Shadowing Practice: I Became a Prisoner on the Unstable SMP - Learn English Speaking with Video
Creating lesson...
1
On the Unstable SMP, I'm currently standing in front of the largest gathering of players in Minecraft history, with zero items in my inventory, the most vulnerable I've ever been,
2
since most of these players probably hate me for my crimes against the server.
3
But, to understand how I ended up in this situation, completely surrounded by enemies, we have to go back to when I had just won a 2 vs 1 ,000 player battle,
4
and my ally Flamefrags immediately attacked me, wanting to duel.
5
And after losing the fight, I was left with basically no resources,
6
which is when he appeared hey buddy hello you've definitely seen better days so what's
7
that supposed to mean you see lettuce k is the player
8
who led the thousand player army against us in the first place
9
and he's not wrong with my helmet
10
and boots completely broken i'm in no condition to fight right now that was
11
that was quite the spectacle with the way you are right
12
now i don't even think i need an army to take you with me
13
so so what's gonna happen now is uh either you're gonna die or you're gonna come with me.
14
I had no idea where Lettuce was gonna take me, and regardless of my weakened state, I was not gonna go with him.
15
Right.
16
What are we trying here?
17
Are you really in a spot to run right now?
18
Normally, beating Lettuce K in a fight would be as easy as swatting away a fly, but without any firework rockets nor a full set of armor, my options were limited.
19
okay fine okay all right all right all right you got
20
it bro you got it you got it you got it
21
i'll go wherever you want great i'm glad he could finally
22
agree on something right let us then forced me to drop
23
him all of my items luckily though he placed an ender chest down
24
and i was able to stash some items inside without him noticing
25
but for all intensive purposes i had nothing now all right we We got a lot of work to do, you and me, so.
26
Work to do?
27
There's a lot of moving pieces, and you might be one of them.
28
Come along now, buddy.
29
All right.
30
It's a victory for the heroes.
31
I hope you don't mind.
32
I set up a little parade for you.
33
Why?
34
You might see a familiar face or two.
35
Well, man.
36
What's going to happen now is pretty self -explanatory, but you're getting locked away for a very long time
37
but you'll be pleased to know
38
that you're one of the first prisoners here just recently fully
39
established there's like bandits assassins even a certain fallen monarch you might recognize
40
so yeah you want to let me through the door all right the hole is a system for everything
41
and obviously i've gotten new faces help me run the place
42
well this will have pretty much every amenity you'll need for
43
the rest of your life as a prisoner of law so
44
so do i have like a sentence
45
or oh yeah yeah for sure okay you'll find out tomorrow
46
though thank you okay We've got all this you can see we have mining fatigue.
47
There's a bunch of guards everywhere But there's even guards
48
that you can't see within the walls listening to every last thing you say
49
So escapes not really like a thing you can do here.
50
Okay, but but before we continue anything
51
I'm gonna need you to put on a new skin Why do I need to wear this?
52
Well, if you ever try to make a break for it, we'll identify you I would say good -looking but orange is not your color.
53
Thank you, bro.
54
Thank you.
55
Let's see Come along now, buddy.
56
As you can see, we don't have a lot of people just yet, but welcome in.
57
That's your home.
58
I got a bit of an event for you tomorrow night, so I'm going to need you in tip -top condition.
59
But in the meantime, you're going to live a day as a prisoner, bro.
60
So I'm in.
61
Okay, so.
62
All right.
63
Let us explain to me that at nighttime, all prisoners are required to be inside of their cell and stand on top of their bed, since the server's too big to actually sleep.
64
He didn't really explain much else, only saying that I had to listen to the guards or else I'd be sent to solitary.
65
Enjoy your new life, buddy.
66
You scrubbed my floors now.
67
Yeah.
68
Lopez, you're in charge.
69
Hi, Lopez.
70
Get out of here.
71
Hi, WD.
72
Now, of course, I don't actually intend to stay here for very long.
