Dusty Springfield - In private
Take your time and tell me
Where you lie
I realise
That we've been found out this time
We should stay together
If we can
But what you've planned
Means there's a difference between
What you're gonna say
In private
You still want my love
We're in this together
And what you're gonna do
In public
Say you were never in love
That you can remember
So discreet
I never tried to meet
Your friends or interfere
I took a back seat between
And what you gonna say
In private?
You still want my love
We're in this together
And what you're gonna do
In public
Say you were never in love
That you can remember
What you gonna say, ay
When you run back to your wife?
I guess it's just the story of my life
What you gonna say?
So take your time
And tell me
Where did you learn
Oh, I may publicise
That there's a difference between
What you're gonna say
In private?
You still want my love
We're in this together
And what you're gonna do
In public
Say you were never in love
That you can remember
Tell me what you gonna say
In private?, ooh, ooh, ooh
What you gonna say?
What you gonna do?
Baby, what you gonna say?

my favourite things
Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things
Cream colored ponies and crisp apple streudels
Doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
These are a few of my favorite things
Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes
Silver white winters that melt into springs
These are a few of my favorite things
When the dog bites
When the bee stings
When I'm feeling sad
I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don't feel so bad

So we gotta say goodbye for the summer
baby I promise you this
I'll send you all my love
every day in a letter
Sealed with a kiss
Yes it's gonna be a cold, lonely summer
but I feel the emptyness
I'll send you all my dreams
every day in a letter
sealed with a kiss
I'll see you in the sunlight
I'll hear your voice everywhere
I'll run to tenderly hold you
but baby you won't be there
I don't wanna say goodbye for the summer
knowing the loneliness
so let us take a pledge to meet in September
and seal it with a kiss
Yes it's gonna be a cold lonely summer

There can be only one
This rage that lasts a thousand years
Will soon be done
This flame that burns inside of me
Im here in secret harmonies
Its a kind of magic
The bell that rings inside your mind
Is challenging the doors of time
Its a kind of magic
Its a kind of magic
The rage that lasts a thousand years
Will soon be will soon be
Will soon be done
This is a kind of magic
There can be only one
This rage that lasts a thousand years
Will soon be done-done
Magic - it's a kind of magic
Its a kind of magic
Magic magic magic magic
Ha ha ha it's magic
Its a kind of magic
Love me tender,
Love me sweet,
Never let me go.
You have made my life complete,
And I love you so.
Love me tender,
Love me true,
All my dreams fulfilled.
For my darlin I love you,
And I always will.
Love me tender,
Love me long,
Take me to your heart.
For it's there that I belong,
And well never part.
Love me tender,
Love me dear,
Tell me you are mine.
Ill be yours through all the years,
Till the end of time.
(when at last my dreams come true
Darling this I know
Happiness will follow you
Everywhere you go).

sweet child o mine
She's got a smile that it seems to me
Reminds me of childhood memories
Where everything
Was as fresh as the bright blue sky
Now and then when I see her face
She takes me away to that special place
And if I'd stare too long
I'd probably break down and cry
Sweet child o' mine
Sweet love of mine
She's got eyes of the bluest skies
As if they thought of rain
I hate to look into those eyes
And see an ounce of pain
Her hair reminds me of a warm safe place
Where as a child I'd hide
And pray for the thunder
And the rain
To quietly pass me by
Sweet child o' mine
Sweet love of mine
Where do we go
Where do we go now
Where do we go
Sweet child o' mine

Problemas que os surgen a veces al estar ubicados en un IES: los viernes en época de exámenes suele estar cerrado por la tarde, al igual que algunos jueves previos a festivos.
TODOS:
La situación de la EOI de Lorca: Casi veinte años funcionando y sin centro propio. A la EOI de Caravaca ya le han concedido un centro y a nosotros no nos dan respuesta.
Los administrativos (Isabel) tienen de atención al público de mañana y los lunes y martes por la tarde.
4. ASOCIACIÓN DE ALUMNOS.
La EOI de Lorca tiene asociación de alumnos, ha estado unos años paralizada y queremos intentar que resurja. Las ventajas q puede tener que un centro tenga Asoc. de alumnos son: reivindicar cosas, organizar concursos para recaudar dinero y luego hacer alguna actividad …

