Let's Learn English 2- Lesson 2: The Interview:
| Anna | Ms. Weaver is giving new assignments out. I am ready to take on anything she gives me. Well, except reporting traffic from a helicopter. Wish me luck. |
| Professor Bot | I wonder what Anna’s new assignment will be? Professor Bot here! While you are watching, look for phrasal, or two-word verbs. Some stay together, like “go back” and some can come apart, like “give [assignments] out.” Good luck, Anna! |
| Ms. Weaver | So, as I said at the meeting last week, I have new assignments for everyone at The Studio. Anna, you're good at asking questions. So, I want you to go back to hosting and reporting. |
| Anna | That sounds great. |
| Ms. Weaver | You're also a team player. So, I want you team up with someone ... |
| Anna | That sounds even better! |
| Ms. Weaver | ... someone who is very "different" from you. |
| Anna | That sounds ... what do you mean "different"? |
| Ms. Weaver | Well, you are very cheerful, you're a people person. I want you to team up with someone who ... isn't. |
| Anna | Ms. Weaver, I will find that person. |
| Mimi | Excuse me. Are you using this chair? |
| Pete | Yes. |
| Anna | Pete, hi! Thanks for meeting me. |
| Pete | Sure. But I don’t have lots of time, Anna. I’m busy looking for work. |
| Anna | Pete, you can tear these want ads up and throw them away! I have good news! |
| Pete | Anna, I was working on that crossword puzzle. |
| Anna | Oh. Sorry. Sorry. Pete, forget about the crossword puzzle. I have a job offer for you! |
| Pete | I'm listening. |
| Anna | My boss wants me to team up with someone to host a talk show. But the person must be different from me. So, I thought of you. |
| Pete | Different from you? What do you mean? |
| Anna | I'm sorry, Pete, I don't have time right now. Here's my boss's address. Your interview is tomorrow morning at 10 am. |
| Pete | But what do you mean “different”? |
| Anna | Just be yourself, Pete. Just be yourself. |
| Professor Bot | Did you find any two-word verbs? Here’s one example. Pete can throw the wants ads away! Throw away is a two-word verb. |
| Ms. Weaver | Thanks for coming in, Pete. |
| Pete | Thanks for the opportunity, Ms. Weaver. |
| Ms. Weaver | I need to find out if you have the skills for this job. And I want you to be completely honest. |
| Pete | Okay. |
| Ms. Weaver | First, let's talk about your personal skills. Pete, are you a people person? |
| Pete | Well, okay, sometimes I think people talk too much. |
| Ms. Weaver | Pete, what work of yours are you most proud of? |
| Pete | Last year, I locked myself in a cabin and wrote a book. I didn't speak to anybody the entire time! It was the best two months of my life. |
| Ms. Weaver | Okay. I think I’ve heard enough. |
| Anna | Hey! Hey, Pete, how was the interview with Ms. Weaver? |
| Pete | Well, she said I was grumpy and not good with people. |
| Anna | And … ? |
| Pete | And, I got the job! |
| Anna | I knew it! Congratulations! Let's go celebrate. |
| Pete | Okay! |
| Professor Bot | Did you find more two-word verbs? Here is the list. |
