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.

Let's Learn English 2- Lesson 1: Budget Cuts:

Anna	Hum. Oh! “Important meeting. Everyone must come.” Well, back to work! And my boss has called a meeting. I wonder what it's about. Maybe we're all getting raises! Ooo, there's Jonathan! Maybe he knows.
Professor Bot	Hi! I'm Professor Bot! This video is all about work. People talk about jobs and things that happen at work. Your assignment is to find as many work words as you can. Don't worry, I'll help.
Anna	So, Jonathan, what do you think today's meeting is about? The email sounded important.
Jonathan	Well, I have heard people in the building talking about budget cuts.
Anna	Oh! Budget cuts? Wait, who has been talking about budget cuts?
Jonathan	Mark in Accounting.
Anna	Mark in Accounting? That's one person. That's not “people.”
Jonathan	I know, but Mark knows everything that goes on at The Studio.
Anna	That is true. But wait, look at us. We shouldn't gossip. That's how rumors start. We'll just go to the meeting and see what happens.
Jonathan	You're right. No more talk about budget cuts.
Amelia	Budget cuts? Oh no!
Amelia	I just heard Anna and Jonathan talking about budget cuts.
Kaveh	That must be what the meeting is about. When there are budget cuts, people lose their jobs.
Amelia	Not you. You're a good reporter.
Kaveh	And it's not you. You've done a great job as a videographer.
Amelia	I can't go back to being a detective. Criminals scare me!
Kaveh	And I can't go back to being a teacher! High school kids scare me!
Professor Bot	Did you hear any work words? They talked about a lot of jobs. You can make the name of a job by adding an ending to a verb! Kaveh reports, so, he's a reporter. Amelia used to detect, so she was a detective. If you teach, you're a teacher. And a videographer….uh, I think you understand. Back to the story.
Kaveh	Penelope, have you heard the news? Today's meeting is about budget cuts.
Penelope	That's awful! What should I do?
Kaveh	Update your résumé. I’ve already updated mine. I’ll see you at the meeting.
Ms. Weaver	Hello everyone! Quiet, please. Quiet, please!
Ms. Weaver	This meeting won’t take long. Then you can all leave.
Ms. Weaver	What is wrong with everyone? You look like I'm going to fire you. Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha! Seriously, what is wrong with everyone?
Anna	Excuse me, Ms. Weaver?
Ms. Weaver	Yes, Anna.
Anna	Well, everyone has been worrying about, you know … We’ve been worrying that you are going to fire us!
Ms. Weaver	I’m not going to fire any of you! No! The reason for this meeting is to tell you what a good job you’ve been doing and give out new assignments. Budget cuts have been happening. But only one person has lost their job -- Mark in Accounting? Now, let’s talk about those new assignments.
Professor Bot	Ms. Weaver's team is doing a good job! How did you do? Did you find all of the work words? Here's a list you can check.

I’ve made many good friends. And I have a great job! And I've taken a lot of chances. And now I have some really big news! Wait for it… and 3, 2, 1…
Kelly	Hello and welcome to “Around the Corner and Across the Street from the Actor’s Studio!” Many people dream of becoming actors. But very often, those dreams don’t come true.
Kelly	Well, today we will meet a woman and -- her acting career has really taken off. In fact, she acted in my play, “The Woods Are Alive!” Oh. She really brought the part of Tree Number 15 to life! Let’s give a warm welcome to Anna Matteo!
Anna	Thank you. Thank you so much for having me here.
Kelly	Please, please, sit down. Here, here, let me help you.
Anna	Thanks. Thanks. Wow, it is great to see you again, Director Kelly!
Kelly	It’s great to see you too, Anna. I see you are still wearing your tree costume. Does this have anything to do with your big news?
Anna	Yes. Yes, it does.
Kelly	Well, Anna, please share that news with us.
Anna	Kelly, I will be acting in three movies.
Kelly	That is amazing! Anna, tell us more.
Anna	Well, the first is a science fiction movie. The second is a romantic comedy. And the third is an action movie.
Kelly	That is so great! Let me guess -- you’re playing a tree in all of them!
Anna	Yes! This is what happened. To prepare for your play, I had to find out what it was like to BE a tree in the world. I had to find out where to eat, where to shop, where to meet people and how to get around the city.
Kelly	Amazing. I think big things are going to happen for you, Anna. So, tell me, will you be moving to Hollywood for a career in movies?
Anna	No. I’ll make the movies and then come back. Washington, D.C. is my home.
Kelly	I’m sure your family is very proud.
Anna	Yes, they are. You know, Kelly, not too long ago, I didn’t feel very good about my life. I had to make a change. So, I took some chances. Sometimes I succeeded. Sometimes I failed. But I will never stop trying.
Kelly	Well, thank you for sharing your news and so much more with us, Anna.
Kelly	Until next time …

