1
Now turn to part two.
2
You will hear a man called Henry Lee giving a talk about the first time he went skydiving.
3
For questions 9 to 18, complete the sentences with a word or short phrase.
4
You now have 45 seconds to look at part two.
5
Hello, my name is Henry Lee and I've been skydiving for several years now.
6
But I'm here today to tell you about my first experience.
7
The idea of skydiving is that you jump out of a plane wearing a parachute, But the parachute doesn't open immediately.
8
I'd always wanted to learn to skydive, And when I was twenty, a friend bought me a skydiving lesson for my birthday.
9
Now, my birthday is in December, when the weather isn't right for this type of sport, so I decided to wait a bit until the weather improved around March.
10
Anyway, as it turned out, it wasn't until May that I finally got round to it.
11
I arrived at the skydiving club for my lesson and found
12
that there were around seven other people who were jumping that day.
13
We all had to sign a number of forms
14
and we looked at a short video about basic technique before having a presentation about safety.
15
Then I was introduced to David, my instructor.
16
As I was a beginner, I wouldn't be jumping out of the plane alone.
17
I would be attached to David, and he would be in total control of the jump.
18
David gave me most of the stuff I would need to wear.
19
Some overalls to wear over my clothes, and a pair of goggles, and, crucially, a helmet.
20
I didn't need to have a parachute, as David would wear one.
21
There were thirteen of us on the plane.
22
Four of us were beginners with our instructors and three solo jumpers
23
and two cameramen who would film the dive for the club.
24
It was an old cargo plane, without windows, and interestingly there were no seats, just some metal boxes which were normally used for luggage,
25
so it was quite uncomfortable.
26
The plane trip was fine, and during it I asked David how long he'd been skydiving,
27
He said he'd started about three years ago and had 700 jumps to his name.
28
Other guys on the plane, though, had done over a thousand.
29
When we were a few minutes away from jumping, I attached myself to David, who was wearing a system of belts called a harness.
30
I also put on a pair of gloves which I'd been told to bring with me.
31
I'd been very excited when we took off, and I thought I would feel absolutely terrified when the plane door was opened, But actually, I was completely calm.
32
Once we reached the right height above the ground, the pilot cried out, Door!
33
and the more advanced divers just jumped out of the plane.
34
When I reached the door, I sat down in it and looked out over the ground below.
35
I could see farmers' fields and a large house.
36
What caught my eye was a river which looked silver rather than bright blue or dark grey, winding its way across the countryside,
37
David and I were the last people out of the plane.
38
We jumped with me facing downwards attached to David's body.
39
There were about forty or fifty seconds until he opened the parachute.
40
The landing was a bit different from what I thought it would be.
41
I thought you'd hit the ground hard and fast and have to try hard not to break a leg.
42
My landing was actually more like a feather falling to earth, and I didn't realise I was on the ground until I saw the parachute all around me.
43
Everyone who completes the jump successfully is given a bag which contains a certificate, a discount voucher, and a photograph of their jump.
44
Only when I got home did I realize there was a t -shirt at the bottom of the bag.
45
That was a nice surprise.
46
I put my name down on the club notice board to have more lessons.
47
My first skydiving experience was one that I'll never forget, And I'd recommend the sport to anyone.
48
Now you'll hear part two again.
49

Por que este vídeo é ótimo para aprender inglês com YouTube?

O vídeo de Henry Lee contando sua primeira experiência de paraquedismo é um material perfeito para quem quer praticar listening e speaking. A narração é clara, com uma velocidade natural mas não exagerada, e traz detalhes cotidianos que facilitam a compreensão. Além disso, a história é envolvente, o que ajuda a manter a atenção – fundamental para absorver a língua de forma eficaz. É o tipo de conteúdo que combina diversão com aprendizado, ideal para quem quer melhorar a pronúncia em inglês e se acostumar com a entonação de nativos.

Vamos analisar alguns trechos naturais

Vamos quebrar 3 frases que mostram como o inglês é falado no dia a dia:

  • "But actually, I was completely calm." A palavra "actually" é usada aqui para contrariar uma expectativa, o que é muito comum na fala informal. Sua pronúncia suave ("ak-chu-uh-lee") demonstra como nativos reduzem sons, algo importante para o shadowing em inglês.
  • "I didn't realize I was on the ground until I saw the parachute all around me." A estrutura "didn't realize... until" é uma forma natural de expressar uma descoberta tardia. A conexão entre as palavras ("didn't realize I was") flui sem pausas, mostrando a fluência que se aprende com a prática.
  • "That was a nice surprise." Uma frase curta, mas cheia de expressividade. A entonação em "nice surprise" soa leve, com um destaque no "nice", o que transmite a emoção de Henry. Esses detalhes são chave para melhorar a pronúncia.

Rotina de prática: shadow speech passo a passo

O shadowing (ou "shadowspeak") é uma técnica poderosa para treinar a fala. Aqui está como usá-la com este vídeo:

  1. Assista o vídeo uma vez para entender a história.
  2. Escute um trecho de 5-10 segundos, pause e repita imediatamente, tentando copiar a entonação, a velocidade e os sons. Isso é o shadow speech.
  3. Gravue sua própria voz e compare com o original. Note diferenças na pronúncia de palavras como "parachute" ou "harness".
  4. Repita o processo com trechos diferentes até sentir que a fala flui mais naturalmente.

Essa rotina ajuda a internalizar a estrutura da língua e a melhorar a fluência. E com um vídeo interessante como este, o aprendizado se torna mais prazeroso. Então, bora começar? Aprender inglês com YouTube nunca foi tão prático!

Gramática neste vídeo

As estruturas que o falante mais usa, com as palavras exatas do vídeo:

EstruturaNo vídeo
Present perfect continuous have/has been + -ing — uma ação que começou antes e continuaI've been skydiving
Voz passiva be + particípio passado — o foco está no que acontece, não em quem fazwas introduced · would be attached · been told
Orações relativas who / which + oração — informação extra sobre uma pessoa ou coisapeople who were · boxes which were · Everyone who completes

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.
