Worlds apart
1. Most poor Victorian children never went to school. As soon as they were old enough to earn money for their
families, they were forced to work. Only upper and middle class children went to school.
2. So, in early Victorian England, lower class children, who had to earn money, were not able to read or write.
3. Children from rich families didn’t have to go to school. Instead they were taught at home by a governess until
they were 10 years old. Once a boy turned ten, he was sent to Public Schools like Eton or Harrow. There were
very few schools available for girls, however, until near the end of the Victorian era. Rich girls were mostly
educated at home.
4. Rich kids had an easy life. They ate good, healthy food and had servants to look after them. They could play as
long as they wanted with beautiful, expensive toys. They were allowed to have pets, even big ones like ponies for
example.
5. Lower class kids, on the other hand, could only dream of such a nice life. They had no toys. And if they had
had any, they would have been too tired to play with them after a day spent working at the factory, or sweeping
chimneys.
6. However, in the late 19th century, British society started to change. The Victorians soon realized that it was
important for people, including the lower class, to be able to read and write, and education became more
important. The church of England became active in this field and built ‘National schools’ which taught children
the ‘three Rs’: reading, writing, arithmetic. Religion was taught too.
7. In the 1880s, school became mandatory. All children had to attend school until they were 10 years old. In 1889,
new laws made it clear that all children under 12 had to go to school, and in 1891, schools became free.
Exercice 10
To summarize the text quickly, note for each social class 3 expressions that highlight the inequalities between
the lower classes and the upper classes.

inégalités entre les classes inférieures et les classes supérieures.)

Victorian Inventions
When you switch on the light in your home, or the next time your parents drive you somewhere, or if you’re
buying the latest digital camera or mobile phone, think about this: much of the modern environment you live
in was invented during the 19th century.
If you are not convinced, let’s pretend time travel has just been invented: how about taking a trip back in
time, to see what the streets of London–not the East End, of course–looked like in… 1886?
The Victorian age was a time of change and progress, making life easier for many people–at least for those
with money.
During Queen Victoria’s reign, travelling, which had so far been a luxury, became a popular habit–easy and
affordable. Thanks to the steam trains, British people could leave the city and spend a pleasant afternoon in
the countryside.
The fast-growing railway system changed the vision British people had of their country. It became possible to
go from one city to another and visit friends and relatives living 50 or 100 miles away in just a few hours.
Let’s take a walk, now…
On a sunny day, you might see a photographer in a garden or a public park, taking pictures of a family on
some special occasion–a wedding, maybe. They’re all dressed in their best clothes, and they must stand still in
front of the big wooden camera for a long, long time, otherwise the picture will be blurred!
Don’t forget to look left as you cross the street. Why? Because you don’t want to be knocked down by some
crazy fellow riding his gigantic bicycle with one large wheel in front and a ridiculously small one at the back,
or–even worse–by one of those insane rich men on their noisy machines called “automobiles”. Those lunatics
often forget that they have to be announced by a man walking in front of their cars and holding a red flag to
warn pedestrians of the danger!
You might want to phone your relatives–your ancestors in fact–to inform them of your arrival. Yes, the
telephone has been invented, but you won’t find one easily, unless you meet one of the few rich eccentrics who
have one. Perhaps you’d better send a telegram.
Do you have rich ancestors? If so, you might be surprised to see that they live in a comfortable modern home,
and that their house is lit, not by traditional gas or candle light, but by one of the latest inventions– an electric
light bulb!
You see, living in Victorian London could be pleasant indeed, as long as you had enough money to enjoy it.
Why would you want to go back to the present time, then?
You’ve already guessed the answer. In Victorian England, there was no TV, no computers, no video games!
Exercice 27
Katie knows she will be interviewed by her teacher about what she has learned from the article. Help her
prepare her oral presentation from the data in the table you have just completed. When you’re done, say it out
loud.
(Katie sait qu’elle sera interrogée par son professeur sur ce qu’elle a retenu de l’article. Aide-la à préparer son
intervention orale à partir des données du tableau que tu viens de compléter. Quand tu as fini, dis-le à voix haute.)
Tu peux utiliser les mots suivants si tu veux. Si tu hésites sur certaines
constructions, aide-toi du texte.

