Jinny and Katherine are Carrie's students. They learned the book: Reading and Vocbulary Development 1, lesson 2: the camel. They found the unit of the book not very interesting so they created a upgrade version of the unit. 

Teacher: Carrie

  A very good film by Jinny

 

 

There were two camels named Jinny and Katherine. They were friends but Jinny was a Bactrian camel, and Katherine was an Arabian camel. Now let's listen to their conversation.

 

Katherine : Hey! Jinny! Aren't you tired?
Jinny : Me? I'm okay. But why?
Katherine : I thought you would be tired. You have two humps!!
Jinny : Oh? Me!! How about you? Your humps are too small people think you're a horse!!
Katherine : No, they do not!!
Jinny : Yes, but they do!
Katherine : Then let's ask our owners!!
Jinny : Good idea!
Katherine : Hey! Do you think I look like a horse?

- Katherine ask it's owner, but people can not understand camel language.

Katherine's owner : Are they crazy?
Jinny's owner : I think so. Maybe they are just too tired.

Jinny : Let's just talk between ourselves. I'm sorry.
Katherine : Me too. I'm sorry too... Still friends?
Jinny : Friends!
