Let's Learn English 2- Lesson 6: Will It Float?:
| Penelope | Anna, thanks for taking me on a tour of D.C. today. |
| Anna | Sure thing, Penelope. You are new to town. And a tour is the best way to see more of the city! |
| Penelope | So, which tour are we taking – the one that goes through the city on a bus? Or the one that goes along the river in a boat? |
| Anna | Both! |
| Penelope | What? Anna, this isn’t going to be one of those trips, is it? |
| Anna | No. Follow me. |
| Professor Bot | In this lesson, you are going to hear lots of prepositions! What’s a preposition, you ask? It’s a word that shows relationships between things. Anna says they are going on a tour through the city and along the river. Through and along are both prepositions. Watch for more! |
| Anna | Well, Penelope, there’s our ride! |
| Penelope | What is it? |
| Anna | It’s the famous DC Ducks -- the boat with wheels! We will ride on the road and then sail on the water! |
| Penelope | Who thinks of these things? |
| Anna | I don't know. But I’m glad they do! Let’s get aboard, Sailor! |
| Penelope | (looking at a brochure about the boat) Hey, did you know that this bus … um, boat was created during World War II to carry people and supplies? |
| Anna | Wow. You know, a tour is so much more interesting with Fun Facts, like that one. |
| Penelope | I agree. I love Fun Facts! |
| Boy | Did I hear you say you love Fun Facts? |
| Anna & Penelope | Yeah. |
| Boy | Well, I have tons of Fun Facts for this tour! |
| Anna & Penelope | Great! |
| Anna | Penelope, where are his parents? |
| Penelope | Maybe - maybe he’s the Captain’s son and he helps his dad on tours! |
| Anna | Oh yeah! It would be so awesome to ride around the city in a boat all day with your dad! |
| Penelope | This is amazing, Anna. There are so many beautiful buildings along this road! |
| Anna | Hey, the Washington Monument is on the left! |
| Professor Bot | I have a Fun Fact too! Did you know that the Washington Monument was damaged in an earthquake? Whoa. Did you feel that?! |
| I heard | "around the city in a boat," "along this road and "on the left." All of these are prepositions showing place. Let's watch for more places and prepositions! |
| Penelope | Look, Anna, we’re across from the White House! |
| Anna | Penelope, the only thing between us and the President is the street … and a park … and a security gate .... and police officers … with guns. |
| Boy | Excuse me, do you want to know a Fun Fact about the White House? |
| Anna & Penelope | Yes! |
| Boy | Inside the White House there is a swimming pool, a movie theater and 32 bathrooms! |
| Penelope | Thirty-two bathrooms! That’s a lot of bathrooms! |
| Boy | I’d be happy with two. I live in a house with my mom, four sisters, two aunts and only one bathroom! |
| Penelope | Oh my! You know, Anna, we should give him a tip! |
| Anna | Of course! It is polite to tip your tour guide! Luckily, I have lots of dollar bills! |
| Penelope | That was a great Fun Fact! Here you go! |
| Boy | Thank you! I can tell you Fun Facts all day! |
| Professor Bot | Did you hear any more prepositions of place? I heard "between us and the president" “inside the White House" and "in a house." |
| And did you hear that the Duck Boat can go on the river? I don't believe it. Join us next time to find out which preposition we will use. The boat went ON the river or The boat went INTO the river? |
