import java.io.Console;

public class TreeStory {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Console console = System.console();
        /*  Some terms:
            noun - Person, place or thing
            verb - An action
            adjective - A description used to modify or describe a noun

        */
      // __Name__ is a __adjective__ __noun__. They are always __adverb__ __verb__.
      String name = console.readLine("Enter a name:  ");
      String adjective = console.readLine("Enter an adjective:  ");
      String noun = console.readLine("Enter a noun:  ");
      String adverb = console.readLine("Enter an adverb:  ");
      String verb = console.readLine("Enter a verb ending with -ing:  ");

      console.printf("Your TreeStory:\n--------------\n");
      console.printf("%s is a %s %s.   ", name, adjective, noun);
      console.printf("They are always %s %s.\n", adverb, verb);
