But now we get more excited because we have a quiz. Ah, I got to put on my glasses. What am I thinking? All right, I'm focused, ready to go. Question number one What does the man probably have inside his bag? A camera equipment and lenses.

B a laptop computer and milk. See extra clothes and a flashlight? D groceries and a birthday gift. Right What do you think? Let's hear the music. Okay, what does the man probably have inside his bag?

Well, a is the best answer camera equipment and lenses. All right, let's take a look at the word lenses to make sure we understand what it means. So if we look for camera lenses Okay, so camera lenses. There we go. So we're not talking about the camera on your iPhone or your Samsung phone. This is like a serious camera, right?

And you have all these different lenses, or whatever situation that you want telephoto lenses, zooming in just getting the perfect picture that you want. So these are camera lenses. Right. Okay, let's go back All right. Let's see. So let's take a look at the wrong answers.

A laptop computer. Let's possible and milk. Probably not so much. I would guess that he has maybe a bottle of water if anything, but he might not want his lenses to get wet, right? So he might not put definitely not milk, extra clothes and a flashlight. Well, that's possible, but because we can look at the picture and see what he's doing and holding in his hands, and a sounds better groceries and a birthday gift.

Well, that sounds nice, but probably not. If you bought groceries, he wouldn't bring them all the way out here. Okay, here we go. Question number two. There is a small, huh? of sky above the trees.

A batch B hatch c Or D latch. Hmm, what do you think? Okay, so here we go. There is a small patch of sky above the trees. So we talked about patch before. It's just a small section right?

Let's take a look at the wrong answers just so we can get a good idea of what they are. We all these answers rhyme, which means they sound like but they all have quite different meanings. So let's see a bad It's very common to say like a batch of cookies. So a batch of something is just like a group of something, right? a batch of cookies, something like that. Another one was a latch.

Latch is something that you use to keep a door closed, right? So okay, when you leave, remember to close the latch, something like that. And let's see we had hatch as well. I think hatch is just a brand name. Oh, I'm sorry. It can be a verb.

The egg will hatch. Hatch an egg. Right? So if an egg hatches, then we treat the chicken comes out or the bird comes out. So an egg hatches have already heard it to close the hatch. Uh huh.

Like a submarine. hatch. Here we go. There you go. So this is like a hatch, one kind of hatch. And it's watertight right?

So they close it, they turn the wheel and it's super tight so it doesn't let water in. So this can be a hatch. Okay, go back. Alright, so the answer is see there's a small patch of sky above the trees. Question number three. Ooh, two parts on this one.

The man is wearing a huh? Because it is outside. A mean jacket, spicy. B jean jacket, cool. C cool jacket warm. D creepy jacket fresh.

What do you think? Okay, so the man is wearing a jean jacket because it is cool outside. Alright, so we talked about the temperature that it's in the autumn it's fall. So the leaves are either off the trees or just brown leaves left. And it's cool outside so it's kind of cold and he's wearing a jean jacket. That's just the kind of jacket he's wearing right there.

All right, a mean jacket doesn't really make any sense and spicy. It's spicy outside. Spicy, we're going to be using for food. Lia Huda says what's the difference between cold and cool? Well, we're both taught they're both talking about temperature right? So cold if you tell me that you have cold water and then you tell me that you have cool water, I will understand that the the cold water has a lower temperature and the cool water is not quite as cold as the cold water.

Hmm, does that make sense? So if I say it's cool weather outside, it's not really cold yet, but it's not warm either. So cold is like a lower temperature cold means it is colder it's a it's going to be real cold. They're like who you probably need a thicker jacket. If it is cool weather out. Maybe you put on a sweater or a light jacket.

But yeah, so cool is like a higher temperature than cold. See Vera collagenous is cold is minus two minus three. Cool. That means plus 10 plus 11 plus 12. Sure it's possible, and it depends where you're from. Right?

