world war one
that sounds really interesting

feelings and emotions
basic vocabulary about emotions and
feelings
the expression you wear on your face is
far more important than the clothes you
wear on your back
how do you feel today
what influences your emotions
the weather
your friends your family
strangers or yourself
situation one today is a bad day
[Music]
hi ariel what’s going on you always call
before coming i’m surprised
today is a bad day and i need you right
now qrixy
oh come in
[Music]
tell me what happened
this morning the weather’s so good i
felt great
but everything got worse because of its
appearance
what happened
a banana
it is a sad story isn’t it
yes i felt terrible
let’s react something about my sad story
okay
even though you haven’t said anything
yet what did the banana do
today i got up very early i decided to
walk to the company
i wore my favorite shirt i felt
confident
but i tripped by a banana
[Music]
what a stupid banana
then i fell into a puddle
my white shirt has completely turned
brown i felt so ashamed everyone was
looking at me
it’s so embarrassing then what did you
do
i went back home to change clothes so
i’m late for work
oh my dear is it okay
no when i go to work early why do i
never see my boss but today i arrived
late he and i face to face
[Music]
do you often come to work late
no sir i mean that i am never late
seven minutes later i want to see report
on my desk
yes sir
[Music]
what are you doing
it is last month’s report how did you
make a mistake like this
oh sorry sir i got the wrong report
not only you arrived late but your mind
was also not focused on work
i’m sorry
ten minutes later i want to see your
this month’s report and the reason why
you’re late this morning
[Music]
trixie guess what happened
i don’t know
i said because of the banana so i was
late he got angry again
i’m speechless i was so annoyed
today whatever i touch they are broken
how do you feel now
i’m suspicious of myself and sad
you can’t control what happened or will
happen to you but you can control your
emotions
let’s get back to your mood
don’t doubt yourself
you are my beautiful and talented friend
thank you i feel better
let’s eat something
[Music]
situation 2 my boyfriend doesn’t care
about me anymore
[Music]
you look unhappy today
what happened
i’m very disappointed
don’t tell me you’re arguing with your
boyfriend again
yes we argued but what happens he always
calls me first
but now he didn’t call anymore even i
called him he didn’t pick up
don’t worry too much maybe he’s busy
he ignores me we rarely text these days
why are you arguing
when i’m excited he’s bored when i’m
angry
he doesn’t care i’m silent he doesn’t
care
when i want to go out with him he always
says he’s busy when i left he didn’t
stop me
i am confused now
[Music]
thinking so much will make you more
upset
does he still love me
go and ask him how do i know
no way i won’t call him first again
i don’t care about him anymore
maybe he doesn’t ignore you he can’t
hear you
because he’s so focused on thinking
that’s how men’s brains work
what does he think
and you you just said you don’t care
about him anymore
i think you should keep yourself busy
read books listen to music watch movies
work cook take care of your skin
everything
what if he still doesn’t call back
after he comes out of his mind box he
will call you
really
yes he will call to let you know that
makeup or breakup
hey you make me nervous
i’m just joking but don’t let one guy
bother you too much if he likes you he
will say it and show it
because he’s a man
if not don’t expect it just waste your
time and skip many guys who like you
you’re right and if you’re just like
this
i feel
you’ve lost yourself no longer a happy
and smiling girl as before
you’re right
thank you my friend
true love makes us wonderful
happier every day without worry or
sadness i don’t need a heartless
boyfriend
so how do you feel now
now i feel confident positive and great
thank you so much
i’m glad to hear that
[Music]
situation three
my best friend confessed to me
[Music]
what’s wrong my sister your face looks
like a monkey
i’m not a monkey i’m still in shock
what happened to you
i said that i went out with andrew
remember
oh yeah i remember
so
we were walking
suddenly he stopped and said he liked me
i was speechless for about five minutes
i’m so surprised you and andrew are best
friends right
i know i’m so confused
how did you answer him
then i said you called me and i ran
straight home right away
oh my girl
come here let me tell you about my
memory
what’s the memory
i used to have a best friend we were
very close
on his birthday he said he liked me in
front of a lot of friends
oh my goodness how many people were
there
all the members of our class were there
wow
so how did you feel
first i was surprised then i’m confused
and embarrassed
what did you answer him
i said we should be friends
what happened next
he was bewildered
then ashamed and sad
that’s what i felt then he said it was
just a joke
but after that we weren’t as close as we
used to be
he avoided me
how about you
i don’t want to lose him
but i don’t know if i like him or not
we’re just friends
what should i do next
ask yourself
ask your heart
don’t ask me
[Music]
situation four
it’s not what i expected
[Music]
what’s up my son
you look so sad
i feel depressed dad what’s up
can you tell me
i’m so disappointed in myself
don’t doubt yourself
i was assigned to the company’s project
i remember that you said if you complete
well you will prove your creativity to
everyone and maybe you get promoted
but i failed the project did not bring
profit as i expected
the project doesn’t make a loss right
yes dad
you’re still lucky many people fail
completely and go out of their own money
people tell me not to be sad but i’m not
satisfied with myself
so do you know where the problem is
i haven’t reviewed the report yet
and you have time to sit here sad
i have worked hard i’ve been
enthusiastic all month but
find the problem help you do better next
time
negative emotions don’t help it makes
you feel unconfident doubt yourself then
you have missed the opportunity to learn
more
you’re right dad
don’t look back on the past and feel
regret let’s learn from the past
thank you so much
dad you’re the best i feel better now
working hard is good but you also need
to relax and keep your emotions positive
then your creativity and your mind will
go further
[Music]

