Friends,

Book three contains somewhat

different

reading material. There are extracts from books (world best sellers), film clippings, (scripts), stories etc.

I want you to use this material in a different way. Please go through the written text first and try to comprehend (I would say grasp) it. You may narrate these pieces to the members of your family (in English of course!!!) and in your friend circle too.

Everybody, nowadays goes to see English movies once in a while: But the dialogue delivery of the characters, the accents and the pronunciations are far from apprehension. Here is a solution. Go through the excerpt of a script (a part only) in written form in this book and then watch that movie on your video. You will get acquainted gradually with the style and English dialogue delivery. Same is the case with songs. For you the songs lyrics are made available in written form. After reading the lyrics it will be easier for you to understand these songs. Songs are available in the Go CD.

Them are some short stories to rekindle your soul and open your heart. You can remember them and use in your speech when needed.

Hope you will enjoy reading them.

Fluency Tips Part - I

Researches show that there are factors that block fluency and promote fluency. For proper and systematic training in fluency, one has to identify them. There are techniques based on such researches. How to master the words, adjectives, phrases, c;J~stersand combinations, is an art which can be learnt through dedicated efforts and regular practice. Use relevant words only. There are words we frequently come across and we think we are familiar with them. At the same time there are words that we don't come across so frequently but now and then only. We want to use them to impress others during conversation. We have to enter into arguments, debates, sometimes serious discussions, interviews negotiations at one point of time or other, These are the situations where our this ability is tested. Presentations are also necessary activities for professional and academicians. Even other participants and students in audience have to understand them. That is why a good command on the vocabulary is required to participate in such presentations. Again, there are words used in everyday situations, which communicate, traditionally accepted meaning. Forexamples : Enouqh is enough. • • • • • • Come what may. Forget it. Guess what III How do you do? Pleased to meet you. It was a pleasure (and so on).

My suggestion, try to list out such words you generally use most frequently and use them in your day to day conversations. Such sort of conscious effort and regular practice will help you in understanding the true spirit of these words. Later on synonyms and antonyms of such words will . automatically come in your practice.
.

English Guru .. GO

ADJECTIVES Use of adjectives is equally important for everyone trying to improve his spoken as well as written English. But use of proper adjectives is a problem. Here are some examples where we generally commit a mistake in using adjectives. Remember, mostly we commit mistakes in the u,se of English language because we tend to think in our mother tongue first and then we try to translate it verbatim (i.e. word oy word). Incorrect Adjective 1. 2.
3.

Correct Adjective friendly advice deep depression strong wind warm hospitality happy birthday strong tea oral contract powerful motor bike heavy cold heavy smoker Weak coffee mild fever

amicable advice heavy depression heavy wind hot hospitality merry birthday powerful tea spoken contract strong motor bike strong cold

4. 5.
6.

7. 8. 9.

10. strong smoker 11. mild coffee 12. Light fever

The combination of adjectives with nouns has been accepted on the basis of long use and frequent practice. This list should be used b)i paying focused attention on 5 to 7 adjective combinations everyday and deliberate use of them in your routine conversation.

Fluency Tips Part- II

Friends, As we have discussed In Fluency Tips Part - I, factors affecting flu-ency have to be dealt with care. Here are some more tips to help you improve your skill of communicating in English more fluently. COMBINATIONS One very important point for the learners of fluency in spoken English is, difference in well composed piece of written text and a live conversation. The vocabulary items are obviously different in both the situations i.e. while writing and while interacting or talking in a free atmosphere. This must be borne in mind. A researcher says a piece of writing is an object, you can see and touch. But speech isn't something you can see or touch, speech is simply a process, a series of actions mental and oral both. It is a happening, a transitory event. You should have a large number of readily built groups of words to express your ideas in a spontaneous discussions or interaction or even in giving dictations. Like • As a matter of fact. • • • Carry out an investigation. Make a contribution to. I have mixed feeling about this person.

• Take into consideration. • Trace the development of this project. • • Do all that is humbly possible. Please concentrate your attention on this topic.

