Question number five, who? Okay, we have a idiom and we have a picture. I see two older people dancing. You could say all people, it looks like the guy is maybe whistling or He's surprised. Ooh, someone's taking a picture. The ladies, he has your eyes closed and look like she's having a great time.

Looks like they're dancing. And yeah, I think they're having a real nice time. Finish the conversation using the idiom and the picture. The conversation starts. You're the love of my life, baby. I wish we could dance all night long and enjoy this moment forever.

All right, whatever you'd like. Take some time. Pause the video. Think about it. Finish the conversation and use the idiom at least once and use the picture for inspiration. Okay, I'm going to give you our answer in five 4321 All right, so it starts.

You're the love of my life, baby. I wish we could dance all night long and enjoy this moment forever. So let's see, the lady was saying that. Now the guy's going to talk. We've lived beyond our means for a long time. I was hoping we wouldn't have to work when we were old.

And she responds, the boss is watching us. We'd better get back to work. We need to make some money to pay our bills. Let's make idiom bold, so it jumps out. And here is the conversation. This is one way we could do it.

So she says, You're the love of my life, baby. I wish we could dance all night long and enjoy this moment forever. He says, We've lived beyond our means for a long time. I was hoping we wouldn't have to work when we were old. She says, The boss is watching us. We better get back to work.

We need to make some money to pay our bills. So this situation might not be exactly what you were expecting. It looks like it's an older couple on vacation or relaxing, having a nice dance. But actually, their employees, they work there and they took a break or they snuck away to have a dance and the boss's watchi. They need to get back to work. And unfortunately for their life for a long time they've been living beyond their means.

They've been spending more money than they earn, or they live in a way that they have high expenses and low income. Okay. Let's do another great. I'm going to give you another way that you could finish this conversation. So let's have him talking first. He says, You're the love of my life, baby.

I wish we could dance all night long and enjoy this moment forever. She says, I'm so glad we didn't live beyond our means during our lifetime. We've been able to do incredible things. And then he says I have an idea. Next month, let's go bungee jumping. skydiving and play chess on top of Mount Everest.

Whoo. All right. First, let's make the idiom bold so you can see it very easily. And the conversation is, you're the love of my life, baby. I wish we could dance all night long and enjoy this moment forever. I'm so glad we didn't live beyond our means during our lifetime.

We've been able to do incredible things. I have an idea next month. Let's go Bungee Jumping skydiving and play chess on top of Mount Everest. So this situation, this conversation ends much better than the first one. It looks like this couple is traveling, having a great time and they don't have to work anymore if they don't want to. They do incredible things.

And they're planning to go bungee jumping, skydiving and play chess on top. of Mount Everest. So this conversation ends much happier than the last one. These people are not living beyond their means they're living within their means. Once again, it means they're able to afford their lifestyle. They can pay for their lifestyle, their income or the amount of money that they have, can pay for the things they do.

We just finished review. How did you do
