Читать книгу Super English Course – Speak like a native - Alexander Chumakov - Страница 4

Hello, my superstar English student. This is Alex. Welcome to our first story “A Dog and a Lion”. But first you’re going to focus on your physiology, on your body. You’re going to focus on mastering your body, using your body to change your emotions. Using your body to change the energy that you feel and therefore using your body to learn English much, much faster. Are you ready? Let’s begin.

Once upon a time there was a dog who went for a walk in a forest in Africa. And a lion saw the dog. And the lion thought: “That dog will make a good dinner.” But the dog was a mind-reader. He read the lion’s mind.

And the dog thought, “How can a dog escape from a lion? It’s very difficult. They are very big, very strong, and very fast.” But that dog was a very smart dog.

So what do you think he did? He managed to find some bones. And he sat in front of the bones with his back towards the lion, totally unafraid. And as the lion was about to pounce, the dog licked his lips and said: “Mm, what a delicious meal! These local lions are very, very, very tasty! I wonder when I can get my next lion to eat.”

And the lion heard that and he said, “Oh, my goodness! That must be a really vicious dog. He’s eaten another lion and I am not going to be his dinner.”

And so the lion turned around and ran away.

But there was a monkey there. And that monkey saw that conversation. And he said, “I am not going that dog to get away with tricking this lion”. And he ran to that lion and said, “You’ve been tricked. You are a fool. This dog can’t eat lions. He has just set it to scare you away!”

And so the lion got very upset and he got wild. The lion was going to eat that dog. And the monkey said: “I can’t wait to come with you to watch.”

So the monkey jumped on the lion’s back and the lion went straight towards the dog.

And the dog saw them coming. So he sat in front of the bones again with his back towards that lion and the monkey on his back. And as they came close, the dog licked his lips again and said: “Where is that damn monkey? He promised to bring me another lion.”

This is the end of our lesson for “A Dog and a Lion”. Alright, and remember, of course, keep your psychology strong. I hope you’re smiling right now. I hope those shoulders are back. Chin up. Lots of energy. Don’t forget that every single lesson you do, you must be smiling. You must be moving. You must have that energy in your body. That’s how you’re going to learn English much, much faster. Okay, I will see you next time.