[Music]
bargaining how do you ask for a lower
price
where there is demand there is supply
where there is the seller there is the
buyer
sellers usually want to sell at a high
price
and buyers always want to buy at a low
price
let’s see how the characters bargain
with each other
situation 1 how much is this wallet
uh
[Music]
[Music]
good afternoon miss how can i help you
my wallet is too old i want to buy a new
wallet i see your store has a variety of
wallets
yes
may i recommend you some new models
of course please show me
we have some new models that just
arrived yesterday there is a pink wallet
and the brown wallet
okay let me see
they are gentle simple but elegant and
suitable for women
the pink one looks so pretty and the
brown one is so elegant
i think the pink wallet suits me better
you have good taste
recently the pink model is selling well
how much is the pink wallet
yes it’s 25
your price is too high
because this is a new arrival and the
quality is good
what is the price of the brown
the price is twenty dollars
can you make it lower
it is the best price we can not lower
the price the leather is very smooth and
durable
i can buy a wallet like this at other
stores for a lower price
i’m not sure about that our store is the
cheapest in this area already
well i’ve bought a wallet before for
fifteen dollars thanks anyway
how much is the best price for you
i’m looking to spend no more than
eighteen dollars on a wallet
[Music]
so
i can give a brown wallet to you for
eighteen dollars and a pink wallet for
twenty four dollars it is my best offer
i think
i should look around then make a
decision
[Music]
just a second waste your time if you go
around
yep
i can’t lower my price anymore but if
you buy both wallets the price for
wallets is forty dollars
let me think for a moment
we don’t think we can go that low all
right i’ll take them one is for me and
one is for my mom
you have good taste your total bill is
forty dollars
here you are
forty dollars thank you
thanks and see you again the wallet is
perfect for you
bye bye
[Music]
i have sold two wallets that make me as
happy as i just sold a house
she is a good bargainer
you’re a good bargainer too
situation two
it’s too expensive can you make it lower
[Music]
how can i help you
i’m looking for a lamp to help with my
photography
i’m a photographer do you have any lamps
like that
of course we have
follow me upstairs please
[Music]
look at this lamp it’s so interesting
it is a popular model in recent times
young people love this model lamp
what lamp is it
it is a sunset projection lamp for the
home bedroom background wall
why is there only one lamp on the shelf
it has sky blue rainbow color sunset
color etc
now this is the final sample of sunset
color
that sounds great how much is it
it’s thirty
thirty dollars
um
what if you give me half fifteen dollars
fifteen dollars i don’t think so this
lamp is selling very well
but it looks so old it is still dusty
today my staff is off i replace i
haven’t cleaned it yet
you see if it’s so hot i think it would
sell out
i imported this lamp for one month and
everyone came here saw it and bought it
right away
they bought it online too it is the
final sample
but i haven’t seen another color lamp
yet i’m not sure i like this sunset
color the best i don’t have much choice
the warm light like the sun from this
lamp is no joke it makes your wall look
so beautiful
if you sell it for half price i will buy
it
the lamp is high quality
and the price is reasonable it’s durable
and has 180 flips at your wish
i cannot pay any higher price
let me show you the battery of this lamp
can be changed in many ways
charger power bank usb socket pc or
laptop
i know
would you accept twenty dollars
i’m so sorry but
you’re a photographer and you have good
taste i take you for twenty five dollars
it is my final price
all right i’ll take it thank you
good choice and the lamp is yours
[Music]