• A few years back. One of strengths is his workaholic nature. Another important point is 'verb and noun' combination in speech: Generally, use of verb is more frequent in a live conversation. For example, in conversation "1think, the manager can handle the crises efficiently". While in writing it would come out to be as the manager had the efficiency of

English Guru - GO

handling the crises. At the same time short and simpie sentences are more useful in conversation instead of complex sentences. WORD CLUSTERS Individual words cannot help you speak and write good English. They are not independent units. Every word can convey the desired meaning in company or group of other suitable words only. Wit.'':out the support of other proper words, no single word can help you in communication of your ideas. So one more important tip for the learner is practice words in clusters.' Furthermore, in order to achieve the target of fluency in spoken English you have to start building your vocabulary. As we have already discussed in conversation, verbs play an important role. Verb is the soul and spirit of a clause or a sentence. A verb stands for the idea. A good command on word groups formed by verbs is a successful way of fluent conversations. PHRASES All the native English speakers have one thing in common. They all use word groups or clusters of words in speaking. Apart from collocations (i.e. word groups containing proper adjectives) idioms and combinations (of noun and verbs), phrases are used by all persons to communicate in English fluently. A sequence of words expressing an idea with clear meaning is called a phrase. For example • at lunch • by car • on TV etc.

If you have a good command over the word groups, you may not be required to compose new sentences every time you speak. They will automatically flow from YOUi mouth as readily assembled or composed. Simultaneously use of idiomatic English is also an effective.way to use English fluently. Idiomatic English means English that contains natural expressions used by native speakers of English. Idiom is a group of words with a particular and specific meaning. Below are a few examples of commonly used idioms• Absent without leave • Almost every person • Any body else • An area of expertise • Left to bleed to death.-----· .. • Acquire a taste • The answer is no. • An area for improvement • An area of interest • On the spur of the moment

• A well balanced diet etc.

Barriers in Fluency
Do you speak to express your ideas and feelings? Perhaps not. You speak to build sentence grammatically. Written English is your concern and not the idea itself. The only thing to remember is speak idea wise, not sentence wise. Loud reading is necessary for practicing fluency. Repeated practice will train your brain and your will unknowingly start speaking these sentences to express' your ideas Classics of English literature are not so helpful in learning conversational' and everyday English. Ordinary novels are really useful. Jokes, romantic stories, comics are really good for beginners. Books by Erie Staneley Grandner, James Hadley Chase, may expose you to modern English used now There is a funny incident narrated by one of the persons who went to England for the first time. When he came back he told the children of the family. "Do you know, even a child of 4 years speaks English fluently
in United Kingdom."

Learners, for whom English is a foreign language, always hesitate in expressing themselves in English. The reason is, they did not have the opportunity to learn English as mother tongue or as first language in natural way. They started learning English through written form only. Does a child learn his or her mother tongue like that?
Units or pieces of ideas

"He unlocked the front door and he went in and he said I will be back in a minute and he went upstairs so I remained in the hall." A child in his native language if it is English will always speak like: • Give it to me • • I don't want it pick me up

The child did not learn these sentences word by word. So is the case with you when you speak in your mother tongue. Natural speech comes out in "word groups" ideas wise; in ready to assemble units in live conversation you need nut tell context in words.

In speech

you say:

I like him, hardworking, polite always careful.

You don't saY1 l like him because he is hardworkinq. He is polite and careful

also. (as we do in written form.)

Should we speak in sentences?

------..._ NO

The chief reason is

Firstly, Spontaneous speech is delivered in a different atmosphere

So it

can not be so planned arid fabricated.

Secondly,

You can't use long, complex sentences in oral speech.

Friends, Who does not like watching English movies? But sometimes we realize that it gets very hard for people like us, for whom English is a second language to follow the film in its entirety. The biggest problem that we encounter in such situations is understanding the accent. In this exercise, we have picked few popular English films and given you the dialogues from an extract of the movie. We would encourage you to rent these videos and watch them. With the written script in your hand for the scene, it will become way more easy for you to get a better understanding of the accent. After tallying one such extract, you will start noticing the pronunciations of words and vowels in different types of English accents and making it possible for you to view the movie with as much ease as you watch other common language movies.

Rose Lovett

You actually believe this is you, grandma? It is me, dear. Wasn't I a hot number?

I tracked it down through insurance records. An old claim that was settled under terms of absolute secrecy. Do you know who the claimant was.Rose?

Rose Lovett

Someone named Hockley, I should imagine. Nathan Hockley, right. Pittsburgh steel tycoon. For a

diamond necklace his son Caledon Hockley bought in from France for his fiancee. You, a week before he sailed on Titanic. And the claim was filed right after the sinking. So the diamond had to have gone down with the ship. See the . date?

Rose Lovett

You may give me this, if anything I tell you is of value. Deal. Over here are a few things we've recovered from your staterooms.

