00:01.140 --> 00:04.500
Good morning welcome to YOUR I'll speak you test.

00:04.500 --> 00:10.860
There are three parts to the test and part one I'm going to be asking you a few questions to get to

00:10.860 --> 00:11.580
know you.

00:11.790 --> 00:12.830
Let us begin.

00:12.870 --> 00:14.610
OK sounds great.

00:14.610 --> 00:16.830
What is your full name.

00:16.830 --> 00:27.800
My my my parents name me Hans after my great grandfather who was also named Hans my last name is Gruber.

00:28.200 --> 00:29.810
Can I see your I.D..

00:29.820 --> 00:30.420
Sure.

00:30.420 --> 00:34.180
Here is my passport for you to take for you to take a look at.

00:34.460 --> 00:36.710
Where are you from.

00:36.720 --> 00:44.220
I am originally from Germany which is a beautiful country located in Europe.

00:44.220 --> 00:54.060
If you want to a little bit more information then that I am specifically from from the city of Hamburg.

00:54.570 --> 00:56.230
Do you like it there.

00:56.790 --> 00:57.670
Yes.

00:57.880 --> 01:00.180
It's a very beautiful city.

01:00.300 --> 01:05.200
We have very nice agriculture and it's very very green.

01:05.640 --> 01:13.620
The people there enjoy being outside and walking around to see the city.

01:13.620 --> 01:15.670
Do you like the weather there.

01:16.350 --> 01:24.990
Well I have to say that I'm not a big fan of the weather because I've had an opportunity to live in

01:24.990 --> 01:34.130
some very warm places such as Casablanca Morocco and also in for a very short time in Hawaii.

01:34.320 --> 01:39.060
And after living there and experiencing the weather I would have to say I'm really not a fan of the

01:39.060 --> 01:43.240
snow and cold that we have in Germany right now.

01:43.390 --> 01:46.120
This kind of weather suitable for children.

01:46.350 --> 01:47.540
Well yeah it's is this good.

01:47.550 --> 01:54.660
It's good for children mainly because children will have an opportunity opportunity to experience all

01:54.660 --> 02:00.800
the different seasons that we have there and we have a great fall winter summer in spring.

02:01.080 --> 02:05.090
So definitely for children this is absolutely wonderful.

02:07.530 --> 02:10.480
OK let's talk about your home OK.

02:10.560 --> 02:12.800
Is it a house or an apartment.

02:13.440 --> 02:22.790
Right now I'm living in that house with a wife with family and we are I don't know what kind of house

02:22.790 --> 02:27.870
it is but it's about three stories if you include the basement.

02:28.260 --> 02:30.300
And it's very very beautiful.

02:30.300 --> 02:32.360
Do you enjoy living there.

02:32.940 --> 02:35.410
Yes absolutely.

02:35.460 --> 02:39.810
I have resided in this home for about a year now.

02:40.290 --> 02:44.680
And the family there makes it very very enjoyable to live in this house.

02:44.910 --> 02:49.420
We have we have dinner together every Friday.

02:49.680 --> 02:53.770
And there's always some different type of international meal that's made.

02:53.850 --> 02:56.310
So I'd definitely like living there.

02:56.400 --> 03:00.240
What is the most enjoyable part.

03:01.470 --> 03:12.180
I would say the most the the the the part that I really like the most that I love the most would have

03:12.180 --> 03:16.770
to be the game room in the game room in the house.

03:16.850 --> 03:22.770
There is a ping pong table and a very big white screen television.

03:23.310 --> 03:32.010
And so I spent a lot of time down there playing ping pong with the with the family children or watching

03:32.010 --> 03:33.890
movies down there.

03:33.900 --> 03:39.040
What activities do you like to do on the weekends.

03:39.300 --> 03:48.930
That's a very interesting question because very often it depends on what city I'm living in at the time.

03:48.930 --> 03:59.340
Currently I actually like to probably do sports on the weekend for example last weekend I went rollerblading

04:00.120 --> 04:01.210
in the park.

04:01.410 --> 04:04.390
And also I was able to play some golf.

04:04.830 --> 04:06.880
Who was there with you.

04:07.710 --> 04:13.140
Well I went I went rollerblading by myself so there was there was.

04:13.170 --> 04:17.180
I had no company with me when I was doing that activity.

04:17.190 --> 04:26.350
However when I went to play a round of golf I was with two of my friends and we had a really good competition.

04:26.430 --> 04:33.270
Do you mostly spend weekends studying or for leisure.

04:33.750 --> 04:38.790
Well I would love to do it for leisure more more than studying.

04:38.850 --> 04:47.610
But right now at this point in my life I use most of my weekend for learning learning or reading for

04:47.610 --> 04:50.670
the upcoming week of classes.

04:50.670 --> 04:54.880
What is your favorite part of the weekend.

04:54.960 --> 05:04.250
Definitely Saturday definitely Saturday because on Sunday it is the weekend.

05:04.470 --> 05:08.670
But in the back of my mind I'm always thinking about wow.

05:09.030 --> 05:15.100
Tomorrow I have to go to work on Monday so I'm not a big fan of Sunday on Saturday.

05:15.100 --> 05:16.880
A much more relaxed.