anna it’s good
i’m over the moon because i’ve just
finished an important project yesterday
wow amazing
you look so happy
yes anna the past three months have been
exhausting to be honest
this project is very important so i
tried my best
it ended so i feel like a burden was
lifted off my shoulders
that sounds great
it’s time for you to spend time for
yourself
just relax and recharge your battery
yes of course
what a pity when the pandemic is still
in an outbreak
i want to travel abroad and let my hair
down
oh i know anyway
you can still chill at home
do you have time this weekend
how about coming to my house
you haven’t come to my house in a long
time
yes if my memory serves me right
nearly four months
that’s right
oh dear
i’ve been free since yesterday
i have a whole week off to relieve
stress so
i’ll come to your house this weekend
great
what will we do at your home
what do you think about cooking
i’ve learned some new recipes
you’ll be the first to taste those
dishes
oh it’s my pleasure
just kidding
[Music]
anna
what dish will you cook
beef with wine sauce
i ate this at a restaurant last week and
loved it so i learned the recipe online
so exciting
what can i do
[Music]
um
you can peel the carrots and onions for
me
sure
everything else is fine just put it on
the stove and cook
looks like this is easy to make
right
let’s go to the living room to chat
this dish is just waiting to be cooked
about how many minutes
i think 20 minutes then
just eat
okay
[Music]
alice
what will you do after a week off
ah
a new project
i heard the manager talk about this
project
it’s shorter than the last project
but it still takes a lot of effort
how about you is your cosmetic store
doing well
yes not bad since the pandemic my shop
has had an online form
i’m also spending a lot of time building
up the store’s image on social media
that’s a good idea
i see a lot of stores with this new form
of sales
very convenient because of social
distancing
yes i also consulted many people
ah your skin is not good these days
right
your skin doesn’t seem as shiny as
before
oh girl
i was overworked
sometimes staying up late at night
for you
i think it needs moisturizing
i just imported masks to my store
i’m using it too very
good moisture please take it home and
try it out
thank you so much i think i have to care
more about my skin
anyway you still look pretty
ah thanks
uh last week i saw alex
how are you and alex
he’s been very fond of you since high
school
yeah i know but
i told him he’s not my type
so you’re going to be single forever
no way
i’m dating another guy these days
he’s my brother’s friend
very polite and gallant
ah
wow
this is the first time i heard that
are you going to hide it from everyone
no alice i’ve only known him a little
over a month
i’ll introduce you soon
can’t wait to see him
what about you and jack
i remember the last time i saw jack was
our class reunion
yes he’s busy too
even busier than me but jack and i are
fine
although we’re busy
we still make time to visit each other
sometimes go to dinner
[Music]
i really admire your love you guys have
been dating for two years
right nearly
three more days to our two-year
anniversary
we were going to travel but due to the
pandemic we couldn’t go
so we’re going to have dinner together
you’ll be the happiest person that night
so i have to dress beautifully but the
thing is i don’t have anything to wear
i need some new dresses
we can go shopping together
but wait until tomorrow
it was quite late by the time we
finished eating
no alice i mean we can go shopping
online
online shopping is the best choice
i also want to find jeans and sneakers
online
that’s a good idea
let me see
what type of dress do you want and what
color
a dress that’s a bit chic
black or white is great
they’re very easy to mix and match with
accessories
great
can this be
quite luxurious
but
it seems a bit long
ah yes
this is nice
nice length and good color
do you think a short sleeve dress would
look better
i think you look better with short
sleeve dresses
oh really i don’t know about this
hey alice this one
perfect
ah yes anna i love it
order it
yeah this shop is my favorite clothing
shop
i previewed these pants and shoes
what do you think
great anna it’s very suitable for your
style
dynamic
and youthful
hey
anna do you smell something strange like
a burning smell
yes what’s that
[Music]
oh oh my god
beef with wine sauce in the kitchen
[Music]
oh no
is it burned
[Music]
oh dear we forgot it
we left it there nearly 35 minutes
it’s completely burned
we should have set the bell to remind us
to turn off the stove
how careless
what should we do now
we can’t eat at home
i wanted to cook for you at home but
i failed
how about going out i know a good
restaurant near my house
the beef with wine sauce is quite good
you want to try
okay
sure sorry i invited you over to my
house to cook but i failed
next time i’ll cook it again
don’t mention it it’s okay
going out to eat is fine
next time you can come to my home and
cook
okay
let’s go
don’t forget to wear a mask
okay i remember

