Hi, Mark.
How was your weekend?
Good morning, Ken.
My weekend was great.
What did you do?
I went to the mall.
My nephew's 10th birthday is next week.
I bought a gift.
What did you buy?
I got some comic books for him.
That's a great gift!
Lots of kids love comic books!
Do you like comic books?
Yes, I do.
I collect comic books.
I like the pictures.
That's cool.
Does your nephew collect comic books, too?
No, he just reads them.
He loves stories about heroes.
Many comic books have stories about heroes.
The heroes fight the bad guys.
Yes. And the heroes usually win!
My favorite comic book is Superman.
The artists draw so well!
You're right.
The pictures are great.
Do you draw, Ken?
Yes, I do.
It's one of my hobbies.
Can you draw a comic book?
I can be the hero!
You can be SuperMark!
What's your super power?
I'm super fast!
Hi, Mark.
Hi, Ken.
What are you guys doing?
Hi, Susie.
We're reading comic books.
The covers look interesting.
These comic books are interesting.
Do you read comic books?
No. Aren't comic books just for kids?
No. Anyone can read comic books!
Even adults?
Yes, of course.
Comic books are for all ages.
I read them all the time!
Did you see Batman and Superman?
Of course! I saw those movies.
Batman and Superman are super!
The movies are based on comic books.
That's right.
I forgot about that.
The first Superman comic book was printed in 1938!
Wow. Superman is really old!
You're right.
Superman is old, but it's a classic!
Do you read any kind of comics, Susie?
I like to read cartoons in the newspaper.
Newspaper comics are good.
Sometimes they are funny.
But they can also be serious.
You're right.
Susie, do you have a favorite cartoon or comic strip?
Yes, I do.
Peanuts is my favorite comic strip.
It's funny and cute.
Hi, Ken.
Hello, guys.
What's wrong, Ken?
Are you sad about something?
Yes. My favorite restaurant will close soon!
That's too bad.
Which restaurant?
Sunny's!
It's a small place near my apartment.
Why do you like Sunny's?
The food is really good and really cheap.
Why will the restaurant close?
I don't know.
The place is always crowded!
So you must be surprised by the news.
I am.
I eat dinner there a lot!
I'm sorry, Ken.
When did you find out?
This morning.
Susie is sad today, too.
You are?
Why?
Is your favorite restaurant closing, too?
No. Someone died.
I'm sorry.
Was it someone in your family?
No. No one in my family died.
Was it a friend?
No, not really.
Who was it?
A character on her favorite TV show died!
So you are unhappy about that?
Yes! And I'm mad, too.
I really like that character!
Well, the show is a drama!
Bad things happen.
Did you see Ken today, Rob?
Yes. Are you looking for him?
No, I saw him, too.
He looked upset.
He is.
His favorite restaurant is closing.
Oh. That's too bad.
He'll be OK.
Hey, guys.
I have good news!
You do?
What is it, Carol?
The TV station won three awards!
Three awards!
That's fantastic!
I know!
I'm so excited!
What were the awards for?
Tell us more!
Our website won an award for its design.
Our web designers will be proud!
They should be!
I'm proud, too!
We got another award for one of our news stories.
Which news story?
The story about the lost little girl.
Oh, yes! Her whole community helped look for her.
Right. They always had hope!
And they found her!
Wonderful!
So we won the award for great reporting.
That's right!
And what was the third award?
The third award is for our cameraman on that story!
Ken!
Wow! You'll have to tell Ken!
Yes! This news will cheer him up!
(Music).
Hello, everyone.
Welcome to Let's Talk.
Do you like to laugh?
I do.
Well, today I have a very funny guest.
Please.
Let's welcome a very funny person, Mr. Humor!
Thank you, Rob!
I'm glad I can make people laugh!
Ha, ha.
Laughter is important.
Tell us why.
Laughter can help lower stress levels.
That's one reason you feel good after you laugh!
I know I always do!
Yes. And with less stress, your body can fight illnesses.
So laughter can keep you healthy!
Rob, after you laugh a lot, do you ever feel tired or sore?
Yes! Sometimes I feel as if I just ran a mile!
That's good!
Laughter is good exercise.
It helps your blood move through your body more easily.
It relaxes your muscles, too.
So laughter helps your heart?
Yes, it does!
Laughter really is the best medicine!
Then I'll try to laugh more!
Hahaha...
Have you ever heard someone say, "Laughter is the best medicine"?
Laughing really is good for your body.
Laughter can lower your stress level.
That makes you feel better!
And when you have less stress, you can fight illnesses.
Laughter is also good exercise!
After you laugh a lot, you may feel as if you just ran a mile!
When you laugh, your blood moves through your body more easily.
That's good for your heart.
Laughter relaxes your muscles, too.
Welcome back, friends.
I hope that review was helpful for you.
Let's answer some questions now.
Questions again?
Oh! Katie! I was really enjoying my name.
Chris, you're the Jungle Cafe bird.
You're supposed to help out the LTE teachers.
All right, all right.
Don't get all upset with me.
OK, I won't.
All right, friends, let's answer some questions now.
What is Ken's favorite comic book?
I love comic books.
My favorite comic...
Chris! Chris, I asked what Ken's favorite comic book is, not yours.
All right, then.
Ken's favorite comic book is Superman.
Good job!
You're right.
OK. Next question.
Katie, I didn't get to say my favorite comic book.
Right... right now, Chris?
We're in the middle of a review.
Please!
All right, fine.
Go ahead.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
My favorite comic book is Captain America.
All right. I hope you feel better now.
I really do.
Let's keep reviewing.
What's taking so long?
Well, that's what I was trying to do, but you... oh, never mind.
Next question.
What was Carol's good news?
Ah, ah, yes.
That is a bit harder.
But I know it.
The TV station won three awards.
You are right.
Good answer.
OK. Here is the last question.
Oh, so many questions, Katie!
Well, I have to make sure you were paying attention.
Ready?
Why is laughter good for you?
Good question!
I love laughing.
Laughter is good because it lowers your stress levels.
Great job, Chris.
You're right.
Friends, let's take a short breaknow.
