Hello, friends.
Welcome to Let's Talk in English on this very special Saturday Review.
My name is Kevin.
Thank you for joining us today.
This week we talked about HABITS.
We talked about habits in the morning.
Do you wake up early in the morning?
Do you brush your teeth or hair?
Many people like to shower in the morning.
Some people just wash their face.
We also talked some more about TRAVEL, especially in LA or Los Angeles.
So why don't we go ahead and start learning with our conversations.
Hey, Joe! How are you?
Not good.
I was late for work today. Again.
Oh, no.
And I was late for work three times last week!
Why? Do you wake up late?
No. I wake up early!
But I'm still late to work!
Why? What do you do in the morning?
I wake up.
Then I get in the shower.
How long do you stay in the shower?
Not long. Maybe 10 minutes.
What do you do next?
I go into the kitchen.
And I make breakfast.
What do you make?
I make eggs or toast.
Or sometimes I eat cereal.
Do you eat fast?
Yes, I'm always hungry in the morning!
After breakfast, what do you do?
I brush my teeth.
Then I use my computer.
Do you check your email?
Yes. And I read the news.
And I look at Facebook.
I see.
And then you look at the time.
And you're late!
That's right!
Joe, don't turn on your computer in the morning!
Then you can be on time!
Hey, Ken.
You and Joe are roommates now.
Are you two doing OK?
Yes. Joe is a good roommate.
That's good.
But Joe is often late for work.
Yes. He has a bad habit.
He spends too much time on his computer in the morning.
Do you remind him not to?
I try, but we have different morning routines.
I get up after Joe.
Why do you get up later?
I shower at night, so I can get more sleep in the morning.
I see.
But you wash your face and brush your teeth.
Don't you see him in the bathroom?
No. We each have our own bathroom.
OK. What else do you do in the morning?
I do some exercises.
Do you exercise in the living room?
No, in my bedroom.
So you can't remind Joe then.
Do you see Joe at breakfast?
I don't eat breakfast at home.
Where do you eat?
I get fruit from the kitchen and eat it on the way to work.
And you don't see Joe in the kitchen?
No. When I leave, he is using his computer in his bedroom!
Hi, Rob!
Are you ready for your trip next month?
Yes. I have plane tickets to Los Angeles.
Los Angeles?
Aren't you going to Taiwan?
No. My family changed their plans.
I see.
Well, Los Angeles is a great place.
You can see a lot of famous sights there.
I know. We can go to all kinds of places.
Yes, you can!
But we only have one week there.
And there are a lot of places.
What places do you suggest?
Go to Hollywood!
You can see lots of fun things there.
Yes! My sister loves movies.
Maybe we can see a movie star!
You can!
You can see a lot of movie stars in the wax museum there.
Can you take pictures with the stars in the museum?
Yes. You can touch them, too.
And there is also a famous sidewalk in Hollywood.
It has stars on it.
Right!
The stars have movie stars' names on them.
We can find the names of our favorite actors.
We can take a lot of pictures.
You can.
Take a lot of money, too.
Hollywood is expensive!
Hi, Rob. What are you doing?
I'm reading about LA.
Are you taking a trip to LA?
Yes, I'm going next month.
Fun! I love LA!
How long will you be there?
About a week.
I'm meeting my family there.
You'll have a terrific time.
Where will you go?
We'll go to Hollywood, The Grove and a few other places.
I love to walk around Hollywood.
Why?
Because I see so many interesting people.
Do you mean strange people?
Yes. I like to watch the street performers, too.
You'll go to the famous Chinese theater, right?
Of course!
We want to see all the stars' handprints.
Shopping at The Grove is great, too.
Be sure to eat at the Original Farmers Market.
Where else should we go?
Universal Studios is really fun.
Hmm, my grandmother probably wouldn't like the rides!
LA has a lot of great museums, too.
The Getty Center is a beautiful art museum!
You know, Megan, I am afraid of one thing.
What's that?
You'll run out of money?
No, we'll run out of time!
One week won't be enough!

Hello, everyone. Welcome to Let's Talk!
You know, many people like to travel.
But how can we stay safe when we travel?
Well, today we're going to learn some tips about that.
Please help me welcome our guest for today - Ms. Tara Traveler.
Welcome to the program, Tara Traveler.
Thank you, Rob.
Tell us about travel safety.
First, don't carry large amounts of cash.
Carry a little cash and use a credit or debit card.
What about your valuables?
Don't carry them around!
Put them in a safe in your hotel.
What about just leaving them in your hotel room?
You can. But that's not always safe.
And when you're out seeing the sights?
Watch what's going on around you.
And keep an eye on your personal items.
Should you look at a map when you're walking around?
No. It's better to look at a map before leaving your hotel.
You meet friendly people when you travel.
You do. But don't be too trusting.
Don't share too much personal information with them.
Traveling can be a lot of fun, but you need to be careful.
Keep yourself and your personal items safe.
How? Don't carry large amounts of cash.
Keep a little cash with you and use a credit or debit card.
Leave your valuables in your hotel, but put them in a safe.
When you're walking around, watch what's happening around you.
Keep an eye on your personal items at all times, too.
Don't be too trusting.
Welcome back, friends.
I hope you learned from those conversations.
Now you can look at your conversations in your Let's Talk in English magazine.
What's going on, Chris?
I'm sorry. But I need to tell you this.
What could be this important?
I was talking to our friends.
Someone famous came to the Jungle Cafe this morning.
Yeah? Like a singer? A movie star?
No, no, no...
Not just any movie star.
Wait. You mean...?
Amely Amberson.
Oh.
Wh... What? When? Where?
Did you say "hi" to her?
Well, no. I was afraid to talk to her.
She's such a famous actor!
Well, why was she here?
Man! I wish I could have seen her.
Well, she came and ordered some toast.
But she looked really busy.
If she likes our toast, maybe she will come back for more.
Yeah.
Oh! Oh! Sorry! Sorry, friends.
We forgot you were here.
Well, why don't we come back in a bit and we'll practice some moreEnglish.