movie series last night
okay i will save a portion of it for her

hey do you recognize that it’s raining
outside

the forecast announces that it is going

how long have we gathered together and
watch tv huh
yes i can’t remember the last time we
are too busy recently
i really want to go to the nails and spa
shop
my nails are broken so i need to fix
them
let me see
you should arrange an appointment as
soon as possible
if not it may hurt you so bad
i know
are you free tomorrow do you want to go
there with me
absolutely after 5 pm
i have to complete my deadline before 4
pm
what about lisa we should ask lisa as
well
but what is she doing now
i will come to her room and try calling
her
[Music]
girls what should i do now i look so
stupid
[Music]
what did you do with your hair
guess who is this a clown in a gray
dress
do not laugh at me anymore i am freaking
out now
calm down what did you do with your hair
i just watched a video this morning
kind of
this one
hello beauties today i will show you how
i get my layer haircut
i had a lot of questions about haircuts
and i decided to cut it by myself
there are several easy steps
firstly getting your hair ready for a
layer cut
divide your hair into sections
make a ponytail at the top of your head
slide the elastic down the length of
your hair
cut off the end of your hair then remove
the elastic and examine your layers i’m
done
this is my hair after i do cut it by
myself it looks so perfect doesn’t it
how stupid i am i watched pony’s video
on youtube and then i followed her
guides
yes i
i did it following step by step but i
look
how bad is it
tell me what should i do now
does it look so terrible i have to go to
work tomorrow
[Music]
calm down lisa let me see your hair
first then we can decide if we can fix
it by ourselves
it turned out that she watched a
tutorial video on the internet
then she had a haircut by herself but it
failed
the front looked good but the back was
messy
it looks bad really i don’t want to
scare you but it is
yes i think so lisa
you should cut it too short hair
really
i was going to cut layers i still want
to keep long hair
is there any way
no way lisa
you should ask for our advice before
doing it
my bad
may you help me fix it i’m afraid of
being laughed at when i go out with this
hair
no worries at all i will take my hat for
you
emma can you call crunchy salon to book
an appointment for her
sure
[Music]
hello is it crunchy salon
yes i want to arrange an appointment
yes
wait for me a minute
what time is better for you lisa
as soon as possible please i can’t look
at myself in the mirror even for a
minute
when is the earliest time to make an
appointment
2 p.m in the afternoon
ok
yes lisa this number
thanks
do you go with me i don’t want to go
alone i’m afraid the hairdresser thinks
i’m mad
okay
now we can watch tv and eat cake there
are three hours left
[Music]
[Music]
that afternoon they went to the hair
salon to fix lisa’s mistake
emma and rosie waited for lisa in the
lobby
oh my god
what did you do with your hair
i guess you learned cutting hair on the
internet didn’t you
how do you know
in recent days many girls have come here
to fix their failed hair
don’t trust a hundred percent in what
you watch on the internet
luckily your hair is long so it’s easy
to fix
if yours was short
it would be a hard case
yes once and for all
i don’t think i can fix it to keep this
layer style
you can cut it into short hair i’m okay
with it
okay i have a catalog here so you can
have a look let me know which style you
want
finally lisa had to have short hair
the hairdresser helped her to have a
trending style
she looked better now
[Music]
at the barber shop
at the barber shop what activities can
you do
watch the video to know what they do
situation 1 ask customers for opinions
[Music]
hi mr bell what can i do for you today
hi
the same as usual um
the haircut and shave
right you cut the ground under my feet
i understand you’re my frequenter
okay let’s do it
sure take a sit down here and i will do
it for you
but how do you want your hair cut
just trim it lightly and remember the
beard shave also
of course
how about i do some new trendy
hairstyles it’s trendy these days
i don’t think i’m suitable for it i’m
gonna stick with the old classic style
like in the past few months ago i tried
dyeing my hair
people said that it makes me look older
i understand everyone suits different
hairstyles
yes so when i get a chance i’ll try a
different hairstyle for now i will leave
it as normal
okay
now you can lower your back and relax i
will start now
cool
[Music]
done you can look through it again if
there is anything you want to change
tell me
[Music]
to be honest the beard is okay but the
hair is quite long
a bit shorter
i think this is longer than my
expectations
okay no problem anything else or just
that
no that’s the only thing the rest is
okay i guess
is it okay now
perfect that’s the hairstyle i really
want you’ve done a great job i really
like it
thank you
[Music]
situation 2
overloaded barber shop
[Music]
hello can i help you
hi
i want to have a haircut but it seems
overloaded here
well unfortunately yes because today is
the weekend many people have booked to
have a haircut
oh what a pity so i need to go back home
but it is raining cats and dogs now
you can wait for us
there are only three more customers
ahead of you
where can i sit and wait
please sit and wait at the table over
there
we have a variety of books magazines
with different topics
or you can preview the hairstyle you
want to do in our photo album there are
many new hairstyles it’s also on the
table
okay sounds good you guys really
understand the need of customers
we always put the needs of our customers
first and you go there and sit first
please i’ll bring fresh tea and cookies
right away
thanks there seems to be a few people at
the waiting table maybe it’ll be my turn
soon right
yes i hope so
how long will it take
i think it will take you about 30
minutes don’t worry if it’s your turn
i’ll call you right away
i really appreciate your service that’s
the reason why i like your barber shop
and why you have many customers every
day
thank you so please wait a bit
okay
[Music]
situation three an appointment at the
barber shop
[Music]
good morning how can i help you
hi i want to have a hair dying
definitely yes but first can i know your
name to check the appointment
oh appointment the last time i came here
i didn’t have an appointment is that
right
yes actually you just need it to set in
order to be served better and faster
but if you didn’t i’m afraid you will
have to wait some time for your turn and
that is a little longer than usual if
you set an appointment first
tough break i didn’t even know that
well we started doing this last week
we’ve reminded customers through some
communication channels about this for
quite a time before
but i guess some of the customers are
way too busy to check that information
there are many people like you so don’t
worry
that’s right last week i was on the go
because of my deadlines at school maybe
that’s the time i missed your
information
right
so what should i do now do i need to set
an appointment now
if you have time you don’t need to do
that you can wait in line for your turn
great how long does it take
at the moment i think it will take you
about 20 minutes can you wait for this
time
if you are in a rush for somewhere else
i will help you to make an appointment
and you can come again later
in the time convenient for you
no today is my day off so i think i will
wait for it hope it won’t be too long
don’t worry please go to the table over
there and sit down to wait we have tea
cookies and magazines for you
okay i got it thanks a lot you’re
welcome
[Music]
situation for
a frequenter
[Music]
hey
long time no see jill
oh hey danny how are you these days
not too bad and is the business still
going well
you see
like any other business in the pandemic
my business wasn’t as usual
at the same time i still pay for the
rent expense monthly
me too my restaurant hasn’t had many
customers lately
most of them are at home because of
social distancing
it’s a good way but it makes it
difficult for business people like us
that’s really down on our luck
right but this pandemic appears suddenly
no one wants it
not only you and me but also some people
were no better
like a nightmare i hope we can manage it
luckily my house owner is really nice he
agrees to reduce the rent for me
wow such a lucky person you are
i should also make an agreement with my
landlord
yes you should do that
we have to try our best to manage the
situation
okay
anyway we have to go on with our normal
life
please help me cut my hair
of course do you still want to cut like
last time
right
okay i’ll do it right now
i will go to your restaurant for dinner
oh welcome or you can order food to take
home we have a delivery service
oh really is it new
yes one way to manage this situation
[Music]
future perfect tense
the future perfect is a verb form or
construction used to describe an event
that is expected or planned to happen
before a time of reference in the future
let’s watch the following video to learn
more about how to use the perfect future
tense
situation one
group assignment
[Music]
hey jenny alex jack
let’s stay for a while to have a group
meeting
sure
[Music]
i think the topic the teacher gave us is
so difficult
yeah
i think so
um
quite hard
we need to discuss this carefully
it accounts for 20
of our marks this term
our teacher said that we have to make a
short video about the effects of coven
19 on people’s lives
this topic requires a lot of knowledge
about reality from us
do you guys have any ideas
it’s a wide range of aspects we can do i
guess
for example education medical culture
oh
so many
what about others
well
i think so too
oh
why don’t we gather all the ideas from
members and choose the best one
because i think everyone has their own
thought and idea
good idea so can you create a file and
share it for everyone to write the ideas
in it alex
of course
i have a laptop here
i’ll do it right now
okay cool
we will have filled the ideas in the
file by 10 am tomorrow
we should think about the best and
easiest idea to make it as convenient as
possible when recording the video
are you okay
um too early
we won’t have completed it in a short
time
okay how about 12 am
is this enough
good
it’s enough time
and then we give each person a share to
do
for instance general introduction
influence
and some adaptation solutions
the video editing part is also quite
urgent
i can take charge of editing
very cool
so we will have finished this task by 8
pm tomorrow
that’s right
then it’s time to roll up our sleeves
and get the video done
great the location of the video will
have been chosen by 12 am the day after
tomorrow
that’s a great timeline i totally agree
[Music]
that’s good
situation 2
tomorrow presentation
[Music]
tomorrow is the project presentation day
for the partner company
this is really important so we must not
make any mistakes
we all know that so we are prepared
carefully don’t worry
okay good
ah i have just read again the report you
sent me yesterday
overall i think it is quite good full of
content
but i think there are still some small
mistakes
oh god i’m sorry
well
i’ve commented
check it please
and you have to edit as i suggested
check it a few more times to make sure
there aren’t any more mistakes
you will have finished this task by 5 pm
today that means before work
yes i remember that
cool how about the preparation
i need everything to be perfect
yes

