Bonjour,
je suis actuellement en Terminale et je passe mes oraux d'anglais en avril
voici ce que j'ai commencé à composer pour la Notion "Lieux et Formes de pouvoir" , mais je ne suis pas sûre de respecter la méthode de l'oral... Voila pourquoi j'aimerais que vous me donniez votre avis et que vous corrigiez mes fautes ( désolé je suppose qu'il y en a beaucoup).
Mercii d'avance !!
I am going to talk about the notion « Places and forms of power ». First let me give you a quick defintion of power. Power is the ability to exercise control on somebody or on a group. It's a force that can be used in many ways , with violence or without , by a group, a government or how we saw in class , by a simple individual. Power is not necessarily represented by a symbolic place, and leaders who owns it are not always honest. Unfortunately they may abuse their power and corrupt others. That's why in this case there may be serious consequences. So througt the example of mind control techniques (art of manipulating people), we can raise the following question : What are the limits of power and in what ways power can be abused ?
Last year we studied the power of words with Jim Jone's last speech to the people's temple in November 1978. A speech that led to the collective suicide of 1200 cultists. In fact, the US constitution guarantees freedom of religion which allowed the preacher Jim Jones to create his own church (or sect) in California. It's likely The followers joined the sect because they were vulerable people. So If they had been well intragrated into American society , they wouldn't have been looking for a father substitute. One day he told his community that the end of the world was near for them to consent to go in Guyana Jungle and build JonesTown.When the Congressman Leo Ryan came to investigate, they shot him. Jim jones pronounced a speech whose words were carefully chosen into commiting suicide by drinking poison what he called a revolutionnary act. Along the speech, he mentioned the poison as a medecine potion and he kept repeating three personnal pronoms especially we, I and They. He used « we » in order to make them feel they are a close-knit community. It makes it difficult for people to impose their ideas and react as individual. He used «I know » to show people that he has the knowlegde of what will happened. Lastly, to evoke the ennemy ,he used «They » without ever specifying who they are in order to give the feeling that danger was everywhere. So people felt powerless and took refuge under their leader. We can note that Jim Jones whos was a good speaker abused his power by brainwashing his credulous followers.

Hello !
I am going to talk about the notion « Places and forms of power ». First let me give you a quick defintion of power. Power is the ability to exercise control on somebody or on a group. It's a force that can be used in many ways , with violence or without , by a group, a government or how we saw in class , by a simple individual. Power is not necessarily represented by a symbolic place, and leaders who owns it = (Grammaire ET construction maladroite) are not always honest. Unfortunately they may abuse their power and corrupt others. That's why in this case there may be serious consequences. So througt the example of mind control techniques ( XXX art of manipulating people), we can raise the following question : What are the limits of power and in what ways power can (revoir la construction)be abused ?
Last year we studied the power of words with Jim Jone's last speech to the people's temple in November 1978. A speech that led to the collective suicide of 1,200 cultists. In fact, the US constitution guarantees freedom of religion which allowed the preacher Jim Jones to create his own church (or sect) in California. It's likely The followers (revoir la construction avec le sujet personnel!)joined the sect because they were vulerable people. So If they had been well intragrated into American society , they wouldn't have been looking for a father substitute. One day he told his community that the end of the world was near for them to consent to go inXX Guyana Jungle and build JonesTown.When the Congressman Leo Ryan came to investigate, they shot him. Jim jones pronounced a speech whose words were carefully chosen into commiting suicide by drinking poison what he called a revolutionnary act. Along the speech, he mentioned the poison as a medecine potion and he kept repeating three personnal pronoms especially "we", "I" and "They". He used « we » in order to make them feel they are a close-knit community ("we" includes himself!). It makes it difficult for people to impose their ideas and react as individualS. He used «I know » to show people that he has the knowlegde of what will happened.
Lastly, to evoke the ennemy ,he used «They » without ever specifying who they are in order to give the feeling that danger was everywhere. So people felt powerless and took refuge under their leader.

Bon courage.

Mon analyse du premier document répond-t-elle aux attentes de l'épreuve ? Ou je l'ai trop décrite sans assez l'exploiter?

Bonjour Winni😀
Ma dernière remarque montrait que l'attente des examinateurs est une SYNTHESE de l'étude de documents étudiés dans l'année, avec une approche non pas chronologique ( je décris, puis et surtout commente) d'iun document après l'autre, MAIS une description commentée de " thèmes" ( communs ou opposés) répondant, si possible à une problématique commune à tous les documents, chacun étant utilisé pour répondre au probléme posé initialement.
C.est pourquoi il me m'est pas vraiment possible de répondre à la question posée en mp.
La méthode n'y est pas. Il ne faut pas énumérer les documents successivement, mais les "posséder" suffisamment bien pour trouver une problématique commune à tous ( à l'intérieur du thème annoncé) , avoir fait un plan logique, une démonstration qui amène à la résolution. ( ou parfois à l.absence de possibilité de réponse - ce qui est dommage -... et ouvrant toujours sur un commentaire personnel "branching out", une ouverture sur un probléme actuel. J'ai du mal à imaginer que votre professeur,( ou cours,) ne vous ait pas expliqué et montré la méthode.
Dans tous les cas, COURAGE! 😀
