A2, B1, English Story Easter This coming weekend will be Easter weekend in the UK.

The date of Easter changes every year.

It is celebrated on the first Sunday after the full moon on or after March 21st. This year,

Easter Sunday falls on Sunday, April 17th.

Most people celebrate Easter by enjoying the long weekend with their friends and family.

Most companies around the UK close for Good Friday and Easter Monday.

Many people exchange chocolate eggs on Easter Sunday and some families make Easter egg hunts for their children.

They hide Easter eggs around their house and garden for their children to find.

For religious people, Easter is one of the most important times of the year.

The week up to Easter is called Holy Week.

It starts with Palm Sunday, which is the Sunday before Easter Sunday.

Palm Sunday is when Jesus arrived in Jerusalem riding on a donkey.

Lots of people came to see him and they put palm branches on the road.

Nowadays, churches give out small crosses made from palm leaves to remember this day.

You might see that some people keep these small crosses in their homes.

The next important day is Maundy Thursday.

This is the Thursday before Easter Sunday.

On this day, Christians remember when Jesus ate the Passover meal with his disciples.

This is called the Last Supper.

Christians eat bread and drink red wine at Holy Communion or Mass.

Good Friday is the Friday before Easter Sunday.

This was the day that Jesus was crucified.

On this day, Christians remember Jesus and that he died on the cross.

Easter Sunday is the day of Jesus' resurrection.

After Jesus was crucified, his body was taken to a tomb.

Roman soldiers put a big stone over the entrance of the tomb.

On the Sunday, Mary Magdalene and some of the disciples went to visit the tomb.

The big stone in front of the tomb had been moved and Jesus' body was not inside.

For the next 40 days, people kept seeing Jesus.

It is said that he rose from the dead.

That is why Christians call it the resurrection.

Around Easter, aside from eating lots of chocolate Easter eggs,

people also eat hot crossed buns.

These are normally eaten on Good Friday to remember Jesus on the cross. Do you celebrate Easter?

शैडोइंग तकनीक क्या है?

शैडोइंग (Shadowing) एक विज्ञान-समर्थित भाषा सीखने की तकनीक है जो मूल रूप से पेशेवर दुभाषिया प्रशिक्षण के लिए विकसित की गई थी। विधि सरल लेकिन शक्तिशाली है: आप मूल अंग्रेज़ी ऑडियो सुनते हैं और तुरंत इसे ज़ोर से दोहराते हैं — जैसे वक्ता की छाया 1-2 सेकंड की देरी से। शोध से पता चलता है कि यह उच्चारण सटीकता, स्वर, लय, जुड़ी हुई ध्वनियाँ, सुनने की समझ और बोलने की प्रवाहशीलता में काफ़ी सुधार करता है।
