Hello, everyone, and welcome back to Listen to English podcast.

This podcast is for B1 learners.
3
Today's topic is something we all experience every single day, emotions and feelings.
4
Sometimes we feel happy, sometimes sad, sometimes worried, and sometimes we feel many emotions at the same time.
5
In this episode, we'll listen to a conversation between two friends who talk about their feelings in different situations.
6
After that, we'll learn some useful vocabulary and expressions.
7
Let's get started.
8
Hey, Tom.
9
You look a bit serious today.
10
Are you okay?
11
Hmm.
12
Yes and no. It's been a strange week.
13
Honestly, I've been feeling a mix of emotions.
14
A mix of emotions?
15
Tell me more.
16
Well, on Monday, I had a job interview.
17
At first, I was really nervous.
18
My hands were shaking, and I couldn't stop thinking about what the interviewer might ask.
19
But once the interview started, I began to feel more confident.
20
Actually, I think it went really well, so I felt hopeful afterwards.
21
That's great.
22
Feeling nervous before an interview is totally normal.
23
Yeah, I know.
24
But then on Tuesday, something different happened.
25
One of my best friends told me she's moving to another city.
26
I felt sad and a little bit empty because we've known each other for years.
27
At the same time, I also felt proud of her because she got an amazing new job.
28
So it was happiness for her, but sadness for me.
29
Wow, that really is mixed emotions.
30
Exactly.
31
And then yesterday, I went to the gym, and after the workout, I felt so energetic and cheerful.
32
It was like my body was tired, but my mind felt really positive.
33
That's interesting.
34
You had three completely different feelings in just a few days.
35
Nervous, sad, and cheerful.
36
Right.
37
And the thing is, emotions can change so fast.
38
Sometimes in the same day, I feel anxious in the morning, but calm and relaxed in the evening.
39
I understand.
40
For me, last week was stressful.
41
At work, my manager gave me a lot of new tasks, and I felt overwhelmed.
42
I tried to stay focused, but sometimes I just wanted to close my laptop and forget about everything.
43
Oh, yes.
44
I know that feeling.
45
But you know what helped?
46
On Friday, my colleague surprised me with a small birthday party.
47
I didn't expect it, and I suddenly felt so grateful and happy.
48
It changed my whole day.
49
That's wonderful.
50
Gratitude is such a powerful feeling.
51
When you realize how much people care about you, everything feels lighter.
52
Yes, exactly.
53
Did you notice how
54
Tom and Lisa described different emotions?
55

Gramática en este vídeo
Las estructuras que más usa el hablante, con las palabras exactas del vídeo:
| Estructura | En el vídeo |
|---|---|
| Present perfect have/has + participio pasado — una acción pasada que sigue importando ahora | It's been · we've known |
| Present continuous am/is/are + -ing — algo que ocurre ahora o en estos días | she's moving · is missing |
| Futuro con “will” will + verbo — una decisión, una promesa o una predicción | we'll listen · we'll learn |
Pronunciación a tener en cuenta
El hablante usa 7 contracciones y formas reducidas, como we'll, couldn't, didn't. Dilas en su forma corta, tal como las oyes.
- Los sonidos de “sh” y “zh”: emotion /ɪˈməʊ.ʃən/, shake /ˈʃeɪk/, examination /ɪɡˌzæm.ɪˈneɪ.ʃən/, anxious /ˈæŋkʃəs/
- Palabras largas — cuida el acento: vocabulary /vəˈkæb.jə.lə.ɹi/, examination /ɪɡˌzæm.ɪˈneɪ.ʃən/, energetic /ˌɛn.əɹˈdʒɛt.ɪk/
Sonidos difíciles para hispanohablantes:
- /v/ — no es /b/: los dientes tocan el labio inferior: vocabulary /vəˈkæb.jə.lə.ɹi/, interviewer /ˈɪntɚvjuɚ/, overwhelm /ˌoʊ.vɚˈwɛlm/
- /z/ — sonora, no /s/: afterwards /ˈæf.tɚ.wɚdz/, examination /ɪɡˌzæm.ɪˈneɪ.ʃən/
- /h/ — una aspiración suave, no la “j”: hopeful /ˈhoʊpfl̩/, happiness /ˈhæpinɪs/
Cómo practicar con este vídeo
- Escucha el vídeo entero una vez sin hablar y anota las palabras que no conoces.
- Haz shadowing frase por frase a velocidad normal, repitiendo cada una hasta que tu ritmo coincida con el del hablante.
- Grábate y compara con el original, prestando atención a palabras como emotion, cheerful, grateful.
¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
