And we are back.
Chris, did you watch the basketball game yesterday?
Yes, I did.
It was an exciting game.
That's right.
There were a lot of baskets made.
Did you see the one guy where he passed the ball behind his back?
Oh, yeah!
And his teammate caught the ball and threw it into the basket.
Yeah, that was really cool.
Chris, you can also say "shoot it" or "shot it" into the basket.
More people say it that way.
Oh. OK. Well, I'm glad the Hawks won.
Really? I did not know you were a Hawks fan.
Of course I am.
I'm a bird.
Hawks are birds.
Of course I'm a fan.
OK. Well, that makes sense.
Why don't we watch this week's features.
I know you are all fans of that.
Wow! I just saw a great basketball game.
I had the best seat in front of the whole game.
I could see everything on the basketball court.
I could see every throw, every catch, every pass and jump.
I didn't miss anything.
It was very exciting.
But this is the cool part.
Did I go to the basketball game?
No.
Did I have to wait in line with real people?
No.
Did I leave my house?
No.
I was in my living room all evening.
So how did I see the game?
I saw the basketball game with my new 3D HEAD TV.
Just put on this HEAD TV and use the Internet.
You can watch all basketball games this way.
You can also watch other sports, too.
It's so easy and convenient.
Order your 3D HEAD TV today and get a free ball.

eREPORT.
Hi, everyone.
This is Anna for eREPORT.
And I'm hungry.
I think I'll go to a restaurant... a sit-down restaurant.
A sit-down or family restaurant is different from a fast food restaurant.
At a sit-down restaurant, you sit at a table and someone serves you your food.
Come on! Let's see what's for dinner.
At a sit-down or family restaurant, you sit at a table.
A server brings you a menu.
You can take your time to look at it and order your food.
The server will ask you about drinks first.
He or she will often bring you water, too.
The water is always cold.
If you want warm water, you must ask for it.
After the server brings them, he or she will take your order.
Then you wait for a while.
And the server brings your food to the table.
If you order soup or salad, your server will bring that first.
When you finish your meal, the server will bring you the bill or check.
Sometimes you pay the server.
Sometimes you go to the front of the restaurant to pay.
Always leave a tip for the server.
It is polite to leave 15 to 20 percent of the bill for a tip.
You can leave it on the table when you leave.
Mmm, that meal was so good.
I really enjoyed it.
And I didn't have to wash the dishes or clear the table.
Well, I paid my bill.
I left a nice tip for our server.
And now it's time to go for an evening walk.
This is Anna for eREPORT at a sit-down restaurant.
It's good to see you here.
And it's good for me to be here.
I am Super Sentence Man.
And in today's lesson, you heard Rob say:
Tell us about tipping.
Well, not everyone agrees on who to tip.
You see the super sentence here is:
Not everyone agrees on something.
Not everyone agrees on something.
You can use it like this:
Not everyone agrees on what to wear.
Not everyone agrees on where to go.
Not everyone agrees on what to watch on TV.
Of course, not everyone agrees on what to eat at dinner.
Not everyone agrees on what movie to see in the theater.
Not everyone agrees on the best season.
Is it spring, summer, fall, winter?
Not everyone agrees on these things.
Not everyone agrees on who should be president.
Yes, that's true.
Not everyone agrees on which cellphone is best.
Is it this one or this one?
Not everyone agrees.
Not everyone agrees on when to go home.
Not everyone agrees on which restaurant is best.
Well, I like the one behind me.
I think that one is best.
I will go there for dinner.
Now it is your turn.
Use this super sentence in your own way.
And always remember, a super sentence every day will make your English great.
Everyone can agree on that.
Now it is time for me to go.
Goodbye.
