My comment on 24 Hours !

24 Hours is a very interesting TV show very interesting to watch. I found the series was based on things that can really happen in real life. And the best feature of it, it’s realized in real time: a one hour show represent one hour of our time. It’s like a reality show like Loft Story or Occupation Double. We see all the details of the action. We can put ourselves more easily in the skin of the actor because we can feel more emotion when we watch it. I recommend it very strongly. It’s easy to understand. The vocabulary is simple and the sentences are short and sweet. But we need to watch every episode to really understand the next one. I learned a lot from it. The reason is because I used the English subtitles for the first time. I could really associate words to pictures and understand it much better.

One hour in the life of Jack Bauer

My name is Jack Bauer. Today is the longest day of my life. My wife and my daughter have been kidnapped by a group of terrorists, the same who want to kill the President. They are using me to get their goal. They put my finger prints on the shooter’s gun and when they missed killing the president the first time, the Agency found the gun and all the policemen are running after me now. My wife found a cellular phone and tried to contact me at the agency. Somebody who knew me enough to trust me, Nina from the agency, contacted me. She tried to retrace the call but at the same time, the terrorist discovered my wife who was calling and cut the line just in time before the agency retraced it.