Rose

This was mine. How extraordinary! It looks the same as the last time I saw it. The reflection has changed a bit. My mother's brooch. She wanted to go back for it. Caused quite a fuss.

Lovett Bodine

Are you ready to go back to Titanic? Live from 12,000 feet.

Rose stares raptly at the screens. She is enihteled by one in particular, an image of the bow railing. It obviously means something to her. Brock is studying her reactions carefully. Bodine The bow's struck in the bottom like an axe, from the impact. Here ... I can run a simulation we worked up on this monitor over here. (Lizzy turns the chair so Rose can see the screen of Bodine's computer. As he is caffing up the file, he keeps talking.) We've put together the world's largest database on the Titanic. Okay, here .. Rose might not want to see this, Lewis. No, no. It's fine. I'm curious. She hits the berg on the starboard side and it sort of bumps along ... punching holes like a morse code ... dit dit dit, down the side. Now she's flooding in the forward compartments ... and the water spills over the tops of the bulkheads, going aft. As her bow is going down, her stern is coming up ... slow at first. .. and then faster and faster until it's lifting all that weight, maybe 20 or 30 thousand tons ... out of the water and the hull can't deal. .. so SKRTTTll ... it splits! Right down to the keel, which acts like a big hinge. Now the bow swings down and the stern falls back level, .. but the weight of the bow pulls the stern up vertical, and then the bow section detaches, heading for-the bottom. The stern bobs like a cork, floods and goes under about 2:20 a.rn. Two hours and forty minutes after the collision.

Bodine

The bow pulls out of its dive and planes away, almost a half a mile, before it hits the bottom going maybe 12 miles an hour. KABOOM! The stern implodes as it sinks, from the pressure, and rips apart from the force of the current as it falls, landing like a big pile of junk. Cool huh?

Rose

Thank you for that fine forensic analysis, Mr. Bodine. Of course the experience of it was somewhat less clinical. Will you share it with us?

The first conversation is a telephonic dialogue between a brother and sister, Parveen and Parvez. Parveen is startled by Parvez's call very early in the morning. Read aloud and try to follow the rest of the conversation. The language used in the dialogues below is mostly easy and informal, everyday English. You can even try to include few of these lines in your conversations with friends or family members, it will help you learn them faster as well. Conversation 1

Parveen was awakened by the ring of the telephone. Without opening her eyes, she reached out for it and put the receiver to her ear. 'Hello?' 'Parveen? It's Parvez.s' She sat up, her heart suddenly pounding. Parvez, are you all right?' She heard him laugh. 'Never better, sis. Thanks to you and your friend. ' 'My friend?'
'Mr. Jahangir'

'Who?' Parveen tried to concentrate, groggy with sleep. 'Mr Jahangir. He really saved my life.
t

Parveen had no idea what he was talking about. 'Parvez ... 'You know the fellows lowed money to? Mr. Rbstien he's a rea! gentleman.' Parveen was nervous. Parvez, listen to me I want you to be careful.' She heard him laugh again.

'Don't worry about me. Didn't I telf you every thing would be coming up roses? Well. f was right, Take care of yourself, Parvez. Don't-' The connection was broken.

Parveen was unable to go back to sleep. Jahanqirl How did he find out about Parvez, and why is he heiping, him?

Conversation 2

The second conversation is a scene of the parents with their daughter at their house. The little girl in this scene is trying to raise her voice against her dad who wants to slaughter the pet pig in the hous e for meat. Notice how the defiance of the little girl is more subtle and indirect rather than rude. We hope you enjoy the dialogue. Fiza Mrs. Oadeer : Fiza Mrs. Qadeer: Where's Papa going with that ax? Out to the hog house. Some pigs were born last night. I don't see why he needs an ax. Well, one of the pigs is a runt. It's very small and weak, and it will never amount to anything. So your father has decided to do away with it. Do away with it? You mean kill it? Just because it's smaller than the others? Don't yell, Fiza! Your father is right. The pig would probably die anyway. Please don't kill it! it's unfair. Fiza, you have to learn to control yourself. Control myself? This is a matter of life and death, and you talk about controlling myself. Fiza, I know a lot more about raising a litter of pigs .than you do. A weakling makes trouble. Now run along! But it's unfair. The pig couldn't help being born small, could it? if i had been born very smaf at birth, would you have killed me? Certainly not. But this is different. A little giri is one thing. A little runty pig is another. ! see no difference. This is the most terrible case of injustice I ever heard of. AI! right. I'll let you start it on a' bottle, like a baby. Then you'll see what trouble a pig can be.

