1
You got a passport?
2
No, I don't even have a driver's license.
3
You ever been to Germany?
4
No. Oh, you'll love it.
5
I can't go to Germany.
6
Why?
7
I got homework.
8
I'm gonna pretend you didn't say that.
9
I'm being serious.
10
I can't just drop out of school.
11
Might be a little dangerous.
12
Better tell Aunt Haughty.
13
I'm taking you to...
14
Don't tell Aunt May.
15
Alright, Spider -Man.
16
Hey Global Citizen, I'm Xenia, your RealLife English Fluency Coach.
17
I just saw Spider -Man Brand New Day with my daughter Mira
18
and I've been itching to or eager to create a lesson with Spider -Man for you all.
19
I thought it would be fun to go back and see Tom Holland's debut as Spider -Man in Captain America Civil War.
20
Throughout the Avengers movies, Tony Stark, Iron Man, and Peter Parker, Spider -Man, have incomparable chemistry.
21
Tony is a mentor, but we might also say he's a father figure for Peter.
22
Okay, it's not working out.
23
I'm going to need the suit back.
24
I'm nothing without this suit.
25
If you're nothing without this suit, then you shouldn't have it.
26
Okay?
27
Gotta sound like my dad.
28
A father figure is someone who isn't your actual father, but who takes on this role in your life,
29
offering guidance, support, and care the way a dad would.
30
By the way, I'm an English learner just like you, and I find that when I learn new expressions like itching to or father figure,
31
the best way to remember them is to use them right away.
32
I'd like to invite you to join the Real Life Speaking Club, where you can speak English with global citizens from all over the world
33
and practice what you're learning with our video lessons in Real Conversations.
34
It's free to join with the link below or by searching for Real Life English in your App Store.
35
I'll tell you more about it in a little bit.
36
For now, let's watch the moment where Tony and Peter see each other for the very first time.
37
Hey, I'm Peter.
38
Tony.
39
What are you doing here?
40
It's about time we met.
41
You've been getting my emails right?
42
Yeah.
43
Yeah.
44
Regarding the...
45
You didn't even tell me about the grant.
46
About the grant?
47
The September Foundation.
48
Right.
49
Yeah.
50
Remember when you applied?
51
Yeah.
52
I approved.
53
So now we're in business.
54
You didn't tell me anything.
55
What's up with that?
56
You're keeping secrets from me now?
57
Well, I just know how much you love surprises, so I thought I would let you know.
58
Anyway, what did I apply for?
59
That's why I'm here to hash it out.
60
Okay, hash it out.
61
Okay.
62
Can I have five minutes with him?
63
Sure.
64
So we see the moment Peter meets Tony.
65
He feels pretty starstruck.
66
This is a word we use to say someone looks shocked when they see a star or famous person.
67
I mean, I know if I saw Brad Pitt here in my city, I would feel completely starstruck.
68
And Tony tells a little white lie about why he's here in Peter's living room with his Aunt May.
69
Now, regarding is just a fancier way of saying about or concerning.
70
You'll hear it a lot in emails, meetings, or formal conversations.
71
Peter is a bit of a nerd and an exceptional student, so this kind of formal language suits him.
72
Check out these examples.
73
Samuel Nurko up in Boston regarding my daughter Annabelle Beam.
74
I was hoping I could talk to Dr. Kreitz for a few minutes, please.
75
You didn't even tell me about the grant.
76
It's about the grant.
77
The September Foundation.
78
Right.
79
What's this grant Tony is supposedly there for?
80
A grant is a sum of money given to someone, usually by an organization, government, or foundation to help fund a project.
81
The cool part is, you don't have to pay it back.
82
Students apply for grants to help pay for university, and scientists apply for grants to fund research.
83
Tony continues with this expression.
84
Yeah, remember when you applied?
85
Yeah.
86
I approved.
87
So now we're in business.
88
When you say, now we're in business, you're saying that things are officially moving forward.
89
Tony uses it pretty literally because of this grant, Peter is in business with Stark Foundation.
90
However, it doesn't have to be about an actual business.
91
You could use it anytime a plan finally comes together.
92
Like, imagine you've been trying to fix your Wi -Fi for an hour, and it finally connects.
93
You could say, there we go, now we're in business.
94
I know, the first time I had a fluent conversation in English, I felt so proud to see all my effort come together,
95
that I could have said, now we're in business.
96
I finally could use everything I spent so long studying.
97
So if you've ever felt like you know a lot of words, you can't understand a lot of English, but you can't yet speak English confidently and naturally,
98
I know how you feel.
99
I also know that what's missing for you is probably real conversation practice.
100
Not just theory, but actually talking, using your English with real people.
101
We built a place for exactly that inside the RealLife app.
102
A place where you don't just learn English, you live it.
103
Our speaking club.
