Reading
The gentle touch

Two police officers, a man and a woman, both young and blond and as gorgeous as everyone else in this city, were talking softly and with
sympathy to a boy of about seventeen who had clearly taken the kind of substance that turns ones brain into an express elevator to Pluto.
Disorientated by this sudden journey through the cosmos, he had apparently stumbled and cracked his head; a trickle of blood ran from
above his hairline to his cheek.
The police officers were wearing the smartest commando-style uniforms I have ever seen. They looked as if between them they could handle
any emergency, from outbreaks of Lassa fever to disarming a nuclear submarine.
And the thing is, this was probably the biggest thing they would have to deal with all evening. The Danes are almost absurdly law-abiding.
The most virulent crime in the country is bicycle theft. In the year for which I happen to have the facts, there were six murders in
Copenhagen, compared with 205 in Amsterdam, a city of similar size, and 1 688 in New York. The city is so safe that Queen Margarethe
used to walk from Amalienborg Palace to the shops every morning to buy flowers and vegetables just like a normal citizen. I once asked a
Dane who guarded her in such circumstances, and he looked at me with surprise and replied, Why, we all do, which I thought was rather
sweet [].

I think one of the teachers that I will never forget is a teacher that was called Miss Brown, and she used to teach sports at school. And I used

to absolutely loath her. Shes lived with me for the rest of my life, I think. She just used to make my life hell. When I went swimming with the
class she used to give us ten seconds to get dressed and dried after the class. So she would count down from ten and wed have to arrive in
the next class by the time she got to one. So you can imagine wed all arrive with wet hair and half dressed and I hated her.

Well, my favourite day of the week is Monday, which I know may seem a bit strange, but its because I like going out on Monday evenings and
it always feels a bit naughty because youve got work the next day.

Comment:
Reflection:
The arguments that you defended are not very well-founded. You didn't quote many reputed authors in the theorical part of your
assignment.
You didn't specify content that students will have to learn (grammar, vocabulary, functions, culture...) nor the timing of each
activity.

Structure and organization:


The organization of the assignment is good, following the parameters given.
Writing and linguistic correctness are appropriate.
There is no reference list at the end of the assignment.
I deeply encourage you to check the International APA Guide in order to know how to quote, among other facts.
Last but not least, all the bibliography must be explicitly integrated into your work and in the other way around.