In as much as I have to pay the interest tomorrow on a loan from the Agrarian Bank, I should like to request, madam, that you pay me the money today.

MRS. SAJID: Twelve-hundred and for what was my husband indebted to you? REHfvlAN MRS. SAJID: MRS. SAJID: He bought oats from me. Don't forget to give Sohan an extra measure of oats. If my husband is indebted to you, I shall, of course, pay you, but! am sorry, I haven't the money today. Tomorrow my manager will return from the city and I shall notify him to pay you what is due you, but until then I cannot satisfy your request. Furthermore, today is just seven months since the death of my husband, and I am not in the mood to discuss money matters. And I am in the mood to fly up the chimney with my feet in the air if I can't lay hands on that interest tomorrow. They'll seize my estate!

The toll-gatherer just now met me in the road and asked why I was always worrying. Why, in Heaven's name, shouldn't I worry? I need money, I feel the knife at my thoat. Yesterday morning I left my house in the early dawn and called on all my debtors. If even one of them had paid his debt! I worked the skin off my fingers! The devil knows in what sort of Jew-inn I slept; in a room with a barrel of brandy! And now at last I come here, seventy versts from home, hope for a little money, and all you give me is moods!

' 'So you have no recollection of ever having met Abdul Haque, you had no motive for killing Danish Chara or for killing Deputy Somesh Rana, who was at your apartment to protect you?' 'That's right.' His eyes swept over the crowded court-room, and he felt a sense of panic. One last question Sami said. 'Have you ever been in trouble with the law?' 'Never.' Sami put a hand on his.

Stopping By Woods On A Snowy Evening By Robert Frost

Whose woods these are I think I know. His house is in the village, though; He will not see me stopping here To watch his woods fill up with snow.

My little horse must think it's queer To stop without a farmhouse near Between the woods and frozen lake The darkest evening of the year He gives his harness bells a shake To ask if there's some mistake. The only other sound's the sweep Of easy wind and downy flake.

The woods are lovely, dark, and deep, But I have promises to keep, And miles to go before I sleep, And miles to go before I sleep.

Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high Where knowledge is free Where the world has not been broken up into fragments By narrow domestic walls Where words come out from the depth of truth Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way Into the dreary desert sand of dead habit Where the mind is led forward by thee Into ever-widening thought and action Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake

Footprints in the Sand

By Mary Stevenson One night a man had a dream. He dreamed he was walking along the beach with the LORD. Across the sky flashed scenes from his life. For each scene he noticed two sets of footprints in the sand: one belonging to him, and the other to the LORD.

When the last scene of his life flashed before him; he looked back at the footprints in the sand, He noticed that many times along the path of his life there was only one set of footprints.

He also noticed that it happened at the very lowest and saddest times in his life. This really bothered him and he questioned the LORD about it:
!

i ~

lI

"LORD, you said that once I decided to follow you, you'd walk with me all the way. But I have noticed that during the most troublesome times in my life, there is only one set of footprints. I don't understand why when I needed you most you would leave me."

I
i

The LORD replied: "My son, my precious child, I love you and lwould never leave you. During your times of trial and suffering, when you see only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried you."

Friends, Short stories are amongst the easiest literature in English to get hold of. Undersized, precise but never compromising on its literate value. They are good to start with if you have never read a longer text like novelor any other fiction or non-fiction book before. Although a short story forms its own genre, they are often written in many moods. Unlike a novel, a short story does not carry multiple dispositions to itself; a short story always revolves one central idea or feel to it. In this section of the book we will look at three short stories written in varied moods and will try to analyze the .central idea behind them.