[Music]

i feel exhausted because of the workload
at the same time i have to complete the
project in paris and deal with a new
project
[Music]
for you
you should take some rest today and pay
more attention to your health
would you like to come to my home and

tired
you may be more comfortable after that

i’ll show you my talent in cooking that
day
you’ll be surprised

saturday and sunday this week i will
have been in a meeting in paris
oh
friday
actually
friday evening i will be free but i’ll
be home late from work
i need to prepare something for the
meeting the next day
i won’t be able to help you prepare
dinner
don’t worry about those things
he said i would show off my cooking
skills
just kidding but trust me
but
i feel so shy
hey you can wash the dishes i will have
made the meal ready before the time you
come back from work
[Music]
situation four
when will he have done the deadline
[Music]
hey alex how are you
i’m good because i have finished my part
of our project this morning
now i’m free
how about you
yes yesterday i finished it indeed
finishing the tasks makes me feel over
the moon
yes i agree with you
i wonder if jack and lucy have finished
the lesson yet
i haven’t checked my messages since i
posted my part to the group this morning
so
i don’t know if they’re done or not
well lucy is already done after you
about one hour
and i don’t know what jack is doing
who knows
the deadline is 12 p.m tomorrow right
that’s right
he will not have done this before
tomorrow afternoon i’m sure
oh my god why
you don’t know because this is your
first time you worked with a team with
him
everyone knows he is the person who does
every task at the last minute
ah no not that but
nearly the deadline
why is he always busy
no even if he doesn’t do anything
there’s a lot of time but he still
doesn’t do it
i don’t know why
maybe it is his habit
oh
i think it’s a bad habit
especially when working in a team
this habit will affect other members
he should do it before the deadline a
bit to check in again with others
yes i told him many times before he said
i know i know i will change and nothing
changes
are you sure he will have finished it
yes he will have started to do it by the
afternoon tomorrow
he never misses any deadlines
okay i hope so
perhaps the next time i will set the
deadline earlier

closer to the city center but it’s not
noisy at all
and it’s so convenient that we have
everything from supermarkets the mall
the cinema to restaurants and coffee
shops nearby
yeah it’s great that everything is
within walking distance
moving to this neighborhood is such a
good decision don’t you think honey

such good neighbors nowadays i’m so glad
we moved

while

but why just sunday
i don’t know
that’s weird it’s not real
should we try to come by and take a look
really

give me the cross
[Music]

