface du tableau pour que la Joconde puisse étendre ses bras horizontalement , sachant qu'elle a une envergure de 1,80m ?....

d ) L'éléphant a attrapé un gros rhume, il éternue et se mouche sans arrêt. Il faut lui changer son mouchoir toutes les demi-heures.
En imaginant que son rhume dure 8 jours, calculez en hectares , ares et centiares, la surface totale des mouchoirs que l'éléphant va utiliser. Un mouchoir d'éléphant est un carré de 6 mètres de côté. .

Hello Violet
Thanks for this brainstorming !!!!

2. Who is the father ? He asked to the swallow which was sitting on.
3. Bernard, the Maurice's alligator was still thoughtful in front of the Niagara falls, wasn't it.
4. The Giraffe which is suffering from a cervico brachial neuralgia will have to wear a platen machine during six months. The poor !
5.If you come on my knees, my sweet, says the owl to the louse, I'll throw you no more stones but you'll have toys, my gem.
6.The happy Hellenistic received a Corinthian big top on the corner of the face. What a blow !
7. This whale is fresh, its look is bright and it doesn't look down when it is looked at.
8. The king and the queen haven't succeded in having neither a dolphin nor a salmon.
9. I asked to the carp how long it planned to remain locked into its dumbness.It didn't answer back me.
10. The vet forbade the trout whose tail he plastered to return into the water before two months.
11. Two same weight cows on the each end of the see-saw are boring

B ARITHMETIC

a. A hen which has fever lays hard boiled eggs. The hard boiled eggs are sold 1/3 more expensifly than the fresh eggs.
Knowing that one fresh egg is sold 1,50 F calculate the benefit that is made by the feverish hen from one dozen eggs.

b. A stag which moves a lot a night along and crosses very frequented national road, decided, to avoid the accidents, to electrify its woods.
It puts a 20 watts bulb on each of its anthers.
How heavy is the battery that the stag will have to carry over the shoulder?
The battery weights 1,5 Kg for 24 watts. Its weight is proportional to the watts number.

c. In the same position since 1507, the Joconde has some cramps and would like to strech her arms.
The frame dimensions : 77 cm high on 53 cm wide, don't allow her.
Which has to be the surface of the picture so that the Joconde can strech her arms horizontally, knowing she has a wingspan of 1,80m ?

d. The elephant has caught a big cold, it sneezes ans wipes one 's nose non stop. Its tissue has to be changed every half hours.
Imagining that its cold lastes during 8 days, calculate in hectares, ares and centiares, the total surface of tissues that the elephant will use. One elephant tissue is a 6 square metres.

B ) Arithmetic
a) A hen which has high temperature lays hard boiled eggs. Hard boiled eggs are 1/3 more expensive than fresh eggs. Knowing that a fresh egg is sold for 15p, work out the feverish hen's profit on a dozen eggs.
　
b) A deer which moves around a lot during the night and crosses very busy main roads, decided to light up its antlers to prevent accidents. It put a 20 watt light bulb on each of its tines. What is the weight of the battery the deer needs to strap over its shoulder. A 1.5kg battery provides 24 watts. Weight is proportional to the number of watts...

...Is it a joke? No, it's real!
Lien internet

*** Arithmétiquement, impossible de trouver la solution, dear violet, puisque nous ne connaissons pas le nombre d'andouillers du deer!

c) After being in the same position since 1507, Mona Lisa has cramps and would like to stretch her arms. However the frame's measurements, 77 cm high x 53 cm wide, won't allow her to. Knowing her arm span is 1.80m, what should the surface area of the painting be for the Mona Lisa to be able to stretch her arms?...

d) The elephant caught a heavy cold and can't stop sneezing and blowing its nose. It needs to change its handkerchief every half-hour. Assuming the cold lasts for 8 days, work out in hectares, ares and centiares, the total area of handkerchief the elephant will use. An elephant's handkerchief is a square with side lenght of 6m.

Merci violet, je t'enverrai les images par MP !

Hello Violet and thank you for this sharp exercise !

Here is the first part of it...

A – Grammar

1) « Oh, drat ! Who's cut the cat's tail with a pair of pruning shears ? » - « The gardener has ! »

2) « Who is the dad ? » he asked the sitting on swallow.

3) Bernard, Maurice's alligator, glazed pensively at the Niagara Falls, didn't it ?

4) The giraffe which is suffering from cervical-brachial neuralgia, will have to wear a surgical collar for six months. Poor little thing !

