The document discusses task-based language teaching (TBLT) and the use of authentic materials and tasks in language instruction. It describes TBLT as an approach that engages learners in performing meaningful tasks using the target language. Key aspects of TBLT include designing communicative tasks linked to curriculum goals and focusing on both language acquisition and proceduralization. Authentic materials can contextualize learning and include cultural objects, videos, simulations of real-world scenarios. Effective tasks reflect real-life situations and prioritize meaning over form.

There are approximately 6,000-7,000 languages spoken in the world today, with 3,000 estimated to become extinct. Mandarin Chinese is the most widely spoken with over 1 billion speakers. The major language families include Indo-European, Afro-Asiatic, Austronesian, and Sino-Tibetan. Writing systems developed independently in various cultures and include alphabets, abjads, syllabaries, and logographic scripts. The advent of writing coincided with the rise of agriculture and the need to record property and transactions. Linguistic diversity is threatened by a growing rate of language endangerment and extinction, with cultural and historical knowledge lost when languages disappear.

4. Benieuwd glijdt
Harrys blik naar
haar buik, en dan
begint ook hij te
stralen:
Hallo, kleintje! Je
bent wel echt een
verrassing, maar
zeker niet
ongewenst!
10. En even later
zitten ze allebei
aan tafel met een
heerlijk ijsje.
Ze geniet met
volle teugen,
eindelijk eens een
man die 辿cht voor
haar zorgt!
11. Al heeft het ook
wel zijn nadelen.
Want als Melissa
door het vreemde
bioritme dan haar
zwangerschap met
zich meebrengt
in het midden van
de nacht aan haar
Lichaamsskills wil
werken
12. staat Harry na
enkele minuten al
buiten!
Lisje, zou je niet
gaan slapen? s
Nachts trainen is
echt niet gezond!
13. Als ze zelf moet
toegeven, heeft
Harry eigenlijk wel
gelijk. Maar ja, een
zwangerschap
brengt nu eenmaal
vreemde
gedragingen met
zich mee!
14. Wanneer ze weer
wakker wordt,
staat Harry naast
haar bed:
Liefje, ik moet
gaan werken. Zorg
een beetje voor je
jezelf, h辿!
15. en voor onze
kleine,
natuurlijk!,
voegt hij eraan
toe, terwijl hij zich
naar Melissas buik
toe buigt.
17. Maar Harry had
het toch niet
kunnen laten om
nog een
pannenkoek voor
Melissa klaar te
zetten.
Glimlachend om
zijn bezorgdheid
eet ze hem op.
Harry weet
tenminste hoe hij
een vrouw moet
verwennen!
18. En ze luistert goed
naar haar vriend,
want de rest van
de dag brengt ze
braafjes aan de
piano door.
19. Klinkt goed!,
hoort ze opeens
Harrys stem
achter zich,
Muziek zou goed
zijn voor
ongeboren babys,
wist je dat?
24. O, jij pestkop!,
roept Melissa uit,
terwijl ze gretig
haar tanden in
een stuk pizza zet.
25. Na nog een
gezellige avond
kruipen de
toekomstige
ouders samen in
bed. Misschien
wordt het kindje
vannacht wel
geboren
26. Maar de volgende
ochtend is Melissa
nog steeds niet
bevallen. Al heeft
ze wel last van
steken in haar
buik.
27. Harry blijft bij
haar op bed
liggen, want hij
wil absoluut zijn
eerste kindje zien
geboren worden.
Samen praten ze
over babynamen,
en er wordt beslist
dat Harry de
naam van het
kindje maag
kiezen.
29. Godverdomme, ik
heb dit al zo vaak
gedaan, waarom
blijft het nu zon
pijn doen?,
roept ze uit.
30. Maar dan houdt
ze toch een klein
babytje in haar
armen.
Hallo kleine meid.
Wat ben jij mooi,
zeg! Je vaders
huidskleur, maar
mijn ogen. En het
blonde haar heb je
van ons allebei.
31. Ze loopt naar de
andere kant van
de slaapkamer, en
legt het kleintje in
Harrys armen.
Zo, zeg jij maar
eens hoe onze
schattige dochter
mag heten!
32. Ok辿, dan is dit
onze kleine Ella!,
zegt Harry trots,
terwijl hij zijn
dochtertje heen en
weer wiegt.
34. En jawel: het zijn
weer eens een
meisje en een
jongen!,
zegt ze trots,
wanneer ze ook
haar zoontje in
haar armen houdt.
35. Dan is dit onze
Marco, goed?,
vraagt ze.
Natuurlijk liefje.
Al wat jij bedenkt
is in orde!,
antwoordt Harry.
36. Zo staan ze met
hun vieren even te
genieten. Eindelijk
een mooi, hecht
gezinnetje!
37. *Zucht* Het ziet er inderdaad
naar uit dat Harry d辿 perfecte man
voor Melissa is. Jammer genoeg is
dit nog steeds een QB, en is Harry
nog maar de derde man
*Zucht*
TOT DE VOLGENDE KEER!!!
