Hello and welcome to English Audio Lab.
2
My name is Trevor.
3
And I'm Alicia.
4
We're so glad you're joining us today.
5
Today we have a very useful topic.
6
We're going to talk about energy level level.
7
That's right.
8
We all have days when we feel great and days when we feel not so great.
9
Exactly.
10
So we'll learn different ways to say you are full of energy and different ways to say you are very tired.
11
This is perfect for everyday conversation.
12
Let's get started.
13
So, Alicia, to begin, how are you feeling today?
14
Oh, that's a good question.
15
To be honest, I'm feeling a bit sluggish this morning.
16
Sluggish.
17
That's a great word.
18
Can you explain what that means?
19
Sure.
20
Sluggish means I feel slow and like I have very little energy.
21
I didn't sleep very well last night,
22
so I'm not feeling my best.
23
I understand.
24
So your body and mind feel slow.
25
How about you, listeners?
26
Have you ever felt sluggish?
27
How about you, Trevor?
28
You seem to have a lot of energy today.
29
I do.
30
I'm feeling quite energetic.
31
I had a wonderful night's sleep and I went for a walk this morning.
32
That sounds lovely.
33
So you're the opposite of sluggish.
34
Yes, you could say I'm feeling bright-eyed and bushy-tailed.
35
Ooh, that's a fun one.
36
Bright-eyed and bushy-tailed.
37
What does that mean?
38
It's a playful expression that means you are alert,
39
awake, and full of energy, ready for the day.
40
I love that.
41
I hope I feel bright-eyed and bushy-tailed tomorrow.
42
Let's explore some more words and phrases.
43
First, let's talk about having high energy.
44
The most common way is to say,
45
I have a lot of energy, or I feel energetic.
46
Right.
47
Simple and clear.
48
Like, I feel energetic after my morning coffee.
49
Perfect example.
50
Another phrase is full of beans.
51
A bowl of beans?
52
That sounds funny.
53
It is a little funny.
54
It's an informal way to say someone is lively and has a lot of energy.
55
We often use it for children.
56
For example, the kids are full of beans today after that cake.
57
I see.
58
So it's for someone who is very active and maybe a bit excited.
59
Exactly.
60
Another useful expression is on top of the world.
61
I like that one.
62
It sounds like you feel amazing.
63
It means you feel wonderful, successful, and very happy.
64
It's more about a feeling of happiness and confidence,
65
which often includes high energy.
66
For instance, after I got the job,
67
I felt on top of the world.
68
That makes sense.
69
It's a feeling of total victory.
70
Now, let's talk about low energy.
71
The most common word is, of course, tired.
72
Yes, everyone knows tired.
73
But what if you are more than just tired?
74
Great question.
75
If you are very, very tired,
76
you can use the word exhausted.
77
Exhausted.
78
That sounds much stronger.
79
It is.
80
For example, after working for 12 hours, I was completely exhausted.
81
Or, the long flight to Australia left me exhausted.
82
Excellent.
83
Two other very common phrases are worn out and wiped out.
84
They both mean exhausted.
85
Worn out, like an old pair of shoes.
86
That's a great way to think about it.
87
You've used up all your energy.
88
For example, I feel completely worn out after cleaning the whole house.
89
And wiped out?
90
It's very similar.
91
It gives the picture of having all your energy erased or wiped away.
92
That long meeting completely wiped me out.
93
What about when you have absolutely zero energy left?
94
For that situation, we have a great idiom, running on empty.
95
Like a car with no gas?
96
Precisely.
97
You are continuing to go,
98
but you have no real energy to keep you going.
99
After studying all night for the exam,
100
I was running on empty.
101
Another word you used earlier was sluggish.
102
I also sometimes hear the word drained.
103
Are they similar?
104
They are.
105
Fish focuses more on the slowness.
106
Drained focuses on the feeling of having your energy taken out of you,
107
like water draining from a sink.
108
Dealing with that difficult customer left me feeling completely drained.
109
These are great!
110
It's so much better than just saying,
111
I'm tired all the time.
112
Alright, let's listen to these words in a short dialogue.
