Changalu  Ep# 02

JENNIFER: It’s freezing outside! What happened to the 
weather report? I thought this cold front was 
supposed to pass.
GABRIELA: Yeah, I thought so too. That’s what I read online
this morning.
JENNIFER: I guess the wind chill is really driving down
the temperature.
GABRIELA: Can we go inside? I feel like my toes are starting to 
go numb.




LANGUAGE NOTES
• A “cold front” means a large mass of cold air. It can be plural: There were multiple cold 
fronts this January. 
• Here “supposed to” refers to something that is intended or expected to happen: I 
thought it was supposed to rain today. This phrase can be used for many situations: I 
thought the train was supposed to arrive at 9:00 a.m. sharp.
• Yeah / Yup / Uh huh are informal conversational cues used by native speakers in 
conversation. Each of these responses could be used here for “yes.” Gabriela affirms 
what Jennifer is saying. The most polite way to affirm a response is to say “yes.”
• Listen for the emphasis on “That’s what I read online this morning.” This useful 
phrase can be used with other verbs to convey information: That’s what I heard on the 
radio. / That’s what I saw on TV. / That’s what I read online.
• Chill / freezing / cold: These words describe cold weather. I feel the wind chill. / I feel 
the chill. / I am freezing. / I am cold.
• Wind chill is the effect of the wind making the temperature feel colder on a person’s 
skin. This is an uncountable noun. The temperature is 4 degrees, but with the wind chill 
it feels like -8. These phrases are used in weather reports as well.
• The phrase “driving down” means “forcing to be lower” and can be used in many 
situations. An oversupply of new houses is driving down sales prices in the area.

Day 9 : Weather

⏳ El Reloj del Tiempo Perdido 🕰️

Lucas siempre fue un apasionado de los objetos antiguos. Un día, mientras exploraba una vieja tienda de antigüedades, encontró un reloj de bolsillo dorado con una inscripción que decía: "Gira y el tiempo te seguirá". Intrigado, lo compró y, al llegar a casa, giró la pequeña perilla sin pensar demasiado. De repente, el aire a su alrededor cambió, y la habitación desapareció. Al abrir los ojos, se encontró en una calle empedrada donde las personas vestían ropas de hace siglos. Había viajado al año 1823.

Confuso pero emocionado, Lucas caminó por la ciudad, maravillado por la vida en el pasado. Pero pronto se dio cuenta de algo inquietante: las personas lo miraban con desconfianza, y un hombre con un abrigo largo lo seguía a todas partes. Asustado, intentó girar la perilla del reloj para volver a su tiempo, pero no funcionó. De repente, el hombre lo alcanzó y le susurró: "Ese reloj no te pertenece, joven viajero. Cada segundo que pasas aquí, el tiempo te reclama más".

Lucas, temblando, corrió hacia el puente principal. El reloj vibraba y parecía calentarse. Con todas sus fuerzas, giró la perilla una vez más. El suelo tembló y todo se desvaneció. Al abrir los ojos, estaba de vuelta en su habitación. Pero había un detalle que lo dejó helado: el calendario en su escritorio marcaba el año 2057.
