Bobby woke up at 4 am
Mini story lesson


Hey there! This is Jason from "Power English". This time we've got a story about Bobby. The story is told twice, and then there are questions.

Part 1

Bobby woke up at 4:00 am because he heard a dog. He heard a dog barking outside his window. Bobby woke up when he heard the dog barking. Bobby got out of bed. He got out of bed and walked to the window. He looked out the window. He saw a big pink dog. It was barking very loud. Bobby opened his window. He looked at the barking dog. ″Shut up! loud dog″ he screamed at the dog. The dog looked at Bobby. Then it stopped barking.
