What would you...what would you do?The come the time you get make up your mind.These always...to be ...the choice...

Gabe,Gabe,Gabe!

Hey...

Gabe,you look very fily.What are you doing at?

It's OK.I'm listening to a new song.

OK...OK...sounds good!Well,tell me about the song.

OK,the song is called "What would you do?".It's about choices.Listen to this!The comes and time you have to make up your mind.There's always...

Woo...woo...Gabe,hey... that something is great,we can teach.

Really?

Yeah!

That's a great idea!

The part about "making up your mind".

Eh...make up your mind.That's a good phrase to know.When you make upyour mind,that means you make a choice about something.If you're notsure what to do,and there're two things that you could do,you need tomake the choice and choose one of them.You need to make up your mind.

So when you make up your mind,you have a choice between two things,OK!I have two pieces of fruit here,Gabe.

Oh,that's great,Andrea!

I have an apple and an orange.

Well,let's also!

Eh...Gabe!

Yes?

What are you doing?

Oh,well...I'm just playing with you first.

OK,no!What I mean you need to do... is I need you to make up yourmind,you can only choose one!

Oh,only choose one?

Yes!

Oh,Dreas...I hate decisions!Can you help me make up my mind?

OK,I'll help you.Eh...

She started to eat the apple.Well,I've made up my mind.Give me the orange!

Please?!

Please give me the orange.

OK.There it go!

Thank you,Dreas!All right now,I want to share more of this song with you.

There's more of it share?Well...hey,what is it?

Well,listen closely!The choice is yours,you'd better think it through it's up to you.What would you do?

Hey...hey...I like that "it's up to you"!

It's up to you!

Now if something is up to you,that means it is your choice.You are the one who have to make a decision.Now what else can make up your mind?it's up to you,it is your choice.Hey,Gabe!

Yes?

Actually,I...I think I would also like that orange.

Eh...really?You want this orange?

Oh...that's right,I do!

It's up to you.I'm not going to stop you,you can have it if you want.

OK!

But,first let me share more of this song with you.Is it black or white,is it wrong or right?The choices often are so clearer.with pros and cons?It is think nice.That is what you got it do.

Hey...I like that gift, the pros and cons. if we can learn something from that.

Well,the pros are the good things,and the cons are the bad things.And when you make big decisions things change.

That is true.So when you think about the good things what could make the situation better,well...that is a pro.P-R-O!But if you think of the things that might make a adverb,well...that might is a con.C-O-N!

All right,and so if you put it to way the decisions,to say which ones are heavier.En...Dreas,do you still want this orange?

Well,let me way the pros and cons.OK,now if I take that orange,I will be eating another healthy thing and that's good for me,so that is a pro.

But if you take this orange,then I won't be at healthy and that is a con.

OK...OK,well,if I take the orange,we just something that I've already gave a new,the new might also be mind me,and of course that's a con.

That's a con,so what's your decision?

I let you keep your orange.

You lend the pros and cons.Thank you,thank you!

OK...OK...jeewase,wait us...wait us...

You call me Jeewase?

Jeewase?