Let's Learn English - Lesson 50: Back to School:

Anna	Hello, and welcome to Georgetown University in Washington, D.C.! I am going back to school! Georgetown is the oldest Catholic and Jesuit university in the United States. The Jesuits are a religious order known worldwide for their many colleges and universities. Students have been studying here since 1792!
Sarah	Hey, are you finished with your report?
Taylor	Almost. I have been writing and re-writing since last night! The subject is really interesting to me.
Sarah	Me too! I have been studying this topic* for a long time.
Anna	Am I late?
Sarah	You’re a little late. But don’t worry. The professor isn’t here yet.
Anna	How long has the class been waiting?
Taylor	We’ve only been waiting for about 10 minutes.
Anna	Oh good. Oh, no! I forgot my pencil sharpener. Excuse me, do you have a pencil sharpener I can borrow?
Taylor	No, sorry.
Anna	Oh wait. I found my extra one! Whew, that was close.
Anna	So, how long have you been studying at Georgetown?
Andrew	I’ve been studying here since 2015.
Anna	Awesome. You know, I've been wanting to go back to school for a long time. So, here I am!
Andrew	Well, you picked a great school. I’ve been really happy here.
Anna	Awesome. See, I’ve been working for several years now. So, going back to school makes me a little nervous.
Randall	Don’t be nervous. Just pay attention and do your best!
Anna	That is great advice. You know, I have been paying attention. But sometimes I still feel like I don’t understand. Like last week …
Anna	What’s that?
Jada	This is my draft.
Anna	What draft?
Jada	The professor told us to bring our drafts.
Anna	I think she said “giraffe.”
Jada	No. She didn’t.
Anna	Here comes the professor.
Dr. Jones	Hello class! Sorry I'm late, but the snow storm made getting here really difficult. I see you’ve been waiting very patiently. So, let’s get started! Who wants to give their talk first?
Anna	Oh! Oh! Please, please pick me.
Dr. Jones	Anna?
Anna	Who me? Sure. Thanks.
Anna	Here is my report on “Violins in the City.”
Anna	People have been looking for a solution to the problem of violins in the city. I say stop! Stop! They are not the problem! In fact, violins are part of the solution!
Anna	Violins create beautiful music that can fill a city with hope.
Dr. Jones	Anna …
Anna	If we put a violin in the hands of every child …
Dr. Jones	Anna! The topic is “Violence in the city.” Violence. Not violins.
Anna	Until next time …Like I was saying, many people are saying that violence in the city is a problem. A very big problem.

The International Spy Museum has created an amazing collection of spy things! And today, we will see them! My boss, Ms. Weaver, has sent me here … on a mission!
Ms. Weaver	Hello, Anna, are you there?
Anna	That’s her. Yes, Agent Peacock. This is Agent Flamingo, reporting for duty.
Ms. Weaver	Agent what? Look, Anna … I mean, Agent Flamingo, I want you to learn all you can about spying.
Anna	You mean, collect intelligence?
Ms. Weaver	Yeah, it’s for our new show -- “D.C. Secrets.”
Anna	You've got it, Agent Peacock. The mission is safe with me.
Ms. Weaver	Oh, okay, great. Just be back by noon.
Anna	Agent Peacock, I’m at an air duct!
Ms. Weaver	Yes, spies sometimes sneak down air ducts.
Anna	I have never snuck down an air duct. It’s dark and small. I’m afraid of dark, small places.
Ms. Weaver	You can do it, Agent Flamingo. You know, spies aren’t afraid of a little darkness.
Anna	Right. It’s just an air duct -- a dark, small air duct. Okay. I’m doing it, Agent Peacock! I am sneaking down a long, dark, small air duct. I’m having a little trouble breathing.
Ms. Weaver	Just keep going, Agent Flamingo. Think of the team!
Anna	Okay, I will think of the team. I’m thinking of the team, Agent Peacock! I did it! I did it! I sneaked down an air duct. That was a little uncomfortable.
Ms. Weaver	Good!
Anna	What's the next mission?
Ms. Weaver	Umm … have you ever cracked a code?
Anna	No.
Ms. Weaver	Well, go learn. Spies use their brains.
Anna	Got it! I’ve never cracked a code before. Let’s try, Agent Flamingo! This is really hard. I'm still trying to crack the code. I've cracked the code! I've cracked the code, Agent Peacock! My brain really hurts.
Ms. Weaver	Great. Umm, Agent Flamingo, now answer this question: Do spies have to be in good shape?
Anna	“Yes,” Agent Peacock! Spies have to be in really good shape! Can you hear me?
Ms. Weaver	You’re breaking up, Flamingo.
Anna	The International Spy Museum is awesome! Agent Peacock, I completed the mission!
Ms. Weaver	Great. Great. Now, I have another very important mission for you.
Anna	Got it. See you back at H.Q.!
Ms. Weaver	Yummy! You brought my lunch! Thanks, Agent Flamingo!
Anna	Mission completed. Agent Peacock!
	(Amelia makes a face.)
Ms. Weaver	Don't ask.
	Special thanks go out to the International Spy Museum for letting us film in the museum!

