1
Hello and welcome back to English Today.
2
This is the second DVD of The Beginner Level, and in this DVD you will see three more episodes of our story,
3
That's Life, and then in our special TV programs there will be a debate about low-cost airlines
4
and an interview with a sports expert about football training.
5
Then, in the grammar section, we will study the simple present, frequency adverbs, some and any,
6
there is, there are, and also making suggestions.
7
Now remember, if you have problems understanding anything, use the subtitles, okay?
8
So enjoy studying and have fun.
9
Hello, Anne.
10
Oh, it's you, Peter.
11
Look, this is it.
12
Look at what?
13
My office.
14
Here.
15
Near my bed.
16
Oh, I see.
17
By the way, where are the office supplies?
18
The computer supplies are in that cupboard over there.
19
The folders, pencils, pens, etc. are here in this cupboard.
20
And I also have two chairs.
21
Oh, good.
22
Are these for everyone?
23
No, they are not.
24
Don't touch anything, please.
25
Okay, so you say you have all of the office supplies.
26
No, not really.
27
There isn't a fax machine.
28
There aren't all the programs I need on my computer.
29
And I guess you have an answering machine.
30
Is it useful?
31
I don't need an answering machine.
32
I answer the telephone myself.
33
Okay, you're right.
34
This office is nice.
35
And if you need a fax machine, I have one in my apartment.
36
Oh, thank you.
37
Wait a minute.
38
Something is missing.
39
Where's the coffee machine?
40
All offices have a coffee machine.
41
I'm afraid there isn't one here.
42
There's a staff kitchen on the other side of the house.
43
In the kitchen.
44
We can have some coffee there.
45
Good idea.
46
Hello and welcome back to English Today.
47
How are you?
48
Now, in that last episode of That's Life, did you notice that Anne described her office?
49
And the most important thing for Peter was what?
50
The coffee machine.
51
Strange.
52
Now, I want to look at the language that Anne used.
53
She used there is a and there are some.
54
Let me explain that to you.
55
Now if you have a single object, for example like a glass, then we say there is a glass on the table.
56
Or there is a hat on the table.
57
Or there is a computer on the table.
58
Now that changes when we have more than one object.
59
Like these pens for example.
60
We say there are some pens on the table.
61
There are some pens on the table.
62
And therefore, in this example here, books, there are some books on the table.
63
There are some CDs on the table.
64
So you see how it changes.
65
Now, let's go and look at that.
66
on the screen, you can see it written.
67
So we said, with singular objects we say there is.
68
Examples are, there's a computer in Anne's office.
69
There isn't a fax machine, that's the negative.
70
There isn't a fax machine.
71
There's a table in the studio, and there isn't a coffee machine, which Peter can't believe.
72
Now look at the plural form.
73
We say there are some office supplies in the office and there are some pens and pencils.
74
And we also use that for the exact number of plural objects.
75
So for example, there are two chairs in Anne's office and there are four pictures, for example, in her studio.
76
All right, so that's an introduction to there is and there are some.
77
Now, in the next lesson, we're going to look at the difference between some and any, which is very important.
78
So listen out for that in the next episode and then come back here and we'll work on it.
79
Alright?
80
See you later.
81
Bye.
82
Do you want milk with your coffee?
83
There's a bottle in the back of the fridge.
84
I prefer it without milk, but with some sugar.
85
Oh, I'm afraid there isn't any sugar.
86
Well, that's okay.
87
Black coffee is good too.
88
Do you have any of those great cookies?
89
Oh, yes.
90
There are some cookies over here.
91
Peter speaking.
92
What?
93
An audition.
94
No, not at all.
95
I'm free.
96
Great.
97
Bye.
98
Well, finally, an audition.
99
Wonderful. When?
100
Next Monday, at the opera theatre.
101
These cookies are fantastic.
102
Are there any more?
103
There are some more in the box.
104
Thank you.
105
Bye, Anne.
106
Time for music.
107
Hey!
108
Take your dirty napkin away from my kitchen!
109
It's nice to have you as my new office neighbour.
110
Hi again.
111
Anne's a bit difficult, isn't she?
112
Yeah.
113
Now, this is a lesson about some and any.
114
Remember, Peter said, can I have some coffee and some biscuits?
115
Well, I want to talk to you about that right now.
116
Now, in order to understand some and any,
117
we have to understand the difference between countable objects and uncountable objects.
118
So, these things here are ingredients to make a wonderful English lemon cake.
119
Let's divide them into countable objects and uncountable objects.
120
Let's start with these.
121
Now, these are lemons.
122
Countable means you can count them.
