Welcome to my day! My career is being a model. This evening, I will be

attending an event and modelling at it – I feel a little bit anxious, but I
know it will be fun because I get to model new jeans. I also have hobbies.
I am a photographer, I play volleyball, and bake delicious cakes. Recently,
I've been trying to bring up my volleyball skills by practicing more
frequently at the local gym. Also, I've been baking new cake recipes to
bring down the stress levels after a long day. I really do love to take up
new hobbies and I want to get better at baking! Before my event this
evening, I need to see my assistant because she will be doing my make-up.
Whilst at the fashion show, I was able to look at the beautiful venue and
take in all the decorations - I do not think I will ever get over how
amazing this job is!

In the monologue you just heard, there were some special phrases
called "phrasal verbs." These are made by putting a verb together
with an adverb or preposition, sometimes both, to make a new
meaning. Here are the ones mentioned:

Phrasal verbs can mean different things when used in different
contexts. Let’s see how these common phrasal verbs can be
used in other sentences.

Take in Take up Get to

Bring down Bring up

Get over Get up

 Take In

The phrasal verb "take in" means to understand or absorb information,

or it can mean to provide shelter for someone.

For example:

She watched the documentary twice to

1 take in all the important facts.

The hotel can take in guests until all the

2 rooms are filled.

How could you

use “take in” in
a sentence?
 Take Up

"Take up" means to start or begin doing something new or to use up

space or time.

Here are two examples:

Sally decided to take up painting as

1 a hobby as well.

2 He wants to take up guitar in his free time.

Have you ever

decided to
take up a
new hobby?
 Get To

"Get to" means to have the opportunity to do something or to arrive at

a place.

Here are two examples:

1 I can’t wait to get to the beach and relax.

2 We'll get to the park in about ten minutes.

Think about your future

self – what can’t you wait
to get to do during the
holidays?
 Bring Down

"Bring down" means to lower or reduce something.

For example:

They decided to bring down the price of the product to

1 attract more customers.

The team worked together to bring down the

2 undefeated champions in the final game.

How else could

you use “bring
down” in a
sentence?
 Bring Up

"Bring up" means to mention or introduce a topic in conversation.

For example:

She decided to bring up the idea of going on a

1 vacation during the summer break.

He didn't want to bring up the issue during

2 the meeting.

Think about something

you think you could
bring up around the
dinner table!
 Get Over

"Get over" means to successfully deal with or overcome a problem or

difficulty, or to move past something.

Here are two examples:

1 She needed to get over the big wall.

It's important to get over past mistakes and focus on

2 moving forward.

Have you ever made a

mistake that you needed
to get over?
 Get Better

"Get better" means to improve in health or skill.

Here are two examples:

With proper rest and medication,

1 her cold started to get better.

2 With practice, his tennis game began to get better.

What is something you

could get better at?