Anna	(sees a tourist at a sign) Excuse me, can I help you? Have we met before?
Jean	I don’t think so. I’ve just flown in from Boston. My name is Jean.
Anna	Hi, Jean! I'm Anna. I really feel like we’ve met before. Anyway, how can I help?

Anna	I can help with that. I’ve lived in Washington, D.C. a long time. I think I’ve seen all the museums.
Jean	Wow, thanks. So, tell me, which museums are good?
Anna	Well, they are all good. But they’re all different. There are science museums and history museums and art and culture museums.
Jean	I want to see an unusual museum.
Anna	I like the Sculpture Garden. Have you ever seen sculptures in a garden? It is really artistic!
Jean	I have never seen a garden of sculptures! I’ll write that on my list!
Anna	Have you been to the Museum of the American Indian? I’ve visited that museum many times. It is very peaceful.

Anna	Well, I have lived here for over a year.
Jean	You’re so lucky to live in such a beautiful city filled with so many museums and a zoo!
Anna	What? D.C. has a zoo?
Jean	Yes, and it’s beautiful. You’ve lived here for so long and you haven’t been to the zoo?
Anna	I've never been to D.C.’s zoo. I've never been to any zoos!
Jean	You have never seen zoo animals?
Anna	I grew up on a farm, Jean. I've known farm animals my whole life.
Jean	But the zoo has lions (makes sound of lion roaring) and elephants (makes sound of elephant trumpeting) and zebras (makes no sound)! If you have never seen a real, live elephant, you must. They are so majestic.
Anna	I will. I will! (writes list) There. I’ve written my own must-see zoo animal list!
Jean	Have fun at the zoo and thanks, Anna!
Anna	Have fun at the museums, Jean! And thank YOU!
Anna	This has been awesome! And I have seen every animal on my list! Jean, the tourist, helped me see more of my city. But where have I seen her before?

Pete	What?
Anna	You are out of gas.
Pete	I can’t be out of gas. (looks at gauge) I’m out of gas. Sorry, Anna. I’ll go get some.