7. CORRESPONDENCIA ENTRE NIVELES.
Al finalizar en NB tendrÃan un nivel A2 del Marco Común europeo.
Al finalizar el NI: nivel B1 del Marco

Al finalizar un nivel se les da un certificado que tienen que solicitar en la secretaria del centro.
8. PROGRAMACIONES POR DEPARTAMENTOS.
Las programaciones están incluidas en la Programación General Anual y ya las pueden consultar. Habrá una copia impresa en nuestras aulas o en reprografÃa con los contenidos de cada nivel para quien quiera consultarlas. También las pondremos en la web de la EOI de Lorca.

- Orden de 12 de mayo de 2008 por la que se regula la evaluación

11. Ruegos y preguntas.
(Resumen)Las PROES -prácticas de refuerzo oral y escrito- no son obligatorias pero si recomendables. Se organizan por niveles rotativos y se complementa los temas desarrollados en clase. Son 1 práctica eficaz para los exámenes.
La biblioteca está disponible y cualquier profesor en horario de atención al alumno puede prestaros 1 libro.
Acordamos sondear a los alumnos para ver la posible respuesta ante la asociación y el viaje de estudios. Establecemos el mail como modo de contacto más inmediato (además del tablón de anuncios).

the great pretender
Oh yes I'm the great pretender (ooh ooh)
Pretending I'm doing well (ooh ooh)
My need is such I pretend too much
I'm lonely but no one can tell
Oh yes I'm the great pretender (ooh ooh)
Adrift in a world of my own (ooh ooh)
I play the game but to my real shame
You've left me to dream all alone
Too real is this feeling of make believe
Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal
Ooh ooh yes I'm the great pretender (ooh ooh)
Just laughing and gay like a clown (ooh ooh)
I seem to be what I'm not (you see)
I'm wearing my heart like a crown
Pretending that you're still around
Yeah ooh hoo
Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal
Oh yes I'm the great pretender
Just laughing and gay like a clown (ooh ooh)
I seem to be what I'm not you see
I'm wearing my heart like a crown
Pretending that you're
Pretending that you're still around

Classic Roast Turkey
This turkey is your basic no-fuss, delicious, standard turkey recipe you'll come back to again and again.
Ingredients
* 2 large yellow onions, cut in 1/2-inch rounds
* 10- to 12-pound turkey
* 4 to 5 cups stuffing
* 3 medium carrots, peeled and cut in thirds crosswise
* Coarse salt and ground black pepper
Cooking Instructions
1. Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Place onions, neck, and heart in bottom of roasting pan. Fold wing tips under bird and place turkey breast side up on top of onions.
2. Add stuffing to front and back cavities of turkey, making sure not to pack it tightly. Sprinkle turkey with salt and pepper. Add carrots around turkey.
3. After 2 hours, add 2 cups of water to the bottom of the roasting pan.
4. Roast about 3 hours, or until instant read thermometer in thickest part of thigh registers 170 degrees F. Let rest 1/2 hour before carving.
5. Gravy: Pour liquid from roasting pan into measuring cup. Discard onions, carrots, heart, and neck. Skim off fat from liquid and pour all but 1/4 cup back into roasting pan. For every 1/2 cup of liquid (what's in the pan and what is set aside as the reserved liquid) use 1 tablespoon flour. Stir that total amount of flour into the 1/4 cup of cooled, reserved liquid, and mix together well. (Note: You'll be stirring enough flour that is proportionate to all the existing liquid into that 1/4 cup of cooled liquid.) Heat the liquid in the roasting pan over medium heat, and slowly add the flour mixture to it, stirring constantly. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook 2 minutes, whisking constantly. Adjust salt and pepper to taste.

