The speaker keeps coming back to these words: mine, die, weight. This video has 17 sentences and 279 words to shadow. The speech runs for 3:40. The speaker talks slowly, about 76 words per minute, so there is time to copy every sound. Only 80% of the words are among the 3,000 most common in English, so the vocabulary is demanding. 3 of its 17 sentences are questions, so it is good practice for question intonation and short answers.
