______________________________________________________ http://www.elllo.org/english/1201/1237-Julia-Types.htm elllo freaks and animals intermediate Todd: So, Julia, let's talk about types of people.
Julia: OK.
Todd: Right, first one, are you a fitness freak?
Julia: A fitness freak? I'm fairly fit, but I'm not a freak. No, I'm not a fitness freak, no.
Todd: So you exercise but it's not like you do it all the time?
Julia: No, and I do some unhealthy stuff as well. I like to drink and I'm a former smoker and yes, no I'm not a fitness freak.
Todd: Right. I think a fitness freak is like somebody who does it, who exercises compulsively.
Julia: I indulge in bad stuff too, so no I'm not a fitness freak.
Todd: OK, so that leads us to the next question. Are you a party animal?
Julia: Not any more. I'm too old now.
Todd: When you were younger, you were a party animal?
Julia: I think, yeah, that was probably the type that I most fitted into.
Todd: Nice. I was never a party animal.
Julia: No?
Todd: No, I've always been pretty tame. I've always been pretty tame.
Julia: Yes, I was pretty wild when I was younger.
Todd: Really?
Julia: Yeah.
Todd: So you used to drink, smoke, stay up late?
Julia: Yeah. All that and more, yeah.
Todd: Come home in the wee hours of the morning?
Julia: Oh, yeah.
Todd: Oh, nice, that's cool. OK, next one would be do you know anybody in your family who's a couch potato?
Julia: Couch potato?
Todd: Because I know that you're not a couch potato.
Julia: I'm not a couch potato, no. My brother sometimes demonstrates couch potato traits.
Todd: Yeah.
Julia: He likes to play video games and stuff like that, and he'll spend a lot of time watching movies, and so he does spend a lot of time sedentary compared to me. He makes me look like a fitness freak, I guess, because he doesn't do so much exercise.
Todd: Right. And so for people listening a couch potato is somebody who watches a lot of TV and sits on the couch.
Julia: Spends a lot of time on the couch, yeah.
Todd: Well, how about the similar personality trait of the bookworm? Are you a bookworm?
Julia: A bookworm? No, but I think my husband's probably a bookworm.
Todd: Yeah?
Julia: He spends a lot of time reading books. He reads very fast, so he gets through a lot of books.
Todd: He's a speed reader?
Julia: Yeah, he's a very fast reader and he has to read. He has to have a book with him all the time. He cannot, a waiting room or on a train or any situation where you've just got to sit around, he cannot do it if he doesn't have a book.
Todd: Yeah. You know I live alone and that's a terrible trait that I have. I cannot sit and eat and just eat without something to occupy my attention. I have to read or I have to be like watching something on the computer, and if I go to a waiting room or anything like that or I'm on a plane I'm the same. I have to have something to read. It drives me nuts.
Julia: You see I can't read on transport because I get sick. It makes me sick, it makes me nauseous.
Todd: Like motion sickness?
Julia: Yeah. So I don't have a habit of reading on a train. A bus or a car, oh my God no, I can't read. No way, but my husband reads everywhere all the time.
Todd: That's cool.

I guess now it's time for me .....................
I feel it's time Got a picture of you............................ Got you're lipstick mark still on your coffee cup Got a fist of pure emotion Got a head of shattered dreams Gotta leave it, gotta leave it all ................now Whatever I said, whatever I did I didn't mean it I just want you ........................... Whenever I'm wrong just tell me the song and I'll sing it You'll be right and understood Unaware but underlined I figured out this story It wasn't good But in the corner of my mind I celebrated glory But that was not to be In the twist of separation you excelled at ............................ Can't you find a little room inside for me Whatever I said, whatever I did ................................... I just want you back for good Whenever I'm wrong just tell me the song and I'll sing it You'll be right and understood And we'll be together, this...................................... We'll be fighting and forever we will be So complete in our love We will never be uncovered again Whatever I said, whatever I did I didn't mean it I just want you back for good Whenever I'm wrong just tell me the song and .............................. You'll be right and understood ___________________________________________________________________ upper intermediate and advanced http://johnmaxwellteam.com/voice-2/ _______________________________________________________ advanced - friends http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZFskf5fQYgI |