113
Imagine two colleagues, Ben and Sarah,
114
meeting at work in the morning.
115
I'll be Ben.
116
And I'll be Sarah.
117
Okay, let's go.
118
Morning, Sarah.
119
You look a bit tired.
120
Morning, Ben.
121
Yeah, I'm feeling really drained today.
122
I barely slept last night.
123
Oh, I'm sorry to hear that.
124
How are you going to get through the day?
125
Lots of coffee.
126
I feel so sluggish.
127
It's hard to even think clearly.
128
Well, I hope you feel better.
129
I'm the opposite.
130
I feel really energetic this morning.
131
That's good.
132
I wish I felt the same.
133
Okay, let's look at that short conversation.
134
Sarah used two phrases for low energy.
135
Did you hear them, Alicia?
136
Yes.
137
She said she was feeling drained and sluggish.
138
That's right.
139
And then said he was feeling...
140
Energetic.
141
Excellent.
142
Notice how these words make the conversation more interesting than just saying tired or not tired.
143
Let's do another one.
144
This time, let's imagine two friends talking at the end of a very long day.
145
I'll start.
146
Oof, what a day!
147
I am completely worn out.
148
You can say that again.
149
I am so wiped out.
150
I think I'm running on empty at this point.
151
Me too.
152
I'm going to go home and just relax.
153
No big plans for me tonight.
154
That sounds like a perfect plan.
155
I'm absolutely exhausted.
156
Okay, that conversation was full of great low-energy words.
157
It was.
158
We heard worn out, wiped out,
159
running on empty, and exhausted.
160
Four different ways to say very tired.
161
It really shows how you can express the same idea with different words to make your English sound more natural and varied.
162
Now it's time for some practice.
163
This is where you, our listener, get to speak.
164
We will say a sentence slowly and then we will repeat it at a normal natural speed.
165
Please repeat both times.
166
Ready?
167
Let's begin.
168
I am feeling very energetic today.
169
I'm feeling very energetic today.
170
she was completely worn out after the gym she was completely
171
worn out after the gym i think i am running on
172
empty i think i'm running on empty he felt on top of the world.
173
He felt on top of the world.
174
The long meeting left me completely drained.
175
The long meeting left me completely drained.
176
Excellent work.
177
Repetition is so important for building memory and confidence.
178
Now, for our last practice section,
179
Trevor and I will have a short conversation.
180
Your job is to listen carefully for the energy phrases we used today.
181
And after our conversation, we will ask you a question.
182
Okay, let's start.
183
Wow, Trevor, you seem full of beans this afternoon.
184
I am.
185
I had a very productive morning, and I feel great.
186
It's funny because yesterday I was completely wiped out by this time.
187
Really?
188
A busy day yesterday?
189
Yes, it was non-stop.
190
I barely had time for lunch.
191
I was definitely exhausted by the end of the day.
192
Okay, listeners, did you hear the phrases?
193
We use three.
194
Alicia started by saying I seemed full of beans.
195
Right.
196
A fun way to say energetic.
197
Then I said that yesterday I was wiped out and exhausted.
198
Great job if you heard them all.
199
Now here is our question for you.
200
How are you feeling right now?
201
Try to answer out loud.
202
Use one of the phrases from today's lesson.
203
You can pause the audio now and say your answer.
204
Wonderful practice, everyone.
205
We have from feeling energetic,
206
bright-eyed, and bushy-tailed, or on top of the world.
207
To feeling sluggish, drained, worn out,
208
or even running on empty.
209
The most important thing is to practice.
210
Try to use just one of these new phrases this week,
211
maybe in a conversation, or just say it to yourself.
212
That's the best way to make new words a part of your vocabulary.
213
Don't worry about making mistakes.
214
Every time you speak English,
215
you are learning and improving.
216

Durch die Anwendung dieser Schritte können Sie schnell Fortschritte in Ihrer Sprechfähigkeiten machen und sich mehr Selbstvertrauen in alltäglichen Gesprächen aneignen. Nutzen Sie diesen Ansatz regelmäßig, um Ihre Kenntnisse im Englisch Shadowing zu vertiefen.
Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?
Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
