Summary: The majority of the studies dealing with the autistic children language show that they do not use the pronoun I. At the narrative level, the autistic child exhibits severe language deficits, because the narration of an event, situation, and fiction, despite the use of a special kind of language limited to only a few words, is almost non-existent. Communication does not refer to words, but also to their purpose. In research authors that the autistic child does not avoid only the use of the first person pronoun and its functions, but also the general pattern of building utterances, that is an avoidance to ask directly, in any case, to ask other persons. 

Thesis Statement: Providing several therapeutic approaches that are not exclusively imperative for the autistic preschool and school children.

TITLE:   Development of voice onset time in monolingual and bilingual French-speaking children DATE OF READING: 31 JANUARY 2021 Authors:  Margaret Kehoe, Kopika Kannathasan Published:  January 2021 Name of the Academic Journal:  ScienceDirect, "Lingua" Volume 252, 102937 Source:  https://doi.org/10.1016/j.lingua.2020.102937 Summary:  The key point of the journal is the research that examined Voice Onset Time (VOT) in monolingual and bilingual French-speaking children, aged 3 to 6 years, and in monolingual adults.

Results indicated that both adults and children produced VOTs in the intermediate range. In addition, Bilingualism had a minor effect on VOT acquisition.

1 /THE TALMUDIC TRADITION IN CONTEMPORARY BRITISH-JEWISH FICTION: SILENCE VERSUS TALKING

Title: THE TALMUDIC TRADITION IN CONTEMPORARY BRITISH-JEWISH FICTION: SILENCE VERSUS TALKING  Date of reading:  18 OCTOBER 2020 Author: Anita Chmielewska Published: 6th August 2018 Title of the Academic Journal: Crossroads Number:  DOI: 10.15290 / CR.2018.23.4.02 Summary: The main problem contained in the article is to show that the contemporary British-Jewish literature is turning away from silence which is understood as a means of preventing problems in the civilisation. The Holy Text of Judaism, Talmud, is the decisive factor in preventing the misunderstanding of the other side caused by the silence. Thanks to the long-established tradition Havruta - that involves understanding and solving problems through dialogue between people - such an approach is visible in British-Jewish literature. We can notice these in the mentioned titles such as "The Marrying of Chani Kaufman" by Eve Harris and "The Innocents" by Francesca Segal. Both of them open with a scene in a sy
