Oh, hello, and welcome to the Saturday show of Let's Talk in English.
My name is Gabe.
Very glad you could join us today.
We're going to review our lessons from this week.
Let's see. What did we talk about this week?
Ah, we talked about drawing.
Drawing is fun.
And of course, we learned about an art museum.
Ooh, here's a good question.
What's on your social media page?
And social media websites, are they good or bad?
Oh. Oh. Did you see that?
There's a mosquito flying around.
And it landed right here in my book.
Ooh. Let's see. What happened?
Oh, it looks like mosquitoes can make art as well.
Well, mosquitoes can be annoying, but this one is not annoying anymore.
Friends, right now it's time for us to review this week's lessons.
But listen carefully because Ginger and I have some questions for you very soon.
Drawing is a fun hobby for many people.
What kinds of things do people draw?
They draw shapes, people, animals, scenery and more.
Some people can draw anything!
People can draw with a pen or a pencil.
They sometimes use colored pens or pencils too.
Then the picture has color.
Some people are very good at drawing.
They love art and are very artistic.
Hi, Ken!
Hi, Susie.
What are you drawing?
I'm drawing something in the park.
Oh, is drawing one of your hobbies?
Yes, but you can't see my picture yet.
Does your picture have color?
Yes.
Are you drawing something brown?
No, this thing is not brown.
Is it blue?
No, it isn't. Guess again.
Is it something red?
Yes, it is! I'm drawing something red!
What shape is it? Is it square?
No, it's not square.
Is it round?
Yes, some of it is round!
You're drawing something round and red.
Well, I'm drawing many round, red things.
I know! You're drawing those red flowers!
Yes! Here's my picture!
You're really good at art!
Thanks!
Almost every city has an art museum.
Some cities have more than one.
Many people like to visit art museums.
At art museums, people can see paintings, drawings, statues, photographs and
other kinds of artwork.
Many different kinds of things can be art.
Sometimes furniture, dishes or clothes are on display at an art museum.
People can also learn about famous artists and painters at art museums.
Hi, Grace.
Oh, hi, Susie! I didn't see you!
What are you reading?
I'm reading about the art museum.
I want to go there on Saturday!
It's a great museum.
There are some beautiful paintings there.
Some paintings by my favorite painter are there now.
That's great! Who's your favorite painter?
Vincent van Gogh.
Oh! He's a very famous painter!
Almost everyone knows him!
I love his "Starry Night" painting.
Me too!
But the museum has more than just paintings.
I was just reading about some of the drawings there.
The museum has statues too.
Here's one of the statues.
It's black and very large.
It's a statue of a woman.
I want to see the furniture on display there too.
It's very modern and artistic.
Can you sit on it?
I'm just joking!
Most people join one or two social media websites.
On these websites, people communicate with friends.
Some members put a lot of personal information on their social media pages.
They share their thoughts, pictures, videos and current location.
They may even share their address and phone number.
Other people share very little.
They may not even post their own picture on their page.
Rob, are you working?
No, I'm posting pictures on Facebook!
Are you working now?
No, I'm looking around on Google Plus.
I joined it last month.
I'm not a member of Google Plus.
Do you like it better than Facebook?
I like both.
But I don't share much information on them.
Why not? I do!
I know. You always post pictures!
I love to share my photos with my friends.
You always share your location too.
Right! My current location is the Jungle Cafe!
Should I share that you're here with me?
No thanks.
I don't like to share much personal information.
Don't you like to communicate with your friends?
I like to look at my friends' photos and information.
But I don't like to post my own.
Social media websites have changed the way we communicate.
Is that good or bad?
Probably both.
You can share news and photos faster than ever.
And sharing your current location makes it easy to meet with friends.
But sharing a lot of private information could be bad.
People like your boss or co-workers might see information that you don't want
them to know.
Your posts could even put you in danger.
Mean people could see your location and rob your home.
How exciting!
What's so exciting?
My friends are getting married!
I just saw their news on Google Plus!
That's great!
I love seeing my friends' news so fast.
Social media websites really help us communicate better, don't they?
Probably, but sharing a lot of information isn't safe.
Sure, it is.
Just make your page private.
Then only your friends can see it.
Your friends might let their friends look at your page.
That can put you in danger.
How?
Mean people might see your information.
They could rob your house when you're not home.
I don't share my location often.
That's good.
In my opinion, there's only one bad thing about social media websites.
What's that?
I spend too much time on them!
Most people like butterflies.
But other insects can be really annoying.
Mosquitoes fly around people and make an annoying noise.
They bother people when they're trying to sleep.
And they bite!
Bees can be annoying too.
Some people are afraid of them because they can sting.
Some insects come inside homes and other buildings.
They are looking for food.
Cockroaches do this.
A lot of people are afraid of cockroaches.
Ants come inside too.
They are tiny but they travel together.
Are you tired, Ken?
Yes. I didn't sleep well last night.
There was a mosquito in my room!
How annoying!
I know.
The mosquito was flying around my head.
I couldn't sleep.
Did you try to kill it?
Yes, but I couldn't find it.
I hate annoying insects.
Me too.
There was a cockroach in my office last week!
Oh, no!
Cockroaches run so fast.
I'm afraid of them!
Many people are.
They really bother me.
Ants bother me when they come into my apartment.
They are just looking for food.
I know. But I don't like them in my house.
Well, most ants can't hurt you.
They're different from bees or mosquitoes.
Right!
And tonight I'm going to find that mosquito in my room.
Hello, friends.
I'm here with Ginger...
Ginger, what was wrong?
A mosquito just bit me.
Oh? I think I see it.
Oh. Thank you.
You're very welcome.
Now Ginger, can you help us ask the first review question?
Sure. Question number one.
Who drew red flowers this week?
Who drew red flowers this week?
Do you know?
That's right.
Ken drew red flowers this week.
OK, here is question number two.
Who does not like to share much personal information on Facebook or Google Plus?
Ginger, do you know the answer?
Yes, I do. But I don't want to say it.
Um, why not?
Because it's personal.
Ken probably doesn't want me to tell everyone.
Wait, wait, wait.
Who doesn't want you to tell everyone?
Ken!
Well, Ginger, I think you just said the answer.
Oh, no!
Ken will be angry with me.
Oh, no, no, no. Don't worry.
Uh, we won't tell him.
Friends, it's true.
Ken does not like to share much personal information on Facebook or Google Plus.
You're doing a great job.
Now it's time for abreak.
