Take a look at this fish.
2
What do you think is going to happen next?
3
If you're taking the CELPIP exam,
4
you're going to see a question like this on the exam.
5
What do you think will happen next?
6
Well, in this lesson, I'm going to teach you how you should answer this question.
7
Now, I'm making a lot of videos on CELPIP, listening, speaking, reading, writing.
8
So if you haven't already,
9
make sure you subscribe to my channel right down there.
10
Okay, so this is task 4 on the speaking part of the test.
11
And task 4 is all about making predictions.
12
What's going to happen?
13
Now actually, you're going to see the same picture that you saw in task 3,
14
which is describing a scene.
15
okay so in task three you're going to see a picture
16
and you have to describe it then in task four you have to predict what's going to happen okay
17
but it's the same picture so
18
when you're doing task three you can already be thinking about what's going to happen in task four okay
19
so in task three you're describing the picture you can say this is a picture of a fish
20
and a fish hook And then in task 4,
21
you're going to say, I think the fish will...
22
And you're going to make a prediction.
23
Now, take a look at this.
24
In task 2, you're talking about a past experience.
25
So you're going to use past tense verbs.
26
In task 3, you're describing a picture.
27
So you're going to use present tense verbs.
28
In task 4, you're making predictions.
29
so you're going to use future tense verbs.
30
This is very important.
31
This isn't just random.
32
They chose these tasks to test you on your verb tenses.
33
So you really need to pay attention to the verb tenses.
34
In this one, you're just using past tenses.
35
Two years ago, I went on a trip with my friend.
36
And here you're saying this picture is of a parrot sitting in a tree.
37
On the left side of the picture there is a boy.
38
On the right side of the picture there is...
39
So you're just using present verbs, right?
40
In this one you're going to be using future tense verbs, right?
41
Now this is how we make predictions in English.
42
we use words like this.
43
I think or I'm pretty sure or I'm not entirely sure
44
but I think or I think what will probably happen is or what's going to happen next is.
45
Okay, so we use these phrases when we're making predictions.
46
Now, you're going to say I think or something similar to that.
47
Then you're going to use a future tense verb.
48
Okay, so look at this picture.
49
We have a cat and a mouse.
50
So what do you think is going to happen?
51
Well, you could say, I think the cat will.
52
Then, I think the mouse is going to,
53
remember, is going to and will mean the same thing.
54
They're both future tense verbs.
55
Okay, so I want you to look at this picture,
56
okay and and and think about what you would say now remember you have to speak for 60 seconds
57
60 seconds that's a long time okay this is a very simple picture um there's a cat
58
and a mouse so
59
if you say i think the cat will eat the mouse that's only five seconds you need to speak for 60 seconds.
60
So you need to think about a series of events.
61
You need to tell a story, something creative.
62
Just make something up.
63
It's your choice.
64
Okay, so make a series of events.
65
Now, when you see the question,
66
you have 30 seconds to prepare something,
67
to think about what's going to happen.
68
So you can take some notes.
69
So maybe write down two or three things,
70
just words, that you think that will help you remember what you want to talk about.
71
Okay, 30 seconds is not a very long time,
72
so you just have to write down a few words.
73
For example, you You could say,
74
um, cat tries to catch mouse, but fails.
75
Then, uh, cat chases mouse around the house, or something like that.
76
Just any story, anything that you think is going to happen,
77
you need to use future tense verbs,
78
and you need to tell a series of events that will take 60 seconds.
79
Because if you only speak for 5 or 10 seconds,
80
you're going to get really bad marks.
81
Okay, so I want you to pause this video right now and take some notes for 30 seconds on this picture.
82
And then after 30 seconds I want you to try to speak for one minute.
83
Then after you're finished speaking I want you to press the play button again
84
because I'm going to give you an example of what I would say in this question.
85
Okay.
86
So.
87
Are you ready?
88
Here's what I would say if I saw this question on the exam.
89
I have my stopwatch here.
90
So, you ready?
91
Here we go.
92
I think the cat is going to try to catch the mouse,
93
but the mouse is smart.
94
the mouse is going to run back into its hole
95
and the cat won't be able to get it
96
because the hole is too small the cat is too big to fit in the hole
97
but the cat is smart the cat is going to wait quietly outside the hole
98
and wait for the mouse to come out and
99
when the mouse comes out the cat's going to pounce on it
100
but the mouse is going to escape
101
and run around the house the cat is going to chase the mouse around the house
102
and i think the cat is really hungry
103
so the cat's not going to give up the cat is
104
going to continue chasing the mouse until it catches it and
105
when it catches the mouse it's going to eat the mouse for dinner
106
so in the end the mouse is going to die and the cat is going to be happy.
107
Perfect.
108
One minute.
109
One minute and one second.
110
I went one second over.
111
Okay, so that's how I would answer this question.
112
Is that what you said?
113
Or did you have some other crazy story?
114
Okay, so let's take a look at another picture.
115
Now, again, I want you to pause this video do the same thing.
116
Take some notes for 30 seconds on what's going to happen here,
117
and then after 30 seconds,
118
try to speak for 60 seconds.
119
And then after you're finished,
120
press the play button again,
121
because I'm going to give you another example of what I would say.
122
So, let's see, I'll reset my stopwatch.
123
Okay, are you ready?
124
Here's my answer.
125
So I think the shark is going to attack the girl because it looks pretty hungry.
126
So it's going to attack the girl but the girl looks really brave and strong.
127
So I think the girl is going to fight back.
128
I think she's going to punch the shark in the nose and the shark is going to get really mad.
129
They're going to fight for a long time
130
but I think the shark is obviously bigger and stronger so the girl is going to get tired first from fighting.
131
So I think she's going to give up
132
and she's going to try to swim away and the shark is going to bite off one of her legs
133
but some fishermen nearby are going to see the scene
134
and shoot the shark and save the girl
135
so in the end the girl will lose a leg
136
but she'll be saved okay again I went one second over okay so So,
137
I think that's good.
138
You're just, you're telling a story.
139
You're trying to make something up.
140
A series of events.
141
Okay, so I said first,
142
the shark is going to attack the girl.
143
Then, the girl is going to fight back and punch the shark in the nose,
144
which is going to make the shark mad.
145
and then they're going to fight for a while
146
and then the girl is going to get tired
147
and she's going to give up and try to swim away
148
and then the shark is going to bite off one of her legs
149
but some fishermen are going to save her by shooting the shark okay
150
so it's a series of events in one minute
151
so I was speaking for the full minute try not to try not to pause for too long Try not to say,
152
um, uh, it's okay.
153
If you pause a few times or if you say,
154
um, you know, a few times,
155
but try to practice so that you don't have too many pauses.
156
Try to speak as much as you can.
157
Not too fast, just a nice smooth pace.
158
Try to practice speaking for a full minute.
159
and C.
160
I think you're going to improve if you practice that.
161
Okay, so let's do some homework.
162
I want you to tell me what's going to happen next in this picture.
163
So here we have a building that's on fire
164
and we have a guy standing on the roof of the building and we have some people down here.
165
So what's going to happen?
166
Let me know your answer down there in the comments
167
and I'll see you over in the next episode of Mad English TV.
168
Take care.