104
In the speaking club every single day you get a new fascinating topic
105
that you can discuss with people from all around the world in real conversations and become more fluent.
106
This really is the best way to go from intermediate learner to advanced English speaker.
107
And if you're nervous about speaking, you can practice the questions with your AI coach first and then jump into your first conversation.
108
Again, it's completely free to join, so start your adventure now
109
and make new friends by searching for RealLife English in your app store or clicking the link below.
110
Now in this next line, let's see example of connected speech this is how natives cut, reduce and link their words when speaking fluently.
111
You didn't tell me anything what's up with that?
112
Since with ends with th and
113
that begins with th natives make it smoother by just pronouncing one of them slightly stretching the th sound with
114
that with that and what's and up combine to sound like one word what's up Let's put it all together.
115
What's up with that?
116
And earlier we heard another example from Peter.
117
What are you doing here?
118
So we hear questions starting with what are you all the time?
119
What are you looking for?
120
What are you doing this weekend?
121
What are you studying?
122
When we have a T between two vowel sounds in American English, they turn into a soft D sound, like in butter or water.
123
And these three little words, what are you, will predictably morph the same.
124
What are you?
125
What are you?
126
Also, he dropped the G in doing.
127
So, altogether, that sounds like what are you doing here?
128
What are you doing here?
129
Finally, in our next scene, we'll hear an example from Tony.
130
Oh, what do we have here?
131
We use this question to show surprise at something we've just seen.
132
What and do morph into what -a and connect to we.
133
What are we?
134
What do we have here?
135
You need a lot of practice to improve your speaking, so listen to those three questions again and repeat.
136
You didn't tell me anything, what's up with that?
137
What are you, what are you, what are you doing here?
138
What are you doing here?
139
Oh, what do we have here?
140
Oh, what do we have here?
141
Next, we hear a fantastic phrasal verb from Tony.
142
Anyway, what did I apply for?
143
That's what I'm here to hash out.
144
Okay, hash it out, okay.
145
To hash out something means to discuss it in detail until you reach an agreement or a decision.
146
It's often used for things that are a little complicated.
147
Listen to these examples.
148
We need to meet with the lawyers to hash out the final points of the deal.
149
Absolutely.
150
Now let's watch the next clip.
151
Oh, what do we have here?
152
Retro -tech, huh?
153
Thrift store?
154
Sub -Ecean Army?
155
The garbage actually.
156
You're a dumpster diver.
157
Yeah, I was...
158
Anyway, look, I'm...
159
I definitely did not apply for your grant.
160
Nuh -uh.
161
Me first.
162
Okay.
163
Quick question of the rhetorical variety.
164
That's you, right?
165
Um, no. What do you mean?
166
Yeah.
167
Look at you go.
168
Wow, nice catch.
169
3 ,000 pounds, 40 miles an hour.
170
It's not easy.
171
You got mad skills.
172
That's all on YouTube, though, right?
173
I mean, that's where you found it.
174
Because you know that's all fake.
175
It's all done on the computer.
176
Mm -hmm.
177
I.. it's like that video.
178
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
179
Oh, you mean like those UFOs over Phoenix?
180
Hey!
181
What have we?
182
Uh, so... So...
183
You're the spider -ling.
184
Crime -fighting spider.
185
You're Spider -boy? So...
186
Spider -man.
187
Not in that onesie or not?
188
It's not a onesie.
189
I can't believe this.
190
I was actually having a really good day today.
191
You know, I must just start...
192
Didn't miss my train.
193
This perfectly good DVD player was just sitting there and...
194
Algebra test.
195
Nailed it. Who else knows?
196
Anybody?
197
Nobody.
198
Not even your unusually attractive aunt?
199
No. No, no, no, no. If she knew, she would freak out.
200
And when she freaks out, I freak out.
201
You know what I think is really cool?
202
This webbing.
203
Tensile strength is off the charts.
204
Who manufactured that?
205
I did.
206
You're in dire need of an upgrade.
207
Why are you doing this?
208
I gotta know, what's your MO?
209
What gets you out of that twin bed in the morning?
210
Because I've been me my whole life, and I've had these powers for six months.
211
Mm -hmm.
212
Look, when you can do the things that I can, But you don't.
213
And then the bad things happen.
214
They happen because of you.
215
So you want to look out for the little guy, you want to do your part, make the world a better place, all that, right?
216
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
217
Just looking out for the little guy.
218
That's what it is.
219
So Tony instantly takes a liking to Peter when he sees that he also has an affinity, or natural liking, for technology.
220
Oh, what do we have here?
221
Retrotech, huh?
222
Drift store?
223
Salvation Army?
224
The garbage actually.
225
You're a dumpster diver.
