FED EX TV Commercial

by

Here’s a funny video that is a good online English lesson.

Did you seen the movie Castaway? This TV commercial uses the same theme as that movie.

After watching the video, answer these questions.

  1. Where does the man work now?
  2. Where was he?
  3. How long was he there?
  4. What are the contents of the package?

Here’s the script.

Man: Hi
Woman: Hi
Man: I was marooned on an island for five years with this package and I swore that I would deliver it to you, because I work for Fed ex.
Woman: That’s very admirable. Thank you.
Man: Hey look, by the way, what’s in the package?
Woman: Uh, nothing really. Just a satellite phone, GPS locator, fishing rod, water purifier, and some seeds. Just silly stuff. Thank you again. You keep up the good work.
