1
If you can understand the whole of this video,
2
your English is very strong.
3
Today, I am going to take you to one of the most beautiful and the most famous Cotswold villages.
4
Like before, there will be no script and no deliberate slow speaking,
5
just you and me spending the day together.
6
Are you ready?
7
Let's go.
8
I am taking you to a gem in the Cotswolds called Borton on the Water
9
and it is known as the Venice of the Cotswolds so you'll have to see what you think of it.
10
It's not quite as nice a day as I would have wanted,
11
it's not sunny but maybe that makes for a more authentic British experience
12
because as I have mentioned before we do get a lot of grey.
13
hopefully it won't rain fingers crossed
14
and I thought you might want to see some more of
15
the typical British countryside in springtime it's currently mid-April although this might come out in a few weeks time
16
so you can see that luminous green I was talking about more bluebells
17
and the typical narrow lanes of the countryside and we are approaching Borton on the water oh pretty cottage
18
and here we are the Venice of the Cotswolds as they call it exciting I can't wait to show you
19
here we are in Borton on the water as I said it's known as the Venice of the Cotswolds
20
and I called it a gem you can't really call it a hidden gem anymore
21
because it has been put on the map as we say in
22
that it has been discovered and especially in summer it gets packed
23
and on a nice day it is absolutely heaving with tourists that's a good british expression to be absolutely heaving
24
but you can understand why
25
when you come here obviously it's called the venice of the cotswolds
26
because of the beautiful river running through it
27
and the lovely quaint bridges another A very good word to describe it is picturesque.
28
It's the sort of place you would see on a postcard
29
so we might call it postcard pretty but picturesque would be a really good adjective to describe this village.
30
And it is lovely.
31
I have to say you can find many other beautiful Cotswold villages
32
that haven't been discovered yet so maybe one day I will take you to those two
33
and show you those secrets first let me take you for a walk through the village
34
and of course grab a coffee one thing that is very distinctive
35
and born on the water that I love is
36
that it has a lot of willow trees those are these trees here hanging over the water
37
and it makes it really atmospheric it's a very atmospheric place It's better when it's sunny,
38
but the other thing, the Cotswolds stone is really famous here.
39
It has a warm hue,
40
that kind of honey-colored stone.
41
That's a very distinctive feature of the Cotswolds.
42
In this village, there are so many lovely little shops and cafes.
43
I've used that word picturesque because it really is.
44
It's one of probably the most picturesque villages you can find here,
45
and it's just so quintessentially English nestled in the heart of the Cotswolds.
46
I hope you enjoy this glimpse into this lovely village.
47
It's a shame they have some sort of green netting up,
48
so it's not quite as picturesque as normal.
49
And there's a war memorial,
50
like they have in many villages,
51
to commemorate the First World War.
52
As I said, lots of tourists.
53
Actually, there are fewer today.
54
Normally, there are a lot more.
55
And Borton is distinctive for these low stone bridges.
56
There are about five or six of them that you have probably seen already and noticed.
57
Lots of Cotswold themed shops.
58
A Cotswold candle makers there, love it.
59
And a Cotswold perfumery.
60
Another good word to describe this village is idyllic.
61
It's a very idyllic village.
62
The river is called the River Windrush, and it's very popular.
63
Dogs wanting to swim in it.
64
Lots of ducks always in it as well,
65
very popular with the animals.
66
In summer people also just dip their feet in or do some paddling,
67
that's a good verb.
68
Yes and there's another one of the Lowstone bridges I mentioned, lots of those.
69
There's a pub up over here at Kingsbridge Inn.
70
Speaking of which though, I'm starting to get a bit Peckish.
71
I'm starting to get a bit peckish,
72
which means I'm a bit hungry.
73
So I think it might be time to grab a bite to eat and this restaurant looks lovely, doesn't it?
74
Come inside with me now and see me order.
75
Please could I get the poached eggs and then to drink the sparkling elder pappies?
76
Thank you.
77
Sorry, I forgot to actually show you my meal, but it was delicious.
78
As I said, it's not quite as crowded as it normally is.
79
I suppose it's quite a windy and grey day,
80
but I used to come a lot here when I was a child,
81
and it was a lot less crowded back then.
82
And one of the main attractions is this little model village,
83
which is very sweet and quaint,
84
and I will take you to see it now.
85
Isn't it sweet?
86
Isn't it sweet?
87
Tell me, have you got anything like this near you?
88
I would love to know.
89
And I shouldn't have been worried because the sun has come out just for you.
90
There we go.
91
Just so that you can see this lovely little model village.
92
And the model is surprisingly accurate.
93
The river Windrush, the low stone bridges, the motor museum.
94
It's all true to life.
95
This brings back lots of memories of childhood and makes me very nostalgic.
96
That's a good word, nostalgic.
97
Because it reminds me of when I used to come here when I was little and I used to love it.
98
I suppose there's something about miniature things isn't there?
99
Mini things.
100
That's why children love dolls' houses and that's why this is just quite special.
101
Lots of little bridges and trees.
102
It's just exciting.
103
Beautiful model village of a beautiful Cotswold town.
104
Come and show you the inside.
105
As I said, we used to come here a lot
106
when I was a child
107
and it was the first time I really started understand the concept of infinity
108
because you have a model village within a model village
109
and then there's a model village in there
110
so i remember thinking as a child first grappling with the concept of infinity
111
because you have the infinite regression of a model village within a model village within a model village
112
and then i just thought but when does it end
113
if every model village has a model village in it
114
when does it stop it's funny to remember how your mind works as a child.
115
You've got the model village and the model village in the model village.
116
And I love the details right down to the music playing,
117
to the shop fronts, you can see all the mini shops there.
118
You've got a post office and the Victorian Christmas shop.
119
I'll show you the real life one of that.
120
What do you think?
121
Does this make you want to come and visit Boughton on the Water?
122
and this is fun this is a periscope so it's got angled mirrors
123
so that you can see it at street level come
124
and have a look with me
125
and we can pretend we are small enough to fit in the model village
126
and you can see the real size of people there okay
127
and now i am back in the car
128
and on my way home i hope you enjoyed that and that it made you feel more comfortable with your english
129
because if you understood most of it,
130
then as I said, well done because this is real everyday English.
131
We are lucky because I don't know if you can hear that,
132
but it is now raining.
133
So we had perfect timing with the weather and the rain.
134
Let me know if you enjoyed this because I would love to do it again.
135
Maybe take you to a smaller Cotswold village,
136
a hidden gem next time.
137
Take care.
138
Thank you for joining me and I'll see you in the next one.
139
Bye.
140
Thank you.

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.
