Phrasal verb stories? Hello! I'm looking for random stories that are designed for English learners to learn phrasal verbs. I've found some web sites offering stories of this kind, but I realized that those are mostly British English. I understand that there is not that much difference between American English and British English when it comes to phrasal verbs, but sometimes it happens that some phrasal verbs are used in England and not in America and vice versa. I'd repay appreciate if you know ones offering phrasal verbs that are mostly used in America. I'm going to post a story below that I just made up using random phrasal verbs.I think this is very fun and gives me (and I hope some of other English learners) to read. It's also very effective because the context is obvious and it's easy to learn how to use them. I bought probably 10 different books on phrasal verbs, and I bought them according to the popularity and reviews that they got on Amazon.com. They are very informative and yes, very useful. I learned a lot. But, 90% of them are just a list of phrasal verbs with some example sentences using them, and it has a section at the end of each chapter where you can go over and practice them. I think those example sentences are meant to give us the context in which they are used, but each sentence is pretty short and the context is very random. And once you finish learning a couple of phrasal verbs on the page you just read, they never show up again in the book. But if there are stories (maybe one story takes up 4-5 pages, and 10-20 different stories in one book, using the same kind of phrasal verbs again and again), that would be a great exercise for our brain. So I was wondering if there is such a book or web site doing this kind of thing. Anyway, I'd like to post an example story that I just made up where I use random phrasal verbs. Thank you! ........................................ I went to the most beautiful beach in the world. I put suntan lotion on and enjoyed my time there. After returning from the vacation, I talked to my friend about how amazing the experience was, but he didn't believe me because he thought I couldn't afford to go to the best beach in the world. He said "don't try to put me on." I replied, "It's not a put-on!" "I don't believe you have the ability to pay for that. It must have run into $1 million," he said. I told him, "yeah, I had a coupon, which took 99% off the entire cost. Also, my business has taken off, so I had no problem paying it all up. If you're still dubious about that, that's fine. I'm not going to talk about that anymore" So, I took off in frustration. By the way, in my business, we hold so many events every month, like 25 company events per month, because we like to have fun. Normally, each event comes off very well. Everyone is meticulous and attentive, so they pay attention to every single detail, they even care about whether or not the color of the decor shows up well against the color of the wall. Some of them easily come down with a cold or even with the flu because of the fatigue from their work. There was someone who had cancer, but he pulled through completely, because of his mad love and insane degree of passion toward working for my company. He's so loyal to me and my company. He always goes along with my decision and idea. I hope all this story didn't make you want to doze off.
