#855 Léon, Sarah's Smash Shack, Stocks Soar

Wow--what a roller coaster ride with the Stock market! Rise and Fall--rise and fall-- up and down up and down...or as Sarah says "plunge" and "soar."

#856 ESL Forum, Singing English, Busy Ringo Starr, Stocks Plunge

This is the Daily English Show and I approve of it for class--of course--Sarah rocks! Did you know that Ringo was refusing autographs now? Also, Sarah's word for the day is "plunge" as in the stock market--and pay attention to the rude person that Sarah encounters...

Today is NASA's 50th anniversary and today's lesson was on the International Space Station. Here are the regulations that Haillet typed today for the astronauts in training (simulation) project in class today. This is what you decided:
Grammar Focus: Passive Form Sentences

Examples
1) Food will be selected by astronauts.
2) Astronauts should be taught interpersonal skills.
3) Getting along must be encouraged among all team members.
4) Some people (private citizens) can be transported to the space station.
5) The crew members had better not be emotionally involved during the space mission.
6) Technical Instructions have got to be followed by the crew.
7) Special meals don’t have to be eaten by all astronauts.
