----- Original Message ----- From: Amanda Caplan - amandacaplan@xxxxxxxxx Subject: Today's "Lashon" Bagrut Food for thought.... Today's 'lashon' bagrut (module A) main (50 points!) reading comprehension exercise was about the English language and how it's becoming more and more dominant. It was based on an article from Haaretz, which was based on an article in the Economist. In fact, I think it was posted on ETNI a while back. The national test for Hebrew language uses an article about English and translated from English as its main reading compehension exercise?? Now that's an interesting thought.
