Hi, Jane.

Shall I bring something to drink?

We're having roast chicken, by the way.

The bike landed on my leg, though, and now it's very sore.

Fortunately, I didn't have to go to hospital.

Oh, dear.

Where was the dog found?
51
I see you found your dog, Bill.
52
Was she in the park?
53
No, although I did lose her in the park when she saw a cat and ran away.
54
Normally she stays with me, but I think the cat made her too excited and she didn't come back to me when I called her.
55
You must have been really worried, especially with that busy road next to the park.
56
I was.
57
I went home hoping she was back there, but then I got a phone call from the butcher to say she was looking through his window at the sausages.

He kept her until I arrived to collect her.

I like playing volleyball, but it's so boring watching others playing while you are sitting on a sofa.
73
Anyway, it's nearly time for work in the sky.
74
There's a special report on pilots.
75
Don't you and mum want to watch that music show you like, Song Story?

110
Hi Carlotta, how was your summer holiday?

It was amazing.
112
We spent most of our time swimming and we did a bit of water skiing.
113
I like skiing, but then I thought I'd like to try something new for a change.
114
My brother had been surfboarding on the first day of the holiday and although it looked like fun, I was a bit nervous about trying it.
115
I stuck to water skiing for a couple of days
116
but then I had a chat with the surfboarding instructor and he told me how to do it safely.
117
I have to say it was great fun once I got used to it and stopped being so nervous.

I'll definitely do it again next summer.

177
Sometimes he wants to go somewhere, and he can't because either he can't get there, or he can't get home again after.
178
Wasn't he worried that he might crash the car, or that someone might crash into him?

198
I've had enough of not having any money and asking my parents all the time whenever I want to buy something.
199
Me too.
200
But we need to be careful that we don't get jobs that make us too tired to do our schoolwork.
201
Right.
202
Let's look at shop work, because then we will be in the warm and the hours aren't too long.

I was disappointed by that film.
222
It seemed to go on forever.
223
However, I'm surprised because the reviews were really good and other people seemed to like it.
224
I know what you mean.
225
It did have plenty of action, which I liked, but the characters were not very realistic.
226
There's no way the policeman would have behaved the way he did.
227
Yes, I have to agree with you there.
228
No one would behave like that in real life.
229
And when the woman saw the criminal, she didn't even seem scared.

You could sit in a space rocket and watch videos of the planets and stars.
246

247
But I thought you didn't want to go.
248
You weren't at all keen on going last week.

275
Part 3 For each question, write the correct answer in the gap.
276
Write one or two words or a number or a date or a time.
277
You will hear a student called Andriana giving a presentation to her class about her father's job.
278
Hi everyone, I have chosen to tell you about my father's job for the project we had for today.
279
I chose the first project which focuses on jobs.
280
I found the other topic on the environment a bit difficult.
281
My father is a pilot for an international airline company.
282
He's been flying people around the world for the last 16 years and he loves his job.
283
After he graduated from university, he became a teacher.
284
He taught in a primary school and he really enjoyed it.
285
However, he'd always had a dream that one day he would fly, so he decided to go for an important career change and train as a pilot.
286
He will never forget the first flight
287
when he was responsible for a plane with 80 happy holidaymakers on their way to Italy.
288
Six more people were working on the plane.
289
He was very nervous.
290
Everything went well though and he was so pleased when his first flight was behind him.
291
He often gets nervous, people asking him questions about how dangerous flying really is.
292
He tells them that it is the safest way to travel.
293
However, sometimes unexpected things happen during a flight, such as bad weather or difficult passengers.
294
But he says that the most important thing a pilot can do is to always stay calm.
295
My father believes that what nervous passengers have in common is that they need to be in control of their life, and when they get on a plane, they have to give up that control.
296
He always does his best to make passengers feel relaxed on the flight.
297
Once he is taken off and he is cruising in the sky, he always has a coffee to make him feel extra awake and ready for anything.
298
Now, listen again.
299

I was very bored and just started to write.
335
To this day, I don't know why I did it.
336
And what effect did this have on you at the time?
337
Well, I was missing seeing my friends and having fun and generally I wasn't the happiest of teenagers.
338
I guess writing the book took me to another place in my head where I wasn't worried about being sick
339
and I felt free in a way.
340
I never dreamed that the book would become something that helped me and my family earn money.
341
Now listen again.

361
and thought I was writing a diary about my feelings my parents showed my elder sister
362
and she sent a copy off to several publishers the first thing I knew about it was
363
when I got an email from a publishing house saying they wanted to meet me, to discuss my story.
364
Now listen again.
365

370
Wow!
371
You must have been so excited.
372
No, I wasn't because I just thought it was a friend being silly and having some fun.
373
Then the letter came from the publisher offering me a large amount of money and I realised it was real.

382
I want to study literature after school.
383
Then I might write another book or several books. Who knows?
384

Then I might write another book, or several books. Who knows?

I may have a great career as a writer when I become an adult, or I may do a completely different job.

Darren, I wish you luck in the future.

この動画で英語スピーキング練習する理由
日常的な会話シーンを中心にしたこの動画は、英語シャドーイングに最適です。「ディナーに何を持って行くか」「けがの状況」など、誰でも経験するような場面の会話が使われているため、学んだ表現をすぐに実生活で使えます。会話のリズムやイントネーションを真似ることで、自然な発音と流暢さが身につきます。特にshadow speakの練習には、リスニングとスピーキングを同時に鍛えられるメリットがあります。
文脈の中の文法と表現
会話の中には、実用的な文法構造や表現がいくつか隠れています。まず、「Shall I bring...?」は提案をする時に使う便利なフレーズで、「～を持って行きましょうか？」という意味です。次に、「It could have been a lot worse.」は過去の出来事について「もっと悪かったかもしれない」と表現する仮定法過去の文で、後悔や幸運を伝える時に使えます。さらに、「I'm looking forward to it.」は「楽しみにしています」という日常的な表現で、メールや会話で頻繁に使われます。これらの表現を文脈と一緒に覚えると、使い方も自然に理解できます。
発音の注意点
shadow speechをする時に、注意が必要な発音がいくつかあります。まず、「roast chicken」の「roast」は「ロースト」と発音しがちですが、正しくは「ロウスト」に近い音で、母音の長さに注意しましょう。次に、「sore」は「ソア」ではなく「ソーア」と長音で発音します。さらに、会話の中では「Don't forget you're coming...」のように、単語がつながって発音される場合が多いので、リズムを捉えることが重要です。これらのトラップを見つけて克服することで、より自然な発音が身につきます。
英語シャドーイングやshadowspeaksの練習にこの動画を使えば、日常会話のスキルが効率的に上達します。一緒に会話のリズムに合わせて発音し、表現を覚えてみましょう。
この動画の文法
話し手がよく使っている文型を、動画の実際の表現とともに紹介します。
| 文型 | 動画での表現 |
|---|---|
| 「used to」 used to + 動詞 — 今はもう違う過去の習慣や状態 | used to i |
| 受動態 be + 過去分詞 — 誰がするかより、何が起きるかに焦点を当てる | was disappointed · is taken · was allowed |
| 現在完了形 have/has + 過去分詞 — 過去の出来事が今も関係している | have seen · hasn't given · have chosen |
| 過去進行形 was/were + -ing — 過去のある時点で進行中だった動作 | was looking · were working · was missing |
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。