05:17.340 --> 05:19.580
OK let's talk about mathematics.

05:19.830 --> 05:20.480
Wow.

05:20.580 --> 05:21.440
OK.

05:21.480 --> 05:23.430
Are you interested in math.

05:23.430 --> 05:24.360
No.

05:24.960 --> 05:25.370
No.

05:25.380 --> 05:29.420
I don't have any interest in mathematics at all whatsoever.

05:29.430 --> 05:32.840
The reason why is to me is very boring.

05:33.210 --> 05:39.140
And I don't see how it's very useful to me in my life.

05:39.180 --> 05:39.850
OK.

05:39.930 --> 05:41.530
Let's talk about science.

05:41.580 --> 05:42.100
OK.

05:42.120 --> 05:44.310
Are you interested in science.

05:44.790 --> 05:46.270
Yeah I like some sciences.

05:46.290 --> 05:52.480
I would say that I like the social sciences more than the hard sciences.

05:52.500 --> 05:59.310
So when you're talking about psychology sociology science is like that.

05:59.340 --> 06:02.590
Yes I definitely love those types of Sciences.

06:02.610 --> 06:10.120
I wouldn't say I'm a big fan of chemistry and biology but what the social sciences is yes I like those.

06:10.140 --> 06:13.540
Do you watch science TV programmes.

06:13.560 --> 06:14.470
Definitely.

06:14.880 --> 06:15.700
Definitely.

06:15.700 --> 06:25.650
I love love to sit down turn on the television and take a look at Star Trek Star Trek as you might know

06:25.650 --> 06:31.440
is a science fiction show that was created in the United States but it's seen all over the world now

06:31.920 --> 06:37.830
and they always have very very interesting science problems on that program.

06:37.830 --> 06:44.460
In addition I love to watch the Discovery Channel because I'm able to learn a lot in a lot of scientific

06:44.460 --> 06:46.270
information on that.

06:46.320 --> 06:49.640
Do you visit science museums.

06:50.730 --> 06:52.940
I may have been to the south.

06:53.010 --> 06:59.340
I may have I may have been to a science museum once or twice.

06:59.790 --> 07:01.660
I had a really good time.

07:01.860 --> 07:07.910
But there are there have not been many occasions for me to go and visit a science museum.

07:08.060 --> 07:08.720
OK.

07:08.790 --> 07:13.610
Do you think it is important for children to have different activities at school.

07:14.220 --> 07:17.280
Yes yes yes.

07:17.640 --> 07:22.230
Some people think that children should only learn math science

07:24.840 --> 07:30.770
or language they just are just the normal what they call the core classes.

07:31.020 --> 07:39.550
But I think it's really important for students to also learn to go to physical education art music hall

07:39.770 --> 07:45.810
economics all those type of Klahr all those types all those type of classes are really important because

07:45.810 --> 07:50.850
they teach you how to live and appreciate life and grow your creativity.

07:50.850 --> 07:55.010
Have you been involved in any activities during your school years.

07:55.290 --> 08:02.430
Yeah for a long time I worked on the school newspaper and when I was working on the school's newspaper

08:02.430 --> 08:08.820
I was in charge of writing articles for the sports teams.

08:08.820 --> 08:11.750
What would you like to learn in the future.

08:12.810 --> 08:16.500
Well I actually have thought about that a lot.

08:16.740 --> 08:27.390
I think that I would be able to develop an appreciation to become educated in another you know an additional

08:27.390 --> 08:28.590
language.

08:28.620 --> 08:36.510
I think that I would like to learn maybe Chinese or Arabic because they seem to be very import languages

08:36.570 --> 08:38.610
in the world right now also.

08:38.880 --> 08:40.470
Do you like reading books.

08:43.060 --> 08:45.030
That is an affirmative.

08:45.280 --> 08:53.320
I would say that I read probably about two or three books every month and I think that would qualify

08:53.320 --> 08:55.910
me as being somebody who likes to read books.

08:55.990 --> 08:58.750
What type of books do you read.

08:58.750 --> 09:07.090
I mainly enjoy alternative history books and also science fiction books the alternative history books

09:07.090 --> 09:13.180
are very interesting because they give you a look at how life might have been different if some historical

09:13.180 --> 09:15.370
fact had been changed.

09:15.370 --> 09:18.830
Are you or are you reading a book presently.

09:19.270 --> 09:19.860
Yes.

09:19.900 --> 09:26.710
Right now I'm reading a book by a scientific author named John McDevitt and the name of the book is

09:26.710 --> 09:27.980
deep six.

09:28.150 --> 09:35.720
It's about humanity having contact with some type of alien civilization and it's very interesting.

09:35.830 --> 09:38.680
Would you like to write a book in the future.

09:39.400 --> 09:44.190
You know that's that's that's that's that's a very good question.

09:44.230 --> 09:51.640
I think that I might enjoy that process of putting together a book because I think it will be a great

09:51.640 --> 09:57.850
idea for people to see my ideas or read my ideas that I have.

09:58.420 --> 09:59.740
Thank you very much though.

09:59.770 --> 10:00.980
Conclude part 1.

10:01.030 --> 10:01.570
Thank you.