I’m trouble
Fake money
Personality theft
Unforgettable
Unforgettable, that's what you are
Unforgettable though near or far
Like a song of love that clings to me
How the thought of you does things to me
Never before has someone been more
Unforgettable in every way
And forever more, that's how you'll stay
That's why, darling, it's incredible
That someone so unforgettable
Thinks that I am unforgettable too
Unforgettable in every way
And forever more, that's how you'll stay
That's why, darling, it's incredible
That someone so unforgettable
Thinks that I am unforgettable too

everlasting love
Everlasting Love
Robert Knight
(Gason/Gayden)
Hearts go astray
Leaving hurt when they go
I went away
Just when you needed me so
Filled with regret
I come back begging you
Forgive, forget
Where's the love we once knew
Open up your eyes
Then you'll realize
Here I stand with my
Everlasting Love
Need you by my side
Girl to be my bride
You'll never be denied
Everlasting Love
From the very start
Open up your heart
Be a lasting part of
Everlasting Love
Where life's really flows
No-one really knows
'Till someone's there to
Show the way to
Everlasting Love
Like the sun it shines
Endlessly it shines
You always will be mine
It's eternal love
Whenever loves are gone
Ours will be strong
We'd have our very own
Everlasting Love
Open up your eyes
Then you'll realize
Here I stand with my
Everlasting Love
Need you by my side
Girl to be my bride
You'll never be denied
Everlasting Love

Bienvenidos NB2 de Alhama de Murcia
Atentos a partir de ahora x q comienza la acción:
Grammar bank
Exercise 1C
A
It isn’t raining
Hey! You’re standing on foot
They aren’t playing very well today
What are you studying at the moment?
We’re thinking of you.
Is she wearing make-up?
They are making a big mistake.
IS you brother working in London now?
She’s talking to her father at the moment.
B
The girl in the painting is playing the guitar
My dog’s not dangerous. He isn’t biting
Why are you wearing sunglasses? It isn’t raining
You can turn off the radio. I’m not listening to it
I need to go to the bank. I DO not have any money
Be careful! The baby’s putting that pencil in her mouth
DO you usually cook at the weekend?
No, we usually eat out
What are you doing here?
I’m meeting Emma. Look there she is.
Exercise 1 D
A
It’s the person who serves you in a café
They’re people who make you laugh
It’s a machine which cuts the grass.
It’s an animal which lives in the sea and has eight legs
It’s a room where people try on clothes
He’s the person who helps you with your luggage
It’s a kind of food which keeps vampires away.
B
That’s the dog which always barks at night
She’s the woman who lives next door to me
That’s the shop where I bought my dress
He’s the actor who was in Friends
They’re the children who broke my window
This is the restaurant where they do great pasta
That is the switch which controls the central heating
He’s the teacher who teaches my sister
That’s the room where we have our meetings.

This is the life: Amy McDonald
That's part of what we did on Wednesday. Think about the answer at the bottom for Monday.
Oh the wind whistles down
The cold dark street tonight
And the people they were dancing to the music vibe
And the boys chase the girls with the curls in their hair
While the shy tormented youth sit way over there
And the songs they get louder
Each one better than before
And you're singing the songs
Thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and you're head feels twice the size
Where you're gonna go? Where you're gonna go?
Where you'regonna sleep tonight?
And you're singing the songs
Thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and you're head feels twice the size
Where you're gonna go? Where you're gonna go?
Where you're gonna sleep tonight?
Where you're gonna sleep tonight?
So you're heading down the road in your taxi for four
And you're waiting outside Jimmy's front door
But nobody's in and nobody's home 'til four
So you're sitting there with nothing to do
Talking about Robert Riger and his motley crew
And where you're gonna go and where you're gonna sleep tonight
And you're singing the songs
Thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and you're head feels twice the size
Where you're gonna go? Where you're gonna go?
Where you're gonna sleep tonight?
And you're singing the songs
Thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and you're head feels twice the size
Where you're gonna go? Where you're gonna go?
Where you're gonna sleep tonight?

