1
Hello everyone!
2
Welcome to a new episode of Bo's Slow English.
3
In today's episode, we are going to drive around Los Angeles.
4
We are on our way to our friend's house and we will be eating Taiwanese food because he is Taiwanese.
5
And I actually don't think I've ever tried Taiwanese food,
6
so I'm very much looking forward to tasting this meal.
7
me and I'm going to give him a tutorial on how to use the camera.
8
Last time we drove to his house, I filmed it and we got lost.
9
several times.
10
This time I confirmed the directions with him, so hopefully we will not get lost.
11
It is 73 degrees Fahrenheit,
12
which is a little bit crazy considering it is February 1st. It is still winter time.
13
I will describe my surroundings.
14
Oh, watch out.
15
This here on the left side of our car is called a median and
16
Within the median there are some trees planted a median separates oncoming traffic
17
That is a big crane We are driving under the freeway an area called Westwood.
18
UCLA or University of California Los Angeles is located in Westwood.
19
The metro station is getting built out here.
20
It will run through Westwood.
21
In Los Angeles There are many billboards Although I would call that a TV advertisements
22
poster Not a billboard.
23
That over there where the Uber ad is.
24
That is a billboard.
25
There's a lot of construction Thank you in the middle of the road,
26
which is causing a traffic jam.
27
This car is trying to merge into our lane.
28
I'm not sure why there's always construction in Westwood.
29
I would consider this inconvenient because it is near the freeway
30
and the traffic going onto the freeway and getting off of the freeway is already pretty bad.
31
So when you add this construction near the freeway,
32
It will Add to The Traffic Jam.
33
What they're doing right now is they are building the metro or the subway.
34
I wonder how long this will take.
35
There are many banks in Westwood, including Wells Fargo and Chase.
36
Do you have Wells Fargo and Chase in your country?
37
I'm guessing the answer is no. The lane all the way to the right is the bus lane.
38
Some people will speed down the bus lane to try and avoid traffic.
39
That is illegal.
40
And if a police officer sees you, you may get ticketed.
41
has a lot of high -rise condominiums or condos.
42
And if we go a little bit north of Westwood,
43
there are large single -family homes.
44
I believe that area is called Holmby Hills.
45
I always thought pronouncing the word "homebee" was a little bit weird.
46
Try pronouncing it.
47
Homebee.
48
Homebee.
49
Apparently, a lot of movie stars live in Westwood.
50
Probably because...
51
They like the high -rise condos and it is pretty central to the entertainment area of Los Angeles.
52
We are driving...
53
East towards Beverly Hills, my husband is going to get his hair cut.
54
And while he gets his hair cut,
55
I will wander around aimlessly to try and get some good content for you.
56
a clear direction or destination of where you will be going.
57
We are entering the heart of Beverly Hills.
58
When you hear someone say it's the heart of a city,
59
It means where everything is happening and busy and It's.. basically the center of the city.
60
There are many restaurants on the street as well as retail stores.
61
I just walked inside a very popular grocery store.
62
It is poppin in here, which means it's really busy.
63
It's a little overwhelming how busy it is.
64
I wanted to show you a few chicken wontons from the hot food bar.
65
I'm feeling like I need a snack before my lunch.
66
I'm currently in the pasta aisle.
67
These are all the different types of pastas.
68
And here's the pasta sauce as well as pizza sauce.
69
There are all these different Asian flavored or condiments I should say such as fish sauce tamari which is like soy sauce
70
teriyaki sauce an assortment of hot sauce mayonnaise or mayo mustard pickles
71
and olives or jarred olives.
72
Different types of oils, sesame oil, avocado oil, sunflower oil.
73
This is the dairy section.
74
So we have yogurt, milk, ice cream, popsicles,
75
frozen vegetables here's the pet food section household
76
supplies hi sorry toilet paper paper towels
77
plastic sandwich bags trash bags waffles pancakes cheese
78
beef jerky, coconut water.
79
I'm going to go stand in line so I can buy these chicken wontons and eat my snack.
80
We are now heading to our friend's house.
81
Let me show you some of the houses here in Beverly Hills.
82
It's really fancy.
83
expensive or rich.
84
Actually these are not the biggest houses that I've seen in Beverly Hills but they are still decently sized.
