Listen to the Entire Lesson

Here are some questions commonly used when talking about taking care of your house on the outside.

"How often should I mow the grass?"
"What should I do to get rid of the weeds?"
"When should I plant flowers?"
"How do I clean my outside windows?"
"How do I get rid of moles?"
"What do I do about bee hives?"

If you are asked any of these questions, here are ways that you could respond.

"You should mow your grass once a week."
"I just mow mine once it gets really long."

"I would go to Home Depot and ask someone for recommendations."
"It depends on what kind of weeds you have, some are worse than others."

"You should plant flowers in the spring."
"I would always wait until it gets warm to plant flowers, that way they will last all summer."

"I would use a ladder and clean my outside windows myself."
"I would see if you can hire someone. Your windows are really high and you could get hurt."

"They sell pellets you can put in mole holes to help get rid of them."
"I would call a pest control company and ask them for recommendations."

"I would not mess with bee hives, call for someone to come out and get rid of it."
"I would buy bee killer spray from the store and just spray it."
