Hello and welcome to another episode of Elephant English Podcast.
2
Today I'm going to be talking about what I do in the evenings.
3
I'm going to be following some speaking questions
4
that you might have in your speaking exam and I'm going to answer these questions.
5
The first question is, what do you do in the evenings?
6
In the evenings I usually relax because I come home from work in the late afternoon.
7
Some things I do to relax are watch an episode of my favourite series,
8
play with my cat or do some exercise.
9
I enjoy going for a short walk around my neighbourhood
10
when the weather is nice so that I can spend some time outdoors while doing a bit of exercise.
11
I sometimes need to go grocery shopping in the evening
12
but I don't usually go to many different places in the evenings after work.
13
Question number two is, do you do the same thing every evening?
14
I usually do similar things every evening from Monday to Thursday because of work.
15
I have a routine that I normally follow every day.
16
However, my evenings are different at the weekend.
17
On Friday and Saturday evenings, I usually go out to do something different,
18
like meeting my friends or going for a drink.
19
Question number three is, do you spend your evenings with family or friends?
20
I only spend my evenings with friends at the weekend,
21
but my family often comes to visit me in the evenings from Monday to Friday.
22
When my family comes to visit, it is an informal occasion, but when my friends visit,
23
it is more of a special occasion.
24
This is why I prefer to spend time with friends only at the weekend.
25
Question number four is do you ever work in the evenings?
26
Yes, I sometimes work in the evenings.
27
When I have a lot of exams to correct, I have to do them after work.
28
I try to avoid marking activities and exams at home but sometimes there is just not enough time.
29
Question number five is what is a popular activity that young people in your country do in the evenings?
30
I think that a lot of young people in England like spending time at the gym or going for a run.
31
They enjoy these activities because it makes them feel refreshed after coming home from work.
32
Also, it is quite motivating to see how you improve every time you go for a run or go to the gym.
33
The last question is, what did you used to do in the evenings when you were a child?
34
When I was a child I used to spend my evenings doing my homework,
35
playing and looking after my pets.
36
I used to take about an hour to do my homework which I used to start at 4 o'clock.
37
After that I would play with my brother for a few hours.
38
Sometimes we played in the garden and other times we stayed inside playing lego.
39
Then we would feed all of our pets and take our dogs for a walk.
40
This would take more than an hour because we had so many animals.
41
In today's video I've talked about what I do in the evenings.
42

Por que esse vídeo é ótimo para prática de fala?
Esse vídeo é um material excepcional para aprender inglês com vídeos porque combina rotinas cotidianas (fáceis de relacionar) com perguntas de exame de fala (A2/B1), o que o torna prático e alinhado aos objetivos de aprendizes. As respostas são claras, usam vocabulário comum e mostram estruturações naturais, perfeitas para quem quer melhorar a fluência. Além disso, a variedade de tópicos (rotina, família, infância) ajuda a expandir o repertório de frases, essencial para prática de conversação em inglês.
Analisando frases naturais
Vamos desmembrar algumas frases do diálogo que soam autênticas e por quê:
- "I usually relax because I come home from work in the late afternoon": A combinação de "usually" (geralmente) com "because" (porque) cria uma explicação direta, comum em conversas cotidianas. A estrutura "I [verbo] because [razão]" é fundamental para se expressar de forma clara.
- "However, my evenings are different at the weekend": "However" (no entanto) é uma conjunção poderosa para contrastar ideias, uma habilidade chave no exame de fala. Essa frase mostra como mudar o fluxo da conversa sem complicar a gramática.
- "When I have a lot of exams to correct, I have to do them after work": A estrutura "When [situação], I have to [ação]" é usada diariamente para descrever compromissos. A palavra "correct" (corrigir) aqui é específica, mas o padrão é aplicável a muitos contextos.
Rotina de prática: shadowing eficaz
Para aproveitar ao máximo o vídeo, use a técnica de shadowing (imitação imediata), essencial para melhorar a pronúncia e a fluência. Siga esse passo a passo:
- Assista um trecho curto (10-15 segundos) e repita imediatamente, tentando copiar a entonação e o ritmo. Use um shadowing site ou um gravador de voz no seu celular para comparar.
- Repita o mesmo trecho 3-5 vezes até sentir que a pronúncia está mais próxima. Isso ajuda a internalizar a estrutura das frases, como no exemplo "I enjoy going for a short walk around my neighbourhood".
- Gravue a sua versão e compare com o original. Note diferenças de ritmo (por exemplo, como "in the late afternoon" é dito rapidamente) e ajuste. Essa prática com shadow speak fortalece a confiança na fala.
Essa rotina, feita diariamente, transforma a observação em habilidade. Lembre-se: o objetivo é não apenas repetir, mas entender como as frases funcionam no contexto real. Com o tempo, você notará que as respostas no exame de fala fluirão mais naturalmente!
Gramática neste vídeo
As estruturas que o falante mais usa, com as palavras exatas do vídeo:
| Estrutura | No vídeo |
|---|---|
| “Used to” used to + verbo — um hábito ou estado do passado que não é mais verdade | used to do · used to spend · used to take |
| Present perfect have/has + particípio passado — uma ação passada que ainda importa agora | I've talked · have enjoyed |
| Futuro com “going to” be going to + verbo — um plano ou algo que dá para prever | I'm going to be · I'm going to answer |
| Obrigação: must / have to / need to dizer que algo é necessário | need to go · have to do |
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.