123
Uncountable means you can't count them.
124
Can you count these?
125
Yes.
126
One, two.
127
So these are countable.
128
So there are some lemons.
129
Now, what about these?
130
These are nuts.
131
Can you count these?
132
Yeah, one, two, three, etc. So they are also countable.
133
So we say there are some nuts on the table.
134
Now, what about this?
135
This is marmalade.
136
Now, can you count marmalade?
137
Well, you can count the container, but not the marmalade inside.
138
So this is uncountable.
139
And we say in English, there is some, there is some marmalade.
140
It's a singular verb.
141
So we put it here.
142
It's uncountable.
143
Okay.
144
Now, let's look at this.
145
What's this?
146
This is salt.
147
Salt.
148
Now, is this countable or uncountable for you?
149
Countable or uncountable?
150
Well, it is very difficult to count all the little bits of salt, so this is uncountable.
151
We put it here, all right?
152
Now, next thing.
153
These two eggs.
154
Countable, uncountable.
155
One, two, countable there are some eggs.
156
This here is spices, spices.
157
Now these you can count, so we say there are some spices.
158
What about this, milk?
159
You can count the bottle, but can you count the liquid?
160
No. So all liquids are uncountable and we say there is some milk.
161
There is some milk.
162
So singular, singular verb.
163
Put that there.
164
Now what have you got here?
165
Butter, butter.
166
Can we count that?
167
Well we can count a packet, yes, but the butter inside?
168
Exactly, No, we can't count butter.
169
So there is some butter.
170
We put it here.
171
Good.
172
Now what else have we got?
173
Flour.
174
You know flour, flour we use to make pizza, to make cakes.
175
Is that countable?
176
Exactly.
177
It's not countable.
178
It's like salt, like sugar, like coffee.
179
So we put this here uncountable.
180
And the last thing, this, what's this?
181
Water.
182
Is water countable?
183
No, it's not.
184
So water goes with the uncountable.
185
There is some water.
186
Quite difficult, hey?
187
Let's look at the screen to see that written, all right?
188
And we will do a general summary.
189
So we said countable objects in the plural.
190
In the positive form we say there are some lemons on the table,
191
there are some CDs on the table, there are some eggs on the table, so that's countable.
192
Now the negative is there aren't any, we use any, there aren't any cigarettes on the table,
193
there aren't any
194
biscuits important any for the negative there aren't any magazines for
195
example all right now questions here again we use the word any we use any in the negative
196
and any in the questions so are there any glasses on the table are Are there any books on the table?
197
Are there any pens?
198
All right, so some in the positive, any in the negative and the question form.
199
Good.
200
Now, let's move on to uncountable objects.
201
These ones here.
202
The examples are, there is, singular verb, some sugar on the table.
203
There is some flour on the table.
204
There is some water on the table.
205
Negative.
206
Again, we use any.
207
We say there isn't any bread on the table.
208
There isn't any wine, a liquid, on the table.
209
There isn't any chocolate on the table.
210
Questions.
211
Again, with the singular verb, and any.
212
Is there any money on the table?
213
Is there any pasta?
214
Unfortunately not.
215
And is there any beer?
216
Okay?
217
Now, I want to add one more thing to this lesson.
218
And it's the words this, that, these, those.
219
Let me explain.
220
with one object you say this CD when it's close to you this CD
221
but when it's distant from you far away you say
222
that CD this
223
that all right we hear this very often let me take two plural now we say these CDs
224
when they're far from you we say those CDs okay
225
so these those one this that let's see that on the screen So,
226
this book, plural, these books when they're close to you,
227
and that chair, for example, and those chairs when they're distant from you.
228
That's a big lesson, hey?
229
There's a lot to remember.
230
So we have some and any,
231
countable and uncountable, this, that, these, those.
232
Whew!
233
You have a lot to do at home to study there.
234
Anyway, no problem, because you're great students.
235
So, we'll meet again in the studio very soon for some more English.
236
Take care.
237
Bye for now.
238
Work is so hard, guys.
239
I wake up at 6.30 every day, have breakfast, and take the train to work.
240
Every day.
241
I know.
242
I get up at 7, but I have a friend at work who usually gets up at 6.
243
Why?
244
That's too early.
245
It takes him an hour to drive to work.
246
Wow, that's a long drive.
247
Yes, but he lives in the country.
248
I think he's lucky.
249
Every weekend he can go for walks in the woods, not in traffic jams.
250
I guess that's pretty nice.
251
He lives in the countryside but works in the city.
252
A pretty nice combination.
253
What about you, Sharon?