Anna	You know I love Washington, D.C. But I want to see more of the United States. My roommate Marsha and I will be on vacation at the same time. So, we are going on a road trip together!
Anna	Hi, Marsha!
Marsha	Hi!
Anna	I packed my bags and I am ready to go!
Marsha	Did you make a list of all the places you want to see?
Anna	I did. I want to see New York City and the Statue of Liberty!
Marsha	And I want to see Mount Rushmore!
Anna	(Anna writes) Mount Rushmore.
Marsha	And don’t forget the Grand Canyon!
Anna	(Anna writes) Let’s not forget California’s redwood forest! There are so many places to see!
Marsha	We will be driving for a long time. So, we might get bored.
Anna	Bored? No way! We can talk.
Marsha	Or not talk.
Anna	We can play word games. We can sing! You know, our trip is like that famous American song. (sings) "This land is your land, This land is my land …"*
Marsha	(sings) "…from California to the New York island ..."
BOTH	“... to the redwood forest to the Gulf stream waters ... this land was made for you and me!”
Marsha	Will we be stopping soon?
Anna	We won’t be stopping soon.
Marsha	I’m hungry.
Anna	Marsha, we just left D.C.! We’ll be eating lunch in about 2 hours. Can you wait?
Marsha	I guess.
Anna	Here, have an apple. It’s organic!
(Anna throws the apple. It goes out the window.)
Marsha	Thanks.
Marsha	Okay, we will be arriving in New York City very soon!
Anna	I can’t wait to see The Big Apple! Marsha, look! There she is!
Marsha	The Statue of Liberty!
Anna	She is awesome!
Anna	Marsha, in ten minutes, guess what we’ll be seeing?
Marsha	What?
Anna	The largest rocking chair in the world!
Marsha	No, we won’t be seeing that.
Anna	Marsha, it’s on my other list Best Roadside Sights.
(Marsha grabs the paper and throws it out the window.)
Anna	Oh no! We littered! And my list is gone. Don't worry. I brought the book. (lifts up large book, starts reading)
(Later)
Anna	… and that is why I am so afraid of sheep.
Marsha	(snores a little)
Anna	Wow, I feel better. Marsha, you are a great listener.
Marsha	(waking up) Where are we?
Anna	We will be entering North Dakota any minute now!
Marsha	North Dakota! We are going in the wrong direction! We want to go to South Dakota!
Anna	No problem. I will just exit the highway. We will be going south … in just a minute. There. Done! We're going south! Okay, we will be stopping for gas and a bathroom break in about an hour.
Marsha	Then we will be very near to Mount Rushmore!
Anna	Yay! Dead presidents’ heads on the side of a mountain!
Anna	We did it, Marsha! We made it to California! It’s beautiful!
Marsha	And we saw everything on the list!
Anna	Well, we saw everything on page 1 of the list.
Marsha	What do you mean "page 1?"
Anna	Oh. Here are pages 2, 3 and 4! We’ll be very busy driving back to Washington, D.C. Until next time … !

Let's Learn English - Lesson 44: Making Healthy Choices:

Anna	Hi there, Ashley!
Ashley	Anna! Hi! Where are you going?
(Anna’s stomach growls loudly)
Ashley	What was that?
Anna	I’m hungry. When I’m hungry, I only want to eat junk food! But I know I should eat healthy food. So, I fight with myself. One side says, ‘You should eat healthy food.’ The other side says, ‘But I want to eat junk food!’
Ashley	Well, Anna, go to the Giant supermarket. You should be able to find all kinds of food there for all of you.
Anna	Good idea, Ashley. See you later!
Ashley	'Bye, Anna.
Anna	Wow! This supermarket is huge! Look at all of these fruits and vegetables! I should eat more vegetables.
Healthy	Good idea, Anna. You must eat more vegetables … like celery!
Junky	Celery?! Do you know what the web says about celery?
Anna	No, what?
Junky	“Celery is 95 percent water 100 percent NOT ice cream. I love the web!”
Healthy*	Anna, you mustn’t eat junk food. Junk food will kill you.
Junky*	You are being silly.
Healthy	No, you are!
Junky	No, you are.
Anna	Will you two please be nice to each other? It is important to eat healthy foods. But, a little junk food will not kill me. Hmm, ice cream. Ice cream does sound good.
Junky	Take this cart to the frozen food aisle!
Healthy	No wait, go back! Go back! We forgot fruit. Go back!!
Anna	Okay, we are in the frozen food aisle!
Junky	Mmm, ice cream!
Healthy	Mmm, frozen peas!
Junky	Nobody says, ‘Mmm, frozen peas. They say, ‘Mmm, ice cream!
Healthy	Mmm, frozen peas!!
Junky	Mmm, ice cream!!
Anna	I am not going to tell you two again! Stop fighting!
Anna	I smell fresh bread! I love the smells of a bakery!
Healthy	Oh, Anna, let’s buy a fresh loaf of whole wheat, organic bread!
Junky	You don’t have to buy bread. Buy some donuts, Anna!
Healthy	You mustn’t buy donuts. They are only fat and sugar.
Junky	Exactly! You know, you are really no fun at all.
Healthy	And you must think having high cholesterol is fun.
Junky	Everyone likes donuts! That is why you don’t have friends!
Healthy	And that is why your cholesterol is so high!
Junky	My cholesterol is none of your business!!
Healthy	And I have lots of friends!!
Anna	Stop it! Stop it! Stop it! I am sick and tired of the both of you!!
Anna	I know what you two need!
Junky	Anna! What are you doing?
Healthy	Put me down!
Anna	You two need to cool off!
Anna	I am going to go buy my healthy food and my junk food! Good bye!
Anna	Until next time …
Note	"Healthy" and "Junky" are Anna's thoughts about what she should eat.
