Bonjour. J'ai plusieurs sujet type bac en anglais à faire ou à travailler la correction. Celui-ci je ne le comprends pas, je n'y arrive pas, j'ai cherché la correction sur internet, mais je ne la trouve pas.

Ok, voici le texte :

When the signal flashed on the wall, Althea had just finished dressing. She watched it for a moment. It was their code, all right. Three lights in a row, the flickering pause, and then the slow, deliberate hold. She pressed the button that buzzed downstairs.
'Who is it?' she said, her mouth against the intercom.
'It's all right,' said a woman's voice, clear and high and a bit too shrill.
'I've already shown my identification to your doorman. I'm Sally Milford
-Carry Milford's wife. My husband works in your husband's office.'
'What do you want?' said Althea cautiously. 'I'm much too busy to see anyone this morning. Besides, I'm on my way out.' She bit her lip. George would be right if he scolded her for being careless. Why had she told this woman she was going out ?
' I'll only take a moment of your time. It's important.'
'Can't you tell me what it is over the intercom ?'
'If I wanted to talk this way, I could have called you on the phone. I must see you. Please.'
'All right,' said Althea, reluctantly, knowing she was being foolish, 'you can come up.'
She checked her own gun even though she knew it was loaded and she palmed the small dagger - the one her mother had given her as a wedding present- the one with the jeweled handle.
'Things are so different now,' her mother had said, sighing. She had lifted the dagger from the tissue paper andhad studied it for a moment before she handed it to Althea. 'In my day we could walk the streets without this sort of thing.'
' That's not true,' Althea reminded her. 'You told me you used to wear stilt-like heels and you always carried a whistle in your purse.'
'But that's not the same. It still wasn't like this,' said her mother. 'Did you know we weren't allowed to carry weapons?'
'You weren't N' said Althea, startled.
'That was before everyone realized that our laws were lagging behind our customs and public opinion. That was before the Citizen's Defence Act was passed.'
'There is only one crime,' Althea said firmly, 'and that is to be a victim. Nothing makes sense otherwise.'
'I suppose not.' Her mother shook her head. 'I guess I'm just being sentimental,' she added wistfully. 'Sometimes I miss the policemen we used to have. They would wear blue uniforms and they would drive around with sirens blaring and lights flashing. It seems a shame they became obsolete. Why I can even remember the time when we could take a walk in the park.'
'In the park?' said Althea, incredulous. 'You could actually do that?'
Now Althea bit her lip. There was no point in daydreaming. She stationed herself at the oneway peephole. The woman who now came within her range of vision was thin of face and well-dressed. She blinked her eyes nervously and hesitated before she knocked.
'Just a moment,' said Althea. She unfastened the chain and the two locks, and the, stepped back so that when the door opened she would be behind it. 'Come in,' she said.
'Where are you?'
'Right behind you,' said Althea, her hand on her gun. 'You're not very smart to walk right in like that, are you?'
'But I know who you are,' said Sally Milford, her eyes wide with fright.
'My husband and your husband are good friends.'
'The first thing you have to learn,' said Althea, 'is not to trust anyone.'
She kicked the door shut. 'Hold up your hands.' She found a small acid gun in Sally's purse and a knife in the pocket of her jacket. 'Just put them on the table,' Althea directed, 'and then sit down. Would you like some coffee?'

As-tu commencé à traiter la partie linguistique?
C'est généralement toujours le même type de questions, il faut savoir maitriser ces règles de grammaire.
Essayes de faire ce que tu peux, propose tes réponses, je te corrigerai. Je te guiderai pour le reste si nécessaire.

partie linguistique:
I/ tu dois compléter la 2ème phrase de telle sorte qu'elle ait le même sens que la 1ère
1)Sally and Althea exchanged glances.
Sally and Althea looked at ...............(each other)
=> Sally et Althea échangeaient des regards
Sally et Althea se regardaient l'une l'autre.

ce sont généralement des mots de comparaisons, des liens logiques, des mots d'exclamation...

II/ les 6 phrases ont un modal (must, can, may..). Chaque modal a un sens, à toi d'associer un des sens proposé à chaque phrase
1)'I must see you.' : ........(feeling of obligation)

III/ remplis le texte avec les bonnes prépositions:
to, about, for, of, from,....

IV/ tu dois compléter b avec des éléments de comparaison pour que b ait le même sens que a