85
Wow look at this massive It's a monstrosity.
86
It's huge.
87
Wow, look at that house.
88
It's crazy.
89
I have a question.
90
Tell us about a fun memory that you had growing up in Los Angeles.
91
One of the fun memories MR. In Los Angeles is when we used to come out to Hollywood.
92
when my friends and I just started driving and we had our driver's license,
93
we would come out to Hollywood to this place called Carney's. which is a...
94
old train caboose that was converted to a restaurant and we would drive,
95
we would take the freeway there, Eat get our burgers and fries and then take sunset all the way to the beach.
96
and then hang out.
97
This is at night, by the way.
98
and we'd hang out.
99
- Thank you.
100
Park by the water.
101
hang out for a minute and then we'd head back on Sunset Boulevard all the way back to Los Angeles.
102
Oh nice.
103
This is a beautiful park here.
104
We should come back here with Nari.
105
Oh it's a fire station.
106
I don't think we've been here with Nari.
107
The only time I've driven up this road is to see Jerry.
108
Is to go up to Jerry's house which is what we're doing right now.
109
Where I grew up, it was a bad neighborhood,
110
but my family had us all focused on sports.
111
So we were able to spend our free time going to practice
112
and playing sports where some of the other kids in the community kind of went a different route.
113
from growing up in a rougher neighborhood.
114
- Always be protective of yourself and your friends and family.
115
In the rough neighborhood, we all had each other's back.
116
So it wasn't like you walked down the street and you had to be worried about anything.
117
But the adjacent neighborhoods were the neighborhoods you'd have to worry about.
118
So I was raised to never visit those neighborhoods,
119
where some of my friends weren't taught not to go visit those neighborhoods and sometimes bad things would happen.
120
What does it mean when you say,
121
You have each other's backs Having someone's back means you're looking out for them and you're taking care of them.
122
You are very protective of your friends or your family.
123
That's having someone's back.
124
Are you familiar with the term street smarts?
125
Yeah, I think the streets...
126
teach you to not be gullible, and to kind of question people's motives.
127
and again to watch your back and watch the back of others so you're always hyper vigilant and
128
i guess you're just not gullible you're very alert at what's going on around you what is the definition of gullible
129
gullible i would say is clueless the famous malholand drive We're making a sharp right turn onto Mulholland Drive.
130
Why is Mulholland Drive famous?
131
I think this is where James Dean crashed his car.
132
canyons, houses up on the hill like these.
133
It's a pretty clear day today.
134
Wow, look at that guy cycling up this hill.
135
That's tricky.
136
How difficult is this ride on a bike?
137
I was just thinking about is this road bike friendly?
138
I don't think it is.
139
I think he's taking a risk, but this is difficult.
140
Yay!
141
We did not get lost this time. Where did we?
142
Is this it?
143
Okay.
144
It's a really remote residential street.
145
I feel like he lives in a tree house.
146
His house is on stilts.
147
Oh, this is his house.
148
I love this house.
149
Wait, no. Okay, so they all have a similar style.
150
But this is his house, our friend Jerry.
151
Surrounded by all this lush, green, uh, Vegetation?
152
Is vegetation the right word?
153
His neighbor's house is pretty cool.
154
We're walking up his driveway.
155
- his Tesla is Charging Looks like he has two Teslas.
156
Hi!
157
Oh, the door's open.
158
Hello puppy!
159
- Hi, what's your dog's name again?
160
Oh my god, you're so cute.
161
Good girl, Olive!
162
Hi Olive, lead the way.
163
Shoes off?
164
Oh he has a hang -up machine.
165
My dad uses his hang -up machine every day.
166
Olive come on give us a tour!
167
So Jerry has a projector.
168
Projector not a TV.
169
Where is the projector coming from?
170
Oh this must be the projector.
171
That's cool.
172
Olive!
173
Olive's crate.
174
You have a much bigger crate compared to my dog.
175
Whoa!
176
Olive is a beautiful husky.
177
Look at the view from up here.
178
That's a nice swimming pool.
179
These are beautiful dining room chairs made out of leather and wood.
180
Olive, do you smell my dog?
181
Yes, yes you do.
182

183

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.