So let's see some people that are from like a tropical country, they might come to my home where I'm from in Minnesota, like in Minnesota winter. And you'd say this is cold, right? You would not say this is cool. Say this is freezing cold. Right? And I've found usually that people that are from a colder temperature they can withstand, they can handle the cold weather much easier.

And when they go to hot temperatures, sometimes it's difficult, but right. Okay, so let's move forward. Here we are. Let's see a cool jacket warm. Oh, no. doesn't quite work.

Is it Cool outside. Here a cool jacket would mean like it's like yes, it's awesome. It's cool. It's a wonderful jacket. And we didn't say that it was warm outside. We said it was cool.

A creepy jacket which means kind of like a scary jacket or a weird jacket. Does it really make sense and fresh? Well, it might be fresh might be have a fresh smell in the air. But fresh will probably be more spring with new flowers, maybe in the summer. Veera color, Geena says I am from Russia. The winter is minus 30 minus 45.

Yes. All right. So let's go to question number four. The last news story Richard wrote was about a an ecstatic cat. Be a violent cat. See a Happy Cat.

Or D, a distressed cat. Hmm, what do you think? Okay, whoo. So the last news story Richard wrote about, Hmm, this question is a little more difficult. Okay. So here we go the answer.

The last news story Richard wrote about was a distressed cat. Hmm. Okay. So first what does the word distressed me? It means like upset, something's wrong, you're stressed out, you're frustrated. Maybe you're scared, maybe you're upset, something's wrong.

So if you remember from the story The last story that he wrote about was the cat that was stuck in a tree. Or they had to save a cat from a tree. So the cat might have been like a kitten or something. And it was up in the tree and it was scared to come down. So it was probably distressed. Right?

Let's take a look. We'll look at distressed in the dictionary to make sure that we know what it means and so that maybe there will be some synonyms. Okay, distressed, distressed. Okay, distressed means suffering from anxieties sorrow or pain. Hmm, could also be impoverished of furniture leather clothing, having simulated marks of aged where, okay, well, in our situation we're looking for anxiety, nervousness, stress, sorrow or pain. Okay, so we're talking about the cat right all the choices Are the cat in the last story he wrote about was the cat that was stuck in the tree.

Okay? versicolor Geena says, Yeah, I'm right. Whoo. Okay. All right, so an ecstatic cat just means a really happy cat. like super happy.

But that doesn't work. A violent cat. A cat that wants to hurt people or hurt things not and a Happy Cat. No, we were looking for a distressed cat because the cat was stuck in the tree and couldn't get out. All right. Question number five.

There we go. Why was Richard never seen or heard from again? A he was congratulated B he was abducted. See he was promoted. D he was depressed. What do you think?

Here we go. Okay, why was Richard never seen or heard from again? We have to pick the answer which works best in this situation and the answer is B he was abducted. Hmm. abducted is another word for kidnapped, right? And let's just make sure we all understand what abducted means.

All right, so it's the verb to have ducked. Okay? take someone away illegally by force or deception kidnap, right? So you force someone to go somewhere with against their will. And so abducted, right abducted is the only one that works. Because he was congratulated means that they're like, hey, way to go, congratulations wonderful, but that doesn't fit.

He was promoted. Well, that would mean that he was seen and heard from because if he was promoted, you would still be working and he got a higher position. So that doesn't work. And he was depressed well as possible, especially if you're kidnapped that would probably make you depressed or when you're abducted, but that's not the best answer. So the best answer we have here is he was abducted. Remember, the last thing you heard was the voice that said, What was it?

Don't move, buddy. Right gangster Mm hmm. Okay, so we just completed the quiz. Whoo wonderful. All right, let's review what did we cover in this lesson? Well, in this lesson we this was a let's describe lesson.

So we did the summary. We describe the setting describe the action, and we describe the story. And of course, we took the quiz and everything today was based on this picture, the photographer the reporter, the person coming out here to take pictures. Okay. All right. So that is it for this lesson.