226
Yeah, I was… A dumpster diver is someone who goes through
227
the trash looking for stuff that's still useful like old electronics furniture
228
or even food it might sound gross
229
but plenty of people do it to save money
230
or to be more eco -friendly tony's teasing peter here
231
because he built his gadgets out of stuff he found in
232
the garbage all right now pay close attention to this line because i'm gonna a quiz you on it.
233
Me first.
234
Quick question of the rhetorical variety.
235
That's you, right?
236
What is a rhetorical question?
237
A question that makes someone feel uncomfortable?
238
A question with more than one correct answer?
239
Or a question you ask, but don't expect an answer to?
240
Right, a rhetorical question is one that's asked just to make a point, not because you actually want a reply.
241
Tony already knows the answer, he's just making Peter a little uncomfortable.
242
Check out these examples.
243
So what do I do?
244
Risk the lives of my pilots and perhaps the success of this mission or risk my career by appointing you team leader.
245
Sir, I think the Admiral's asking a rhetorical question, Captain.
246
Boom!
247
Your card is gone.
248
But wait, where'd it go?
249
Is that a rhetorical question or am I supposed to answer it?
250
Check the box, dummy.
251
And there is a nice piece of connected speech we can practice here too.
252
Um, no. What do you mean?
253
When U is preceded by a word ending in T, oftentimes they morph into a CH sound.
254
So we hear, look at you, look at you go.
255
Listen to Tony again and repeat.
256
Look at you go.
257
Tony is genuinely impressed by Peter's abilities and he uses some slang here.
258
Wow, nice catch.
259
3 ,000 pounds, 40 miles an hour.
260
It's not easy.
261
He's got mad skills.
262
Mad skills is a slang experience that means exceptional, extraordinary or impressive talent.
263
The word mad here doesn't mean angry, here it means crazy or intense.
264
Here are a couple more examples of how natives use it.
265
Did my mom kick your butt?
266
She did.
267
She has mad skills.
268
Whoa.
269
This is mad trippy.
270
We are gonna have mad fun.
271
Now, this part where Tony is guessing Peter's superhero name made me laugh.
272
So, you're the spiderling.
273
Crime -fighting spider.
274
You're spider boy?
275
Spider -man.
276
Not in that onesie or not.
277
These are onesies.
278
Tony is making fun of Peter's homemade Spider -man suit by comparing it to pajamas.
279
Then Peter responds with...
280
It's not a onesie.
281
I can't believe this, I was actually having a really good day today, you know, I must start.
282
Didn't miss my train, this perfectly good DVD player was just sitting there and...
283
Algebra test.
284
Nailed it.
285
If you nail it, you do something perfectly.
286
You could nail a test, nail a presentation, nail a dance move.
287
Listen to this example.
288
Ha!
289
Ha!
290
Look what you did!
291
Well, you nailed it, didn't you?
292
And Peter used another great phrasal verb here.
293
Who else knows?
294
Anybody?
295
Nobody.
296
Not even your unusually attractive aunt?
297
No. No, no, no, no. If she knew, she would freak out.
298
And when she freaks out, I freak out.
299
What does freak out mean?
300
To become extremely surprised, worried or upset.
301
To act in a strange way or to live somewhere very quickly.
302
Right, so freak out means to react in a very emotional way.
303
It could be positive, like how you might freak out when your favorite musician walks on stage,
304
or negative, like how most people freak out if they get in the shower and see a giant spider.
305
Here's another example.
306
Why would you not tell me that you've been in contact with Gamora?
307
Because I didn't want you to get freaked out.
308
Freaked out?
309
Like that.
310
Tony continues expressing how impressed he is.
311
You know what I think is really cool?
312
This webbing.
313
The tensile strength is off the charts.
314
Now, tensile strength is not a common word.
315
I had to look it up.
316
It basically refers to materials resistance and Tony says it is off the charts.
317
That means it's so far beyond the normal range that it doesn't even fit on the chart anymore.
318
Basically, extremely high or impressive.
319
We might say that Adele's singing abilities are off the charts.
320
Or like here.
321
Miles's intelligence is off the charts.
322
He's off the charts in math.
323
But Tony still sees issues with Peter Spider's man suit.
324
You're in dire need of an upgrade.
325
If you are in dire need of something, it means you desperately need it.
326
You might say you're in dire need of a vacation after a stressful few weeks at work.
327
Of course, Peter doesn't need to use his powers to help people.
328
It's a lot of effort, right?
329
That's why Tony asks this.
330
MO stands for modus operandi, a Latin phrase that basically means someone's usual way of doing things.
331
It could be their method or their motivation.
332
You'll hear this a lot in crime shows where detectives talk about a criminal's MO or usual way of committing a crime.
333
Check out these examples.
334
And Tony uses a nice expression to describe this.
335
The little guy refers to ordinary,
336
everyday people, especially those who don't have power, money or influence and might get taken advantage of.
