Gwyneth Fox, very skilfull lecturer, addressed the audience with great enthusiasm. (Сразу вспомнилась Савина, рассказывающая про разницу презентации русских и иносранцев, короче чувствуется).

About metophor:

Mrs. Fox asked her 3 daughters what  the word "torrent" meant. The youngest, 4-year old said:

-I know what it is!!

- So, what is "torrent", love?

- It's like you, mum, when you are very angry

I wonder why our russian teachers cannot or do not want  explain things clearly, i don't even speak about interest.