254
What time do you wake up?
255
I usually get up at about 9 o'clock.
256
But I live in the city.
257
It's easy to get to work.
258
Yes, but you get home very late.
259
Often 6.30 or 7.
260
You know, I sometimes have five or six groups of tourists a day.
261
You work too much, my dear.
262
And you sing too much Peter.
263
Hello again and how are you?
264
Now from that last conversation we learned that Sharon works too much and Peter sings too much.
265
How about you?
266
Do you work too much?
267
What time do you get up in the morning?
268
6.45?
269
7 o'clock?
270
7.15?
271
7.30?
272
Well, I'm going to describe my typical day and I'm going to use the simple present to do that.
273
Alright?
274
Well, first I wake up at 6.45, but I don't get up.
275
I listen to the radio and I listen to the news.
276
Then after I slowly get up, that's difficult, and I take a shower.
277
I take a shower.
278
I get dressed.
279
and then I go for a walk with Sookie.
280
Then we have breakfast together.
281
She has dog biscuits and I have toast, marmalade and butter.
282
Then I go to work on my scooter.
283
Now my boyfriend has a different day because he goes to work at 8 o'clock at night.
284
Remember, he's a jazz musician.
285
Now did you notice I said he goes to work?
286
That's because with the third person we add an S, goes.
287
He goes to work at 8 o'clock and he comes home at 3 o'clock in the morning because he plays jazz concerts.
288
Then he goes to bed and he gets up at lunchtime at 1 o'clock.
289
So we meet at dinner, which is, you know, we don't have much time together.
290
But that's life.
291
Now that was the simple present tense and now we're going to see that on the screen.
292
Very, very important this grammatical form.
293
So, I work, you work, he, she, it works, she works,
294
it works, we work, you work, they work.
295
Now, very often you forget to put the S on the third person, so I have another teaching assistant who will help you to remember.
296
Mr. Snakes.
297
He is here to help you remember to put the S on the third person. So listen.
298
I work at home.
299
You work every day.
300
He works. at night.
301
She works in an office.
302
It works all week.
303
We work together.
304
You work full time.
305
They work at weekends.
306
So remember, it's not difficult, the simple present in English.
307
I work, you work, he works, she works, it works.
308
Don't forget Mr. Snake, don't forget the S, the third person.
309
All right?
310
Good.
311
Now, listen to the next episode and try and pick out words like often,
312
sometimes, occasionally, because we're going to study those next.
313
All right?
314
Go and have some fun.
315
Bye.
316
Alice.
317
I bet you don't wake up at 6 o'clock every day.
318
Tell us something about your typical day at university.
319
Well, I sometimes have classes in the morning, but I usually have classes in the afternoon.
320
On Mondays, I always attend lectures in the morning.
321
And where do you study?
322
I usually study in the library, but I sometimes study at home, too, when I don't have classes in the morning.
323
My friend David also studies at your university.
324
Do you remember him?
325
David Leary?
326
Yes, I occasionally see him in the library and sometimes in the park.
327
In the park?
328
Doing what?
329
He likes studying there.
330
He takes his books, finds a nice park bench and reads there.
331
Not a bad idea.
332
You can study and enjoy nature at the same time.
333
Yes, I like the park too.
334
Unfortunately, I often need books that are in the library.
335
And what about lunch?
336
Do you usually make sandwiches and take them with you?
337
Oh no, I hate cooking.
338
I usually have lunch in the cafeteria with friends.
339
Oh, I do just the opposite.
340
I usually cook lunch at home.
341
I seldom have a quick lunch at coffee shops.
342
Okay, guys.
343
Stop with this boring talk.
344
What about fun?
345
Do any of you do anything besides working and studying?
346
It's Friday, remember.
347
You're right, Jack.
348
I'm so happy it's Friday.
349
Me too.
350
It's weekend time.
351
Time for shopping.
352
Jack really knows how to provoke Anne, doesn't he?
353
Did you notice those words?
354
Sometimes, always, occasionally, because we're going to study those now.
355
And in English they're called the frequency adverbs, and we usually use them with the simple present tense.
356
And they describe how many times you do actions, frequency adverbs.
357
Now, to help me introduce them, I have another teaching assistant.
358
This is.. ta-da!
359
Mr Dinosaur.
360
Mr Dinosaur is here to help you with the frequency adverbs.
361
Dinosaur.
362
D-I-N-O-S-A-U-R.
363
Now, let's see at the screen how Mr. Dinosaur is going to help you.
364
Well, look at the screen.
365
Now, we're talking about adverbs of frequency, things which describe how often you do something, like habitual actions.