[Music]
situation three
picking apples
[Music]
honey
you look so good today
thank you
get in let’s go
look honey the leaves are changing their
colors
do you know why it’s called fall
because the leaves fall from the trees
at that time
that’s true
walking among the red leaves is always
an enjoyable experience
[Music]
you can walk and pick apples all day
today
sure
it is the activity i love most in the
fall
arrived
the trees bear good fruits
i swear it always tastes better than
buying in the supermarket
it makes my mouth water
do you know how to choose a perfect
apple
we should focus on the apple’s firmness
avoid apples that are noticeably soft
and mushy
what about color
should be red or have a pink orange hue
okay
we harvested lots of apples
yes
i think i will make some apple cakes
when we return home
great
i love apple cakes
do you want to go around
the weather here is so
wonderful
yes
who went here with you the first time
it was my grandma at that time we joined
a local fall festival

they always celebrate it once a year
i am so curious
i also want to take part in it
it is tomorrow
however it is monday unfortunately
oh what a pity
i really want to know how they prepare
and celebrate it
if you want to see how to prepare it you
can ask the farm owner
really
yes
he and his family may be cooking some
for the party
tomorrow excuse me
yes did you have a good time today
yes i did
i just want to ask about the festival
tomorrow
oh

unwind
moreover my friends are really into
films so it’s interesting to spend time
together

i love watching all genres
i try to absorb and enjoy
as many different kinds of films as i
can
whether it be the blockbuster adventures

to improve my english
how often do you watch films
well i am quite busy but i managed to
see about one or two films a week at
home
after a long day of studying i love
snuggling up on the sofa and watching a
film to relax
i tend to do this on friday and sunday
evenings with my friends
so interesting
what about you kate what do you do in
your free time
unlike you
i like to play tennis in my spare time
cool
playing sports will help you exercise
your strength

[Music]
how are you doing
i’m okay and you
so am i
do you usually have the weekends off
same as any other company i will have
two days off which is saturday and
sunday
but whenever a new project works i have
to work overtime even on the weekend
so what do you usually do if you get a
break
as usual i often go shopping in the
shopping mall with my mom all morning
in the afternoons i’ll take my dog for a
walk
do you often hang out with friends
of course
occasionally saturday night i would go
out to eat or drink coffee with a few of
my friends

can do whatever i want
i sometimes go out to go swimming
if it rains i will stay home and watch

dialogue 4 conquering the mountain is
very difficult
welcome to our sports news today tom
i’m so glad to be invited here today
as everyone knows you have conquered
mount whitney in california
that’s right
how long have you been climbing the
mountain
it’s been about five years incidentally
five years ago on a flight to new
zealand i watched the film everest
in which adventurers have conquered the
mountain in the blizzard i immediately
wanted to start
climbing so the movie inspired you right
exactly
what is the height of the highest
mountain you have conquered
it’s mount whitney in california the
highest in mainland america at 4
421 meters
that’s great i admire you very much
and when do you usually go climbing on
the mountain
my friends and i formed a climbing team
we are both freelancers so we usually
have a lot of free time
we usually spend the whole of december
climbing
is it difficult
i think it’s very difficult
i think the altitude awful weather and
punishing temperatures all pose a
serious threat to those who want to
submit the mountain
what difficulties do you face
my biggest difficulty when climbing is
about temperature i remember at that
time the temperature dropped to a
negative 20 degrees
there was also a blizzard
that’s terrible
is it dangerous
yes it’s very dangerous for us if we
weren’t careful we would have been swept
away by a blizzard

