Hello and welcome to this IELTS Master Band 7 Plus vocabulary lesson.
2
This lesson is lesson one and it's on family.
3
So, let's get started.
4
Let's talk about the structure for this vocabulary course.
5
My philosophy is that in order to really learn vocabulary,
6
you need to know words in a deep way.
7
So, in this lesson, I've given you definitions with notes and example sentences,
8
collocations, and collocation is a new word, possibly.
9
It means words that go together often.
10
And finally, an action step to end each lesson.
11
So, each lesson in this vocabulary course will have words with definitions,
12
notes, and example sentences, a collocation chart or picture for these words,
13
and at the end of each lesson,
14
there will be an action step.
15
So, let's take a look at the words for this lesson.
16
Now, again, the theme is family.
17
For this lesson, the words are sibling,
18
relative, adolescence, nurture, and relationship.
19
You might know some of these words already,
20
but the chances are that you will learn some new combinations or collocations with these words,
21
or maybe a new example sentence that uses the word in a way you didn't know or you hadn't thought of before.
22
Let's look at word number one, sibling.
23
The definition is a brother or sister.
24
This is quite simple, right?
25
Sibling, as is noted, is often used instead of brother or sister in writing.
26
It's also used that way in speech.
27
Let's take a look at some example sentences.
28
First, siblings can have a profound impact on a child's life.
29
So brothers and sisters can have a profound impact on a child's life.
30
And profound means big.
31
I didn't have any siblings growing up,
32
so I learned to be independent.
33
This might be a sentence you say during an IELTS speaking interview.
34
And last, in China, one of the effects of the one-child policy was that many children grew up without a sibling.
35
So, we use siblings with an S in the first two sentences,
36
but we can also use it,
37
like in the last sentence,
38
with a, meaning one sibling,
39
one brother or one sister.
40
Next, let's look at collocations.
41
To get started easy, we chose a word like sibling that doesn't have a lot of collocations.
42
What does collocation mean?
43
Collocation means a word or words that go together often.
44
Sibling rivalry is a common collocation.
45
That means you'll see these two words together, sibling and rivalry.
46
What does sibling rivalry mean?
47
Well, when you have a brother or sister that like to compete with each other in lots of different things,
48
maybe in sports, maybe in eating food at the dinner table,
49
maybe in business, or just something in life.
50
When they always like to compete with each other,
51
then it's a sibling rivalry.
52
Got it?
53
Great.
54
Let's continue.
55
Next is relative.
56
A relative is a person in the same family or a family member. And some example sentences.
57
With the rise of nuclear families,
58
the amount of time spent with extended relatives has decreased.
59
So we have nuclear families,
60
like the parents and the children, and then extended relatives.
61
extended relatives would be relatives like aunts and uncles
62
and cousins maybe grandparents the next sentence is
63
when I was younger I used to spend a lot of time with my relatives
64
while my parents were away on business in this sentence we use relatives to say not parents but family and
65
And last, hiring relatives can create family problems if there are difficulties at work.
66
And let's look at some collocations.
67
Wow, here we have six different collocations.
68
Now, there are many, many more collocations for each word,
69
but for this course, I've chosen six of the most common collocations for this word.
70
First is care for relative.
71
Okay?
72
To care for.
73
For example, on weekends, I go to the hospital to care for my relatives.
74
Just like you could say grandparents or aunt and uncle.
75
To care for your relatives.
76
Next is other relatives.
77
I have my brother and sister,
78
and then I have other relatives that live in the house as well.
79
Distant relatives are your family members that are far away from you,
80
not in terms of how far away in the country they are,
81
but from you in your family.
82
So, for example, my mother's cousin's son could be an example of a distant relative.
83
On the other side, close relative.
84
Now, close relative is someone that you have a close relationship with that's in your family.
85
Elderly relative, someone who is older and your relative.
86
And finally, visit relatives.
87
Now, this is a common collocation.
88
It's common to say, next year,
89
I'm going to visit my relatives in Europe or something like that.
