Trip To Washington - Mini-Story Lesson
Hello. Welcome to the mini-story lesson for the conversation “Trip To Washington.”
Let’s get started with the story.
* * * * *
Tom Cruise’s house has roaches. There are so many that it is out of hand.
He is now fed up. So he decides to go to Hawaii for one month. His Aunt Susanna lives in Hawaii
and Hawaii is really low key.
After he gets to Hawaii, he drives to his aunt’s house. He is psyched to see her and she is tickled
pink to see him.
On the first day he goes to the beach. He decides to learn how to surf. At first he cannot stand up
on the surfboard but soon he gets the hang of it.
Tom Cruise goes to the beach every day. He does not think about the roaches at his house. He is
able to completely let go.
After four weeks pass by, he realized that time flies when he is relaxing.
* * * * *
Okay, so that is our story. Now, as always, I will go back to the beginning of the story and I will read the
story and I will ask questions while I read the story. Please answer the questions out loud if you wish. If
you need a little more time then you can pause your player and then answer the question when you feel
like you’ve had enough time. Or if you just want to sit back and listen to the questions without answering,
that’s fine, too.
Okay, so here we go.
