Welcome back to Daily English Talk.

I'm Lily.

And I'm Tom.
5
And today we have very special topic.
6
That's right.
7
Today we are talking about the airport, check -in, passport control, boarding, and everything in between.
8
So we have real stories.
9
Mostly your embarrassing stories.
10
I prefer the word memorable.
11
If you are planning a trip or you want to travel someday, this lesson is perfect for you.
12
We go from the United States all the way to the United Kingdom.
13
New York to London, baby.
14
Let's go.
15
Okay, before we start, I have a question.
16
Ooh.
17
Why do you have that face?
18
When Tom and I arrived at the check -in counter, Tom opened his bag.
19
He was looking for something very important.
20
Lily, please.
21
Here is your question.
22
What did Tom forget when we arrived at the check -in counter?
23
This is a real story.
24
A very real story.
25
Keep watching to find out.
26
Let's start the lesson.
27
Okay, so Tom and I traveled together last month.
28
We flew from New York to London.
29
It was an amazing trip.
30
Eventually.
31
It did not start amazing.
32
No, it did not.
33
So we got to the airport early.
34
We were feeling great, right, Tom?
35
We were feeling fantastic.
36
I had my travel snacks, I had my headphones, I had my book, I had my emergency snacks.
37
How many snacks did you have?
38
That is not the point of the story, Lily.
39
Okay, so we walked to the check -in counter.
40
The agent was very friendly.
41
She said, good morning, can I see your passports and tickets, please?
42
my bag wallet snacks headphones book emergency snacks more snacks no
43
passport no passport i left it on the kitchen counter next to my coffee i looked at it
44

45
and then i walked out without it i could not believe it i had my passport i was ready
46
and tom is standing there turning his bag upside down The agent looked at me.
47
I looked at the agent.
48
It was a long five seconds.
49
So, Tom called his sister, she drove to his apartment, picked up the passport, and drove to the airport.
50
In 40 minutes, my sister is a hero, a true hero.
51
She really is.
52
And we made the flight.
53
And by 12 minutes, 12 minutes.
54
and ran to passport control.
55
And then we got on the plane and it was wonderful.
56
London was wonderful.
57
I had fish and chips three times.
58
The trip was amazing, but the airport?
59
Memorable.
60
Very, very memorable.
61
Okay, did you hear some vocabulary in that story?
62
We are going to teach you all of it.
63
But first, let's look at a very useful grammar structure.
64
We use this one all the time at the airport.
65
The check -in agent said, "Can I see your passport, please?" She used this to ask politely.
66
This is a polite request.
67
It's very common at airports, hotels, and offices.
68
You can also use it yourself.
69
For example, "Can I have a window seat, please?" or "Can I check in my bag,
70
please?" The structure is: Can I + verb + object + please?
71
Can I see your passport please?
72
Can I have an aisle seat please?
73
Can I get some water please?
74
Everyone, let's practice.

Dicas de Prática

Para melhorar sua pronúncia em inglês, recomendamos uma técnica chamada shadow speak. Durante o vídeo, tente repetir as falas dos apresentadores assim que as escutar, focando na entonação e ritmo. O tom descontraído de Lily e Tom facilita a imitação, permitindo que você pratique shadow speech de forma eficaz. Outra dica útil é pausar o vídeo após cada frase significativa e tentar repetir o que foi dito, prestando atenção à sua própria pronúncia.

Como esses apresentadores falam em um ritmo amigável e natural, você pode usar este shadowing site como uma ferramenta para desenvolver suas habilidades. Se você se deparar com palavras ou frases que são difíceis de pronunciar, não hesite em voltar e ouvir novamente até se sentir confortável. Lembre-se de que o shadowspeak não é apenas sobre repetir; é também uma ótima maneira de internalizar o vocabulário e as estruturas gramaticais que você aprenderá.

Praticar regularmente, especialmente com vídeos no estilo deste, pode ter um impacto positivo no seu desenvolvimento linguístico, ajudando você a se sentir mais à vontade nas situações de viagem!

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