90
Number three, adolescence.
91
Adolescence.
92
The definition of adolescence is the period between childhood and adulthood.
93
And this means the teenage years.
94
So if you look at the note,
95
if we have adolescence with a T and an S,
96
or adolescent without the S, it basically means teenager.
97
So think 13 to about 19 years old could be adolescence.
98
Let's say that one more time because it's a little bit difficult.
99
Adolescence. And example sentences.
100
Adolescence can be a difficult time both for the child and the parent.
101
Very true.
102
In regards to prison sentences,
103
I believe that adolescents should be treated the same way as adults.
104
And note change CE at the end of the word to TS to describe people,
105
not the period of time.
106
So the first example sentence is the period of time,
107
and the second example sentence is the person or the people.
108
Collocations for adolescence.
109
Well, we have early adolescence.
110
Early adolescence is like 13, 14, 15 years old.
111
During adolescence. And childhood and adolescence.
112
Adolescence is a good comparison word for childhood.
113
You have childhood, adolescence, adulthood.
114
Next, nurture.
115
The definition of nurture is to help someone or something develop and grow.
116
And you can see the picture of the person nurturing the plant on the top right.
117
Also, note the adjective form of nurture is nurturing.
118
So let's look at some example sentences.
119
First, nature versus nurture is a common topic among scientists.
120
It discusses whether a person's life is mostly from his DNA,
121
nature, or from life experiences and his environment, nurture.
122
So this is an interesting sentence and an interesting topic.
123
if you're interested in this copy or type in nature versus nurture into Google
124
or another search engine and take a look next sentence growing up in a healthy
125
and nurturing environment can prepare children for future success here we're using nurture in its adjective form nurturing next to environment.
126
Collocations.
127
We have nurture by someone or nurture by something and to nurture talent.
128
So if a child is talented,
129
perhaps a coach will nurture their talent
130
and help them become better at what they're doing
131
and nurture by someone for example the child was nurtured
132
by their coach for many years number five relationship the definition of relationship is the way in
133
which two people groups or countries behave towards each other
134
or deal with each other and it says two people
135
but really a relationship can be more than two people
136
and some example sentences I have a good working relationship with my boss.
137
Maintaining a strong relationship with your friends becomes more difficult later in life.
138
The relationship between the police and local community has improved.
139
Now of course you probably know relationship.
140
The interesting thing about relationship is the collocations.
141
First, we have relationship between.
142
For example, a relationship between two people.
143
Relationship with.
144
For example, a relationship with your parents.
145
A relationship with your family or with your boss.
146
Next, establish a relationship.
147
This means to make a relationship to create a relationship next
148
a close relationship up on the top right close relationship you
149
have a good a strong a close relationship with a person
150
next a personal relationship personal relationship usually compares with work relationship
151
so if you develop a personal relationship with someone then maybe you have a friendship with them
152
and last a special relationship i think you understand what this one means
153
so that's the five words for this lesson your action step
154
for today is to use each word to write two sentences
155
and post your sentences in the comments below be sure to use the collocations that I introduced whenever you can.
156
It's good practice to use these collocations so that you can remember them and truly deeply understand these words.
157
When it comes to your IELTS test,
158
your speaking, or your writing,
159
you'll choose the correct words to put together and it will really help your score.
160
Good luck!

Dicas de Prática
Uma das melhores maneiras de aprender inglês com YouTube é utilizar a técnica de shadow speech. Para isso, ouça a lição em um ritmo moderado e repita as frases após o apresentador. Aproveite para prestar atenção à entonação e à pronúncia. A prática de shadowing é especialmente eficaz quando você acompanha vídeos que oferecem bons exemplos de frases, como neste tutorial. Tente repetir as frases em voz alta, imitando a forma como o apresentador fala. Ao focar em expressões como “sibling rivalry” ou “profound impact”, você não apenas memorizzará o vocabulário, mas também melhorará sua fluência. Faça isso regularmente, e você perceberá uma evolução significativa nas suas habilidades de shadow speak.
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.