73
I mean, I might consider trying to wait out my sentence if I knew what it was.
74
And it wouldn't be very long until I had an opportunity to try to escape.
75
Yeah.
76
Yeah.
77
Yo.
78
Shut up, yo.
79
I literally heard you from across the fricking hall.
80
That was bad, so it wasn't me.
81
There we go.
82
Get on your fricking bed.
83
Get on your bed.
84
I am!
85
I genuinely had enough of like both of you.
86
excuse me excuse me what are we doing uh i'm doing
87
nothing i've been on my bed the entire time i saw
88
you breaking the door i wasn't trying to escape i was
89
just touching the door i was just touching the door look
90
i'm in my i'm in my bed i'm in my bed
91
and i'm being a respectful prisoner okay you deserve this everything okay thank you
92
that you're about to get bro you deserve dude
93
thank you it was clear that
94
if i wanted to escape i would need an actual plan i would need to study the prison, learn how it works, and ultimately devise a way to escape.
95
So, I AFK'd until the morning.
96
Rise and shine, friends.
97
Oh my goodness.
98
It's a brand new day.
99
It's been like, it's been like five minutes.
100
Well, it's a brand new day, Wemboo.
101
Okay.
102
I'm gonna let you guys out today, this morning, because it's breakfast time.
103
It's breakfast time you guys gonna get the
104
who the heck are you i guess i guess i'll let
105
you out okay hey bro welcome rookie all right come on follow me kitchen time yeah
106
so how did you see i recognize these prisoners babeloo infanced i've fought both of them in the past
107
but maybe i can convince them to work with me to
108
escape how did you guys end up in here we have
109
a lot to talk about okay too much actually come on
110
through come on through yeah you guys are gonna help out the law today
111
so we need to fatten you up with some lovely food it's gonna be great
112
and we cook by one of our greatest chefs in law a minecraft
113
well that's why we're feeding you but you guys are gonna be doing some jobs for us today
114
you'll be sitting next to me no you guys gonna take some seats i'm gonna be leaving now
115
but i come back later to pick you up for your
116
jobs go get some food over there from a lovely chef he's gonna feed you
117
and okay this guy is just really excited i think i
118
think you'll need some saturation i'll have one food please dude you are so loud you need to oh my god
119
so we lined up to get food for you i have let me let me let me go get it
120
is this what you guys do every day yeah bro get used to it here take some bread oh my gosh
121
thank you for you fans thank you i have some bread
122
as well i quickly figured out what the point of all
123
of this was they were trying to control our saturation making
124
it much harder to escape since we would have to conserve what we do with our food one beetroot
125
and two bread
126
when we took my beer can i get one more breath oh my god my fire alarm is
127
that is that actually your fire alarm yes my fire alarm wait can we get food before your house burns down Oh,
128
Pablo, you need to eat food.
129
You want to get double portion, bro?
130
Yo, Pablo, come here, bro.
131
Yo, Pablo, come here.
132
Wait, I need food, too.
133
Hello?
134
Is that actually your alarm?
135
Uh -oh.
136
Okay, I think...
137
Did his house burn down?
138
I don't hear the alarm anymore.
139
Oh.
140
Okay, so...
141
How did you guys end up in here?
142
Oh, bro.
143
How did you end up in here?
144
I heard a rumor.
145
Let's talk about the elephant in the room.
146
That you are not alive.
147
I'm muting this guy.
148
You want this bread?
149
Yes.
150
You need to give me some information, bro.
151
Okay, sure.
152
You see, Babylon fans thought that I was dead.
153
The unstable SMP has a hardcore server, so you only have one life.
154
Yeah, a couple months ago, I faked my debt, so a lot of people still think that I'm actually dead.