i took them out to double check the
quantity but
forgot to put them in the bag
mark
i had told you many times
you are so absent-minded
what do we have to do now mark
i don’t want to go back home too early
like this
i’m sorry honey i’ll go deep in the
forest to find wood for making steaks
it will be very dangerous
don’t worry mary i’ll be back as soon as
possible
be careful mark i believe in you
[Music]
mom
do you want to take a short rest here
we finish setting up the table and the
food
that’s a good idea
good job tom and lana
tom
what are you doing there
i’m looking at flowers and
they’re so small
i have a magnifying glass in the back
do you want to use it to see everything
more clearly
[Music]
sounds great lana
please take it out
you and i will explore what insects are
doing here
okay tom
[Music]
do you know what this is
is this a worm
i’m not sure tom
it doesn’t look like a worm
let me ask mom
mom
can you come here for a bit
yes daughter what’s the matter
mom
tom and i are wondering what is this
type of insect
it looks like a worm but
i’m not sure about it
hmm
let me see
oh this is a larva butterfly
have you ever heard about it
is it a little butterfly mom
yes but it looks very ugly right
let me tell you about the butterfly’s
life
[Music]
butterfly’s mom lays many eggs on fresh
green leaves or stems
after a few days
the shell of the egg breaks and a long
worm-like caterpillar comes out
it’s also called larva
oh it’s here
that’s right lana
a larva feeds graciously and grows
quickly in size
once the larva is big enough it stops
eating and enters the transformation
stage
it stops eating anything at this time
after a few days the shell of the pupa
breaks and an adult butterfly comes out
[Music]
wow it’s so amazing
i’m back everyone
yes daddy
could you bring the wood back to make
the camp for us
no i didn’t
sorry son
so
we’ll have to go back home now
we don’t have a place to stay in
haha
surprise
[Music]
where did you get them dad i thought you
left them at
home a long story i was looking for wood
when a snake appeared
it’s too big and terrible
i was so scared and ran as fast as
possible to get rid of the snake
luckily i saw an expedition team in the
distance and ran to them
when i got there i didn’t know that the
snake hadn’t chased me for a while
i told them about the stakes
fortunately they brought two sets of
tents so they accepted to loan me one
steak sat
so let’s make camp everyone
it looks so cool dad
[Music]
yeah let’s grill beef to you will take
beef in the blue bag out
your father and i will prepare for the
grill and seasoning to marinate the meat
yes mom
did you forget to buy coal mark
ah no mary
i will take it out for you
[Music]
i’m so sorry mary
what happened honey
i didn’t bring a lighter how could i be
so bad
oh no mark
i don’t know what to say now
have you searched for it carefully
you may have dropped it somewhere
let’s look one more time
if we don’t have a lighter we can only
make fire by rubbing the stones together
[Music]
it must be flint we don’t have any flint
here
so we should find the lighter first
[Music]
oh my god it’s here
what is here dan
i don’t understand what you had said
where did you get the matches
you are a savior of our family today
i took them from home
what’s the matter dad
i had forgotten the lighter at home so
we don’t have anything to make fire
fortunately now we can use your matches
to grow beef
here you are dan
you’re so absent-minded
mary you don’t need to look for a
lighter
i already have matches here
we can start grilling beef now
wow mark where did you get them
from our daughter lana
she has saved us today
what
let me see it
lana you shouldn’t play with fire it’s
so dangerous
you may get damaged or even make a
forest fire just by a match
how could it mom it’s just a small match
it could it’s the dry season so the fire
is easy to break out and spread
many forest fires caught from the
accident of human
don’t you know that
[Music]
i knew it mom
i will never play fire in the forest
anymore
you’re a good girl lana
oh thank you sweetie let’s grill the
meat now
mom please give me more beef
it’s so yummy today
yes i also feel that tonight’s meal is
so awesome
because today is a long day for everyone
all have to work so hard so i think
you’ll be very hungry

made your mom very tired

one of the most memorable days of our
family

together
yes please mom
it’s weird after finishing eating lana
ran up to her room immediately
it’s close to her favorite movie but she
won’t come down
i don’t know what’s going on here
i think she must have had too much
homework today so
she needs to go up to her room quickly
[Music]
lana

mom is peeling delicious apples
so
you won’t have any apples to eat if
you’re late in the living room
elena

show you
[Music]

[Applause]
what happened son you look so scared
calm down my boy

dad
lana looks so scared
lana has a scary mask
she wanted to scare me when i went up to
call her down for an apple
[Music]
poor son
is it really that scary
yes dad
i have never seen anything so scary like
this
lana
why did you threaten your brother
did you know that he’s very afraid of
ghosts
i’m sorry dan
i had apologized to tom but he was too
scared
so he ran away from me and told you
i was afraid of being scolded so i
didn’t dare to go downstairs
you need to promise that you won’t tease
tom anymore lana
then everyone will not blame you anymore
yes dad sorry
everyone
i will never tease brother tom anymore
i am so sorry tom
okay lana come here and eat apples with
us
by the way
it’s time for your favorite film

oh my god lana
what is this
you just threatened me out of my soul
mark look at your daughter she’s naughty
like a boy
dad that’s the mask
it looks really scary
lana
why are you still wearing the mask down
to the living room
i’m so sorry mom dad and tom
i just want to show tom that everything
on this mask is not real
i don’t want tom to still obsess about
this mask
oh lana i blamed you wrong sorry my
daughter
but i still think you should keep this
mask in your room
then you can come down here and enjoy
apples
yes daddy i got it
[Music]
tom
do you want to eat this final cake
i’m full now
no lana
i don’t want to eat your cake

tom if you finished your breakfast you
should prepare a school backpack and
clothes to get ready for school

tom
oh sorry mom goodbye mom

bye son bye mark have a good day
thank you honey
[Music]
wow this snake is giant
aren’t you afraid of it tom
i’m not scared
this snake is only in this film
do you think that harry potter can kill
it and save hermione
i hope so tom but he needs a very
powerful weapon
he can’t beat it by hand or magic
chopstick
he has to find it first
he doesn’t know where the snake is
that makes sense lana
mark can you help me to watch this
potato soup for me
it’s almost done but i need to go out
now to receive some important things
okay honey i’m coming now
tom and lana
can you tell me about the missing part
of the movie later

very smart boy

tom was just learning to talk
by the way
elena must be very different
i remember that she was very intelligent
yes lana is a cute girl
ah ben
when are you going to get married

