Anglais -Terminal 2016 - Spaces and Exchanges

SPACES AND EXCHANGES

I’m going to talk about the notion of spaces and exchanges.

First of all I would like to give a deffinition of spaces : an interval of distance or time between two point, objet or event.

Secondly, Exchange : the acte of exchanging

(Migration :People migrate for many different reasons : economic, social, political, environnemental.)

To illustrate the Notion I chose the front cover of the time Magasin.

I’ve divided my presentation into two parts. First I’m going to describe the cover and secondly I’m going to explain it’s message of the magasin. And Finally I will give  you my opinion.

1. Now, lett’s turn to point one, This document is the front cover of time magazine.

It’s an American magazine.

This is a special serie as shown by the caption above the name of the magazine.

At the bottom of the page, we can read in white letters «theNewFace of America »

The big red letters used the Time and the white ones at the bottom draw our attention.

The constrast between me red and the white colours I the size and the typeface of the letters are used to catch our attention.

In the background, we can see several small pictures these photos are probably in black and white. All the faces are different (on the photos).

They all seem to be from different ethnic backgrounds.

On the left hand side,there is a catch phrase to attract readers.

1. Let’s move on to the seconde part which is the message of the magazine.

The different ethnic in the background represents the migration in America.

People migrate for many different reasons, these reasons can be economic, social, political or envirronemental for exemple to find work or to escape the war or to touch the american dream.

The Time shows that today America have a new face. This new face represent a melting pot that come from migration and immigration.

To sum up, the Time have tried to show the evolution of america and I tottaly approuved this message. I have the feeling that to day the France is in the same evolution. To my mind the new face of america is also the new face of many other developed countries.
