Reflection:

In the race for manliest world leader, Vladimir Putin has been leaving all others in the dust for years. Already famous for his iron-pumping, horse-riding, tiger-hunting ways and his affinity for being photographed sans shirt with buff pectorals prominently glistening, the Russian president proved at a world summit Monday night that his irrepressible masculinity also has a suave side.

In the individual task I tried to read short part of the article about Vladimir Putin’s politeness. There was a lot of new words to me and also some difficult words. I didn’t even know how to pronounce Vladimir Putin’s name. I had to search irrepressible and masculinity. Those were the hardest words. I was surprised by the word suave. I tought that it would be pronounced as the word suede. I also was curious about the word sans. The other hard words were pectorals and glistening.
