Now listen carefully.
4
Hi Linda, wow, you look so beautiful today.
5
You look like a princess.
6
Hi Jerry, thank you, and look at you.
7
This is the first time I see you wear nice clothes.
8
You look good, not bad.
9
Thank you.
10
I want to look handsome for our date.
11
So, what do you want to eat and drink today?
12
Let's buy some strawberry ice cream.
13
Then we can go to the cinema to watch a movie.
14
That sounds great.
15
I will buy the tickets and the ice cream.
16
Okay, deal.
17
Linda, can I ask you a serious question?
18
Yes, Jerry.
19
What is it?
20
Why do you talk to me?
21
Why are you my friend?
22
What do you mean, Jerry?
23
Well, I am a bad student.
24
I always get bad scores.
25
I make trouble and I fight every week.
26
But you are different.
27
You are the top student in our school.
28
You are smart, you are good,
29
and you always follow the rules.
30
Good students usually do not play with bad boys like me.
31
Jerry.
32
Are you not scared?
33
Are you not worried about other people?
34
They look at you and say bad things because you are friends with a bad boy like me.
35
Jerry, I don't care about other people.
36
They only see you fight,
37
but I see a different Jerry.
38
A different me?
39
What do you see?
40
I see a boy with a very kind heart.
41
You fight because you want to help your friends.
42
You're stubborn, but you always listen to me.
43
When I'm with you, I feel very safe.
44
You're not a bad person, Jerry.
45
You're just lonely.
46
Linda, nobody talks to me like that before.
47
Because they don't know you, but I know you.
48
I like studying, but my life is sometimes very quiet and boring.
49
When you're here, you make me laugh.
50
You make my life colorful.
51
That is why I want to be with you.
52
Thank you, Linda.
53
Hearing that makes me very happy.
54
So don't say you're a bad student or a bad boy anymore, okay?
55
Okay, I promise. But, Linda?
56
Yes, Jerry?
57
There is one more thing.
58
My heart beats very fast right now.
59
Why?
60
Is your face hurting again?
61
No, my face is fine.
62
It's because of you.
63
Linda, I don't want to be just your friend anymore.
64
What do you mean?
65
I...
66
I really like you.
67
Not like a friend.
68
I want to be your boyfriend.
69
I want to walk with you every day and hold your hand.
70
But I'm a bit scared.
71
Do you like me too?
72
What?
73
You want to be my boyfriend?
74
Jerry, are you dreaming?
75
Look at yourself.
76
Huh?
77
What is wrong with me?
78
You're the school boss, but your scores are always zero.
79
You only know how to eat, sleep, and fight.
80
Now look at me.
81
I'm the top student.
82
I want to go to a great university.
83
We're from two different worlds, Jerry.
84
So the answer is no. I don't like you.
85
Oh, I see.
86
I'm sorry, Linda.
87
I'm so stupid.
88
This is so shameful.
89
My face is very hot right now.
90
I want to go home.
91
Please let me pay for the ice cream first, then I will leave.
92
Hey, sit down.
93
Where are you going?
94
I want to go home.
95
I'm too sad to sit here with you.
96
I'm a joke.
97
Look at you.
98
Your face is completely red.
99
You look like a hot chili pepper, Jerry.
100
I'm just joking.
101
Joking?
102
You said no. You said we're from two different worlds.
103
That is not a funny joke, Linda.
104
I almost cried.
105
Silly boy.
106
I just wanted to test you.
107
Of course I like you too.
108
I liked you for a long time, you big dummy.
109
Wait, really?
110
You're not joking again.
111
I never joke about my real feelings.
112
I want to be your girlfriend too.
113
But wait, don't smile.
114
I have some big rules for my boyfriend.
115
Rules?
116
What rules?
117
I will do everything.
118
Rule number one, no more fighting.
119
If I see one new cut on your face, we finish immediately.
120
No more love.
121
Okay, I promise.
122
No more fighting.
123
My face is only for you.
124
Rule number two, you must sit next to me in class every day.
125
No more sleeping.
126
You must do all the math and English a-horn.
127
I will check your book every night.
128
Oh, no. Math and English?
129
That is harder than fighting 20 boys.
130
But okay, I will do it.
131
Rule number three, no more skipping class to play video games.
132
On the weekend, you can only play games after you study with me.
133
Wow, you are not a girlfriend, Linda.
134
You are a scary teacher.
135
So, do you follow my rules,
136
or do you want to stop our date?
137
No, no. I follow.
138
I follow all your rules.
139
I will be the best boy in the school.
140
Good.
141
Now give me your phone.
142
Why?
143
Change my name in your phone to My Princess,
144
and I will change your name to My Good Boy.
145
Okay.
146
Give it to me.
147
Done.
148
Look, our strawberry ice cream is melting.
149
Let's eat now, My Good Boy.
150
Yes, My Princess.
151
Today is the hardest day,
152
but also the happiest day of my life.
153
It is my happiest day too, Jerry.

Practice Tips
To maximize your learning from this lesson, consider using the shadowing technique. This approach allows you to practice speaking in sync with native speakers, which can greatly improve your English pronunciation. As you listen to the dialogue, try to repeat the phrases immediately after hearing them. Since this video presents a slow and clear conversation, it makes it an ideal practice for those looking to learn English with YouTube. Focus on mimicking Jerry and Linda's tone and intonation while maintaining clarity in your speech.
Additionally, utilize your shadowing site to replay specific sections that challenge you. Pay attention to how they express emotions like happiness and concern, which will be beneficial for your English speaking practice. Remember, the aim is not to just repeat words but to embody the feelings and attitudes conveyed in the dialogue. This practice will not only help you acquire a natural rhythm in your speech but also prepare you for real-life conversations where these phrases and sentiments can be applied.
By consistently practicing with dialogues like this, you will notice significant improvements in your listening and speaking abilities, contributing to a more confident approach when using English in everyday situations.
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.