366
Dinosaur.
367
Look at the screen.
368
We have D-I-N-O-S-A-U-R are now these letters represent a frequency adverb let's see
369
if you can find them what do you think o is
370
when you do something a lot yeah often o is often what about n when you do
371
N is never.
372
Good.
373
N is never.
374
What about A?
375
Something that you do a lot.
376
A is always.
377
Good.
378
What about S?
379
S is sometimes.
380
Very good.
381
Sometimes.
382
Now, U, U is for usually.
383
Usually, it's a habit.
384
What about R?
385
R stands for rarely.
386
That's difficult to pronounce.
387
Rarely.
388
And the last one, look at the top, we've got D.
389
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday is a bit strange, this.
390
Every day.
391
All right, so those are the main frequency adverbs.
392
Every day, never, often, sometimes, always, usually, rarely.
393
You notice sometimes is also the same as occasionally.
394
and rarely, another way to say rarely is seldom.
395
Okay, now the important thing about Mr. Dinosaur and the frequency adverbs is where to put them in the sentence.
396
Now, look at the examples.
397
We put them in front of the main verb.
398
So, I never go out.
399
You always arrive late.
400
He usually gets up at seven.
401
She rarely plays tennis.
402
It often rains.
403
In England, we sometimes watch TV.
404
You occasionally drink wine.
405
And the last one is different.
406
Every day, they drive to work.
407
Usually, every day, we put at the beginning.
408
but the others are always before the main verb and after the subject.
409
Now, one problem.
410
There is an exception to the rule, which is typical of the English language.
411
And what is the exception?
412
The exception is the verb to be.
413
The verb to be is always an exception in English.
414
Let's see how that works.
415
Look at the example.
416
He isn't often late.
417
We are sometimes in a hurry.
418
You see the position.
419
The position of the frequency adverb is after the verb to be, not before.
420
And that's the rule.
421
So he isn't often late, we're sometimes in a hurry,
422
they're never at home, and I'm always tired.
423
So those are the frequency adverbs very important, and we use them to describe our habitual actions.
424
Now in the next episode of That's Life, listen for this word, enough.
425
Enough.
426
It's a very strange word because we're going to talk about that in the next lesson here in the studio.
427
So go and see That's Life.
428
Bye.
429
Yes, I always go shopping on Saturdays.
430
The first thing I do on Saturday is drive to the supermarket.
431
I sometimes go shopping on Saturdays, but usually I sleep late.
432
I'm always so tired on Saturdays.
433
I'm never tired on the weekend.
434
The weekend is a time for fun.
435
I paint, go jogging, go out with some friends.
436
Unfortunately, I sometimes have to study.
437
Oh, I sometimes do a little work at the weekend.
438
When I'm free, I like going swimming, going to exhibitions or to concerts if I have enough money.
439
Oh, and every Sunday, I clean up the entire flat.
440
And in the evening, I watch TV.
441
Oh, I never watch TV.
442
It's boring.
443
Peter and I like going to the cinema at the weekend.
444
Yes, it's important not to watch too much TV.
445
An hour a day or so, that's enough.
446
Come on guys, you talk like my grandfather.
447
Work, TV, housework on the weekends, life is more.
448
I want you to take me to places where young people have fun.
449
Great!
450
Get ready, Grandpa.
451
Hello and welcome back again to English Today, your live English language program.
452
Now, did you notice how Anne said that she loves going to concerts and exhibitions, but she doesn't have enough money?
453
Now this word enough, enough, it's written E-N-O-U-G-H.
454
The pronunciation is enough.
455
What does it mean?
456
Let me show you.
457
I have a ticket here for a concert.
458
Okay?
459
This is 45 euro.
460
45 euro.
461
Now I have 40 euro here.
462
40 euro, 45 euro for the ticket.
463
It isn't enough.
464
It means it's less, it's not sufficient.
465
It isn't enough.
466
No ticket, no concert.
467
So, it happens.
468
like Anne, poor Anne, not enough money.
469
Now another example, you ask me, can I have a glass of water?
470
And I say, sure. So, here you are.
471
You say, what, excuse me, it's not enough.
472
Not enough, it's not sufficient.
473
Oh, I say, okay, fine.
474
So, glass of water, here we go.
475
And you say, oh, oh, it's too much.
476
Too much.
477
Now, that is the opposite.
478
When something is in excess, it's too much.
479
Let's go back to the ticket.
480
For example, imagine that the theatre ticket has a discount.
481
Now it only costs 30 euro.
482
30 euro.