5) « If you come onto my lap, my dear » the owl said to the louse, « I won't throw pebbles at you any longer but I'll give you some toys, my pet. »

6) A Corinthian capital fell down hitting the cheerful Hellenist on his face. What a blow !

7) This whale is fresh with sharp eyes and not looking down when watched.

8) The king and the queen have failed on their attempt to give birth to a dauphin or...a salmon.

9) I asked the carp how long it intended to remain obstinately silent. But no reply.

10) The vet prescribed that the truit whose tail he'd put in a cast shouldn't go back to the water before two months.

11) Two cows with the same weight, each one at one end of a see-saw, are getting bored...
(Does anybody know how to make the two cows sit down onto the see-saw? That's where the trouble lies...)

To be continued...as soon as possible!

- Time's up Lakata!

- Voilààààà ! Voilàààà ! I'm coming !

B) Arithmetic.

a) A hen which is running a temperature is laying hard-boiled eggs. These ones are sold one third more expensive than fresh eggs. Given that a new-laid egg is sold 1.50 francs, work out the profit made by the feverish hen on a dozen eggs.

b) A stag which roves around a lot during the night has to cross very busy main roads. So it's planned to electrify its antlers in order to prevent accidents. That's why it's put a 20-watt bulb on each of its tines. What weight is the battery it will have to sling over its shoulders ? A 1.5 kg battery gives 24 watts and weighs in proportion to the number of watts.

c) In the same position since 1507, Mona Lisa is getting cramp and would like to put her arms out straight. Alas, the frame which is 77 centimetres high by 53 centimetres wide doesn't allow her to. What should be the area of the painting to enable Mona Lisa to stretch her arms horizontally, given her span is 1.80metres ?

d) The elephant has caught a heavy cold and can't help sneezing and blowing its nose without stopping. Its handkerchief needs changing every half-hour. Assuming its cold lasts eight days, work out in hectares, ares and centiares the total area of the handkerchiefs which are to be used by the elephant. An elephant's hankie is 36 square metres in area.

Cette histoire n'est pas un "poisson d'avril"...la preuve avec cet éléphant paré d'un gigantesque mouchoir de Cholet !

P.S. Je ne donnerai pas les solutions (quand elles existent !) car j'ai bien trop peur de me tromper. Je laisse ce soin à dear Marsou...

Thank you so much, Violet , for these funny exercises. The second one took me much more time than the first one since I had never been used to...using the arithmetical vocabulary when teaching...Better late than never...

B) A deer which is used to strolling by night and crossing over busy A roads, made the decision to electrify its antlers to avoid accidents. It put a 20-watt bulb on every one of its antler.
What is the battery weight the deer will have to strap over its shoulder ?
The battery weighs 1.5 kg for 24 watts . Its weight is proportional to the number of watts .
C) In the same position since 1507, the Mona Lisa has got cramps and would like to stretch her arms. Because of the frame dimensions (77cm in height and 53 cm wide), she can't do it .
What should the surface area of the painting be for the Mona Lisa can stretch her arms horizontally, given that her stature is 1.80 m ?
D) The elephant has caught a cold . It keeps on sneezing and blowing its nose . Its handkerchief needs changing every half hour.
Considering its cold goes on for 8 days, convert the total area of handkerchiefs used by the elephant into hectares, ares and centiares . An elephant's handkerchief is a square whose length is 6 meters .

Good evening, dear all . All yours for a good while , after a busy day.

While enjoying this :Lien internet

Arithmetics

-- a ) A hen which has a temperature lays hard boiled eggs. Its hard boiled eggs are sold 1/3 ( one third) dearer than fresh eggs ( new laid eggs ). Assuming a fresh egg is sold 1.50F ( it doesn't mean 1,50 Fahrenheit, but one franc fifty ), you will calculate the benefit the feverish hen does for a dozen eggs.

- Comment faire ?
Je calcule ( pensez donc !)le bénéfice par oeuf dur et je multiplie le chiffre obtenu par 12.

Le bénéfice de la poule fiévreuse :
Bénéfice par oeuf :
1,5 X 1/3 = 0,50 franc
Bénéfice par douzaine :
0,50 X 12 = 6 francs.

-- b ) A stag ( red deer) is keen on night moves ( rambles)
; thus it often finds itself going across very busy main roads ( A roads, that is true for a British one , dear marsu )and it finds it much too dangerous. Therefore, he has made his mind up ( has come to the decision *)to electrify its antlers in order to avoid accidents.
It has fixed a 20- watt bulb on each of his 12 antlers .
How heavy will the battery set it will have to carry over its shoulders be ? The battery set weighs 1.5 kg ( one point five kilo or a kilo and a half ). Its weight is proportional to the number of watts.