b) Read this paragraph again. Which two inventions does the word ‘‘danger’’ refer to?
(Relis ce paragraphe. À quelles deux inventions se réfère le mot « danger » ?)
Don’t forget to look left as you cross the street. Why? Because you don’t want to be knocked down by some
crazy fellow riding his gigantic bicycle with one large wheel in front and a ridiculously small one at the back,
or–even worse–by one of those insane rich men on their noisy machines called “automobiles”. Those lunatics

Le past perfect se construit avec had + participe passé.
Quand nous parlons d’un événement situé dans le passé, on utilise le past perfect pour se projeter dans un
passé antérieur à celui dont nous parlons. En d’autres termes, on l’utilise pour parler d’un événement situé
avant un événement passé qui fait référence.
Sur l’échelle du temps, si l’on considère que le moment présent, c’est-à-dire le moment où l’on parle, est
T=0
Le passé dont nous parlons est T – 1 et son passé antérieur (= Past Perfect) est T – 2.

Exercice 38
JE RETIENS
L’obligation au passé
Pour exprimer l’obligation au passé, on utilise HAD TO + base verbale à toutes les personnes :
She had to tell the truth.
L’absence d’obligation au passé s’exprime en ajoutant l’auxiliaire DID à la forme négative :
She didn’t have to tell the truth.
Alternativement, on peut utiliser les expressions :
be forced to / be made to / be compelled to / be obliged to
Ces expressions présentent des nuances. Be forced to et be made to indiquent que l’obligation que l’on reçoit
est extérieure et indépendante de notre volonté : on n’a pas le choix.
He was disgusted but he was forced to eat the full plate.
She was made to clean her room.
Be compelled to et be obliged to peuvent être plus nuancés, notamment lorsqu’on les utilise avec le verbe
FEEL : feel compelled to / feel obliged to
Dans ce cas, l’obligation peut venir de soi-même :
I felt obliged to do it because I knew no one else could do it.
I didn’t have to, but I felt compelled to tell her the truth.

In this lesson, you will continue to play the role of a detective. Indeed a new murder has been
committed. The press commented on this horrific crime and revealed the existence of a letter
that the murderer has sent to the police. Read the article and do the following exercises.

1- Another atrociously mutilated body was found this morning in the Whitechapel area. The victim was, just like
the other four, one of the poorest women in the East End, leaving the police unable to understand why the
murderer attacked her with such brutality.
2- As was already the case with the less recent murders, the police have not been able to collect precise
information from witnesses. The murderer has been described as a tall, elegant man in a black suit and a top
hat. This description remains too vague to be really useful.
3- Therefore, the police are still unable to find the murderer, and no significant step has been taken towards
solving the case.
4- To add to the police’s growing embarrassment, another extremely disturbing event took place this morning.
Police headquarters received a letter from Jack the Ripper himself! Although it is impossible to make sure that
the letter is authentic, its very existence suggests that the five murders were committed by the same individual.
5- The message was not supposed to be made public, but thanks to undisclosed sources, we are able to reveal it
to our readers. Here is an extract of the original message, written with red ink and addressed to the Chief of
Police:
Dear Boss,
I keep on hearing that the police is about to catch me but they won’t fix me yet.
You keep talking about being on the right track… What a joke!
[…]
I love my work and will do it again. You will soon hear of me.
[…]
My knife is nice and sharp and I’ll be back to work very soon.
Good luck!
Yours truly,
Jack the Ripper.
6- It is self-evident that more policemen should be sent to patrol the streets of the East End. Our citizens are
demanding immediate government action to arrest the killer. They want more policemen and they want them
better equipped. The current situation is intolerable.
