This is ESLPod.com's "A Day in the Life of Lucy," episode three: Eating
Breakfast.
I'm your host, Dr. Jeff McQuillan, coming to you from the Center for Educational
Development in beautiful Los Angeles, California. In episode two of "A Day in
the Life of Lucy," Lucy cleaned up and put on make-up. In this episode, she gets
to eat breakfast. Let's get started.
[Start of story]
In the kitchen, the first thing I do is pour myself a cup of coffee and I add a little
skim milk and sugar. My roommate usually makes a pot when she wakes up for
both of us since she gets up first.
I go the fridge to take out the eggs. When I have time, I like to cook a hot
breakfast, so I take out the frying pan, pour a little oil in it, and turn on the front
burner on the stovetop. While the eggs are cooking, I put two pieces of bread
into the toaster. When the eggs are nice and brown on the edges, I use a
spatula to put them on a plate. Some mornings, I have to settle for some cold
cereal or just toast with jam, but it’s nice to start the day with a sit-down meal
when I get the chance.
When I’m done, I take my plate and my silverware to the sink, where my
roommate has left her breakfast dishes. Since she makes the coffee in the
morning, I wash the dishes. It’s a pretty good arrangement. I put a little
dishwashing detergent on the sponge, scrub the dishes, and leave them in the
drying rack to dry.
[End of story]
In this episode, Lucy eats breakfast. She begins her story by saying that "In the
kitchen, the first thing" she does is to pour herself "a cup of coffee." The first
thing she does is pour herself a cup of coffee. To pour, "pour," means to take
liquid from one container, such as a bottle or a coffee pot, and put it into another
container, such as a cup.
So, she pours herself "a cup of coffee" and adds "a little skim milk and sugar."
Coffee, "coffee," is a dark brown drink that you can use to wake up in the
morning. Most coffee, or regular coffee, has a certain drug called caffeine,
"caffeine," and the caffeine helps people wake up. If you don't want the caffeine,
you can decaf coffee, "decaf." Decaf is short for decaffeinated, meaning it
doesn't have caffeine.
But, Lucy needs to wake up so she has a cup of regular coffee, and she puts in
her coffee "a little skim milk and sugar." Skim, "skim," milk is milk that doesn't
have any fat in it. You can have regular milk, two percent milk with two percent
fat, one percent milk, and skim milk with no fat. She also puts in sugar, "sugar."
Sugar is normally white; it has a sweet taste that it adds to food.
Lucy's "roommate usually makes a pot when she wakes up," meaning she makes
a pot of coffee. A pot, "pot," is what the coffee is put in. It's like a jug or a bottle;
it's like a container for the coffee. The reason the roommate makes the pot of
coffee is because "she gets up first."
Lucy goes to "the fridge" and takes "out the eggs." The fridge, "fridge," is short
for refrigerator. A refrigerator is where you put your food so it stays cold. To
keep it cold, you put it in a refrigerator. If you want it to be frozen, like ice, then
you put your food in a freezer, "freezer."
Lucy takes out some eggs from the refrigerator. Eggs, "eggs," are, in this case,
things that come from a chicken.