Comment faire ?
Une règle de trois ( mais bien sûr ).
Nombre de kg pour 1 watt.
Nombre de kg pour 20 watts.
Nombre de kg pour 12X 20 watts.

Le cerf électrifié :
Poids d'une batterie pour 1 watt :
1,5 : 24 = 0,0625 kg
Poids d'une batterie pour 20 watts :
0,0625 X 20 = 1,25 kg
Poids d'une batterie pour 12 X 20 watts :
12 X 1,25 = 15 kg.

-- c ) Being stuck in the same position ever since (year)1507 ( fifteen hundred and seven), Mon(n)a Lisa has got cramps and dreams of stretching her arms out (actually).
The frame which is 77 (seventyseven) cm tall and 53 (fiftythree) cm wide doesn't give her any chance to do so.
What must the painting's surface be for Mon(n)a Lisa to set her arms free horizontally , assuming her wingspan( arm span, too) is 1.80 m ( one point eighty meter).

Comment faire ?
Pour que la Joconde puisse étendre ses bras , il faut que la largeur du tableau soit au moins égale à son envergure.
Le tableau étant un rectangle, je calcule ( believe me )la surface du tableau en multipliant cette nouvelle largeur par la hauteur qui est rerstée la même .

La Joconde a des crampes dans les bras :
Nouvelle largeur du tableau :
1,8m
Surface du nouveau tableau :
1,8 X 0,77 = 1,386 m2 ( but da Vinci had made it clear saying ' stand still, will you ?' or ' sit still' by the way !))

-- d ) That elephant has caught such a bad cold ! It sneezes and blows its nose (trunk )ceaselessly .It needs to be given a new handkerchief every half hour .
If you imagine ( and that is easy ) its cold lasts for 8 days ( = its cold is 8 days' long), you will calculate (find out) in hectares (ha), ares (a) and centiares (ca) the entire surface of the handkerchiefs the elephant is going to use .
A handkerchief is a square of 6-meter sides.

Comment faire ?
Je calcule ( je suis partante )le nombre de mouchoirs que l'éléphant va utiliser pendant la durée de son rhume, en convertissant les jours en demi-heures.
Je calcule la surface d'un mouchoir d'éléphant .( ' Et, pourquoi pas ?')
Je multiplie la surface d'un mouchoir par le nombre de mouchoirs utilisés et je convertis ( woilà ) en hectares, ares et centiares.

Les mouchoirs de l'éléphant :
Nombre de demi-heures en 8 jours :
24 X 8 X 2= 384 demi-heures.
Surface d'un mouchoir déléphant :
6 X 6 = 36 m2.
Surface totale des mouchoirs :
36 X 384 = 13 824 m2
Soit :
1 hectare, 38 ares et 24 centiares. ( see lakata , that's it )

La Joconde est l'un des rares tableaux attribués de façon certaine à Léonard de Vinci.

Le voleur était l'Italien Vincenzo Peruggia, un vitrier qui avait participé aux travaux de mise sous verre des tableaux les plus importants du musée. Il conserve le tableau pendant deux ans dans sa chambre à Paris, il était caché dans le double fond d'une valise de bois blanc, sous son lit. De retour en Italie, il propose de le revendre le 10 décembre 1913 à un antiquaire florentin, Alfredo Geri, qui avait passé une petite annonce pour acheter des œuvres d'art et qui donne l'alerte. Geri ayant prévenu la police, Peruggia est arrêté dans la chambre de son hôtel (rebaptisé par la suite hôtel Gioconda), et n'est condamné qu'à 18 mois de prison, la presse italienne saluant son patriotisme. Le 4 janvier 1914, après des expositions à Firenze et à Rome, le tableau revient solennellement au Louvre[8],[6] où il est désormais placé sous une surveillance accrue . Son prix est inestimable.

Hello, incredible and hilarious lakata ( impayable' in French slang , quand ' ça te prend !' ), these days ! I love it ! Where on earth did you fetch( pick) this accurate ' gif' ? Well done and thanks a lot for your comments and humour ! Did you ever think of ' Satyricon' by Petrone and his ' Beware of the dog' . Look at the warning !

Dear mamou, too.

Ordre corinthien : repris abondamment par les Romains, il est une variété plus ornée de l'ordre ionique. On le reconnaît facilement grâce aux feuilles d'acanthe de son chapiteau. Il tire son origine de la ville de Corinthe en Grèce où il est apparu voici 2400 ans.
