0:06 In this lesson, we will listen to people asking for help in different situations.
0:17 Excuse me. I’m looking for the wine section.
0:20 The wines are in aisle 7. Follow me, I’ll show you.
0:24 Oh, thanks. This is a big supermarket.
0:28 Yes, it is. I think it’s the biggest in this neighborhood.
0:32 Here we are. Thanks for the help.
0:35 My pleasure.
0:36 Let me ask you one more thing. Where do I find cheese?
0:41 The cheese is in the dairy section, in aisle 14.
0:45 No, it’s okay. I’ll be here a minute choosing the wine.
0:49 No problem. If you need anything else, any store employee can help you.
0:53 Great!
0:55 By the way, our domestic wines are on sale. There are some very good ones.
0:59 Good. You’re very helpful. Thank you.
1:08 Good morning, Claire. Could you help me with the new copy machine?
1:11 Sure, no problem. What do you need?
1:14 There are so many places to put the paper; I never know where it goes…
1:18 How many pages do you need to copy?
1:21 I need three pages. It’s the weekly financial report.
1:24 Ok. Put the three pages here…right. Now select the number of copies you need.
1:32 I need two copies.
1:34 So, now you push ‘2’ and the ‘start’ button.
1:39 Well, that was easy enough. Thanks!
1:46 Excuse me. Could you help me? I need directions to the National Hotel, on Main St.
1:53 Sure. It’s not far from here. You can walk.
1:56 I know. I just came from there, but I don’t remember the name of the street I took to get here.
2:03 It’s easy. Take this street and go straight ahead two blocks, then make a right on Main St. You’ll see the hotel.
2:13 Thank you.
2:14 No problem.
2:17 Just one more thing…do you have the time?
2:20 Yep…it’s four fifteen.
2:29 Excuse me, Ms. Morgan, I’m not sure I understand what I have to do…
2:35 Kenny, in this activity you have to find the adjectives in this text.
2:42 Oh, the adjectives?
2:45 Do you remember what an adjective is, Kenny?
2:48 Sure! It’s a…it’s a…it’s like a description, isn’t it?
2:55 Well, in a way, yes. It gives quality to a noun. For example, when you say ‘intelligent man’, what’s the adjective?
3:07 The adjective is intelligent.
3:11 Very good, Kenny. Now find them in your text.
3:20 Excuse me. I’m looking for the wine section.
3:27 Here we are. Thanks for the help.
