I am ready to take on anything she gives me. Well, except reporting traffic from a helicopter. Wish me luck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Professor Bot: I wonder what Anna\u2019s new assignment will be? Professor Bot here! While you are watching, look for phrasal, or two-word verbs. Some stay together, like \u201cgo back\u201d and some can come apart, like \u201cgive [assignments] out.\u201d Good luck, Anna!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ms. Weaver: So, as I said at the meeting last week, I have new assignments for everyone at The Studio. Anna, you&#8217;re good at asking questions. So, I want you to go back to hosting and reporting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anna: That sounds great.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ms. Weaver: You&#8217;re also a team player. So, I want you team up with someone \u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anna: That sounds even better!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ms. Weaver: \u2026 someone who is very &#8220;different&#8221; from you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anna: That sounds \u2026 what do you mean &#8220;different&#8221;?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ms. Weaver: Well, you are very cheerful, you&#8217;re a people person. I want you to team up with someone who \u2026 isn&#8217;t.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anna: Ms. Weaver, I will find that person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mimi: Excuse me. Are you using this chair?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pete: Yes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anna: Pete, hi! Thanks for meeting me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pete: Sure. But I don\u2019t have lots of time, Anna. I\u2019m busy looking for work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anna: Pete, you can tear these want ads up and throw them away! I have good news!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pete: Anna, I was working on that crossword puzzle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anna: Oh. Sorry. Sorry. Pete, forget about the crossword puzzle. I have a job offer for you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pete: I&#8217;m listening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anna: My boss wants me to team up with someone to host a talk show. But the person must be different from me. So, I thought of you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pete: Different from you? What do you mean?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anna: I&#8217;m sorry, Pete, I don&#8217;t have time right now. Here&#8217;s my boss&#8217;s address. Your interview is tomorrow morning at 10 am.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pete: But what do you mean \u201cdifferent\u201d?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anna: Just be yourself, Pete. Just be yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Professor Bot: Did you find any two-word verbs? Here\u2019s one example. Pete can throw the want ads away! Throw away is a two-word verb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ms. Weaver: Thanks for coming in, Pete.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pete: Thanks for the opportunity, Ms. Weaver.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ms. Weaver: I need to find out if you have the skills for this job. And I want you to be completely honest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pete: Okay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ms. Weaver: First, let&#8217;s talk about your personal skills. Pete, are you a people person?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pete: Well, okay, sometimes I think people talk too much.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ms. Weaver: Pete, what work of yours are you most proud of?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pete: Last year, I locked myself in a cabin and wrote a book. I didn&#8217;t speak to anybody the entire time! It was the best two months of my life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ms. Weaver: Okay. I think I\u2019ve heard enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anna: Hey! Hey, Pete, how was the interview with Ms. Weaver?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pete: Well, she said I was grumpy and not good with people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anna: And \u2026 ?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pete: And, I got the job!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anna: I knew it! Congratulations! Let&#8217;s go celebrate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pete: Okay!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Professor Bot: Did you find more two-word verbs?