337
It's the kind of thing you might hear a politician say
338
when they want to sound like they care about everyday citizens instead of big corporations.
339
Now let's go back to that very first clip we watched which actually is the end of the scene.
340
Got a passport?
341
No, I don't even have a driver's license.
342
You ever been to Germany?
343
A driver's license or driving license is the official document that allows you to legally drive a car.
344
This just emphasizes that Peter is still a kid.
345
And let's look at some interesting pronunciation and grammar.
346
Got a passport.
347
I bet you wouldn't have caught that without the subtitles.
348
Tony cuts off the T in GOT at the back of the throat and connects it to A.
349
So GOT turns into GOT, GOT, and connecting to A we have GOT, GOT.
350
And then the U is either reduced so
351
that we can barely hear it or he dropped it altogether
352
so the question sounds like got a passport got a
353
passport got a passport got a passport got a passport
354
and in school you probably learned the correct structure is have you got a passport
355
or do you have a passport however natives drop do you
356
and have you all the time in casual questions like this
357
we heard peter do the same a bit later i can't go to germany why i got homework
358
so instead of i've got homework
359
or i have homework he just says a quick i got
360
homework i recommend you try to catch how natives are flexible with grammar anytime you are watching a tv series
361
or a movie now let's learn another useful phrasal verb I'm gonna pretend you didn't say that.
362
I'm being serious.
363
I can't just drop out of school.
364
To drop out of school means to quit before finishing your studies, without graduating, high school or university.
365
For example, plenty of famous entrepreneurs like Bill Gates or Mark Zuckerberg dropped out of college to pursue their companies.
366
Okay, so we'll wrap up with a funny line from Tony.
367
Might be a little dangerous, better tell Aunt Hottie I'm taking her in the field field.
368
A hottie is a slang word for someone who's very attractive.
369
Tony's obviously teasing Peter here by calling his aunt a hottie instead of using her real name.
370
And a field trip is an educational outing organized by a school, like a class visiting a museum or a zoo.
371
Tony's joking that he's basically taking Peter on a field trip, except this one involves fighting alongside the Avengers instead of looking at dinosaur bones.
372
You've done great today, but you're not done yet.
373
In fact, this is the most important part of the whole lesson.
374
We'll watch the scenes again, this time without subtitles, and answer some quiz questions.
375
I'm sure you'll nail it!
376
Oh, Mr. Parker.
377
Um...
378
What?
379
What are you doing?
380
Hey, I'm Peter.
381
Tony.
382
What are you doing here?
383
It's about time we met.
384
You've been getting my emails right.
385
Yeah.
386
Yeah.
387
Regarding the...
388
You didn't even tell me about the grant.
389
What does regarding mean?
390
Instead of, about, or because of?
391
If you're starting a new project at work, you could ask your colleague to hmmm the details with you.
392
You're asking to hash out, freak out, or drop out the details.
393
I definitely did not apply for your grant.
394
Uh -uh, me first.
395
Okay.
396
Quick question of the rhetorical variety.
397
That's you, right?
398
Um, no. What do you mean?
399
Look at you go.
400
Wow, nice catch.
401
3 ,000 pounds, 40 miles an hour.
402
It's not easy.
403
You got mad skills.
404
That's all on YouTube though, right?
405
I mean, that's where you found it.
406
Because you know that's all fake.
407
It's all done on the computer.
408
Mm -hmm.
409
I.. it's like that video.
410
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
411
Oh, you mean like those UFOs over Phoenix?
412
Hey!
413
What have we?
414
Ah, sorry. So, you're the spiderling.
415
Crime fighting spider.
416
You're Spider Boy?
417
Yeah.
418
Spiderman.
419
Not in that onesie or not.
420
Which of these is a onesie?
421
It's not a onesie.
422
I can't believe this, I was actually having a really good day today, you know, it was just a start.
423
Didn't miss my train, this perfectly good DVD player was just sitting there and algebra test.
424
Nailed it. Who else knows?
425
Anybody?
426
Nobody.
427
If you're in dire need of something, you would like to have it eventually,
428
urgently need it or have too much of it. But you don't.
429
And then the bad things happen.
430
They happen because of you.
431
So you want to look out for the little guy, you want to do your part, make the world a better place, all that, right?
432
Yeah, yeah, yeah, just looking out for the little guy.
433
That's what it is.
434
Got a passport?
435
No. What do we call the official document that gives you legal permission to drive a car?
436
Driver's license or driving license?
437
Don't tell that me.
438
Alright, Spider -Man.
439
Give me this.
440
Sorry, I'll get there.
441
Oh yeah, I hope you had as much fun as I did learning English with Spider -Man today.
442
And if it's your goal to understand fast speaking natives without getting lost, without missing the jokes, and without subtitles,
443
we help you do it here on Learn English with TV series every week with two new lessons with your favorite movies,
444

¿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.
