hey, guy, salesman, Florida,
Hello, and welcome to Let's Talk in English here at LTE TV.
My name is Kevin.
And I'm happy you are here with me today this Saturday.
Now this week we met Megan.
We learned she works with Carol.
But she is a little shy.
We also talked about MP3 players.
Do you have an MP3 player with a touch screen?
Well, we're going to talk about them some more in our conversations.
Hi, Ken! Happy New Year!
Happy New Year, Susie.
There is a new girl in the office.
Did you meet her?
No. Tell me about her.
What is her name?
Her name is Megan Davis.
She is from Florida.
What is her job?
She works with Carol.
Megan is her new secretary.
Carol is busy.
She needs a good secretary.
Megan is nice.
But she is a little shy.
So she is not like me.
No. She doesn't talk all the time!
Hey! I don't talk all the time.
No. But you do talk a lot!
I know.
When can I meet Megan?
Maybe you can meet her at lunch.
She's busy now.
She must be hard-working.
We have a new guy here, too.
We do?
Why don't I see these new people?
They just started today.
You will meet them soon.
What is the guy's name?
His name is Joe Taylor.
What is his job?
He's an ad salesman.
He talks to people about ads on our programs.
So he talks a lot!
Hi! You must be Megan.
I am. I'm Megan Davis.
And I'm Ken Smith.
It's nice to meet you, Ken.
Nice to meet you, too.
Do you like your job here so far?
Yes, I do.
Carol introduced me to a lot of people.
Everyone is very nice.
They are. They're all very friendly.
Yes. Working here will be fun.
And you're from Florida?
Yes. I moved here after Christmas.
Where did you live in Florida?
I lived in Tampa.
I visited Tampa a couple of years ago.
It's a nice city.
Yes, it is.
I really miss it.
Tampa was too hot and humid for me!
Not for me.
Now I have to learn to like cold weather.
Is your family still in Tampa?
Yes. My parents, sister and brother all live in Tampa.
But they'll come here to visit me.
Good. They will enjoy our city.
But they won't visit in winter.
They don't like snow!
Do you?
Not really.
I turned up the heat in my apartment yesterday.
So it was hot like Tampa.
That's right!
Hi, Rob! What's that?
Did you get a new gadget?
Oh, hi, Carol.
Yes, this is my new MP3 player.
I got it for Christmas from my favorite aunt!
That's a nice gift!
It's very small.
Yes, it is.
I really like the size.
But it probably doesn't hold many songs.
Yes, it does!
It can hold about 2,000 songs!
Really? Wow!
I like the small size of this player.
I can use it when I exercise.
Yes, the size is perfect for exercising!
I love to listen to music when I'm at the gym.
I like the color screen on your MP3 player.
Me, too! The screen is small, but it is so clear and bright.
So how does the player work?
You just touch the screen to use it.
Like a tablet computer?
You just touch the screen to choose a song?
That's right.
I can make my own playlists, too.
So you can choose the best music to exercise to.
Right. I need fast songs when I exercise.
I can also listen to the radio with this MP3 player.
Really? What a great gadget!
I don't like this song.
How do I go to the next one?
You touch the screen to hear the next song.
Or you can shake the player.
I just shake it?
Yes! If you shake it, the player will play a random song.
So I can keep shaking it until I hear a song I like?
Yes! Isn't that fun?
It is!
Remember how I said you can listen to the radio with this player?
Yes, that's great.
I love the radio!
Well, with this MP3 player, you can also pause the radio!
How can you pause a radio program?
The gadget records the program for you.
So if you're busy for a few minutes, you can pause it.
Right!
Can the MP3 player do anything besides play songs and radio programs?
Yes! It also keeps track of my exercise.
How does it do that?
It knows how long I walk or run.
It tells me how many miles I've gone.
Really? That is so helpful!
Rob, you've inspired me!
Inspired you to do what?
Start exercising?
No. To buy an MP3 player like this for my son.
He loves to run!
Hello, and welcome back.
Let me ask you a question about the lessons we watched.
What happens when you...
Excuse me. Who are you?
I have never seen you at the Jungle Cafe before.
Hello, my name is Kevin.
I'm new here.
I'm from America.
Can you introduce yourself to me?
Yes. I am Christopher, but you can call me Chris.
I like to eat seeds and nuts.
That's cool.
What do you like to eat besides seeds and nuts?
I like to eat fruit.
Mmm, I like fruit, too.
So Chris, did you watch the lessons earlier?
Yes. Yes, I did.
Well Chris, can I ask you a question about the lessons?
Sure. I'm a very smart bird.
OK. What happens when Rob shakes his MP3 player?
Hmm... Oh!
The player will play another song.
That's right.
Good job, Chris.
Do you have an MP3 player?
Of course not!
Why not?
You can play and pause songs.
You can hold thousands of your favorite songs.
I can sing all the songs myself.
Why do I need an MP3 player?
That is a good point, Chris.
So would you like to work with me when we review our lessons?
Really? Can I?
Absolutely!
You should stay here with me.
And we will talk more with our friends later.
