BAGIAN II: SESUDAH SIARAN

Catatan:

Suatu ungkapan waktu yang berguna yang saudara dengar dalam siaran ialah on Saturdays.

Perhatikan perbedaan antara on Saturday, yang berarti pada suatu hari Sabtu yang tertentu — hari Sabtu yang lalu atau hari Sabtu yang akan datang — dan on Saturdays, yang maksudnya every Saturday.

He’s going to meet her on Saturday = next Saturday (karena kita memakai bentuk Going to).

He meets her on Saturdays = every Saturday.

LIBURAN PANJANG UNIVERSITAS

Dalam siaran Chris dan Iwan berbicara tentang liburan di universitas pada akhir tahun. Liburan ini kadang-kadang disebut the long vacation = liburan panjang (karena lebih lama dari pada liburan-liburan yang lain — kira-kira tiga bulan lamanya) atau the Christmas vacation = liburan Natal. Di kebanyakan universitas ada dua liburan lagi selama tahun pelajaran: dalam bulan Mei dan dalam bulan Agustus/September.

Dalam liburan panjang banyak mahasiswa universitas mencoba mencari pekerjaan supaya dapat menabung sedikit untuk tahun berikutnya. Tidaklah selalu mudah mendapat pekerjaan untuk tiga bulan saja dan jenis pekerjaan yang dilakukan mahasiswa biasanya bersifat musiman — misalnya, memetik buah di suatu perkebunan atau bekerja di toko selama kesibukan menjelang hari Natal.
