Hello and welcome to another episode of Elephant English Podcast.
2
In today's video, we're going to be doing the part two of Would You Rather questions with my mum.
3
The first question is, would you rather live in the city or the countryside?
4
I love the countryside.
5
It's very relaxing and I love nature.
6
It's much more relaxing than being in a city.
7
I was recently in Manchester where there were a lot of people in the centre of the city
8
and in the shops and it became very stressful.
9
Have you ever lived in a city then?
10
No I haven't lived in an actual city but I've lived in a large town which was okay.
11
Yeah I live in a city at the minute and I think
12
that it's a lot nicer when you come to the countryside
13
because you feel that people aren't stressed all of the time
14
when you're in a city and you see everybody on the underground
15
or on the buses it feels like they're always rushing to go to work
16
or just to get to different places but they always seem quite stressed yes
17
and even when walking along the street to the shops
18
if you want to go to a shop that's on the
19
other side of the street it's very stressful to cross the road
20
and it just seems very busy all of the time and people don't seem as relaxed as they are in the country.
21
The next question is would you rather be too hot or too cold?
22
I would rather be cold because you can always add layers of clothing
23
or you can have a fire or heating in your house to become warm again
24
but when you're too hot there's very little
25
that you can do to cool yourself down yeah I prefer to be too cold as well
26
but if you ask me this question in the winter I might say I prefer to be too hot
27
because at the moment we can't really remember what being cold is
28
yes that's true at the moment it's been very hot
29
and I can't imagine even putting on a jumper or a coat
30
so i think it depends what season you're in at the
31
time for this question the next question is would you rather be able to talk with animals
32
or speak all foreign languages i think i would rather be able to speak to animals
33
because i like animals a lot and i think
34
that it would be very interesting to find out their opinions
35
of how they're living maybe they're happy in their life
36
or maybe they're really unhappy i think with a dog though you can tell
37
if they're happy or not and
38
when the cat is meowing at you you kind of know
39
what she's saying she's saying i'm hungry i'm hungry yes
40
but what about a rabbit or a giraffe they don't say anything at all
41
so it would be interesting to have their perspective on life
42
the next question is would you rather eat a rat
43
or a spider it would depend if it was cooked
44
or raw if it was alive or dead it really depends on the condition of the creature
45
even though I'm vegetarian I think I would choose to eat the rat
46
if it was cooked well even though you're vegetarian a spider
47
is meat as well it would be considered meat wouldn't it i suppose
48
so i've never thought of a spider being meat yeah it's just horrible
49
but a rat is definitely meat right okay the next question is would you rather have no water or no electricity?
50
I think I'd rather have no electricity because you can live without electricity.
51
It wouldn't be easy initially.
52
I have lived one weekend without water coming from the taps and it was very difficult to do anything at all.
53
But you don't need electricity to survive all the time you
54
can use candles for light you can just eat sandwiches
55
so it's not so crucial it's not as important as water yeah I agree I think
56
when you haven't got water you can't really do anything you
57
can't cook you can't wash the dishes you can't go to toilet yeah
58
and you just feel dirty all the time even though you
59
aren't you start thinking of the things you can't do
60
because of the lack of water whereas
61
if you haven't got electricity for a few hours you can soon find something to do.
62
The final question is would you rather listen to noisy traffic or terrible music?
63
I think I would rather listen to noisy traffic
64
because you soon get used to the noise of of traffic yeah
65
because you used to live near an airport didn't you
66
and you soon get used to the planes going by
67
and you don't really notice them yes there's the same with
68
if you live near a motorway in the end it becomes background noise
69
and the same with the airplanes we didn't notice the airplane noise whereas with music
70
if you don't like that type of music it can be very annoying
71
so in today's video we've done would you rather questions with
72
my mum there will be a part three of these questions
73

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
