Independent Study 4

                 Today is the last class in our October four class set.

                  Our phrase of the week is, "the sad truth is..." We use this opening to introduce a disappointing yet realistic viewpoint. A similar phrase is, "to be honest with you..." For example, "Many students study hard. The sad truth is very few of them will get into a good college."

                   Today's reading is about a webtoonist that describes Korea's workplace. Today's listening material is about self-checkout. Please listen for and create examples for the vocabulary words.
