And there have been lots of different explanations: a dinosaur, a dolphin, different types of sea creatures, but no one can really prove it. Tess: None of the photographs or videos really prove that there’s a monster. Ravi: There are lots of different photographs and videos of the monster, but are any of them real, do you think, Tess? That’s another name for the Loch Ness monster: Nessie. The newspapers wrote about it and everyone went crazy about ‘Nessie’.
There have been stories for hundreds of years about a big animal living in the lake – it’s a really big lake – but things got really interesting in 1933 when someone ‘saw’ the monster. Ravi: I think it would be fantastic if there really was a monster in Loch Ness but, well, I don’t really think there is.
Loch Ness is a big lake in the north of Scotland and some people – lots of people – believe that some strange animal – the Loch Ness monster – lives in the lake. First of all, for people who don’t know about it, let’s tell the story. Tess: Right, the Loch Ness monster is another thing that listeners around the world said was a very British thing. Hey, Tess, do you think it really exists? I’m sure… Ravi: The monster: the Loch Ness monster. Ravi, if I say to you ‘Loch Ness’, what do you think about? Tess: And as usual we’re going to talk about something you think you know about Britain. Rob: Wow! But now, let's listen to Tess and Ravi and find out about that famous animal. She says she can let her feelings out when she sings songs - loudly! Liya from China has the most unusual solution when she feels depressed she goes to a karaoke bar. She says " The service also helped me to have positive thoughts, so I like to go to church".Īdam: Our podcast regular Tkazerooni from Iran sent us a long message with a lot of good advice. She's a Chinese girl living in Singapore and she was depressed when she first arrived - but then she found a church and met some friendly people there. And xiaxiap1202 - I like that name - also finds her religion helps her. Ahmed Jalilou from Algeria and promise93 from Libya do the same. Rob: Pure Girl also says that she reads the Koran when she feels down. Maviduman from Turkey goes running, and a lot of you go for a walk.
She goes to the gym and she rides her bicycle. And I begin to think how beautiful the world is".Īdam: Yulia also does exercise when she feels depressed. There I lie on the grass listening to birds chirping and watching airplanes cross the sky leaving their white tracks. Rob: Pure Girl talks about Hammah park in Algiers and Yulia from Japan says " When I feel sad I go to the nearest park by the sea in my city. For example, Anacla from France goes to a little park near her house. And some of you like to spend time with nature when you're feeling a bit down. And he says that from now, when he needs to cheer up, he'll call Emily and ask her advice!Īdam: Last time we asked you to write and tell us about places where you go when you want to cheer up. Rob: And Manasset from Cameroon said " Poor Carolina, but great Emily! You helped Carolina to get up and to restore her hope". Thiosko from Mali said that it's important to have a friend who helps you, and Emily is one of the best friends that anyone could have. And a lot of you commented on what a good friend Emily is to Carolina. If you remember, she was very depressed and didn't want to get out of bed.Īdam: But her friend, Emily, took control of the situation. Rob: But first let's hear some of your comments on the last podcast. As usual, they're talking about something that you think is typically British. And today we're going to hear from Tess and Ravi again. I've been quite busy recently, and sadly, this is my last podcast, but I hope you're going to enjoy it today.Īdam: OK. I'm Rob, and it's great to be back with you again. Adam: Welcome to episode 19 of the Learn English Elementary podcast.