483
I've got 40 euro which is too much, in excess, too much, but that's great, that's not a problem, that's great,
484
I can go to the concert.
485
Okay, so that's enough, too much.
486
Now one more word, it's a small word and it's so.
487
When do we use so?
488
If I say to you,
489
you are so intelligent, That describes an emphasis.
490
You are so intelligent.
491
You could also say the glass is so full.
492
So, so is to express an emphasis of something.
493
So, we've studied enough, too much and so.
494
Let's look at those on the screen now to help you.
495
enough pronunciation enough
496
when something isn't sufficient there isn't enough water in the glass
497
there isn't enough money then we can also use it with an adjective the glass isn't full enough after an adjective.
498
It isn't full enough.
499
Let's move on to two when we talk about something in excess.
500
So, there's too much water in the glass.
501
There's too much money.
502
Great.
503
There are too many coins.
504
Now, many is because we use it with countable things.
505
There are too many coins.
506
We can use it with an adjective.
507
For example, the ticket is too expensive.
508
The glass is too full.
509
All right?
510
Then the last thing was so when you want to emphasize something, the ticket is so expensive,
511
the glass is so full, or you are so intelligent.
512
Fantastic.
513
So that's the end of this lesson.
514
Remember, enough, too, too much or too many, and so.
515
That's it for now, and I'm going to see you again extremely soon.
516
Take care.
517
Bye.
518
May I ask you a question, Alice?
519
Sure.
520
Ask any question you like.
521
I'm an open book.
522
Do you have a boyfriend?
523
Well, I go out with some boys, but that's nothing serious.
524
According to my birth chart, I need some Taurians.
525
But that's not easy now that Saturn is in Leo.
526
I see.
527
Anyway, I think you have a strange relationship with boys.
528
Oh no. I like boys very much.
529
They're great at carrying packages.
530
You're exceptional.
531
Thanks Jack.
532
But now, stop talking about me, let's talk about you.
533
What do you think of me?
534
No really, I'm curious.
535
What do you do at work?
536
Oh nothing special.
537
You know Speedmaster, the sporting goods factory?
538
Yeah sure, they produce wonderful running shoes.
539
What department do you work in?
540
I'm a sales manager.
541
Last month they gave me a promotion and now I am responsible for Southern Europe.
542
That's why I moved here.
543
Wow, that's really interesting.
544
You must be very good at work.
545
What exactly do you do?
546
Oh, basically I look for new clients and keep them informed about new product lines and take care of their requests.
547
What kind of requests do they have?
548
Oh, they often ask questions about new models and prices.
549
What do you do if they want a discount?
550
Well, basically I don't get mad.
551
I listen to them and then I tell them, no!
552
Well, seriously speaking, it depends.
553
Each client is different.
554
If they're important, I try to make an agreement with them.
555
Hi, Anne.
556
Hi, Sharon.
557
Where's Peter?
558
Oh, Peter's preparing his audition.
559
Well, tell Peter I wish him good luck.
560
Do you really care?
561
Hello and welcome back to English Today for some more live English.
562
Now Jack, does he really care for Sharon?
563
I think he does.
564
Let's ask Mr. Monkey.
565
Mr. Monkey, does Jack really care for Sharon.
566
Mr. Monkey.
567
Yes, yes, he agrees, he agrees, he cares.
568
Now, in that episode, there were a lot of questions, and I want to practice that with you now.
569
And to do that, we are going to have a quiz.
570
I am going to change profession.
571
I am no longer an English teacher I have a different
572
job I will ask ten questions I will give the answers
573
and you must guess my new job now
574
if you guess it correctly I will play a flight for

576
Listen carefully.
577
Number one, do I work in an office?
578

583
Okay, next one.
584
Do I work at weekends?
585
Yes, I do actually.
586
Most weekends I work.
587
So, I don't work in an office.
588
I work outside sometimes.
589
I have special qualifications and I work at weekends.
590
Okay, next one.
591
Do you travel a lot?
592
Oh yes, I travel everywhere.
593
I travel to America, to the Far East, around Europe a lot.
594

596
Next question.
597
Do you use your hands when you work?
598

599
I use my hands and I also use my feet.
600
Very important.
601
Next one.
602
Do you work with other people?
603
Yes that's very important.
604
I work with other people.
605
Next one.
606
Do you use music in your job?
607
Music?
608
Now music is very important for me, music.
609
And the last question, do you wear special clothes?
610
Well, yes.
611
For my job, I have special clothes, I have special shoes, particular shoes,
612
and I do my hair in a special way.
613
So, I use my hands and my feet.
