01.1 Socrates: What is a cat? - Beginner

Characters: Kelsey, Socrates

K: Excuse me.

S: Yes?

K: Have you seen a cat?

S: Pardon?

K: A cat. My cat is gone.

S: Oh, really?

K: Her name is Tiger. She's very small. She's about nine months old... Oh, and I'm Kelsey.

S: What is a cat?

K: ...Pardon?

S: A cat. What is it?

K: Well...um, it has four legs.

S: Like a table?

K: Um, no. It's not like a table. It moves. It's very fast.

S: Like a horse?

K: No! A horse is big! My cat is very small! Have you seen her?

S: Your cat is small and fast and has four legs... But you haven't answered my question. What is a cat?

K: *Sigh* I don't know...

Now listen to the questions. If you don't understand something, ask either Kelsey or your tutor for help. Send your answers to Kelsey in the Writing Section at LingQ or tell Kelsey your answers in a conversation with him in the Speaking Section. You don't have to answer all the questions. Good luck!