And you're singing the songs
Thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and you're head feels twice the size
Where you're gonna go? Where you're gonna go?
Where you're gonna sleep tonight?
And you're singing the songs
Thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and you're head feels twice the size
Where you're gonna go? Where you're gonna go?

Where you're gonna go? Where you're gonna go?

And you wake up in the morning and you're head feels twice the size
Where you're gonna go? Where you're gonna go?
Where you're gonna sleep tonight?
Where you're gonna sleep tonight?
What’s the song about?
Find a word that means:
1. To make a high or musical sound by blowing air out through your lips.
2. To quickly follow someone or something in order to catch them.
3. All the people who work on a ship or plane.
4. A group of people or things that are very different from each other and do not seem to belong together.(2 words)

Make or Do
Muchos hispano-parlantes tienen dudas con respecto al uso de estos dos verbos cuya traducción básica es "hacer, realizar". Veamos...
1. Usamos DO cuando hablamos de una actividad sin mencionar exactamente cuál es:
- What's Marta doing?
¿Qué está haciendo Marta?
- Are you doing anything special tonight?
¿Van a hacer algo en especial está noche?
2. DO se usa a menudo cuando hablamos de un trabajo o una tarea especÃfica. También se lo utiliza con la estructura DO + ING (ando, endo):
- Have you done your homework yet?
¿Ya has hecho tus deberes?
- It was a pleasure doing business with you.
Fue un placer hacer negocios contigo.
- Could you do some photocopying for me, please?
¿Podrias hacerme unas fotocopias, por favor?
3. Por lo general, MAKE tiene el significado de crear, fabricar o construir.
- We made a new design for the product based on suggestions.
Hicimos (Creamos) un nuevo diseño del producto basado en sugerencias.
- The company makes photographic equipment.
La empresa hace (fabrica) equipamiento fotográfico.
4. A menudo MAKE se usa con sustantivos relacionados con la conversación, los sonidos y los viajes:
CONVERSACION Y SONIDOS
make a complaint, make an enquiry, make a noise, make a remark
presentar un reclamo, hacer una consulta, hacer ruido, hacer un comentario
VIAJES
make a journey, make a trip, make a visit
hacer un traslado, hacer un viaje, hacer una visita
[JOURNEY: sólo desplazamiento de un lugar a otro; TRIP: incluye la estadÃa]
5. A veces MAKE y DO pueden ser intercambiables:
- They made an endurance test to the new Airbus double-decker.
Le realizaron una prueba de resistencia al nuevo Airbus doble-piso.
- They did an endurance test to the new Airbus double-decker.
Le realizaron una prueba de resistencia al nuevo Airbus doble-piso.
No obstante, existen muchas otras expresiones que no siguen las pautas o lineamientos arriba mencionados porque a veces su traducción al español no se corresponde con el verbo hacer. Por ello, es mejor memorizarlos o utilizar un diccionario cuando se tienen dudas.

fijar una cita, establecer un acuerdo, hacer un intento, optar,

Jamie Oliver has a feast planned for G20 leaders
Part of the script is below
Jamie Oliver will serve up a dinner for the G20 leaders which honours the best of British food.
The meal, prepared by young chefs from the his Fifteen restaurant, will begin with organic salmon from Shetland, served with samphire and sea kale, a selection of vegetables from Sussex, Surrey and Kent, and Irish soda bread.
For the main course, the celebrity chef will offer slow-roasted shoulder of lamb from the Elwy Valley in north Wales, with Jersey Royal potatoes, wild mushrooms and mint sauce.
Dessert will be the classic Bakewell tart and custard.
The vegetarian option will include a goat's cheese starter and lovage and potato dumplings for the main course.
Oliver said: "I'm very, very proud of my country and its food traditions and I know that the guests at Downing Street will be in for a real treat."
The chef's wife Jools is due to give birth to their third child imminently, but he is still planning to lead his team at Number 10. It is the third time he has cooked there.
