In TV shows and films, aliens often have spaceships and they look very different to human spaceships. In the 1960s we sent a spaceship to the moon. We don’t really have many spaceships now. Data is often presented in graphs and tables.Ī spaceship is a ship in space. When you do a research project, you will look up data.
Data is facts and statistics that are used for analysis. OK, so I’ll just explain the words in the story.ĭata. Anyway, you don’t need to know a lot about science to understand and enjoy this story. I might have made some mistakes because I changed words, but I don’t think the scientific accuracy is super important for this episode. So I tried to remove these when they weren’t necessary. Obviously, science fiction has a lot of words related to space and technology. I tried to remove difficult language as much as possible. It is, however, a really good story, so I think you’ll enjoy it. So it’s just going to be a bit longer than normal. The original story is longer than our stories normally are, but it was difficult to cut parts out. I don’t think we’ve actually had any science fiction on the podcast so far, so I thought it would be good to get some good science fiction stories. Today’s story is originally by Isaac Asimov. This contains the full story, as well as my conversation before it. You can find a transcript of the episode at /Question. The name of the story is The Last Question. Today’s story is for pre-intermediate learners. I am Ariel Goodbody, your host for this show. Welcome to Easy Stories in English, the podcast that will take your English from OK to Good, and from Good to Great. So there won’t be any podcasts for two weeks. I am going on holiday for two weeks, starting tomorrow.
