Super English Course – Speak like a native

Willy got depressed because Angela didn’t love him. Because he learned that it was unrequited love. He loved her a lot, but she did not love him at all.

Two days later army officers came. Happily for Willy, I guess, army officers came two days later.

And so who came two days later?

Army officers did. Two days later army officers came. Willy was drafted into the army.

Who was drafted into the army? Angela the butterfly?

No, not Angela. Angela was not drafted into the army. It was Willy the worm who was drafted into the army.

Did Willy the worm join the army?

Yes, he did. He joined the army. He was drafted into the army. He became a soldier.

Was it good or was it bad for Willy to become a soldier?

It was very good for Willy.

Why was it very good for Willy?

It was very good for him, because in the army Willy the worm became strong and courageous. And of course, he learned how to stand up for himself.

What did the worm become in the army?

He became strong and courageous.

What did Willy learn in the army?

Can I say that the army changed Willy a lot?

Yes, of course. The army changed Willy a lot. He became strong and courageous. He learned how to stand up for himself. He was not that small, weak and shy Willy any more. He became William the worm.

When William the worm returned home, everybody was surprised by a new William, and Angela was surprised, too.

What was everybody surprised by when William returned home?

Everybody was surprised by a new William.

Was everybody surprised by a new or an old William?

What about the butterfly? Was Angela surprised by a new William?

Oh, yes. She was surprised, too. I’d say she was very much surprised by a new William.

Did Angela fall in love with William now?

I guess, she did. She didn’t tell that directly, but she fell in love with William. And William the worm fell in love with Angela again. And they lived happily ever after. The end, right?

No, that’s not right. It’s not the end. William the worm ignored Angela.

Ignored Angela the butterfly? That beautiful, gorgeous and rare butterfly?

Yes, he did. William ignored her. He refused to notice her. He got into University. He became a doctor. William the worm decided to devote himself to serving others.

And of course, you know what to do, right? I am sure, you do. Of course, you are going to listen and answer the questions. You may pause after each sentence and repeat it after me. Imitate me. Play this game one or two times a day. Pause, repeat it after me and imitate me. Enjoy the game! And if you do this, you will definitely change the way you speak English. I promise, you’ll start speaking English the way you never did before. You’ll speak English easily, confidently and automatically – like native speakers do.

Okay, I will see you next time.
