4. On the second day

T: On the second day, Hobo and Eddie came to the robot show. They saw many robots. Hobo was interested in the one that was good at telling jokes. Now listen to one of the jokes:

One day, on a train, an Englishman met an American. The American is outgoing and  willing to making friends with others. After some greetings, he asked the Englishman, “What’s your job?” The Englishman answered, “I’m a clerk.” The American said in surprise, “Clock? Your job is to tick tick all day long?”

  T: Hobo couldn’t understand the joke. How about you? 

  T: Yes. The pronunciation of “clerk” in British English is similar to that of “clock” in American English.

5. Differences in pronunciation

T: Take turns to read the words on the screen to your partner.

Vowel–A  Vowel–O  Consonant–R
