Poziomy europejskie

European levels:

The levels of language command are classified by the Common European Framework which is an internationally recognised classification of exams and levels accepted by the Council of Europe. The system thoroughly defines the range of language skills which must be mastered by the learners of a language to be able to communicate in it, and to ensure that the communication is set properly in any given sociolinguistic context.

The levels classified by the system:

C2 Mastery
C1 EOP - Effective Operational Proficiency
B2 Vantage
B1 Threshold
A2 Waystage
A1 Breakthrough

Healthy drinks

Scientists say that it is good for us to drink some alcohol everyday. Of course, it's not good to drink a lot but one or two glasses of wine or another alcohol every day. We also know that it is better to drink some alcohol than no alcohol at all. But this isn't news. 

Scientists now say that tea is another drink that is good for us. It is good for our heart. It also helps protect us against cancer. But they don't say how many cups of tea. So for the moment, drink tea and not coffee. Perhaps scientists will soon tell us that coffee is good for us, too. And maybe even chocolate and tomato ketchup!
