Welcome back, listeners.
2
If you're new here, this is the 8-Minute English Podcast on the Learn English Podcast channel.
3
I'm Nathan, the host of this series.
4
In this podcast, we explore many topics together through simple conversations.
5
Today's episode is about something we all have, daily habits.
6
What do you do every day?
7
From brushing your teeth to checking your phone, we all have routines, right?
8
But are those habits helping you?
9
Or are they slowing you down?
10
Let's listen to four friends talking about their daily habits.
11
After listening, don't forget to check out our special PDF with tips and vocabulary.
12
So, what are you waiting for?
13
Let's tune in.
14
Alright guys, I have a question.
15
What are your daily habits that keep you productive?
16
I feel like my whole day is just me checking my phone, and checking again, and posting on Instagram.
17
You know, that content creator lie.
18
That sounds productive already.
19
For me, it's all about planning my day.
20
I'm a fitness trainer, right?
21
So I wake up early, set my goals for the day, and make sure I have time for my workout and clients.
22
If I don't plan my tasks, I'd just end up watching cat videos for hours.
23
No time to waste.
24
Oh my god, I wish I could wake up early like you.
25
My lazy body just wants more sleep every day.
26
That's because you don't take care of yourself or plan well.
27
Yeah, I agree with Ryan.
28
I teach teenagers all the time, so if I don't plan, everything turns into chaos.
29
I make a to-do list before bed.
30
But you know what's funny?
31
I sometimes pick up my students' habits.
32
Like, I can't stop thinking about checking my phone when it dings in class.
33
I'm like, no, Emmy, focus.
34
I get you, Emmy.
35
I'm a doctor, and if I don't plan my day, I get stuck with patient charts all day.
36
But I make sure to add some healthy habits, too.
37
Balanced meals, enough sleep, you know, things doctors talk about.
38
Wait, wait, sleep?
39
What's that again?
40
I forgot what eight hours of sleep feels like.
41
But seriously, Olivia, I need tips.
42
All I eat is takeout.
43
You need to eat better.
44
I read on Healthline, a wellness website, that drinking enough water is important.
45
And don't skip breakfast.
46
It keeps your stomach feeling good.
47
And, no, coffee doesn't count as water.
48
I also see you scroll through your phone a lot.
49
Even if your job needs a lot of screen time, make sure to take breaks.
50
Oh, man, that reminds me of one of my clients.
51
They told me they exercise by scrolling their phone.
52
I'm like, no, get moving.
53
For me, working out is my mental reset.
54
You have to keep your body and mind in balance.
55
Plus, I don't touch my phone for an hour before bed.
56
Helps me sleep well.
57
Ah, the digital detox.
58
I've heard of it, but never tried it.
59
How do you do it, though?
60
My job is all about being online.
61
I can't remember the last time I turned off my phone.
62
You should try it, Mark.
63
Just an hour with no phone can help you focus.
64
I like to paint or write in my journal when I need a break.
65
It's like a mini escape from my day.
66
Plus, I need those breaks with my students running around all day.
67
In my free time, I cook or spend time with my family without my phone.
68
It's nice to disconnect and do something creative.
69
Cooking helps me relax after a busy day at the hospital.
70
Yeah, I think everyone needs that balance.
71
I love my job, but I also love hanging out with you guys.
72
That's my balance.
73
Work hard, then make time for family and friends.
74
Let's talk about some important words related to habits.
75
The first word is productive.
76
When you're productive, you can do a lot of work or get good results in a short time.
77
For example, if you wake up early, make a plan, and finish all your tasks, you feel good because you used your time well.
78
The next word is chaos.
79
It means a messy or confusing situation.
80
Think of a room with toys everywhere and you can't find your favorite one.
81
That's chaos.
82
Or when things feel out of control, that's also chaos.
83
Next, we have focus.
84
When you focus, you pay attention and don't get distracted.
85
For example, many people put away their phones when working so they can focus.
86
Now, let's talk about require.
87
Require means to need something for a purpose.
88
For example, baking a cake requires flour, sugar, and eggs.
89
What about the phrase digital detox?
90
It means taking a break from your phone, computer, or other devices to relax.
91
If you spend a weekend without your phone or games, that's a digital detox.
92
You might go outside, read a book, or talk to friends instead.
93
Now, let's look at two important questions about our topic.
94
The first question, do you think it's important to have a morning routine?
95
Why?
96
Yes, a morning routine can make you start the day in a good way.
97
It helps you feel ready and organized for your tasks.
98
The second question, what is one daily habit that people find hard to keep?
99
Some people forget to drink enough water during the day.
100
It's easy to forget, especially when busy, but drinking water is important for health.
101
Let's share your thoughts on these questions.
102
Please leave your comments below and let's talk about it.
103
Before wrapping up today's episode, let's look at some fun facts about daily habits.
104
Did you know that about 40% of what you do every day is just habit?
105
Your brain loves routines, making actions automatic.
106
Like brushing your teeth or having coffee.
107
It's your brain's way of saving energy, so you don't have to think about every little thing.
108
But habits can be tricky.
109
Breaking a bad one can feel harder than starting a new, good one.
110
Our brains are built for habits, so it's easy to fall back into old patterns, especially when stressed.
111
If you want to stop a bad habit, try replacing it with something better instead of quitting right away.
112
For example, if you want to stop eating chips, try eating fruits or nuts instead.
113
And that's the end of our episode for today.
114

115
We love you and wish you all the best with your learning journey.
116
Goodbye and see you in the next episode.

이번 레슨에 대하여

이번 레슨에서는 일상적인 습관에 대한 대화를 통해 영어 회화 연습을 합니다. 친구들 간의 자연스러운 대화를 듣고, 일상에서 생산성을 높일 수 있는 방법에 대해 논의하여 실생활에서 적용할 수 있는 표현들을 익히게 됩니다. 듣기 연습 후, 중요 단어와 구문을 통해 회화 능력을 강화하고, 실제로 대화에서 사용할 수 있는 기술을 연습할 수 있습니다.

핵심 어휘 및 구문

  • daily habits - 일상적인 습관
  • to-do list - 할 일 목록
  • productive - 생산적인
  • workout - 운동
  • takeout - 포장 음식
  • balance meals - 균형 잡힌 식사
  • screen time - 화면 시간
  • breaks - 휴식

연습 팁

이번 방송에서 친구들의 대화 속도와 어조를 따라 하는 것이 중요한 연습입니다. shadowspeak를 통해 영어 쉐도잉 연습을 할 때, 대화의 리듬과 강세를 맞추도록 노력하세요. 각자의 개성이 드러나는 방식으로 대화를 따라 하면서 shadowing site에서 제공하는 대화 예제를 활용해 보세요. 친구들의 다양한 일상적인 습관에 대한 이야기를 듣고, 이를 통해 생산성을 높이는 방법을 익히면 좋습니다. 특히, 속도가 빠르거나 자연스러운 대화에서는 내용의 의미를 이해하면서 연습하는 것이 좋습니다. 반복해서 말하는 연습을 통해 기초적인 구문을 자연스럽게 사용할 수 있게 될 것입니다.

결국, 영어 회화 연습을 통해 영어 실력을 높이고자 한다면, 일상에서 쉽게 접할 수 있는 주제를 선택하여 꾸준히 연습하세요. 이렇게 하면 더 쉽게 현실적인 대화를 나눌 수 있게 될 것입니다.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
