Remember, with Three Way English I will tell you a story three different ways.
8
27520
6270
00:33
First, in a very basic, simple way.
9
33790
3450
00:37
And then twice more with increasing difficulty.
10
37240
4040
00:41
The idea is to help you learn English grammar and vocabulary in context.
11
41280
6560
00:47
The first time through I will use simple present tense only.
12
47840
4590
00:52
I will use simple sentence structures and speak slowly with no contractions.
13
52430

00:59
Today s story is called The Pig s New Friend.
14
59429
6241
01:05
On a farm, a little Pig becomes friends with the local Dog.
15
65670
4850
01:10
They play together all day, chasing each other around happily.
16
70520
5120
01:15
But the Pig s mother notices that the Dog often scratches behind his ear.
17
75640
6540
01:22
She tells her son to be careful because the Dog has fleas.
18
82180
4910
01:27
The Pig agrees to be careful, but he does not expect to have any problems with fleas.
19
87090
8050
01:35
Then one day the little Pig and the Dog play together until nightfall.
20
95140
6420
01:41
Because the farmhouse door is locked, the Pig invites the Dog to sleep in the pigsty.
21
101560
6589
01:48
The Dog does so.
22
108149
1581
01:49
The next morning, the little Pig and his mother both wake up to find they have fleas.
23
109730
6220
01:55
But unlike the Dog, they are unable to scratch themselves, so the fleas bite at them terribly.
24
115950
7290
02:03
Okay, now let s do the story a second time through.
25
123240
5560
02:08
This time, I will introduce different verb tenses, such as the simple past.
26
128800
5640
02:14
I will use some different vocabulary and sentence structures, and I will speak a little faster
27
134440
7560
02:22
than the first time through.
28
142000
4690
02:26
In a farmyard a little Pig became friends with the local Dog.
29
146690
4700
02:31
They would play together all day, chasing each other around squealing and barking happily.
30
151390
6680
02:38
But the little Pig s mother noticed that the Dog often paused to scratch behind his ear.
31
158070
5960
02:44
So, she told her son to be careful when playing with the Dog because the Dog had fleas.
32
164030
7510
02:51
The little Pig agreed to be careful, but he ignored the warning because he didn t think
33
171540
5080
02:56
the fleas would ever become a problem.
34
176620
3450
03:00
Then one day the little Pig and the Dog played together until nightfall.
35
180070
5420
03:05
They came back home to find the farmhouse door was locked.
36
185490
3950
03:09
So, the little Pig invited his friend to spend the night in the pigsty.
37
189440
4960
03:14
The Dog agreed and they slept the night peacefully.
38
194400
3980
03:18
The next morning, the little Pig and his mother woke up to find themselves covered with fleas.
39
198380
5460
03:23
But unlike the Dog, they were unable to scratch at themselves.
40
203840
3950
03:27
All they could do was run through the farmyard squealing unhappily.
41
207790
5100
03:32
Now, you know the story.
42
212890
3360
03:36
So I m going to do it one more time this time at native level speed and with more advanced
43
216250
6570
03:42
vocabulary and sentence structures.
44
222820
5160
03:47
In a farmyard there was a little Pig who became friends with the local Dog.
45
227980
5200
03:53
All day long they would romp through the yard together, chasing each other around while
46
233180
4940
03:58
the Pig squealed with delight and Dog barked happily.
47
238120
4380
04:02
But the little Pig s mother noticed the Dog would often pause and scratch behind his ear.
48
242500
7700
04:10
So, she pulled her son aside and gave him a stern warning.
49
250200
4890
04:15
Be careful when playing with the Dog, because he has fleas, and they can easily find their
50
255090
6510
04:21
way onto you.
51
261600
3280
04:24
The little Pig agreed, but as he did so he thought to himself: I ve never noticed a flea
52
264880
6550
04:31
jumping onto me so far.
53
271430
2200
04:33
And besides, without any hair for them to hide in I can easily find them and wipe them
54
273630
5630
04:39
away.
55
279260
1000
04:40
Then one night, after the little Pig and his friend had been out playing in the woods,
56
280260
5340
04:45
the two friends noticed the sun going down.
57
285600
2690
04:48
When they reached their home, the Dog was surprised to discover the door to the farmhouse
58
288290
5530
04:53
was locked.
59
293820
1420
04:55
I suppose I shall have to sleep outside tonight, he said sadly.
60
295240
4080
04:59
No problem, the little Pig told him, you can sleep with my family tonight.
61
299320
5450
05:04
So that night the little Pig and the Dog nestled together in the pigsty.
62
304770
4890
05:09
The next morning, the little Pig and his mother woke up to find themselves covered with fleas.
63
309660
6940
05:16
But unlike the dog, they were unable to use their little legs to scratch themselves, so
64
316600
5380
05:21
they ran through the farmyard squealing miserably.
65
321980
6150
05:28
The moral of this story is If you lie down with dogs, you wake up with fleas.
66
328130
7080
05:35
The idea of this moral is that the people you hang out with will eventually influence
67
335210
5980
05:41
your own behavior.
68
341190
1120
05:42
So, if you hang out with bad people you will adopt some of their bad habits but if you
69
342310
5660
05:47
hang out with good people you should adopt some of their good habits.
70
347970
4390
05:52
If you lie down with dogs, you will catch the fleas that they have.
