Welcome back to the show, friends.
Now we want to play a key word game with you.
Today our game is called Two...
... in One.
Mmhm. In this game I will use two key words in one sentence.
Please tell me which key words I use in the sentence.
Here we go.
We were not allowed to complain in our house.
We were not allowed to complain in our house.
Well, I remember that "allow" was a key word, so that is one of the words.
And if you allow someone to do something, you let them do something.
But you can't do this. You can't complain.
So the two key words are allow and complain.
Yes. Those were both key words for today.
Great job.
Now let's review today's conversations together.
Hi, Carol. Do you have a minute?
Sure, Mark.
May I talk to you about Susie's dog?
Of course. Is there a problem?
Well, you allowed her to bring him.
He's a little puppy. He doesn't bother anyone.
I don't agree. He bothers me.
Why?
He doesn't stay with Susie. He walks around the office.
Then close your office door so he won't bother you.
He bothers other people, too.
He gets into people's garbage.
Then he takes garbage around the office.
That's not good.
But Susie cleans it up.
Yes. But some people still don't like him.
But he's a really nice dog.
I know. So people play with him and don't do their work.
Did you talk to Susie about this?
Yes. She promised to keep him in her office.
But she forgets to close her door.
At the end of the week, let's talk about this again.
OK. Dogs really don't belong in an office.
Well, some companies allow dogs.
But if many people complain, Rex will have to stay home.
Thank you, Carol.
Baby... Baby...
Here I am.
Ginger, I'm looking for the puppy.
You can stop looking.
I found Baby.
Baby, there you are. Where did you find her?
She was getting into the garbage.
Whoa, that's terrible!
I know. Getting into the garbage is my job.
Ginger!
Baby made a big, big mess.
Oh, no. Where?
Right where you're sitting.
Oh, no. Not again!
Don't worry. I know someone that will clean up the mess.
Really? Who is that?
You!
Yeah. But...
And don't complain!
(Music).
Hello.
(Chinese).
eREPORT.
(Music).
Hello, everyone.
My name is Daniel, and this is eREPORT.
Merry Christmas!
OK. Today is not Christmas, but it will be soon.
Today my friends and family are going to decorate our house for Christmas.
Do you know about Christmas?
Christmas is a special holiday for many people around the world.
(Music).
The Christmas season is often a happy time.
People love to sing Christmas songs and decorate their homes.
Usually in a house we'll have many Christmas lights.
Sometimes you can see the Christmas lights outside.
Often Christmas lights are put on a Christmas tree.
Having a Christmas tree is very popular.
Families like to decorate a Christmas tree with lights and ornaments.
Sometimes a person puts a star on the top of the tree.
Then there are the gifts.
The Christmas gifts are put under the tree.
Here they will stay until Christmas Eve or morning.
Children and adults love celebrating Christmas.
There we go. I finish decorating my house.
My tree is up and ready. Look at the lights.
Oh. This is so beautiful!
I want to tell my family to come up.
But we're now getting ready to go to a Christmas concert.
I love Christmas concerts.
You can hear the story of Jesus' birth 2000 years ago.
And there will be some wonderful music.
Oh, so much fun! I'm so excited!
OK. Well, friends, this is Daniel for eREPORT wishing you a Merry Christmas.
Calendar Phrase.
I'll clean it up.
I'll clean it up.
(Chinese).
That lady made a mess.
I'll clean it up.
That man made a mess.
I'll clean it up.
That kid made a mess.
I'll clean it up.
Oops.
Hey! You made a mass!
Yeah. Will you clean it up?
No.
I'll clean it up.
I'll clean it up.
(Chinese).
I hope that Rex is good at the office. Then he will be able to stay.
I think most people will be happy to have him there.
Except Mark. He really does not think that a dog should be allowed at work.
But if Rex is good, maybe Mark will start to like him, too.
Well, that would be great.
Maybe Mark needs to give Rex another chance.
But I agree that Rex should stay home if he is causing problems.
Yes. People should not have to watch pets at the office.
They are there to work.
Well, we won't hear any more about Rex tomorrow.
We have a different kind of lesson.
That's right. A special guest will tell us how to get along with others.
Don't miss it!
We hope that we will see you all next time right here on...
Let's Talk in English. Goodbye.
(Music).
