3) Record yourself reading the following paragraph.
"If someone has a skeleton in the closet, it means that they have a dark or an embarrassing secret about their past that they would prefer to remain secret. The expression has in origins in the medical profession. Doctors in Britain were not allowed to work on dead bodies until 1832. Prior to this date, the only bodies they could dissect for medical purposes were those of executed criminals. It was a common practice for doctors who were rich to dissect the corpse of an executed criminal and keep the skeleton for research purposes. Public opinion would not allow the doctors to keep skeletons on open view in their surgeries, so they had to hide them. Most people suspected that doctors kept skeletons in the closet even if they couldn’t actually see them." onestopenglish]]> 2018-01-17 08:40:49 UTC https://padlet.com/habiba_elrashidy22/VVideos/wish/221979844 Contracted sounds 4/4 habiba_elrashidy22 https://padlet.com/habiba_elrashidy22/VVideos/wish/224145108 http://www.bbc.co.uk/learningenglish/english/features/pronunciation/tims-pronunciation-workshop-ep-24]]> 2018-01-24 10:19:37 UTC https://padlet.com/habiba_elrashidy22/VVideos/wish/224145108 Contracted sounds 2/4 habiba_elrashidy22 https://padlet.com/habiba_elrashidy22/VVideos/wish/224145712 http://www.bbc.co.uk/learningenglish/english/features/pronunciation/tims-pronunciation-workshop-ep-26]]> 2018-01-24 10:21:35 UTC https://padlet.com/habiba_elrashidy22/VVideos/wish/224145712 Contracted sounds 3/4 habiba_elrashidy22 https://padlet.com/habiba_elrashidy22/VVideos/wish/224145920 http://www.bbc.co.uk/learningenglish/english/features/pronunciation/tims-pronunciation-workshop-ep-18]]> 2018-01-24 10:22:12 UTC https://padlet.com/habiba_elrashidy22/VVideos/wish/224145920 Contracted sounds 1/4 habiba_elrashidy22 https://padlet.com/habiba_elrashidy22/VVideos/wish/224146099 http://www.bbc.co.uk/learningenglish/english/features/pronunciation/tims-pronunciation-workshop-ep-6]]> 2018-01-24 10:22:46 UTC https://padlet.com/habiba_elrashidy22/VVideos/wish/224146099 habiba_elrashidy22 https://padlet.com/habiba_elrashidy22/VVideos/wish/224150657 https://pronunciationstudio.com/contractions/]]> 2018-01-24 10:37:53 UTC https://padlet.com/habiba_elrashidy22/VVideos/wish/224150657 habiba_elrashidy22 https://padlet.com/habiba_elrashidy22/VVideos/wish/225296010 http://www.bbc.co.uk/learningenglish/english/features/pronunciation/tims-pronunciation-workshop-ep-30]]> 2018-01-27 14:45:09 UTC https://padlet.com/habiba_elrashidy22/VVideos/wish/225296010
