Learning English Podcast for July 14 2023

Описание: Hosts Dan Novak and Ashley Thompson open the show with a story from Caty Weaver. She tells about the difficult journey many Ukrainians are taking to escape Russian-occupied territory, after their homes were lost in the flooding from the Kakhovka Dam collapse.

Next, Bryan Lynn tells listeners about a unique fruit tree that looks tropical but is actually native to much of North America. It is called the pawpaw tree. https://learningenglish.voanews.com/a...

Then, John Russell returns with part two of his Everyday Grammar lesson on asking for recommendations. In part 1, his lesson centered on the question word “which.” This week, he dives into sentence structures using the question word “where” as well as the verb “be.” He gives listeners a chance to practice using the following: “Where can I find ​a ​good ____?” and “Is there a good ____ near here?” https://learningenglish.voanews.com/a...

John then joins host Dan Novak to talk more about asking for recommendations.

Finally, we continue our summer National Parks journey. Ashley Thompson and Caty Weaver take us to California’s Sequoia and Kings Canyon. The area is home to some of the world’s oldest and tallest trees, as well as some of the deepest canyons and highest mountains in the United States.
