Engish Conversation - EARLY MORNING WALK

English Conversation--EARLY MORNING WALK
Improve English Speaking through everyday conversation
Learn English as Foreign Language-45 Tutorials
I have written a detailed book English conversation for all occasions, to learn English as Foreign Language.
This tutorial has been prepared from my well known book English conversation for all occasions, which I wrote for Indian students to improve everyday conversation..
English Conversation for All Occasions is a unique book of its kind, specially written to help Indian student. A quick look at the titles of the lessons would convince the reader that the book has been prepared by visualizing all types of situational conversations which may confront any man or woman in his daily activities. Whether one converses with his family members or moves about to mix in society, he will not feel tongue-tied for want of appropriate words or expressions. In a post office or barber’s shop, at a hotel or taxi stand, every person who has read this book, will be able to speak in English fluently and with confidence.
Good knowledge and satisfactory conversation drill is important in English speaking. This Tutorial would not only prove an asset to the reader in his daily life, but also on special occasions like interviews for jobs, etc. He would be able to face the interviewers with equanimity and confidence.
All the lessons have been designed in a programmed fashion. Word-meanings, Phrases and exercises have been added at the end of every lesson to help the students master the topics.
All the lesson should be read along, not once but many times, so that the conversation comes easy to the reader when he faces real life situations. The author would feel rewarded for his labours if the book helps men and women become social relations
This Tutorial should help all those readers who find difficulty in speaking fluent English. This will be completed in 45 lessons.

EARLY MORNING WALK


It is 5o’clock in the morning and Mr.Verma, is moving about in the house.Mrs.Verma Is that you, darling.

Mr.Verma yes dear. Good morning.
Mrs.Verma Good morning. What are you doing up so early?
Mr.Verma I am going out for a walk, you go to sleep for a while.
Mrs. Verma Can you find your clothes?
Mr.Verma Yes. Don’t worry. I had taken out my old pant and shirt and a walking stick last night. Thank you all the same.
Mr.Verma Leaves the house dressed for his early morning walk. A little way off he meets Mr.Bannerji.
Mr.Bannerji Oh, Good morning Mr.Verma. Are you out for some exercise?
Mr.Verma Good morning Mr.Bannerji. Yes, I thought it is good idea to get some fresh air early in the morning. May I join you on your walk?
Mr.Bannerji Do come along. It is nice to have some company. My wife comes along with me sometimes but she is quite irregular.
Mr.Verma My wife cannot get out of the house early in the morning. We have a large family and she has to prepare breakfast and lunch for the children and for me.
Mr.Bannerji Isn’t it a glorious day. So refreshing too.
Mr.Verma Yes. I feel much better after a small walk in the morning. I have to sit at a desk the whole day and a little exercise before going to work. It clears my head and puts vigous into my body.
Mr.Bannerji Some people prefer to take a walk in the evenings after dinner.
Mr.Verma I get fairly late coming back from office. Then I have my young son with his lessons in the evenings.
Mr.Bannerji My friend, Mr.Gurbachan, does some vigorous exercises in his bathroom before leaving for work.
Mr.Verma I am old to tire myself out with stiff exercise early in the morning.
A walk gives me an opportunity to breathe in deeply the pure and fresh morning air. In the office I hardly get any fresh air to breathe the whole day.
Mr.Bannerji These days, morning walks are getting to be very popular. Nearly all men come out for a brisk walk between five and six in the morning.
Mr.Verma I notice that it is the middle aged and older people who are out walking.
Mr.Bannerji Yes, it seems like that. The young executives go to parties so often that they can hardly get up in time to get to the office in time.
Mr.Verma Also perhaps they are at the prime of their youth and do not feel the strain like us older men.
Mr.Bannerji There is a young lad whom I see at 5o’clock every morning. He jogs for about two miles everymorning.
Mr.Verma He must be training for some athletics in his college or he must be a sportsman.
Mr.Bannerji Yoga is very much in fashion these days. People say that yoga is the best form of exercise, It helps to keep young and it does not tire out a person either.
Mr.Verma I understand that is true. The principle of Yoga is that the backbone is kept supple. But I am also told one has to be extremely careful about doing yoga exercises. I know of a man who sprained his neck doing yoga.
Mr.Bannerji I suppose at first one must get a proper teacher of yoga to demonstrate the correct way of doing exercises.
Mr.Verma Well, I must go home now and get ready for office. See you again tomorrow Mr.Bannerji.

(C) Study the following responses

1. Do you go out for an early morning walk?
Responses : No. I have to get to work by 8 o’clock and there is not enough time in the morning to go for a walk. My head is full of the business I have to do that day and I cannot waste my time walking. I walk miles a day during the course of my work.

2 . Then, do you think that it is waste of time to go for a morning walk?
Response : I didn’t say that. I personally don’t have the time for a morning walk nor do I feel the need for it. I guess for older people who have the time and for those who do not get enough exercise, it is all right for them.

3. How about women? Should they go for a walk?
Response: I don’t think one can make anything compulsory for anyone. Walking can never do anyone any harm, man or woman. So, if women feel the need to take walks, they are welcome to do so. Nor do I have any objection to women walking. They can walk or run or jog or do what ever else they like to do.
