This week we've been working with this poster made by Scarboro Missions in Canada. It is about the Golden Rule and you've been a little surprised to find out that most religions in the world preach the same: empathy ("The ability to understand and share the feelings of another." - Oxford Dictionary).

Esta semana hemos estado trabajando con este poster de las Missiones Scarboro en Canadá. Trata de La regla de oro y os ha sorprendido un poco descubrir que la mayoría de las religiones del mundo predican lo mismo: la empatía  ("Identificación mental y afectiva de un sujeto con el estado de ánimo de otro." RAE).

If you want the Spanish translation, "La Regla de Oro En las Religiones del Mundo" at the Canadian Scarboro Missions site.

Si queréis la traducción al español, está hecha en el sitio de las Misiones de Scarboro.

And as you have to practice your listening, here is a video on the same topic.

Y puesto que tenéis que practicar, aquí está este vídeo sobre el mismo tema.


Have a nice weekend.
Feliz fin de semana.
