Now, we’ll ask you some questions.
Here’s the first one: Why does Saki usually raise her hand in class?
Why does Saki usually raise her hand in class?
Because she thinks asking is better than going home with lots of questions.
Great answer, Riku. Let’s listen to what Saki said.

-from the Dialogue
You know. You always raise your hand. I wish I could do that.
Why don’t you?
I usually don’t know the answers.
That’s why I ask questions.

So, the answer is: Because she has questions. If you said, “To ask questions,” that’s also correct.
Everyone, let’s try saying the answer like this: Saki raises her hand to ask questions.
Great job!
Your answer, Riku – “Because she thinks asking is better than going home with lots of questions” – that was a great answer, too.
Yes!
Thank you!
Really good. Okay. Let’s move on to the next question.
First, listen to this.

-from the Dialogue
Asking is better than going home with lots of questions.
If I ask questions, I’ll waste everyone’s time. I just ask my friends after class.
Well, it’s the teacher’s job to teach us. Besides, there may be other people with the same question.
I never thought of that.

So, here’s the question: According to Saki, what is the teacher’s job?
According to Saki, what is the teacher’s job?
It’s a teacher’s job to teach us.
“Us.” Who is “us”?
Saki and Ken and me.
Yeah, right. “The students.” Good. Very nice. So, the question was: According to Saki, what is the teacher’s job? And one way to answer is: To teach the students. If you said, “To teach” , or “The teacher’s job is to teach the students” or, like Riku said, “To teach us,” then you gave a good answer.
Everyone, let’s try saying the answer in a full sentence like this: Saki says, “A teacher’s job is to teach the students.”
Saki is not afraid to ask questions in class. It seems she really wants to learn.
Mmm, right. So, here’s the next question: Do you think Saki is a good student? Why do you think so?
Do you think Saki is a good student? Why do you think so?
Yes. Because she read(s) a textbook again before math starts.
Oh, good point.
