Welcome English learners! Today we’re continuing the conversation between Jennifer and James. In the last episode, James had just met Jennifer while he was walking in the park. Her dog had fetched a ball and had come close to him. Jennifer was in the middle of telling him why she started dog sitting for her friend. Listen to the story in this episode to grow your vocabulary and listening skills. Enjoy!
“I was having coffee with my friend, Sarah, and we were talking about how difficult it is to live up to the standards of being a “modern woman.” Jennifer started her story.
“Oh, that sounds like an interesting conversation…” James responded. “I’ve always felt like it must be almost impossible for women to balance career and family. Especially single women.”
“Well, yeah, that’s what we were saying to each other. There’s a lot of pressure on women to be “independent,” as if they don’t need men in their lives. I think marriage and family are great and I hate the stigma that is sometimes given to housewives in our society.”
“That’s an interesting perspective to hear from a woman.” James replied. “You wouldn’t know that based on what you see in the media.”
“Exactly. Anyways, Sarah is married, so she and her husband are taking a trip this weekend. She works as an accountant, so she stays busy, but she wants to have kids, too. That’s why we were talking about “modern women.” Anyhow, I offered to watch their dog for the weekend, so here I am!” Jennifer explained.
“I see. That’s nice of you to do for her!” James appreciated this small act Jennifer was doing for her friend. He wanted to learn more about her, but she had a question for him.
“So, what brings you out to the park on a Saturday morning?” Jennifer inquired.
“I like to go for a walk when I’m thinking about something.” James told her.
“Ah, ok. So, can I ask what’s on your mind?” Sarah asked with an inquisitive look on her face. 
James was more than happy to tell her.

LECTURA COMPRENSIVA.


ESTE CUENTO NOS HABLA DEL TIEMPO LIBRE.


Antes de comenzar la lectura.


1. ¿Cuando tienes el tiempo libre normalmente que haces?



Presta atención a la lectura de tu profesor.


En vacaciones, el fin de semana o después del trabajo tienes tiempo libre para hacer ejercicio, llevar un pasatiempo o salir a divertirte.

Si eres deportista y te gusta el agua puedes nadar, si te gusta la nieve puedes esquiar. Si no dispones de mucho tiempo puedes correr o ir en bicicleta.

Hay quien prefiere quedarse en casa a ver la televisión, jugar videojuegos o navegar en Internet. Otras actividades para hacer dentro de casa cuando llueve o hace mucho frío son escuchar tu música favorita, leer un buen libro o aprender a tocar un instrumento. Puedes aprovechar tu tiempo libre para estudiar.

Si el tiempo es bueno, tal vez quieras ir de compras, salir con amigos a divertirse o pasar tiempo con la familia en algún lugar divertido para todos, como un parque de diversiones, el teatro o el cine. Aprovechar el tiempo libre es importante para tener una vida feliz.