Perché praticare la conversazione con questo video?

Praticare la conversazione in inglese è fondamentale per migliorare la propria fluency e cognizione linguistica. Questo video si concentra sulla parte del test CELPIP dedicata alla formulazione di previsioni, una competenza cruciale non solo per il superamento dell'esame ma anche per comunicare efficacemente in situazioni quotidiane. Affrontare temi come le previsioni aiuta a stimolare il pensiero critico e l'improvvisazione, rendendo l'apprendimento più dinamico. Utilizzare il video per praticare il shadow speech è un ottimo modo per migliorare la pronuncia inglese, poiché ripetere le frasi del relatore permette di affinarne l'intonazione e il ritmo.

Grammatica & Espressioni nel Contesto

Nel video, il relatore usa diverse strutture grammaticali chiave che sono essenziali per fare previsioni accurate. Ecco alcune delle più importanti:

  • I think - Questa espressione è fondamentale per iniziare una previsione. Ad esempio, "I think the fish will..." è un modo semplice per esprimere un'opinione futura.
  • What's going to happen - Usarlo aiuta a introdurre le aspettative relative a ciò che si verifica in un'immagine o in una situazione descritta.
  • I'm pretty sure - Questa frase conferisce sicurezza alle previsioni, permettendo di comunicare un livello di fiducia personale.
  • I think what will probably happen is - È un modo efficace per esprimere supposizioni, agevolando discussioni più aperte e investigative.

Questi elementi grammaticali non solo arricchiscono il vocabolario, ma consentono agli studenti di utilizzare il shadowspeak per migliorare la loro qualità espressiva.

Trappole di Pronuncia Comuni

Una delle sfide che gli studenti affrontano è la pronuncia di alcune parole e frasi, particolarmente quando si praticano le previsioni. È importante prestare attenzione a termini come probably e sure, che possono risultare difficili dato il loro ritmo e intonazione. Inoltre, l'accento su frasi come I think può variare, quindi è utile ascoltare attentamente e praticare il shadowing in inglese per padroneggiare questi suoni. Ripetere l'audio aiuterà a ottenere una pronuncia più autentica e sicura, facilitando la comunicazione con parlanti nativi.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
