Click play to listen to the Voki read the text below.

Good morning TASS ESL Students! Today's word is geography.

Geography is the study of place. Geographers are people who study the earth's surface. They also study and compare different places in the world. Geographers are interested in finding out about things like weather and climate.

Geographers also study people. They want to know how people adapt or change in places where they live in order to survive.

Facts like population, or how many people live in a certain area, as well as what people's jobs are -- these are facts that interest geographers. The many facts of a place, such as New York City, help to paint a bigger picture of it.
