Listen and read. Then say.

Stella: Hi, Helen. Have you bought any school supplies yet?

School is going to start in one week.

Helen: No, I haven’t bought any yet. I have been busy lately.

Stella: What have you done this week?

Helen: It’s been a tough week for me. I have washed all the laundry and taken care of Hansel too. He has been sick with the flu.

Stella: Helen: Stella: Helen:

Stella: Yes, I have. So far, I have bought a pencil case, a set of pencils, a set of erasable pens, some erasers, and some notebooks for each subject.

Helen: Have you bought a ruler?

Stella: No, not yet. I forgot about that. I need to get a calculator too.

4

I’m sorry to hear that! I hope he feels better soon.

Thanks. I hope so too. It’s no fun being sick.

You can say that again! Has he seen a doctor?

Yes, my mom took him to the doctor twice. All he needs is bed rest. Have you bought any school supplies?

Helen: I will likely go to the school supplies store tomorrow.

If you like, I could get you all the remaining supplies you need.

Stella: Terrific, thanks! I know I can always count on you! It will save me a trip to the school supplies store.

Helen: I’m glad to help. See you in school next week!

Some Unusual Celebrations Around the world, there are many festivals such as Christmas, Eid, and Carnival. Did you know that there are some unusual festivals that happen around the world? Lately, one that has become a popular tourist attraction is the Monkey Buffet Festival. In Lopburi, Thailand, so many monkeys have come to the town, that tourists have started to visit to see them. To encourage the monkeys to stay, the local businessmen have planned a terrific dinner once a year. The dinner is not for the people, though; it’s for the monkeys! A countless supply of fruits and other foods are put out on tables in an outdoor gathering area of the city, and the monkeys swarm in like bees!

In Japan, they have a festival called Konaki Sumo. It is based on the Japanese proverb “Crying babies grow fast.” Parents from all around the country bring their babies to see if they can get them to grow well!

How do they do that? No, they don’t spank them or do anything mean to them. They simply let them be held ... by a giant sumo wrestler! A clown stands by to keep the babies entertained, and the baby that starts crying first is the winner!

Is there a festival in your country or city that could be included in a list of the most unusual festivals?

Hasn’t Dora gone to the store? (.)

A town near where I live has celebrated an unusual festival for many years.

Gilroy, California, has been a farming town for over 100 years, and it has become well known for its garlic. To celebrate this, the town has begun a yearly garlic festival. Visitors from all over the state come to visit this otherwise unknown town to enjoy events such as a costume contest for the best-dressed garlic and strange tastes such as garlic ice cream. Those with a tough stomach can also try fresh garlic. Gilroy has now named itself “The Garlic Capital of the World,” partly thanks to the garlic festival. Maybe the town should also plan a mint festival to help with people’s breath after a week-long festival of garlic!