155
After clearing that up, Babylon fans then explained that after me
156
and my friend Minitech stopped them from destroying spawn with ender dragons lettuce k
157
and his lawmen hunted them down
158
and imprisoned them for their crimes since apparently the law are going around imprisoning any player
159
that can even potentially be a threat to the server
160
which is probably why i'm here also okay
161
so um elephant in the room why haven't you guys yeah
162
this kid's afk i think it's fire alarm why haven't you guys escaped um well it's not
163
that easy first of all don't you see the mining fatigue that we have infinitely on bro like
164
we have tried okay well why don't we put aside our differences for the time being
165
and agree to work together to escape like
166
when it benefits you you want to work with us bro yes exactly
167
that is true who are you you do not talk about
168
escaping the prison where did you just did you just come from the wall i heard you talking about escaping
169
that doesn't go here you guys only spending the rest of the day mining in the ravine
170
bro wait
171
so we're not even meant to we're not even allowed to
172
talk what did i do i was just talking you brought it up when was
173
that ever established since the beginning it's obvious you're in prison
174
bro oh my god the code of conduct there's no code of conduct oh my god bro
175
and sure enough when lopez came back i heard you guys talking about wanting to escape
176
so you guys gonna be in the ravines working for us for a little
177
while huh but this would actually be a decent opportunity.
178
Not only can I now learn more about how this prison works, but the main thing that prevented my last escape attempt was that I didn't have any pickaxe or anything.
179
But if we're going to be mining in some ravines, surely they're going to give us a pickaxe, which could allow me to find a way to escape.
180
So I actually need you guys to come through here.
181
And we're going to do a little item check on you guys.
182
Make sure we're not bringing any more food to the ravines.
183
So you guys can't have any extra, any extra.
184
I wasn't even given enough food to fill my hunger bar.
185
You really think we're gonna be smuggling items okay thank you no you're dealing you're dealing damage to me and
186
so i can't i'm losing food as you hit me wow
187
a bunch of cakes were then dispensed to fill up my entire inventory making sure
188
that i had no extra items why would you place the
189
cakes dude i was hungry bro i don't care do you
190
want to go to solitary bro also this gave me i'm
191
sure you don't i'm sure you definitely go to solitary dude yeah okay i'm holding all the cakes see
192
and i placed those two as well so
193
and after the rest of us were item checked we were
194
escorted through the prison into a new room all right come
195
through here guys you're gonna get some gear from our great
196
friend mr beat we also we also need to get you
197
guys a wooden pit like what are we meant to do
198
with this this person mine blocks with it i'm very gorgeous okay level three access i do not
199
they don't trust you wow okay thanks i'll i'll be right back
200
so there's no one else here aside from aside from you guys
201
and then that
202
that one kid um there's also um i think sam right
203
i've seen him around yeah wait what he's in solitary there's
204
a few other people in solitary actually huh can we can we figure out how to get out of here please
205
bro stop you bitch right there
206
yeah he didn't hear nothing bro he might have not heard anything but I heard it I didn't say anything
207
nothing happened yeah yeah yeah you guys are gonna be mining in the ravine all freaking day bro come with me oh
208
isn't that funny you're the
209
we were brought up a secure ladder
210
and then Lopez explained what we would actually be doing i'm
211
gonna need you guys to uh focus on getting gold
212
because we need a bunch of that so you'll get extra brownie points
213
if you do that come through here are we outside oh yep
214
but any blocks
215
that you guys get um we'll be very why is there just like hold on to all your blocks
216
let me speak okay sorry hold on to all your blocks
217
we'll be collecting them to deposit in the storage room at the end of the day
218
so i'm uh i'm gonna head out and just watch you guys oh
219
And one last thing
220
if you guys even think of escaping you guys will find yourselves in our horrible cells in solitary confinement Okay,
221
so don't even think about it cuz I'm watching I would never it's Good luck.
222
We just mine blocks in here.
223
You know what's so dumb about this place.
224
They want gold We're not even at gold level.
225
How are we getting at gold?
226
I am mining fatigue.
227
Also, we have wooden pickaxes.
228
We have wooden pickaxes with mining fatigue.
229
What are we meant to be doing here?
230
What if I just don't?
231
What if I don't mine?
