4
Hey Linda, is Jason texting you again?
5
Yeah, he asked if I ate lunch yet,
6
he said he can buy food for me again.
7
Wow, he really likes you a lot.
8
Of course he does.
9
But Linda, everyone knows Jason likes you.
10
You don't like him back, right?
11
Why don't you just tell him the truth?
12
What?
13
Are you crazy?
14
If I tell him the truth,
15
who will buy food for me?
16
Who will take me home after work?
17
Linda, that's not good.
18
Why not?
19
He does it because he wants to.
20
I didn't force him.
21
But you know he likes you.
22
You know he has feelings for you.
23
So what?
24
That's his problem.
25
No, it's not.
26
If you don't like him, you should be honest.
27
Honest for what?
28
Jason is useful.
29
Useful?
30
Emma, he's a person, not a tool.
31
Come on, look at him carefully.
32
He confessed to me last week,
33
but honestly, he should look at himself first.
34
What do you mean?
35
He drives an old motorbike,
36
wears simple clothes, and works all day for a small salary.
37
How can he become my boyfriend?
38
But Jason is kind.
39
He always helps you.
40
Last week you were sick and he stayed outside your apartment in the rain just to bring medicine for you.
41
Kindness is not enough.
42
Then what do you want?
43
I want someone like Alex.
44
The guy from the club?
45
Yes, he's handsome, rich, and drives a nice car.
46
Last Saturday, he took me to a very expensive restaurant.
47
But didn't he leave with another girl after that?
48
That's not important.
49
It is important.
50
No, a man like that has many choices.
51
That's normal.
52
So Jason is only a free driver and free food for you?
53
Exactly.
54
Jaina, that's so mean.
55
Why?
56
If he wants to follow me, let him follow me.
57
But he really loves you.
58
Then he's stupid.
59
Don't say that.
60
Emma, please, if a man likes me,
61
he should spend money on me.
62
That's normal.
63
No, playing with someone's feelings is not normal.
64
You think too much.
65
No, you don't think enough.
66
Imagine a guy does the same thing to you.
67
He pretends to like you only because you buy things for him.
68
How would you feel?
69
That's different.
70
Why is it different?
71
Because I'm a girl.
72
That doesn't matter.
73
Wrong is wrong.
74
Oh my God, you sound like my mom now.
75
I'm serious, Linda.
76
Jason is a really good person.
77
Maybe he's not rich now,
78
but he works hard, and he truly cares for you.
79
Caring doesn't buy luxury bags.
80
Not everything is about money.
81
Easy for you to say.
82
No, listen to me.
83
One day, Jason will stop loving you.
84
One day, he will know the truth.
85
Then you may lose someone who truly cared about you.
86
I don't care.
87
Maybe now you don't, but later you may regret it.
88
Whatever.
89
Linda.
90
Oh, look.
91
Jason is already outside.
92
He really bought food for me again.
93
See?
94
Life is easy when someone loves you.
95
I feel sorry for him, honestly.
96
Don't worry.
97
He's happy doing this.
98
Maybe, but I still think you should stop before you hurt him too much.
99
Okay, okay, Teacher Emma.
100
I'm going now.
101
My lunch is waiting for me.
102
Poor Jason.
103
Hey, Linda, is Jason texting you again?

Practice Tips

To effectively use this podcast for your English speaking practice, consider implementing the shadowing technique. This method involves listening to the recording and simultaneously repeating what you hear. As you listen to the native speakers in this lesson, pay attention to their intonation, rhythm, and pronunciation.

The speed of this dialog is suitable for A1 learners, making it easier for you to mimic the sounds. If the pace feels too fast at first, don't hesitate to pause the playback and practice segment by segment. As you become more confident, try using a shadowing app to record your voice for comparison. This can help you track your progress over time.

Moreover, utilizing resources like a shadowing site or English learning platforms can enhance your experience. You can seek out similar dialogues and practice them to solidify your grasp on vocabulary and conversational structures. Remember, consistency in your practice is key to becoming more proficient in English.

By incorporating these methods into your study routine, you'll not only develop your listening skills but also enhance your overall English communication abilities. Let's get started and learn English with YouTube!

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.