614
I work with other people, I use music, I earn a lot of money,
615
I wear special clothes and I travel a lot. So what's my job?
616
Hmm?
617
No. No. No. It's difficult. Shall I tell you?
618
I'm a prima ballerina.
619
I won, you lost.
620
No London, no flight to London.
621
Next time there'll be another quiz.
622
All right, good.
623
So let's look at the grammar that we've just used for asking questions.
624
OK, now we have the question form with the question word like when,
625
the auxiliary, do, I, the subject, and then arrive, which is the verb.
626
So, when do I arrive?
627
OK, that's a typical question in the simple present.
628
Look at the next one.
629
What do you do at work?
630
What do you do?
631
Next one.
632
Now this is important and we need Mr. Snake because it's who does he work with?
633
Remember does.
634
Third person, the S, do becomes does.
635
So who does he work with?
636
Next one.
637
Why does she study?
638
Third person.
639
How much does it cost?
640
Again, third person, it.
641
When do we leave?
642
Where do we live?
643
And how do they speak English?
644
OK, so remember, third person does is the auxiliary plus the infinitive.
645
All right?
646
So those are the English question forms.
647
Now, in the next episode, listen out for the negative form, and then we'll study that together.
648
OK?
649
So have fun studying, and I'll see you again very soon.
650
Bye!
651
Oh, girls, we're talking about jobs.
652
Tell me about your job, Sharon.
653
What do you do at the moment?
654
Uh, that's an interesting question.
655
Really?
656
Why do you say that?
657
Well, you know I have a degree in archaeology, but now I'm doing something quite different.
658
Do you have a part-time job?
659
No, unfortunately, it's a full-time job.
660
I work for a travel agency.
661
Oh, what do you do?
662
I give tours around the city.
663
I bring tourists to monuments and museums and other interesting places.
664
Oh, that's nice.
665
Could I have you as a tour guide for one day?
666
I'm sorry.
667
I only work with groups, usually with Japanese people.
668
Oh, well, I'm a black belt in karate.
669
Very funny.
670
But it's not enough.
671
It's too bad.
672
Anne, stop cleaning for a moment.
673
Sit down and tell me about your job.
674
Okay, okay, okay, okay.
675
I work in a publishing company.
676
Oh, so you work with famous writers?
677
Not exactly.
678
I don't work with the writers.
679
I just read their proofs and correct them before printing.
680
Ah, by the way, do you know Paul Taylor?
681
He works with you, right?
682
Yes, yes, but we don't work in the same department.
683
He works in the advertising department.
684
But we are good friends.
685
Every weekend we play tennis together.
686
Play tennis?
687
I'm jealous.
688
Do you play tennis too?
689
Do you want to play with us?
690
Well, just joking.
691
I don't play tennis that well.
692
Only karate and karate.
693
Jack, I don't play tennis very well, I only do karate.
694
He doesn't play tennis very well, it's easy.
695
Men.
696
Now, anyway, it was a good example of the negative of the simple present tense.
697
I don't play tennis very well.
698
Now, I'm going to tell you my typical day again but in the negative and listen to the grammatical form, okay?
699
I don't wake up at 6.45, I don't get up after,
700
I don't listen to the radio.
701
Now, don't is do not, Do not abbreviate it, okay?
702
I don't take a shower.
703
I don't have breakfast with Sookie.
704
And I don't have tog biscuits.
705
Now think of my boyfriend.
706
Let's go into the third person.
707
My boyfriend doesn't go to work at 8 o'clock at night.
708
He doesn't play the saxophone, he plays the double bass.
709
Now, doesn't is does not contracted.
710
Doesn't, okay?
711
Plus the infinitive.
712
So, he doesn't play, let's say, at 1 o'clock in the morning.
713
He doesn't come home at 7 o'clock in the evening.
714
So you see, these are examples of the negative form.
715
And now we need to go and look at the screen
716
because we need to see how that works in comparison to the positive form.
717
All right?
718
Great.
719
Now, look at the examples.
720
I don't teach on Sundays. Do not becomes don't.
721
I don't teach on Sundays.
722
You don't know my parents.
723
Jack doesn't play tennis well.
724
Alice doesn't have a boyfriend.
725
The house doesn't belong to Anne.
726
Third person doesn't.
727
We don't work part-time.
728
You don't know Anne's aunt.
729
And Alice and Sharon don't live together.
730
So now we have studied the positive form, the question form, and the negative form of the present tense.
731
So a whole world opens up for you.
732
Okay, well, you just keep studying and we'll meet again here for another live show very soon.
733
All right, take care.
734
Bye.
735
Good evening from Eric Brown.
