레슨 만드는 중...
1
Hello lovely students and welcome back to English with Lucy.
2
I was thinking the other day, and that's not something I do very often, but I was thinking the first thing you learn when you take your first English class is normally the daily routine, right?
3
I wake up, I get up, I eat breakfast.
4
And I thought, what would a daily routine look like at C1 advanced level?
5
I started to write this lesson just as a little experiment and it ended up becoming so interesting that I've decided to make it into a video for you.
6
In this lesson, I am going to give you a daily routine on steroids.
7
And on steroids means the most extreme version or a very extreme version.
8
In this daily routine, I am going to give you a ton of super advanced C1 vocabulary.
9
And we're to cover lots and lots of c1 level grammar structures so if you really want to test your english skills this lesson is for you we'll focus more on grammar for this lesson but i will mark out the c1 level vocabulary and then in the pdf that goes with this lesson you will receive a full vocabulary list with phonetic transcriptions with definitions and with examples and of course a quiz plus all of the grammar information that we've gone through today in addition to that free pdf I'll also give you the opportunity to download my C1 ebook for free and this ebook contains everything grammar and vocabulary that you need to know to reach a C1 level.

13
I also want to mention before we start that this is going to be quite an extreme daily routine and some people will probably want to let me know, English people do not speak like this in real life.
14
No, I totally agree.
15
I just want to see how far we can go with advanced grammar and advanced vocabulary.
16
All I know is it's going to be complex and it's going to be fun.
17
Upon waking up to the melodious chimes of my alarm clock, I embark on my well-established morning routine that I've perfected over the years.
18
First and foremost, I indulge in a brief meditation session, allowing me to clear my mind and start the day with a sense of calm.
19
In addition to my mental exercise, I dive into a challenging 30-minute workout session, but I guess it isn't so much challenging as it is invigorating.
20
After freshening up, I pamper myself with my nourishing skincare regimen, ensuring a well hydrated and glowing complexion.
21
I told you this is a daily routine on steroids in order to reach the C1 level of vocabulary and grammar.
22
There aren't many people in the UK that speak like this on a daily basis.
23
Okay, so in addition to loads of really great vocab, we also have quite a few C1 level grammar structures.
24
And let's start by looking at these three clauses.
25
What do you notice about them?
26
We have upon waking up to the melodious chimes of my alarm clock.
27
We have allowing me to clear my mind and start the day with a sense of calm.
28
And we have ensuring a well hydrated and glowing complexion.
29
Well, these are known as non-finite clauses and this is a topic that we cover in great detail in my C1 programme, I've left links for that down below.
30
But here is a quick explanation of non-finite clauses.
31
A non-finite clause is a type of clause that doesn't have a subject and a finite verb, a verb with tense and agreement.
32
In other words, it's an incomplete sentence that can't stand alone as a complete thought.
33
And non-finite clauses use verbs in their base form, infinitive, or the ing form, the present participle, without specific subject information.
34
These incomplete sentence building blocks help add more context and information to our sentences.
35
Now let's take a look at another structure in this paragraph.
36
It isn't so much challenging as it is invigorating.
37
So using not so much plus adjective plus as plus adjective is an advanced comparative structure we use to compare two related qualities.
38
Okay, I'm going to address one more grammar concept from this paragraph before we move on to the rest of my routine, compound adjectives like well-established, 30-minute, well-hydrated.
39
So compound adjectives are adjectives that are formed by combining two or more words to create a single descriptive term.
40
These adjectives are commonly used to convey complex or specific qualities that may not be easily expressed with just one single word.
41
I used several hyphenated compound adjectives in this first paragraph, and we use the hyphens to clarify that the words are meant to be taken together as a single descriptive unit.
42
There are some other forms of compound adjectives and I cover those in the C1 programme.
43
Right, let's see what I get up to with the rest of my C1 extreme day.
44
Oh, this is going to get complex.
45
No sooner have I got dressed in my most casual yet professional attire than I am wolfing down a hearty breakfast to fuel my day ahead.
46
With a steaming cup of herbal tea in hand, I scan the morning headlines to stay informed on the happenings of the world.
47
Meanwhile, as I commute to work, I immerse myself in an audio book, relishing the well-written prose and captivating storytelling.
48
Thus, I arrive at work ready to tackle the day ahead of me.
49
Wow, that's really sounding like a novel at this point.
50
Okay, let's see what we've got here.
51
In the first sentence, no sooner have I got dressed in my most casual yet professional attire than I am wolfing down a hearty breakfast to fuel my day ahead.
52
So the construction, no sooner have I got dressed is an example of negative inversion.
53
A negative inversion is one of my favourite grammatical structures.
54
I absolutely love the way it sounds.
55
And when students learn it, they can instantly sound so intelligent when they speak.
