Now, we’ll ask you some questions.
Here’s the first one: Q). According to Dad, what was Ken’s goal? And according to Ken, what was his goal?
According to Dad, what was Ken’s goal? And according to Ken, what was his goal?
Riku?
According to Dad, his goal was to do better in math. And according Ken, his goal was to get a girlfriend.
“According to Ken.” Yes, very nice. Let’s check what Ken said.

-from the Dialogue
How about you, Ken? Your goal was to do better in math.
No, Dad. My goal was to get a girlfriend.
Oh, right, right.

So, the question was: Q1). According to Dad, what was Ken’s goal? And according to Ken, what was his goal? And the answer is: According to Dad, Ken’s goal was to do better in math. But according to Ken, it was to get a girlfriend.
So, your answer was correct, Riku. All right. Everyone, let’s try saying the answer. We’ll say it in two parts. Ready? “According to Dad, Ken’s goal was to do better in math.” “But according to Ken, it was to get a girlfriend.”
Okay. Let’s move on to the next question. First, listen to this.

So, here’s the question: Q2). Did Ken get a girlfriend?
Did Ken get a girlfriend? Riku?
No, he didn’t.
The question was: Did Ken get a girlfriend? And the answer is… well, you’re right, Riku, but maybe the answer should be: Not exactly. “Not exactly” doesn’t mean “yes,” and it doesn’t mean “no.” We’ll discuss this more at the end of today’s show.
All right. Everyone, let’s try saying the answer. Not exactly.
Not exactly. Nice work.
Good job. Now, here’s the next question. Ken says, “Sometimes doing things I don’t like can be good.” What are some things that you don’t like to do but you think are good for you?
What are some things that you don’t like to do but you think are good for you?
Riku?
I think I should exercise sometimes. It is good for me.
I remember from April, I think, April or May, you said you don’t like to exercise. But you’re right. It’s good for you.
It is.
What do you think, Gary-sensei?
Well, going to see the doctor and the dentist. That’s usually not much fun, but I do think it’s good for us because it helps us to stay healthy
Yes. Those are good examples.