736
Welcome to another edition of Let's Talk.
737
With me here in the studio are Marie and Tom.
738
Hello, Marie.
739
Hello, Tom.
740
Hello, Eric.
741
Well, today let's talk.
742
Let's talk about...
743
About what, Marie?
744
Low-cost airlines.
745
Very interesting.
746
You're right, Eric.
747
You know, there are 90 low-cost airlines in Europe today.
748
Really? So many?
749
Yes, that's right.
750
90. Lots of people fly with low-cost airlines. Of course.
751
It's very cheap to fly with these airlines.
752
It's not always cheap, Marie.
753
It's cheap to fly midweek on Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday, but it's not cheap to fly at weekends on Saturday or Sunday.
754
But are the planes safe?
755
Yes, the planes are usually new, so they are safe.
756
That's good.
757
It's important to fly in safe planes.
758
And what about the tickets?
759
Is it easy to find them?
760
Yes, it's very easy.
761
I usually buy my tickets online with my credit card.
762
Well, I travel a lot.
763
Really?
764
You're a real expert on low-cost airlines, Marie, aren't you?
765
Yes, I am.
766
My boyfriend lives in Berlin.
767
Oh, and how often do you visit him?
768
I go to see him twice a month.
769
Oh, I see, I see.
770
And are the flights on time?
771
Yes, they're usually on time.
772
I leave work at 5.30 in the afternoon and arrive at the airport at 6.
773
Perfect for the check-in.
774
That's very convenient.
775
You're lucky, Marie.
776
Usually low-cost flights leave from airports a long way from the city.
777
What time is your flight?
778
At 7 o'clock.
779
You're really lucky, Marie.
780
Usually low-cost flights leave late at night or early in the morning when it's not convenient.
781
Yes, that's true.
782
And yes, I am very lucky.
783
Is there any food on the plane?
784
Yes.
785
Passengers buy drinks and snacks.
786
Remember, the drinks and snacks aren't free.
787
You have to pay even for a glass of water.
788
That's true, but it doesn't matter.
789
I arrive in Berlin at 8.30, just in time for a pizza with my boyfriend at Bella Napoli.
790
A very good pizzeria.
791
The best one in Berlin.
792
Oh, that's great.
793
But for us, it's time to say goodbye.
794
Okay, low-cost airlines.
795
Today there are many low-cost airlines throughout Europe.
796
They are very easy to use and they are cheap.
797
And the planes are safe and they are usually on time.
798
Very interesting.
799
Very, very interesting.
800
Thank you, Marie.
801
Thank you.
802
And thank you, Tom.
803
Thank you. And goodbye.
804
And see you again soon on another edition of Let's Talk.
805
Well, low-cost airlines really make traveling easy.
806
For many people, flying is very simple, like taking a bus.
807
Now let's take a look at some very useful vocabulary and expressions you just heard.
808
The check-in is the place where you show your passport and leave your luggage.
809
In English, it is also a verb.
810
We say, I check in at 7.
811
Or, where is the check-in for Berlin?
812
When we talk about cheap prices, we mean it doesn't cost very much.
813
And expensive means it costs a lot.
814
My ticket to Berlin is 600 euros.
815
It's expensive.
816
Your ticket is 100 euros.
817
It's cheap.
818
Her ticket is 30 euros.
819
That's very cheap.
820
To say what airline we use, we say fly with, followed by the name of the airline.
821
I fly with Air Liverpool, or the type of airline.
822
I fly with low-cost airlines.
823
And what about when you want to ask if the plane is late?
824
We can say, are the flights on time?
825
If the flight is at 7 and it goes at 7, it is on time.
826
But if the flight is at 7 and it goes at 10, it's late.
827
Marie said, I buy my tickets online.
828
This means she uses the Internet to buy her ticket.
829
What other things can you do online?
830
Here are some examples.
831
I reserve hotel rooms online.
832
I don't call the hotel on the phone to reserve a room.
833
I use the Internet.
834
I check my bank account online.
835
I use the Internet to see how much money I have in my account.
836
I pay my bills online.
837
I use the Internet to pay the electricity bill, the water bill, the gas bill.
838
Wow, we can really do a lot of things online.
839
Okay, just two more things before we say goodbye.
840
The first is frequency.
841
When we say how often we do something, I asked Marie, how often do you visit him?
842
And she said, twice a month.
843
Twice a month means two times in a month.
844
Once a month means one time in a month.
845
But when we do something more than two times, we say three times a month,
846
four times a month, etc. Even if we change the period of time, the structure of frequency remains the same.
847
For example, we can say once a day, twice a week.