i called to inform you that i’ll get
married to monica next month and the
wedding ceremony will be held at my
house and i would be very happy if you
and your family can attend my wedding
day
congrats ben of course
we will definitely come
oh no
what is this smell
[Music]
mark
what’s wrong with my soup pot
ben i have to stop the call now i just
made a big mistake
bye and
hope to see you soon my friend
bye mark
oh no mary
i forgot it i’m so sorry
we can’t eat it anymore mark
what will we use for our meal now
i didn’t mean to do it mary
ben called to inform me about his
wedding next month i was so busy talking
to ben and forgot to look at the soup
[Music]
really mark i’m so glad to hear that
so we will order pizza for our meal
and to congratulate ben
what do you think about it
aren’t you mad at me
i love your idea
okay
let me call pizza for everyone
hurry up mark i think that the children
are very hungry now
okay honey
[Music]
today lana’s teacher was called her
parents to report her mistake in class
watch the video to see why and how her
parents helped lana to realize her
mistake
do you think this word is pineapple
it is a yellow fruit and pineapple chunk
that can be used in desserts such as
fruit salads or cake
that’s right lana
let’s see the next word
this fruit grows on vines can be eaten
raw or cooked
and can be made into lots of things like
jam
juice
vinegar and oil
its name has five characters
is that pumpkin lana
i don’t think so
we make vinegar from pumpkin
also pumpkin has seven characters in it
what about grape lana
yeah i think it must be the correct
answer
you’re right tom
grape is a reasonable answer for this
word
only two words left we’ll finish all the
crosswords about fruit
i don’t know if mom and dad have
finished preparing dinner yet
i’m feeling a bit hungry now
yes tom
i’m also curious about what we’re going
to eat tonight
why is dad in the kitchen with mom today
i have no idea lana
i think we should focus on the two final
words here
i won’t win this game now
okay tom
it’s done mary
i washed and arranged all the
ingredients needed to make the pizza as
you said
thanks mark
can you help me to go out and buy some
drinks to have with the pizza
i’ll make the rest of the pizza and bake
it
of course mary i’ll buy a coke for you
and the kids
by the way do you want to drink beer
we haven’t drunk it in a long time
that’s a great idea honey
and remember to buy chili sauce the
chili sauce at home is gone
okay sweetie
i’ll go now
mark someone is calling for you
let me see
it’s lana’s teacher
i think she is called to report her
school results
let me answer the phone
hello mrs anne i’m lana’s father
hi mr mark how are you
i wanted to tell you a little bit about
lana’s situation in class
yes i’m not busy now i’m ready to listen
actually lana is quite naughty in class
these days
could you tell me a little more detail
what did she do at school
lana often teases her friends in
class she hides in the wall with a mask
and jumps out to scare her friends
some of them are startled and run away
or even fall
[Music]
oh no i’m so sorry about that
i already reminded her in front of the
class
but i still want her parents to know and
remind her a little more so that lana
realizes what she did wrong
that’s why i called you today
we’ll talk to lana right now
thank you teacher and hope you will help
lana more in class
i just wanted to inform you about it
elana is studying very well and
concentrating so
i’ll hang up the phone now goodbye mr
mark
a goodbye mrs anne
so
mary do you understand the situation
yes i got it i think you should talk to
lana
she was closer to you and listened more
to you
you should explain to her why she
shouldn’t tease you with masks anymore
at that time let me buy a drink and
chili sauce for you i believe you honey
okay i’ll talk to lana now
[Music]
lana
can you go to my room now
i want to talk to you for a while
yes dad i’m coming
so lana
did you often use the ghost mask to
scare your classmates
your teacher told me about it
and she was sad about you
she really doesn’t want you to do it
anymore
i’m sorry dad
i so regret doing that
you shouldn’t tease them too much or
they’ll be scared
if you want to tease your friends
they’ll gradually hate you
and stop playing with you
you’ll be very lonely then
[Music]
lana i am a bit sad when the teacher
calls and tells me about your mistake
promise me you’ll never do that to your
friends again
yes dad i promise
i believe you my good daughter
i will apologize to my friends tomorrow
and bring my candies for them
i think they’ll forgive me soon
that’s a good idea lana
dad where’s mom
i’m so hungry right now
she’s gone to the mini mart to buy some
things for dinner
do you want to play the spider-man game
tom yay i love the spiderman game
dad
lift me up there
okay tom
you shoot the thread and i’ll take you
where you want to be
[Music]
and
i also want to play a spider-man game
tom it’s your sister’s turn you’ve been
playing for a while so
take a break
yes dad
i will let lana become spider-man
and i’m iron man now
i can fire by my hand and i also have
iron armor
but you can’t fly like me
[Music]
flying is boring
now
i prefer to walk and fight with the
enemy
you’re so smart tom
oh
mom is back
yes i bought coke for you and lana
who wants to eat pizza tonight
really mom
we love pizza
okay just wait for me a few minutes
i had baked the pizza in the microwave
before i went out
and i think it’s ready to eat now
yay

[Music]
tom and lana you too have to wash your
hands carefully before eating
then please help me to bring the food to
the living room
today we’ll have dinner and watch a
movie
