El Parque

I INTRODUCED MYSELF A LITTLE IN THE FIRST POSDCAST!

Comprehensible Turkish Podcast

Let's Meet! Who am I? 

La settimana scorsa Jimmy ha voluto fare un viaggio a Roma. È stata la sua prima volta nella capitale italiana. È partito da Venezia lo scorso lunedì mattina. Ha preso il treno ad alta velocità e in tre ore e mezza circa è arrivato a Roma.
Jimmy è andato in viaggio da solo perché il suo amico Marco durante la settimana lavora, invece Jimmy ha molto tempo libero e ha deciso di viaggiare in tutte le città italiane.

Roma è la sua prima tappa. Ha prenotato una stanza in un hotel di fronte al Colosseo. Ogni mattina quando si sveglia può vedere le meraviglie dell’anfiteatro Flavio. Il primo giorno ha anche visitato l’interno dell’arena. Poi ha fatto un giro al foro romano, al circo massimo, nel quartiere ebraico e a Trastevere. Ha visitato Castel Sant’Angelo e infine il Vaticano.

A Roma Jimmy ha camminato molto, ha fatto tante foto e ha mangiato molte cose buone e tipiche.

Un giorno, però, ha perso il portafoglio con i soldi e i documenti. È dovuto andare a denunciare il furto alla polizia, ma il suo italiano non è ancora buono!

Ha telefonato al suo amico Marco, che non ha risposto. A volte Marco non risponde al telefono perché è molto pigro e non ha voglia di parlare.

Allora Jimmy ha preso un pezzo di carta, una penna e ha disegnato un portafoglio e un ladro. Finalmente la polizia ha capito e ha fatto la denuncia.

Quel giorno Jimmy è diventato molto triste: ha dovuto fare le valigie e tornare a Venezia perché nasconde i soldi sotto il materasso del suo nuovo appartamento.

Il passato prossimo = in this text you can see some verbs of the past tense. Just as in English, some participle can be irregular. Perdere = perso; decidere = deciso; etc.
Durante la settimana = Durante la settimana significa dal lunedì al venerdì, cioè i giorni in cui lavoriamo.

Un viaggio

In this story, a Ferrari named Rarri gets an offer that’s hard to refuse. But what will the consequences be? This is Part 2 of 6.  

It was 7:25am when Rarri rolled into the large garage located at the race track. It was here where the racing cars got tuned up and repaired. Rarri’s number one competitor was waiting for him: a Mercedes racing car. 

“Good of you to meet me here,” said the Mercedes. 

“Why did you call me here?” said Rarri. 

“I just wanted to have a friendly talk.” 

The Mercedes was leaking arrogance and superiority. Rarri didn’t respond, but slightly revved his engine. 

“Listen Rarri, I’ll cut to the chase. I’ve got all the money I’ll ever need. Enough to feed generations of Mercedes. That’s not why I race. I race for the glory. And as you know, I have quite a reputation.” 

Rarri said, “You called me here to boast about your success?” 

“I’ve been watching you closely, Mr. Ferrari. You’ve performed quite well, winning so many races. But you know you can’t beat me, and I won’t let you. That cup is mine.” 

“We’ll see who is the faster car and better driver soon.” 

“Maybe, but I’d rather settle things today. I have an offer for you. You lose on purpose and I’ll give you half the prize money. Second place is nothing to be ashamed of.” 

Rarri’s mind immediately flashed to his family. They all depended on Rarri to win this race. They had been so supportive, encouraging him day and night to train harder. 

Mercedes saw that Rarri was contemplating and he said, “I heard a little rumour that you’re feeling a bit nervous about the big race. Something about wind and snow. Would I be right?” 

“I’m not worried about snow,” said Rarri, trying to be brave. “But I care very much about my family, and they need this money. I’ll think about your offer and let you know before the big race.” 

“Listen here, little race car. I respect you, but you must know, if you don’t accept my gracious offer, there’ll be consequences… You’ve got 24 hours.”

The Missing Element in All Types of Interviews

In a job interview, make your case fast and be sure your suit is pressed, too. But it's not what the recording is about :) 

You might laugh, but it takes a few seconds for an experienced HR manager to decide on the outcome of the interview.

One of my students from China working as a general manager for a luxury firm said, "Oh, Anatoly, I watch for the words they use; if they have a victim mentality, the chances of them succeeding with us are low.". 

What are you going to do now after reading this?

I mean, I hear these remarks by my students who are top managers—they don't want to hear any kind of whining or complaining about the past. All they care about is how successfully you are going to assist and support the company's evolution and growth!

The winner's attitude is what they are looking for, and to be honest, it's a rare-case scenario.

If you check with yourself, what do you like? A complainer? A thrilled and excited individual? Are you happy about the changes, or does the future seem dark and gloomy?

Top managers got themselves trained to pick those nuanses, and so do I, as I've had top performers as my students for 8 years, and I did close to 21 thousand meetings with them—it's evident!

Let me know if this text was an eye-opener for you. I would be for me!!! 

If you want  me to listen to your speech and share some recommentations of how to improve your English performance - be my guest, book my classes now!