All I Really Needed to Know I learned at Kindergarten

'All I Really Needed to Know' is a beautiful piece of writing which contains a description of the things we learn at kindergarten or nursery school. It bears a comparison of these simple things that we learn then and how these are ultimately the things that matter to us adults. Story Most of what I really need to know about how to live and what to do and how to be, I learned in kindergarten. Wisdom was not at the top of the graduate mountain, but there in the sandbox at nursery school. These are the things I learned: Share everything. Play fair. Don't hit people. Put things back where you found them. Clean up your own mess. Don't take things that aren't yours. Say you're sorry when you hurt somebody. Wash your hands before you eat. Flush. Warm cookies and cold milk are good for you. Live a balanced life. Learn some and think some and draw and paint and sing and dance and play and work every day some. Take a nap every afternoon. When you go out into the world, watch for traffic, hold hands and stick together. Be aware of wonder. Remember the little seed in the plastic cup. The roots go down and the plant goes up and . nobody really knows how or why, but we are all like that. Goldfish and hamsters and white mice and even the little seed in the plastic cup - they all die. So do we. And then remember the book about Dick and Jane and the first word you learned, the biggest word of all: LOOK. Everything you need to know is in there some-where. The Golden Rule and love and basic sanitation. Ecology and politics and sane living. Think of what a better world it would be if we all - the whole world - had cookies and milk about 3 o'clock every afternoon and then lay down with our blankets for a nap. Or if we had a basic policy in our nations to always put things back where. we found them and cleaned up our own messes. And it is still true, no matter how old you are, when you go out into the world, it is better to hold hands and stick together.

Are you God?"

The next story is a very emotional yet simple story. The main idea to this story is motivational. The story talks about a little encounter between a little child and woman in a busy marketplace of a town. Read the story aloud, and see if you can explain the gist of the story in your own words.

Story One cold evening during the holiday seasons a little boy about six or seven was standing out in front of a store window. The little child had no shoes and his clothes were mere rags. A young woman passing by saw the little boy and could read the longing in his pale blue eyes. She took the child by the hand and led him into the store. There she bought him some new shoes and a complete suit of warm clothing. They came back outside into the street and the woman said to the child, "Now you can go home and have a very happy holiday". The little boy looked up at her and asked, "Are you God, Madam?" She smiled down at him and replied, "No, son I am just one of his children." The little boy then said, "I knew it, you had to be in some relation to him."

But the Truth

The following account is a short and humorous real life story narrated by a journalist. Go on to read the account and notice the narrative's entertainment style and subtle humor.

Story David Castevens of the Oaflas Morning News tells a story about Frank Szymanski, of Notre Dame center in the 1940s, who had been called as a witness in a civil suit at South Bend. "Are you on the Notre Dame football team this year?" the judge asked. "Yes, Your Honor." "What position?" "Center, Your Honor." "How good a center?" Szymanski squirmed in his seat, but said firmly: "Sir, I'm the best center . Notre Dame has ever had." Coach Frank Leahy, whowas in the courtroom, was surprised. Szymanski always had been modest and unassuming. So when the proceedings were over, he took Szymanski aside and asked why he had made such a statement. Szymanski blushed. "I hated to do it, Coach," he said. "But, after all, I was under oath."

Funny Incident

Our life is full of various events but some incidents playa special part in life's experiences. When such Incidents come to our recollection, it makes us happy and cheerful. You might have felt the need in the past to describe your personal events such as these to your friends but could have kept the urge inside you for the fear of messing up in the recitation or description in English This section will assist you in doing so. Here we are providing you the description of one such real life incident. This took place with a person who has been working for quite a long shift at his job and has been given to carry out one last task for the day.

Read the incident below paying attention to the style of narration of the speaker while describing the incident. About six month ago I used to drive a taxi atweekends and I worked 13 to 16 hou rs a day for some extra cash. Once after a 16 hours shift, I called my controller on the radio and told him I am going home. It was early in the morning and there was no driver at the base therefore my controller told me to stay another 30 minutes. After 15 minutes my controller passed me a job on radio, before accepting the job I asked my controller 'is it local job?' he replied 'yes'. I went and knocked the door of given address and two people carne out with big suitcases. When I saw their suitcases I became bit suspicious that this job is not local they are going to the airport. I asked them 'where are you going sir?' they replied 'Heathrow airport' (it was about 2 hours journey). ! was tired and feeling sleepy and when I heard that job is going to heathrow I felt even more tired. Anyway now I wasn't able to refuse the job so I put the passangers suitcases quickly and angrily in my car's trunk and drove towards heathrow airport. I switched off my radio to avoid the controller fully aware that it was not allowed to keep your mobile phone on while working.

I was on my way to the airport and when I reached near the airport I asked my passengers 'which terminal you are going sir' (there are four terminals in heathrow airport) in return there was no reply. Again I asked 'which terminal you going sir' again no reply, third time whi!e repeating my question I turned my head toward passengers seat. I was shocked, there were no passengers in my car and I realized that in haste I forgot to board the passengers. I only loaded their luggage and left. Similarly, try to recite your personaliy witnessed incidents in a similar fashion using the above stated description as a guide.
