Hello, everybody and welcome to Let’s Talk in English right here at The Mall.
My name is Tom.
And I have a question for you.
Do you have anything that you like to do?
What do you like to do?
What are you good at?
Do you like to show others what you like to do?
What kind of talents do you have?
Maybe you can do something in a talent show.
As you know I love to play drums.
What talents do you have?
Well, friends, we’re going to find out something today.
It’s the answer to today’s FIND IT question.
The FIND IT question is ”What didn’t Amy hear about?”.
Here it is again.
What didn’t Amy hear about?
Hmm, well, we’re going to find out today.
For now let’s go and learn more with Christina.
Hi, friends, welcome to the Information Desk.
I’m Christina.
(Chinese).
Who wants to sign up for the talent show?
Hi, Amy.
Are you on your break?
Yes. I go back to work in... 20 minutes.
Great! Then we can discuss something!
Discuss what?
The mall’s talent show!
Really?
I didn’t hear about it.
Why is the mall having a talent show?
So more people will come to the mall and shop.
Read this!
Hi, friends, welcome to The Mall.
I am Amy and here is Tom.
Now earlier you saw Jack and I, and we’re talking about the mall’s talent show.
Now I am a little nervous about this talent show.
But we can discuss that more later.
First, let’s look at our first key word.
And it’s discuss.
discuss.
discuss.
When you discuss, you are talking about something with someone.
You share your ideas and discuss with them.
So you can discuss something with someone else.
Let’s talk about this.
Let’s discuss this.
Hmm, use this key word like this.
Maybe you need to move somewhere.
You need to discuss where you will move.
You need to discuss where you will go next.
Can we discuss our decision to move?
Now Jack wants to discuss with me about the mall’s talent show.
And talent is our next key word.
talent.
talent.
talent.
When you have a talent, you can do something special.
You can do something very, very well.
Hmm, can you sing, or maybe you can dance?
Maybe you can draw pictures or paint.
Or maybe you can play sports pretty well.
These are all different kinds of talents.
Now, Tom, what is your talent?
Hmm, well, one of my talents is that I like to play drums.
I play the drums.
I’ve been playing for a while.
I think I’m pretty good.
I think that is one of my better talents.
You are.
You are a very good drummer.
Well, thanks!
You know, it would be fun to be in the talent show.
When you’re in the talent show, you can show and share your talent with other
people.
That is a talent show.
Now, friends, did you find it?
We have a FIND IT question.
The question is ”What didn’t Amy hear about?”.
What didn’t Amy hear about?
Well, the answer is ”Amy didn’t hear about the mall’s talent show.”.
That’s OK.
Now you know.
Now I know.
And, friends, let’s review our key words.
The first word is... discuss.
discuss.
Kevin and James discussed the idea before deciding.

Right now we’re going to go to our Read It paragraph.
Here we go.

Well, here Amy and Jack are reading some information about this talent show.
And in this information we find out that there is a prize.
That’s always an exciting thing.
A prize.
And that’s also our key word here.
Friends, say this word with me.
prize.
prize.
prize.
P-R-I-Z-E.
Now a prize is what you get when you do something really well.
If you are at a talent show and you get a prize, that means you did better than
most other people.
If you get first prize, then you did better than everyone else.
You get a prize.
Let’s use the word in this sentence.
When I win this contest, I get a prize.
OK, so what is your prize for winning this contest, Amy?
Hmm, my prize is to get a free lunch at the Jungle Cafe.
Wait! A free lunch at the Jungle Cafe.
That doesn’t sound bad.
Free food is always a good thing.
Or at least I think it sounds like a great thing.
Well, friends, we find out that you can come and sign up before April 15.
And these our next key words.

When you sign up for something, you put your name down so that you can be a part
of that thing.

Now, Tom, are you gonna be in that talent show?
Well, no, I’m not going to be in the talent show.
At least not yet.
I didn’t sign up.
But it’s not that I don’t want to be in the talent show.
I just have not signed up yet.
Well, you’d better sign up before April 15.
It’s true. I should sign up pretty soon because maybe I’ll get a prize.
Friends, let’s review these key words.
The first one is prize.

The flier says, ”Don’t miss this chance.”.
Don’t miss your chance to do something.
Friends, if you want to do something, don’t miss the chance.
There is an opportunity.
Don’t miss it!
Well, don’t miss this chance to enjoy Conversation B.
Let’s do that right now.
So are you going to be in it?
Yes. I’m going to sign up.
What will you do?
You have a lot of talents.
Thanks!
I can sing, or maybe I’ll act.
Will you act alone?
Maybe, but I can also be in a play with other people.
Who?
Maybe Tom, Pam, Emma... you.
Me? I don’t know how to act!
Hi, friends, welcome back.
Now Jack has so many talents.
He can sing and he can act.
Hey, that’s our key word act. act. act.
When you play the part of someone else in a story, then you are acting.
You are being someone else.
You’re not being yourself.
You’re acting.

Well, friends, do you like to act?
You can ask someone this question today.
Do you like to act?
Or, do you like to do other things?
Well, Tom, do you like to act?
Yeah, actually - thanks for asking me, Amy - I do like to act sometimes.
I think that it’s fun being someone else.
It’s fun to try to... maybe be like my favorite movie star.
Or someone that I don’t know very well.
I can try to watch them, and then act like them.
What about you, Amy?
Do I like to act?
Yeah, do you like to act?
No, I don’t like to act.
I don’t know how to act.
Oh, well, that’s OK.
You can always learn how to act.
You said, ”I don’t know how to act.”.
Well, hey, even though you don’t know how to act, I think that’s a pretty good
phrase to know.
Friends, I don’t know how to do something.
If you don’t know how, you can use this phrase.
If people are talking about dancing and you don’t know how to dance, - you have
never danced before, say, ”I don’t know how to dance.”.
