It is time to practice with a game we like to call: I Know It!
I Know It!
Do you know it?
Now we are going to talk about one of today's key words.
And when you know which word we are talking about, we want you to say, "I know
it!" Today it's Kevin's turn to share.
OK.
When we are talking about the weather, we use this word.
We use this word when we want to talk about how hot it is or how cold it is.
I know it! I know it!
I think I know it.
All right, why don't you tell us?
Is the word "temperature"?
You do know it.
It is temperature.
OK. Thank you, Kevin.
Now let's review today's conversations.
Rob, what did you think of those video clips?
Several of them were pretty good, Carol.
Many people want to be our new weather reporter.
Who should I hire?
Who has the most experience?
Grant Cliffson.
I wouldn't hire Grant.
Why not?
I don't like his voice.
"There is a 20 percent chance of rain tonight.".
You're right.
A weather reporter should have a nice voice.
Did they all go to good schools?
Yes, I think so.
Even Kathy Smith?
Yes. Maybe I should hire her.
She is really pretty.
But she didn't seem very smart.
Well, she has a lot of energy!
That's true.
"Be ready, everyone, because it's going to be windy today!
There will be lots and lots of wind!".
What did you think of Abby Lee?
I liked Abby.
She did a good job on her video clips.
I agree.
But was she too quiet?
I don't think so.
"Today the temperature will reach 50 degrees." Abby was just calmer than Kathy.
You're right.
I'm going to ask Abby to come in for an interview.
That's great.
Thanks for your help, Rob.
Oh, there's a 20 percent chance of rain tonight.
No rain.
I just saw the weather report.
There's a 20 percent chance of snow tonight.
No snow.
There will be clear skies tonight, Ginger.
I know. But I'm practicing.
I want to be the new weather reporter.
Ginger, weather reporters should be pretty.
Yeah. And I'm so beautiful.
Well, weather reporters should be smart.
Yeah. And I'm so smart.
And weather reporters should have experience.
Experience?
Yes. Do you have experience?
No.
I didn't think you had experience.
And I don't think you'll get the job.
Oh, is there a 20 percent chance?
Hello.
(Chinese).
Do you often go to school or work when it's sunny in the morning, but rainy and
windy in the afternoon?
And what do you usually forget to bring?
That's right, an umbrella.
If only you knew what the weather would be!
Well, don't worry.
You can now check the weather forecast from your phone.
You can get a new app for your phone.
We call this app Sunny2day.
Download the Sunny2day App to your phone and find out if tomorrow will be cloudy
or clear.
You can also check the temperature for tomorrow.
Wow!
Will it be hot or cold, cloudy or clear?
The Sunny2day App will tell you everything.
It's easy.
It's fast.
It's Sunny2day.

Well, now it's time to Answer It!
Question number one.
What does Rob not like about Grant Cliffson?
What does Rob not like about Grant Cliffson?
Well, we find the answer in Conversation A.
Rob doesn't like Grant's voice.
Now here's our second question.
Would you like to be a TV weather reporter? Why or why not?
Would you like to be a TV weather reporter? Why or why not?
Hmm, I don't think so.
Because sometimes they have to be outside in bad weather reporting the weather.
Well, that's true.
Well, we hope that you can practice asking and answering these questions today.
And then come back again tomorrow right here on...
Let's Talk in English.
Goodbye.