56
So negative inversion is where the usual word order of a sentence is inverted or changed when a negative adverbial expression is used at the beginning of the sentence.
57
The construction is important because it adds emphasis.
58
I'm not just saying I have got dressed, but I'm highlighting the immediacy of the action by using no sooner.
59
This construction often indicates that one action happens immediately after another, almost without any delay.
60
Using negative inversion helps to add a little flair to the story instead of sticking to the same subject-verb type construction, but it should be used sparingly.
61
If you use it too much, it will sound pretty contrived.
62
The final two sentences featured signposts.
63
And no, I'm not talking about these.
64
I'm referring to language like meanwhile and thus.
65
And using signposting language like this is giving your writing a GPS.
66
It helps steer your audience smoothly along and it keeps your thoughts organised.
67
These little words and phrases act as the glue that holds your writing together.
68
Think of it this way, without these signposting cues, your writing could get all jumbled up and end up sounding like a bunch of random thoughts.
69
Let's do a quick comprehension check.
70
Can you identify the signposting language in our first paragraph?
71
I'll give you a few seconds to read through.
72
Use your pause button now to have a read through.
73
In five seconds, I'm going to give you the answers.
74
Okay, you should have said first and foremost, in addition to and after.
75
Okay, what's the rest of my day looking like?
76
Upon arriving at the office, I buckle down and get on with my work, meticulously completing my tasks in the most efficient way possible.
77
knowing that I'm contributing in a meaningful way that I thrive on and I actively seek opportunities to enhance my skillset.
78
Throughout the day I engage in productive dialogues with colleagues, synergising ideas and learning from their unique perspectives.
79
Alright, we have a few things to look at here.
80
First we have the clause, meticulously completing my tasks in the most efficient way possible.
81
This utilises a post modified superlative adjective.
82
That's quite a mouthful.
83
Post modified superlative adjective.
84
So this is an adjective that is placed after the noun and it modifies or adds emphasis or specific information about the noun.
85
And this construction is used to highlight the extreme quality of the noun in comparison to others of its kind.
86
The structure of the second sentence was a bit of an odd one.
87
It is knowing that I am contributing in a meaningful way that I thrive on and I actively seek opportunities to enhance my skillset.
88
We call this a cleft sentence.
89
A cleft sentence and this is a grammatical construction used to emphasise a particular element in a sentence by dividing it into two clauses.
90
I know I said that negative inversion was my favourite but I actually think it ties with cleft sentences.
91
Once you master these, it opens up an opportunity to really add some interest to your creative writing.
92
The purpose of a cleft sentence is to bring attention to a specific part of the sentence, often by reorganising the structure to highlight that element.
93
In this case, I wanted to highlight knowing the time contributing in a meaningful way, so I was able to restructure my sentence to make sure that this portion of the sentence was the main focus.
94
they're pretty nifty, these cleft sentences.
95
Okay, let's move on to the final part of my routine.
96
As the day draws to a close, I reflect on my achievements, striving to be the best version of myself, both personally and professionally.
97
All I hope is that I outdo my previous accomplishments each day as I embrace life with unwavering determination.
98
By adopting this disciplined and purposeful routine, I feel confident that I can continue on a path of self-improvement and well-being.
99
I feel like I'm becoming less and less likeable as this daily routine goes on.
100
But it's not about me, it's about the grammar.
101
So let's see what we have here.
102
In the first sentence, as the day draws to a close, I reflect on my achievements, striving to be the best version of myself, both personally and professionally.
103
We have a few different things going on here.
104
First we have, as the day draws to a close, which is a subordinate clause, but by C1, you should already be familiar with them.
105
These are clauses that can't stand on their own as individual sentences.
106
They have to be attached to a main or independent clause.
107
We also have a participle clause, a participle clause, striving to be the best version of myself, both personally and professionally.
108
A participle clause is a type of non-finite clause.
109
We discussed those before.
110
Can you identify the other participle clause in this paragraph?
111
That's right, it is our last sentence by adopting this disciplined and purposeful routine.
112
I can't say purposeful without going purposeful.
113
purposeful, that's a very, it's quite a stuffy sounding word to me, quite old fashioned, very purposeful.
114
This participle clause also functions as an adverbial phrase because I used the preposition by explaining how the action in the main clause is achieved.
115
Finally, we saw another common construction of a cleft sentence, my other favourite.
116
All I hope is that I outdo my previous accomplishments each day as I embrace life with unwavering determination.
117
The structure what or all plus clause plus be plus clause is quite commonly used.
118
So it's a good one to have in your back pocket.
119
Oh my word, that was an intense lesson.
120
That's probably one of the most advanced English lessons I have ever delivered.
121
I really hope you enjoyed it.

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.