232
Well, then you'll find yourself in a lovely...
233
Yeah, you can't even talk.
234
Wait, what if we get the wood from here and make a crafting table and then make a stone pickaxe?
235
Huh?
236
Good idea.
237
Okay, wait, be quiet.
238
Cobblestone, cobblestone.
239
Dude, look at us.
240
We're just like respectful prisoners and citizens just doing whatever we're supposed to be doing.
241
We're not really citizens, though.
242
We're kind of just...
243
No, no, no, we're.. yeah.
244
Fence, why are we not mining the stone, Fence?
245
Yeah, Fence.
246
Yeah, Fence.
247
I'm the stone!
248
What?
249
it was a pot i was you told me to mine
250
the stuff that's down here you're not allowed the breaks give
251
me the plot okay let's just let me mine in peace
252
see i'm i'm mining like a respectable person shut up okay
253
also have they thought about this first off we've never found gold when we were here If we do find gold, how are we going to mine it with a wooden pickaxe, bro?
254
This is like the most terrible Y level to do this.
255
How much wood planks do you have?
256
You guys are so thoughtless for you about this at all.
257
Dude, I'm just trying to mine this stone.
258
I don't understand.
259
Oh, bro.
260
I feel like there's gold right here.
261
Oh, dude.
262
I'm so excited.
263
I'm going to find gold at surface level, and it's going to be amazing.
264
Yeah, bro.
265
Yeah, yeah i don't know where i'm trying to find some i don't know where there is though
266
there is iron but iron is kind of dooky it's kind of like stone so like while i get it

360
All right.
361
It's almost go time.
362
But I have a very special task for you.
363
you see i've got to get a lot of things done
364
and i actually have like important things to do
365
so you sit in this corner for a few hours until the show begins you're putting me in a corner really
366
precisely can i take the prison instead of just sitting in a freaking corner i think no
367
but you can you know but also take
368
that jumpsuit off i need you to be presentable oh i'm allowed to oh thank you you're
369
so kind all right ace lopez you guys are gonna watch over him i have to go get get ready
370
and rehearse hey come on bro what why am i so laggy up the stairs now okay
371
hello members of the unstable smp i've called you all here today for a very important announcement
372
In case you don't know who I am, my name is Lettuce K.
373
I'm the leader of an organization called The Law.
374
We're a group on this server that serves justice to evil and protects all of you every single day.
375
But that's not why I called you here.
376
A few days ago, a thousand players were killed in the span of a few hours.
377
1 ,000 players.
378
That's 10 % of the server's known population.
379
They were slaughtered, massacred, by the two most powerful players on Unstated, Wembu and Flamefrags.
380
I'm sure many of you have heard of them.
381
For years now, Wembu and Flame have terrorized this server.
382
They kill, they steal, and they decimate entire civilizations.
383
I've tried my best to stop them.
384
Most recently, I led an army of 1 ,000 players to take them down once and for all.
385
But within hours, they'd killed everyone, and I was the sole survivor.
386
Because of Wembu and Flamefrags, Many of you in this crowd have probably lost your friends.
387
And if we don't figure out a way to stop them, and any future threats to come, this server will fall into complete anarchy.
388
It should be clear to everyone that we need to work together in order to stop evil.
389
And that's why I've gathered you all here today, to make a very important announcement, and a very bold proposition.
390
I believe the Unstable SMP needs a ruler, a king or a queen, someone who cares about the safety of other players
391
and can steer us towards a better future where all of us can enjoy the server
392
and so i've taken it upon myself to run an election but
393
before you all make up your minds on who you want to vote for or if you even want to run
394
let me explain why i believe that i would be the best king let's bring him out here
395
I've been operating the law for months now trying my best to implement some sort of justice to our server
396
and I've been the only one to take action thus far
397
and I have some good news this right here everyone is
398
Wembu one of the players responsible for the recent massacre
399
and I captured him myself now he can't harm anyone on the server ever again and
400
if elected king my first act will be to swiftly execute
401
Wemboo as a warning to any player who wishes to commit any sort of crime on this server.
