A romantic fairy tale: the two tricks of the brave hedgehog
Once upon a time there was a nice green valley plenty of rabbits. They lived safely and thoughtlessly till the arrival of a cruel fox. Knowing many tricks, this fox in short time catched almost all rabbits except a nice sweet she-rabbit. After many days keeping hidden in the middle of the wood, the nice she-rabbit was feeling alone. The same day she was leaving her hiding-place and abandoning forever her beloved valley, she bumped into a brave hedgehog. "Ahi" she cry out, prickled by the hedgehog, but at once, in spite of all his prickles, she falled in love with him. "Pay attention and hide you, brave hedgehog, because the cruel fox knows many tricks and can catch you". "Don't worry, my darling" answered the hedgehog, who was not indifferent to the nice she-rabbit. "I knows only two tricks, but, believe me, they are enough". "Which are these two tricks? asked the curious nice she-rabbit. "The first one is the capacity to roll up in to a ball completely surrounded by prickles, and the second one...." "And the second one?" asked again the nice she-rabbit.
"The second one is the way to make love without pricking. Came here my darling and I will show you how it works". After some days of passion, the brave hedgehog left the valley and the nice she-rabbit remained again alone in the middle of the hood. Hungry and fed up, also the cruel fox left the valley.
After few weeks, the nice she-rabbit gave birth to seven nice small rabbits. The next day she checked anxiously and no one of them was covered by prickles, but she felt sure they inheritated something else from their father.
When reached the age, the bravest among the young rabbits decided to leave the valley looking for a wife. In short time he became so popular among the she-rabbits, that many of them decided to follow him to know also his brothers.
So, thanks to the second trick of the brave hedgehog, the nice green valley was populated again by many rabbits.

In Search of Nessie
Hello everybody! I have found out some news about monster creatures that live in the waters of Garda lake. According to the legends, they are called Anguane or Agane. They are female and they have webbed hands and feet. They sing among swamps and groves of reeds. At moonlight they dance naked on the beach, then they plunge in the waves. They can lead men to perdition. Such an ability is a challenge to devils, which are always hunting Anguane, possibly with the help of humans. They say that you might be even awarded by the devil if the hunt is successful. So, why not to try?Enrico

E-tivity 2 - "Lost in translation"
Hi there everyone!
Last week, skimming through Il Corriere della Sera newspaper, I found a couple of very interesting articles about Italian adults who are desperately trying to learn English.
Have a look at these!
- L'inglese in un mese? Londra processa Capello
- Un consiglio: buttarsi, lo fece anche il Trap
- "Uno studio intensivo e audiolibri"
- Problems hanging on to every word as manager gets lost in translation
- As England's new manager says Ciao, it's clear his grasp of English is not so Fabio!
Do you think Fabio Capello will be able to speak English in a month as he declared in front of the British media?... Leave your comment here!
And what about you? Share your experience in learning English.
