[00:38.90]Listen to this conversation  betwwn two people.

[00:45.37]one who is calm and one who is nervous ...very vervous.

[00:52.53]Please,Jane.Tell me your secret!My secret?What secret?

[00:59.90]Jack 1,what are you talking about?

[01:04.34]Tell me why you're always calm.

[01:08.49]I'm never calm.But someday I hope to be as calm as you are.

[01:15.05]As calm as I am?Oh,Jack,I'm not as calm as a lot of people.

[01:22.49]And something I get very nervous.

[01:27.56]You nervous?Well,you're not as nervous as I am now.

[01:33.41]And you're nerver as nerwous as I am.all the time.

[01:39.08]Oh,Jack,Really!Now say if these sentences are true or false.

[01:49.35]If the sentence is false.give the correct answer.

[01:54.91]Jack thinks Jane is very nervous.

[01:59.95]False.Jack thinks Jane is very calm.

[02:08.31]Someday he hopes to be as calm as she is.

[02:56.20]He says Jane is never as nervous as he is.all the time.True.

[03:05.76]Now do you remember the difference between the question word whose

[03:12.81]spelled w-h-o-s-e and the quetion word who's spelled w-h-o apostrophe s?

[03:28.98]They both have the same pronunciation,

[03:34.75]whose---who's but the spelling is different.

[03:41.70]Also,w-h-o-s-e is used in front of a noun,like whose book or whose initials 2.

[03:55.78]w-h-o apostrophe s means "who is"Who's the boss?means"who is the boss?"

[04:08.45]Now you're going to hear some.sentences which start with either

[04:14.41] w-h-o-s-e or w-h-o  apostrophe s.

[04:24.44]After each question,spell the question word.

[04:30.71]Then you will hear the correct spelling.

[04:34.96]For example you hear,Who's the reporter in Murder at Midnight?

[04:44.63]And you say:W-h-o apostrophe s.

[04:52.08]Then you will hear the correct spelling:

[04:57.53]w-h-o apostrophe s.

[05:03.10]Ready?Let's begin.Who's the reporter in:Murder at Midnight?

[05:12.76]W-h-o apostrophe s.

[05:17.62]whose baby is six months old?w-h-o-s-e

[05:27.26]whose apartment is on Eighth Street?W-h-o-s-e

[05:36.90]who's the star of Murder at Midnight?W-h-o apostrophe s.

[05:47.53]Who's going to Stamford tomorrow?W-h-o  apostrophe  s.

[05:57.41]whose hair is very short?w-h-o-s-e

[06:06.05]Did you notice that when you say some sentences,

[06:11.20]your voice goes down at the end?

[06:15.75]This is called "falling intonation 3."

[06:21.99]For example at the end of a statement:Maybe he went home.

[06:30.03]Or at the end of a question that you can't  answer with only"Yes.or NO

[06:37.90]Whose is it?But when you can answer a question with "Yes or No"

[06:45.76]the voice goes up at the end.This is called rising intonation."For example

[07:04.15]Imitate the voice you hear.

[07:08.70]If it goes up at the end make your voice go up.

[08:26.23]I don't think so.He's very young.And very nervous.

[08:33.67]He needs more reassurance 6 from you older actors.

[08:39.55]Rita!Jeff and I are almost the same age.

[08:45.79]Do I look like I should be in a museum?

[08:51.15]Now listen to this dialogue again.

[08:55.41]After each phrase,there's going to be a pause.

[09:01.36]During the pause,say"Rising"if the voice you heard went up.

[09:09.72]But if the voice you heard went down say "Falling"

[09:16.17]For example,you hear:Tell me something.Mary Beth.

[10:59.96]This time repeat what you hear.

[11:04.40]Follow the intonation of the speaker's voice,either up or down,Ready?Begin.
