Method - Commenting on 2 documents : faire un brouillon pour l'oral
Le jour de l'oral du bac vous n'aurez que 20 m pour préparer votre analyse de deux documents. Et la lecture des documents va déjà vous prendre un temps précieux. De plus, si les examinateurs vous voient lire votre brouillon, ils vont vous le prendre ou vous pénaliser puisque la lecture ne fait pas partie des compétences à évaluer.
Sur votre brouillon, ne doivent donc figurer que les éléments essentiels et/ou ceux que vous avez peur d'oublier.

Analysis
DESCRIBE THE DOCS What I see (=DOCS) |

FIRSTLY, Doc.1 mocks THE PRESIDENTIAL NOMINATION | |
In the cartoon, we can see : Scene, background : describe "live" Characters : elephants & donkeys. - appearance : describe "live" - expression : / - action : describe "live" |
=> Indeed, we know that |
SECONDLY, Doc.2 gives the results of THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION | |
In the article, it is said : P1 (main idea) A historic victory -Rephrase "live" & describe the photo |
=> We can say that... Notion 2 : the election. Define orally "2. US. Holding the election" Notion 3 : the inauguration. Define orally with "2. US. Winning the election" + What you know about the abolition of slavery and/or the civil rights struggle |
P2 (main idea) A decisive victory -Rephrase "live" Indeed the results show : give the winner, justify & qualify "live" |
=> In fact, it can be explained by ... Notion 4 : the US indirect election. Define orally with "3. Winning the election" |
