Hi, I'm Julie with English Panda News.
2
Today I'm on the street asking people a simple question.
3
What did you do yesterday?
4
This is Bob.
5
He works in an office and loves exercise.
6
Bob, what did you do yesterday?
7
Yesterday?
8
Well, I woke up early because I like to exercise before work.
9
I left home around 5 a.m and walked to the gym.
10
Once I arrived at the gym,
11
I stretched and did some cardio to warm up.
12
Great!
13
What cardio did you do?
14
I usually ride a stationary bike.
15
I jogged for 20 minutes to loosen up my muscles.
16
Then I lifted weights for an hour.
17
Yesterday was an arm day.
18
Oh, I hate those.
19
What did you do after you finished your workout?
20
I finished at 8.30 and I went straight to work.
21
I had meetings all morning and worked on a project during the afternoon.
22
It sounds like you were very busy.
23
What time did you finish work?
24
I finished work at my normal time, around 5 o'clock.
25
Then I went to meet a friend at a restaurant nearby.
26
We had a really nice dinner.
27
I had steak and she had pasta.
28
I got home around 8 o'clock and I watched TV for a while.
29
I was exhausted after a busy day and I actually fell asleep on the couch.
30
Nice.
31
Thanks for your time.
32
Excuse me.
33
I'm interviewing some people and asking,
34
what did you do yesterday?
35
Can you tell us about your day?
36
Sure.
37
Yesterday was a school day,
38
so I woke the kids up at 6 o'clock and made breakfast for the family.
39
We had pancakes, our favorite.
40
My husband drove the kids to school,
41
so I gave them each a big kiss and a big lunch.
42
How nice of you!
43
You had the house to yourself.
44
Did you relax?
45
I wish!
46
I did chores all morning.
47
First I did the laundry,
48
then I washed the breakfast dishes and made the beds.
49
Did you relax then?
50
Ha!
51
No!
52
Then I vacuumed the floors and cleaned the bathrooms.
53
So then did you get a chance to relax?
54
Yes, finally!
55
I read my book for about 20 minutes.
56
It was almost 3 o'clock and I had to pick up the kids from school.
57
We stopped for ice cream on the way home.
58
And at 5 o'clock I took them to their swimming lesson and chatted with the other parents.
59
We had such a nice time catching up.
60
My husband came home right after we did and we prepared dinner together.
61
He is a great cook.
62
After we ate dinner, I helped the kids with their homework.
63
It was my turn.
64
They played a game for a while and then I put them to bed at 9 o'clock.
65
Woo!
66
That's a lot.
67
Yeah, I went to bed right after that.
68
Excuse me, what did you do yesterday?
69
I'm on vacation, so I slept in until 10 o'clock.
70
I love hotel beds.
71
After I got up, I started the day with coffee.
72
Well, actually, two cups of coffee.
73
My hotel didn't offer breakfast,
74
so I went to a restaurant and had eggs and toast.
75
And more coffee.
76
After I got ready, I went sightseeing around the city,
77
and I took lots of pictures of all the beautiful and interesting things.
78
The architecture, statues, parks.
79
Your city is amazing.
80
Yes, there's so much to see and do.
81
Did you see everything?
82
No, I didn't go to any museums,
83
but I saw a lot.
84
My feet were tired after walking so much.
85
So I chilled in a cafe for a few hours and posted some pics on social media.
86
Great!
87
Did you meet anyone interesting?
88
Yes, actually.
89
I met a cool group of locals there and they invited me to a live music show.
90
In the evening I met up with them and they took me to a really cool bar with a great band playing.
91
The singer was really energetic and what a voice.
92
We had a few drinks,
93
shared some food and had a super interesting conversation.
94
They were great company.
95
Wow, look who it is!
96
My friend John!
97
Hi Julie!
98
Wow, cool camera!
99
John, do you have time to tell the viewers what you did yesterday?
100
Sure!
101
I didn't sleep well the night before because I stayed up late to study.
102
And I had to wake up early because I had to attend class at 7 o'clock.
103
I spent a few hours in the library studying and studying and studying some more.
104
I also did homework for my math class and researched some topics for an assignment.
105
Wow, you sound really busy.
106
Yeah, that's the student life.
107
I promised my parents that I would do well and make them proud.
108
I'm sure they are very proud.
109
Did you even have time to eat with all that studying?
110
Yes, I took a few breaks throughout the day and gave myself an hour to have a nice lunch.
111
Then I took a test in the afternoon.
112
It was an important one.
113
I hope I did well.
114
Wow!
115
I hope you were able to relax when you got home.
116
Hi!
117
What did you do yesterday?
118
I took the day off work because I had a lot of chores to do.
119
First, I went grocery shopping at the local supermarket.
120
I also bought a birthday gift for a friend at the mall.
121
What did you get for your friend?
122
I printed a lovely photo of the two of us and bought a nice frame to put it in.
123
She looks great in the picture.
124
I think she'll love it.
125
Oh, I'm sure she will.
126
What else did you do?
127
On the way to the mall,
128
I picked up a package from the post office and I dropped off some clothes for dry cleaning.
129
My internet wasn't working well,
130
so after I got home,
131
I called the internet company to get it fixed.
132
I was on hold for an hour,
133
but finally I could speak to someone and they sent a technician to my house in the afternoon.
134
I was hungry after all of that running around,
135
so I cooked myself a nice meal.
136
The rest of my day was pretty quiet,
137
so I listened to some music and fell asleep.
138
What about you?
139
What did you do yesterday?

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?
שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
