  LESSON  FIVE

[00:36.81]beautiful          powerful

[00:43.36]elegant 1           practical

[00:49.89]popular

[00:53.13]The next adjectives 2 you hear are all stressed on the second syllable 3.

[00:59.48]exciting          expensive

[01:09.22]convenient

[01:12.67]Let's use these adjectives with the superlative form the most.

[01:20.93]the most beautiful

[01:26.49]the most powerful

[01:30.25]the most elegant

[01:34.01]the most practical

[01:37.78]the most popular

[01:41.62]the most exciting

[01:45.38]the most expensive

[01:49.24]the most convenient

[01:53.37]Now let's use these words to talk about different things that we think are"

[02:01.10]the most... in town."

[02:05.96]For example,I say,"That's a beautiful house.

[02:12.34]And you say,"Yes,it's the most beautiful house in town."

[02:19.60]I say :"That's a powerful sports car."

[02:25.06]And you say,"Yes,it's the most powerful sports car in town."

[02:32.42]Ready?Begin,That's a beautiful house.

[02:39.79]Yes,it's the most beautiful house in town.

[02:45.15]That's a powerful sports car.

[02:49.51]Yes,it's the most powerful sports car in town.

[02:56.07]That's an elegant store.

[03:00.51]Yes,it's the most elegant store in town.

[03:05.97]That's an exciting job.

[03:10.22]Yes,it's the most exciting job in town.

[03:16.28]That's a convenient location.

[03:20.93]Yes,it's the most convenient location in town.

[03:26.89]You know that shorter adjectives like big and cheap

[03:33.13]form their superlatives by adding-est at the end:

[03:40.58]the biggest,the cheapest.the tallest the smallest.

[03:49.12]So we can say,"He's the smartest boy in the class."We can also say,"

[03:58.26]He's the most intelligent boy in the class."

[04:04.04]Let's repeat each of those sentences.

[04:08.58]He's the smartest boy in the class.

[04:13.26]He's the most intelligent boy in the class.

[04:19.03]Listen to this talk about three houses:a small house.

[04:25.87]a larger house,and a very big house.

[04:32.54]Notice the adjectives.Do they have-est at the end,

[04:40.29]like smartest or do they use the most in front,

[04:46.85]like the most intelligent?

[04:51.21]The small house is the most inexpensive of the three.

[04:58.66]It's the smallest of course.but also the most practical to buy.

[05:06.60]The larger house is the most convenient.

[05:11.85]You can walk downtown in the shortest time.

[05:17.73]It's also the most comfortable.

[05:22.69]The biggest house is the most expensive.

[05:28.25]It's also the elegant.

[05:33.01]It's in the safest neighborhood.

[05:37.27]It's not the most popular because it isn't as economical 4 as the other two.

[05:45.03]But it is the most beautiful.

[05:50.67]Now repeat each sentence after you listen to it again.

[05:56.83]The small house is the most inexpensive of he three.

[06:03.60]It's the smallest,of course,but also the most practical to buy.

[06:14.65]The larger house is the most convenient.

[06:20.21]You can walk downtown in the shortest time.

[06:26.09]It's also the most comfortable.

[06:31.24]The bigest house is hte most exensive.

[06:36.88]It's also the most elegant.

[06:41.74]It's in the safest neighborhood.

[06:46.28]It's not the most popular.

[06:50.83]because it isn't as economical as the other two.

[06:56.89]But it is the most beautiful.

[07:01.85]Now let's see if you know which adjectives take-est at the end

[07:08.62]and which use the  most in front.

[07:14.08]You be the car dealer,talking about the new cars in your lot.

[07:21.05]When I say,"Is this car..."

[07:26.09]then a long adjective,like popular,you say,

[07:32.75]"This car is the most popular on our lot."

[07:38.11]Of course if I use a short adjective,like nice,you say,

[07:45.55]This car is the nicest on our lot"

[07:50.99]Ready?Let's begin,Is this car popular?

[07:58.35]This car is the most popular on our lot.

[08:03.32]Is this car nice?

[08:07.08]This car is the nicest on our lot.

[09:14.55]You can count on Video King for the best prices in town.

[09:40.60]come on over to Video King on Main Street.

[09:47.15]At Video King,you don't have to pay through the nose.

[09:54.60]Now you be the salesperson 5 selling TVs and VCRs.

[10:01.26]Try to make your voice sound like the salesperson's voice.

[10:07.03]Listen again and repeat.

[10:10.69]Are you looking for a new TV or a new VCR?

[10:17.82]You can count on Video King for the best prices in town.

[10:25.97]We have hundreds of great new TVs and VCRs,

[10:38.80]If you want a new TV or a new VCR at a low price,

[10:46.66]come on over to Video King on Main Street.

[10:53.14]At Video King,you don't have to pay through the nose.

[11:00.90]Did you notice the new expessions.

[11:04.84]Now say them separately,then in the sentences.Listen and repeat.