848
But remember, we say three times a year, four times a week.
849
One last thing.
850
Notice the preposition after arrive.
851
When we arrive in a place like a station, airport, shop, we say, I arrive at the airport at 6.
852
But when we arrive in a city or country, we say, I arrive in Berlin at 8.30.
853
So, we say, I arrive at the station, I arrive at the airport, But I arrive in London,
854
or I arrive in Madrid.
855
That's about it for now.
856
Take care and see you soon.
857
Good afternoon to everyone.
858
Welcome to Sports Special, the program dedicated to all sports and all sports fans.
859
I'm Eric Brown.
860
In the studio with me is John Forbes, our sports expert.
861
Well, John, what are you talking about this afternoon?
862
Football.
863
Great!
864
My favorite sport.
865
It's not only your favorite sport, Eric.
866
Millions of people love football. Of course.
867
It's a fantastic game.
868
The best in the world.
869
Well, maybe.
870
But remember, Eric, football isn't only about fame, success, and money.
871
Oh, a lot of money.
872
Professional footballers earn millions of euros.
873
That's true, but football is also about hard work, fitness training, stretching and jogging almost every day.
874
Really?
875
How often do professional players train?
876
They go jogging every day at 8 in the morning, and then they work out in the gym.
877
Ah, so much exercise.
878
And that's not all.
879
Really?
880
What do you mean?
881
Well, they also practice football three or four times a week with the team.
882
And where do they train?
883
They usually do fitness training at the football ground.
884
First they do stretching, then they practice shooting.
885
Is the coach with them during the training?
886
Yes, of course.
887
The coach is very important for the team.
888
He shows the players good techniques for passing, dribbling, and heading.
889
And he decides who plays in the matches.
890
Hmm.
891
How many matches are there in a football championship?
892
Thirty, more or less.
893
You know, football championships take place in the winter, usually from September until June.
894
And when do they play matches?
895
At weekends, but the big clubs also play during the week for the European Cups.
896
Oh, championships, European Cups, training.
897
Footballers are very busy.
898
Yes, they are.
899
The only time they rest is in the summer.
900
Well, holidays only in the summer, but what about fun?
901
For example, can the players have a beer after a match?
902
Of course, Eric, especially if they win.
903
A beer is a perfect way to celebrate a victory.
904
Well, a footballer's training routine is very hard, but it is very rewarding too.
905
Okay, thanks to our expert, John Forbes.
906
And goodbye to all football fans and sports lovers.
907
See you again soon for a new edition of Sports Special.
908
First of all, football and soccer are the same thing.
909
Football is the British word and soccer is the American form.
910
But they are exactly the same thing.
911
So, let's take a look at some of the vocabulary we use to talk about football. Do you like football?
912
If you do, then you are a football fan.
913
Like me.
914
Do you support a team?
915
I support Inter.
916
We say that we support a team when we are a fan of that team.
917
So, what is a team?
918
It's the group of players that play together.
919
For example, Manchester United is a football team.
920
A person who plays football as a job is called a professional footballer or a professional football player player.
921
Footballer and football player are the same thing.
922
A football player is a footballer.
923
And every team has a coach.
924
A coach is the person who prepares the team.
925
He teaches techniques and how to play well.
926
So, eleven football players make a team, and when two teams play against each other, they play a match.
927
But as John told us, footballers don't only play matches, they do a lot of training.
928
Training is all the exercises they do to prepare for matches.
929
We can say, footballers do training, or footballers train.
930
Training is the noun, and train is the verb.
931
And what do they do when they train?
932
John said a few.
933
They work They work out in the gym.
934
They do stretching.
935
They go jogging.
936
And they practice football skills.
937
John also mentions some of the skills or techniques that footballers practice.
938
Passing, which means to pass or kick the ball to another player.
939
Dribbling, which means to move the ball forward with the ball.
940
Shooting, which means to shoot or kick the ball into the goal.
941

あなたのシャドーイングチャレンジ
英語の発音を良くするには、シャドーイングが効果的です。「shadow speak」や「shadow speech」とも言われるこの練習法は、ネイティブの発音、イントネーション、リズムを真似ることで、自然な会話力を養います。さっそくチャレンジしましょう。ビデオの会話を1文ずつ聞き、すぐにその後に真似て話してみてください。特に「There isn't a fax machine.」や「Good idea.」の部分を重点的に練習し、発音とリズムを完璧にコピーしてください。繰り返し練習することで、自然に英語が口から出るようになります。また、shadowing siteを利用して、より多くの会話を練習することもおすすめです。

シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由
シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
