Friday's Workshop

<<Transcript Summary>>

**Introduction:**

- **Y** Now I'm ready. First question: outgoing.

- **N** Outgoing, right?

**Topic: Outgoing**

- **N** My wife was very outgoing and had many friends, unlike me. She often greeted 

    people, and I would always ask her who they were.

- **Y:** Oh, okay. So your wife was really outgoing.

- ** N** Yes, that's right.

**Topic: Shy**

- **Y** Next question: shy. What comes to your mind when you hear shy?

- **A:** Japanese people are often shy. When I was in America, people were very friendly, 

   which confused me because Japanese people tend not to talk to strangers.

**Topic: Act in a Play**

- **Y** Next, act in a play.

- **N** I used to be a teacher and wrote scripts for school plays. It was fun, but I'm not sure if the students enjoyed it.

**Topic: Drive a Car**

- **Y:** Next topic: drive a car.

- **A** I recently renewed my driver's license. My eyesight is getting worse, so I need glasses to drive. However, I often drive without them, which isn't good.

**Topic: Play Golf**

- **N** I tried playing golf because my friend loves it, but I gave up after hitting the ground instead of the ball. I decided golf is not for me.

**Topic: Speak More Languages**

- **Y** Next, speak more languages.

- **A** I used to work at a bank where my boss spoke French and English. I admire people 

   who speak multiple languages.

**Topic: Visit London**

- **N** I have been to London twice. My wife loved it there. We enjoyed fish and chips every 

   day. I'd like to visit again.

**Topic: Run a Marathon**

- **A** In junior high, I was good at running because I was very skinny. Recently, I haven't     been able to run much due to the heat and rain.

**Topic: Fly a Helicopter**

- **N** I haven't flown in a helicopter yet, but I'd like to try it someday, especially at night to see the city lights and fireworks. My grandson loves toy helicopters.

**Topic: Clean a Desk**

- **A** When I worked at a bank, my junior colleague always had a messy desk, which made me angry. Despite training, he didn't change his behavior.

**Topic: Wash Hands**

- **Y** During COVID-19, washing hands became very important. My daughter always reminds me to wash my hands when I visit her to see my grandson.

**Topic: Watch a Movie**

- **A** Recently, I haven't watched many movies, but I saw "Yesterday," the one about The       Beatles. I enjoyed it.

**Topic: Studious**

- **N** I study English every morning for one or two hours. I want to pass an English test and      be fluent in English. It's my goal for this year.

**Topic: Cheerful**

- **A** My friend is very cheerful and positive, even though she is struggling with health 

   issues. She always encourages others.

**Conclusion:**

- **Y** We covered many topics today. I'll send you the link and summary for your reference. 

     Have a great day!

- **N& A** Thank you. Bye.
