Reading Johanne K. Rowling

She was born on July 31 st in 1965 in Yate, England. As a child, Rowling often wrote fantasy stories which she frequently read to her sister. But Rowling has always written; her first book was called The Rabbit. “I was about six, and I haven’t stopped scribbling since.” She attended secondary school at Wyedean School and College, where her mother worked in the science department.

When she was a young teenager, her great-aunt gave her a copy of Jessica Mitford's autobiography, Hons and Rebels. Mitford became Rowling's heroine, and Rowling read all of her books.

In 1982, Rowling took the entrance exams for Oxford University but was not accepted and read for a BA in French and Classics at the University of Exeter. The University of Exeter is a public research university located in Exeter, South West England, United Kingdom.

Academia Michigan

Reading An advert in The Guardian led Rowling to move to Porto in Portugal to teach English as a foreign language. She taught at night, and began writing in the day. After eighteen months in Porto, she met Portuguese television journalist Jorge Arantes in a bar, and found they shared an interest in Jane Austen. They married on October 16 th in 1992 and their child, Jessica Isabel Rowling Arantes was born on July 27 th in 1993 in Portugal. The couple separated on November 17 th in 1993.

In December 1993, Rowling and her then-infant daughter moved to be near Rowling's sister in Edinburgh, Scotland. Like that of her own character, Harry Potter, J.K. Rowling’s life has the luster of a fairy tale. Divorced, she was living on public assistance in a tiny Edinburgh flat with her infant daughter.

Rowling wrote Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone at a table in a café during her daughter’s naps – and it was Harry Potter that rescued her. First, the Scottish Arts Council gave her a grant to finish the book.

After its sale to Bloomsbury (UK) and Scholastic Books, the accolades began to pile up.

Harry Potter won The British Book Awards Children’s Book of the Year, and the Smarties Prize, and rave reviews on both sides of the Atlantic. Book rights have been sold to England, France, Germany, Italy, Holland, Greece, Finland, Denmark, Spain, and Sweden.

A graduate of Exeter University, a teacher, and then an unemployed single parent, Rowling wrote Harry Potter when “I was very low, and I had to achieve something.

For Rowling, the change in her fortunes has been slightly surprising. But her daughter has no doubt about her mother’s new career: when asked what mothers do, she replies without hesitation, “Mothers Write!”

Reading John Ronald Reuel Tolkien

J.R.R. Tolkien was born in South Africa on January 3 rd in 1892 and he died on September 2 nd in 1973. He was an English writer, poet, philologist, and university professor who is best known as the author of the classic high-fantasy works The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings, and The Silmarillion. His family moved to Britain when he was about three years old. His father, however, died in South Africa of rheumatic fever before he could join them.

When Tolkien was eight years old, his mother converted To Roman Catholicism, and he remained a Catholic throughout his life. Mabel Tolkien was received into the Roman Catholic Church in 1900 despite vehement protests by her Baptist family, which stopped all financial assistance to her. In 1904, when J.R.R. Tolkien was 12, his mother died of acute diabetes at Fern Cottage in Rednal, which she was renting. She was then about 34 years of age, about as old as a person with diabetes mellitus type 1 could live without treatment — insulin would not be discovered until two decades later.

J.R. Tolkien married his childhood sweetheart, Edith, and they had four children. In 1914 the United Kingdom entered the First World War. Tolkien's time in combat was a terrible stress for Edith.

Academia Michigan

Reading Tolkien's first civilian job after World War I was at the Oxford English Dictionary, where he worked mainly on the history and etymology of words of Germanic origin beginning with the letter W.[67] In 1920, he took up a post asReader in English Language at the University of Leeds, and became the youngest professor there. In the 1920s, Tolkien undertook a translation of Beowulf, which he finished in 1926. He never published it. It was finally edited by his son and published in 2014, more than forty years after Tolkien's death and almost 90 years since its completion.

He served as the Rawlinson and Bosworth Professor of Anglo-Saxon and Fellow of Pembroke College, Oxford, from 1925 to 1945 and Merton Professor of English Language and Literature and Fellow of Merton College, Oxford from 1945 to 1959. He was at one time a close friend of C. S. Lewis—they were both members of the informal literary discussion group known as the Inklings. Tolkien was appointed a Commander of the Order of the British Empire by Queen Elizabeth II on 28 March 1972.

He wrote them letters each year as is from Santa Claus, and a selection of these was published in 1976 as “The Father Christmas Letters”. One of Tolkien’s sons became a Catholic priest. Tolkien was an advisor for the translation of the Roman Catholic Jerusalem Bible. As a professor of literature at Oxford University, Tolkien specialized in Old and Middle English and loved ancient pagan mythology. His first fantasy novel, “The Hobbit” appeared in 1937, and “The Lord of the Rings” in 1954-55.

Several others were published later, some posthumously. J.R. Tolkien died in 1973 at age 81, two years after his wife, and they are buried in the Catholic section of the Wolvercote Cementery in the suburbs of Oxford.

Conditionals Zero Conditional Certainty: We use zero conditional when the result of the condition is always true. We use the Simple Present Tense for Zero Conditional.

If Simple Present , Simple Present

First Conditional

Real Possibility: We are talking about the future. We are thinking about a particular condition or situation in the future, and the result of this condition. There is a real possibility that this condition will happen.

Second Conditional The second conditional is like the first conditional. We are still thinking about the future.

We are thinking about a particular condition in the future, and the result of this condition.

But there is not a real possibility that this condition will happen. For example, you do not have a lottery ticket. Is it possible to win? No! No lottery ticket, no win! But maybe you will buy a lottery ticket in the future. So you can think about winning in the future, like a dream. It's not very real, but it's still possible.
