Dec 7

I. Correction:
Boy: Who’s he?
Mother: I don’t know. He’s somebody new.

Boy: What’s he doing?

Mother: He’s going to the mogyoktang (the public bath).

Boy: Why is he going there?

Mother: He must be going to relax, or to take a shower (OR: have a shower).

II. Today's Conversation

Mrs. Lee: Today I helped somebody who couldn’t speak Korean. He had wanted to buy something. I helped him (to) do that.

Charles:
That’s very nice!

II. Everyday English


Mary: Going to class is hard in the morning!

Nancy: Yeah. Let’s go early (ER-LEE) so we can hang out in the hallway with the boys.

Mary: Where is Sally these days?
Nancy: I don’t know. I think she is doing a lot of work in the library.

Mary: I saw Sam the other day. He was reading notices on the bulletin board in the afternoon, after lunch..

Nancy: He likes talking with friends, so he goes to the bulletin board to meet them before class.

Mary: The football guys were teasing him though. They were not being silly. They were unkind to him!

Nancy: Oh! The teacher wanted us to write out the questions (KWES-tions), not just the answers. I hate writing out the questions! Did you do it?

Mary! I only wrote out the answers! I had to go to the volunteer club at night, so I had no time!