402
As for the other player, Flame...
403
Unfortunately, Flame is still out there.
404
I already have multiple law units hunting him down, but we're very much still in danger, Flame being much more dangerous than Wemboo.
405
But don't panic!
406
Because I will stop at nothing to ensure that Flame is hunted down and brought to justice.
407
And Flame, if you're somehow in this crowd, then you better start running, because this isn't your server anymore.
408
So, if you want to work with me to save the Unstable SMP, please head to the voting area below me to cast your vote.

Alright.
600
Good talk.
601

609
Alright, I'm sorry about the disturbance, Wemboo, but this is a very serious matter.
610
Uh -huh.
611
How are we alone here?
612
Look, let's just focus on what we have at hand, alright?
613
Right, so you're gonna let me out, right?
614
Because there's a button on that door that you can press right now to let me out.
615
Oh my god, I didn't even noticed there was a button on the door
616
yes of course i'm here to let you out i don't
617
think you're as guilty as they make you out to be
618
right like surely you didn't actually kill a thousand players uh
619
what uh of course you did i've i've seen what you
620
can do all right i've seen what you can do i mean here's the thing
621
when i appreciate your obedience but
622
if i just let you out right now what's stopping you
623
from getting caught again again i mean think think to last time i splashed invis on all of you
624
and you still got caught right i was gonna try to follow you
625
and how'd you get caught again how'd you end up end
626
up in here i gave you the perfect freebie yeah the perfect freebie
627
when i had no items and no way of getting any distance
628
oh come on you're telling me you'd like surely you're skilled
629
enough to not need those bro like you know this is
630
more work on me now i gotta break you out of here without getting in trouble
631
and without you somehow getting caught again you're you're kind of
632
stuck i can't lie you can't really make a plan with any of your other uh friends in here
633
because the guards are gonna listen to you
634
and uh hey hey we only gotta like at least i
635
got some time to ourselves right how did thanks thank you
636
smoke thank you anyways i am low -key your only way out of here
637
but i think you already know that
638
so i definitely do need something from you even
639
if you don't have anything on you okay let me thank
640
you let me thank you let me thank you wenbu uh
641
-huh look i've come here to do a little trade with you almost a deal
642
if you will uh -huh if
643
if i let you out would you still have the ability to strike stuff
644
and like blow up things or did you lose that after you um What's after your little what is the deal?
645
The deal is that if I let you out of here, you need to help me.
646
Obviously, we don't want Lettuce becoming king.
647
I think that's a common belief between us.
648
But that's going to be really hard to beat him.
649
He has all of Law, all of Bat working with him he already has a very
650
good moral story of a thousand players dying to these evil players
651
so he already has everything going in his favor if
652
if we're trying to stop him from becoming king we need
653
to do a lot we need to work together here
654
so i just need a i just need a trust that
655
if i press this button you'll you'll help me
656
and not don't not i have to know
657
that you'll have your power still i can't just let you out and just have a naked ah wembu okay
658
what do you think
659
yeah i think that you just want me to leave this prison
660
and then you're basically just gonna put me in another one with forcing me to work for you
661
so i'll escape on my own but you know thanks for your offer spoke
662
but good luck with your your little quest to become king
663
what happened what actually happened you were so obedient at the beginning of our talk
664
what what's going on what what i say that like flipped a switch in your brain what was it
665
is it that you don't actually have your powers anymore do you lose it is
666
that why you have nothing in your inventory is
667
that why you're in here right now genuinely
668
if that's the case then i'm wasting my time here yeah well then you may as well just get lost
669
so you really you really did lose it all huh i
670
don't know what to say i was look i was there
671
during the your little duel with flame i was impressed i
672
can't lie even with me helping flame i mean you still came out on top
673
and it was honestly from my perspective it wasn't even
674

What is the Shadowing Technique?
Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
