You're watching Let's Talk in English.
This is the show where we learn English and we have a lot of fun together.
My name is Katie, and we are glad that you joined us for our lesson today.
Our topic is PEOPLE.
And we have a lesson called - What Does She Look Like?
What Does She Look Like?
Nathan, do you know what she looks like?
Uh. I don't even know who she is.
So I don't know what she looks like.
Hello, everyone.
My name is Nathan.
It's great to spend some time with you today.
Well, we need to start our lesson.
So find your magazine and turn to today's Read It.
You can read along with Nathan right now.
Carol has a meeting with a guest today.
But where is the guest?
Megan can look for her.
Carol tells her about the guest.
The guest has an oval face.
She has fair skin and wears round black glasses.
Her hair is not long.
It is shoulder-length, curly and brown.
So a guest is at the studio.
But where is she?
I... I can't believe that they don't know where she is, Nathan.
Well, this girl has never been to LTE TV before.
But they know what she looks like.
So I think they can find her.
Well, you're probably right.
We found out a lot of things about the girl in our Read It.
So I think that we all know what she looks like now.
You're right.
We'll find out what happens later.
But now let's go to Christina and learn our key words for the day.
Hello.
(Chinese).
Megan, I have a guest today at 3:00.
But she's not here.
See if you can find her.
Sure, Carol.
What does she look like?
Her hair is brown.
She has an oval face.
Does she have short hair?
No. Her hair is shoulder-length and curly.
OK.
Does she wear glasses?
Yes, she wears black glasses.
(Music).
Well, first, let's learn about a great sentence that you can use.
Carol says, "I have a guest today at 3:00." I have something today at some time.
I have a test today at 12:00.
I have band practice today at 4:00.
Try to say your own sentence, everyone.
Yes, I think it will help you.
But Carol's guest isn't at the studio.
She tells Megan, "See if you can find her.".
Hey. The phrase "see if" is something Christina wants to talk about.
Let's see what she has to say.
(Chinese).
Thanks, Christina.
So we can use this phrase often.
Carol wants Megan to look around the office and try to see if she can find the
guest.
So now we learn an important question, and it's the title of our lesson:
What does she look like?
Now why is this question important?
Well, every person in the whole world looks different.
So if you want to find someone, you need to know things about that person.
You need to know what color a person's hair is.
What are some hair colors, Katie?
Well, there's black hair and brown hair.
Hey, you have brown hair, Nathan.
And some people have blond hair, like me.
It's almost yellow.
And some people even have red hair.
That's a really cool hair color.
You do not see it a lot in Asia.
That's true.
But today's guest has brown hair.
Many people have brown hair.
So she might be kind of hard to find.
That's true.
But her face is oval.
Do you think that would make her easy to find?
I'm not sure.
I don't always look at the shape of people's faces.
But oval is a shape that's a little longer than a circle, kind of like an egg.
Well, that's good to know.
So there's one other thing we know about our guest.
And here's another thing, she does not have short hair.
OK. That's great.
She has shoulder-length hair.
That means her hair hits right about here.
Hey, my hair's shoulder-length, too.
That's right.
And you also have curly hair, just like the guest.
Wait. Are you Carol's guest?
Well, I have the shoulder-length, curly hair.
But Carol's guest has brown hair, remember?
Oh, that's right.
And you don't have glasses, either.
Carol's guest wears black glasses.
OK.
I guess you aren't the guest.
Oh, good job, Nathan.
OK, friends, now we need to go on to Conversation B.
Hi, Mark. Can you help me?
Sure, Megan.
I'm looking for Carol's guest.
He or she?
She.
What does she look like?
Does she have long hair?
She has shoulder-length, brown hair.
Her face is oval.
She also wears glasses.
Does she have fair skin?
I'm not sure.
I can ask Carol.
So, what do we know about Carol's guest?
Let's review.
We know she has brown hair and it's shoulder-length and curly.
And she has an oval face.
And she wears black glasses.
Those are a lot of things, but Megan still can't find this guest.
So she asks Mark for help.
If you need help, you can ask someone: Can you help me?
That's very polite.
Yes, it is.
And then Megan says, "I'm looking for Carol's guest." Hey, that's an important
sentence today, isn't it, Nathan?
It is.
That's our Use It sentence for today.
Let's go see Elizabeth.
(Music).
Hi, friends.
Let's learn to use the pattern:
I'm doing something for something.
For example:
I'm waiting for the bus.
Or... I'm looking for a book.
Now it's your turn to use it.
(Music).
Thanks, Elizabeth.
That's a very helpful sentence.
So Mark asks Megan next, "He or she?" He wants to know if the guest is a boy or
girl.
But Nathan, we already know the guest is a girl.
Carol said it was a she.
So why does Mark ask?
Well, Mark did not hear Carol say that the guest was a girl.
So he did not know if he should look for a boy or a girl.
Oh. Well, that's true.
He needs to know if he should look for a boy or girl if he wants to help Megan.
Right.
So he asks some good questions that you should ask if you are trying to find
someone, too.
He asks if the girl has long hair.
If you have long hair, your hair is past your shoulders.
It goes down your back.
But the guest's hair isn't too long.
Right. She has shoulder-length, brown hair.
And Megan tells Mark the other things he needs to know about the guest.
So now he asks another important question.
Does she have fair skin?
He wants to know if her skin is light or dark.
Yeah. Now Katie and I both have fair skin.
Our skin is not dark.
So the guest might have skin like us.
But Megan is not sure.
She's... she... she...
Um, Katie, do you know what you just did?
Do you know?
Uh, no, Nathan.
I was just...
What did... what did I do?
You just used today's Calendar Phrase.
I'm not sure.
I'm not sure.
(Chinese).
Does Mary wear glasses?
I'm not sure.
Does Mary have long hair?
I'm not sure.
Does Mary have blue eyes?
I'm not sure.
Who is Mary?
I'm not sure.
I'm not sure.
I'm not sure.
(Chinese).
Well, that is a good phrase to use when you don't know much about something.
Right now we need to take a short break.
So we'll be right back after this.
