Welcome back to English Life Story.

Are you ready to practice your English?

Today, imagine you are Sarah.

You need to take the bus to Green Street.

You arrive at the bus stop, but you are not sure which bus to take.

You ask someone for help.

You find the right bus, but there is a problem with your payment.

And just when you think everything is going well, the bus takes a different route.

What do you do?

Don't worry, we will practice these situations together, step by step.

By the end of this lesson, you will know how to ask about a bus route, pay for a ticket, find your stop,

understand a root change, and change buses.

You don't need long or difficult sentences, you just need clear, useful English.

So, take a deep breath, relax, and get ready to speak.

Listen carefully, repeat after me, and imagine you are really in each situation.

Let's begin.

Part 1.

Essential Bus Vocabulary Bus Route First, let's learn the word root.

Root is the way a bus travels from one place to another.

For example, one bus may go to the airport while another bus goes to Green Street.

Listen and repeat, route, bus route.

Now say, I need to check the bus route.

Again, I need to check the bus route.

You can also ask, which bus should I take?

This question is very useful when you don't know which bus to take.

The correct bus The word correct means right.

The correct bus is the bus that takes you to your destination.

Listen and repeat.

The correct bus Now, imagine you are looking at several buses.

You can say, I need to find the correct bus.

Or ask the driver, does this bus go to Green Street?

Again, does this bus go to Green Street?

This is better than getting on a bus and hoping it goes to the right place.

100

Always check before you board.

101

fair a fair is the money you pay for a bus ride listen and repeat fair bus fair

102

now use it in a sentence how much is the fair

103

again how much is the fare you can also ask can I pay by card or can I pay in cash

104

remember cash means paper money or coins if your card doesn't work stay calm and ask what other payment methods are available.

105

You can say, can I pay in cash instead?

106

Ticket.

107

A ticket is proof that you have paid for your journey.

108

Listen and repeat.

109

Ticket.

110

Now say, one ticket please.

111

Again, one ticket please.

112

When the driver gives you your ticket, you can say thank you very much.

113

And before using your ticket on another bus, remember to ask, can I use this ticket?

114

Sometimes you may need to buy another ticket.

115

bus stop a bus stop is a place where buses pick up and drop off passengers listen and repeat bus stop

116

now imagine you need to catch another bus ask where is the bus stop Again,

117

where is the bus stop?

118

You can also ask, is the bus stop across the street?

119

And when someone helps you, say, thank you for your help.

120

get on

121

and get off these two expressions are very important get on

122

124

I need to get on bus 12.

125

126

Again, I need to get off at Market Street.

127

Remember, we usually say get on the bus and get off the bus.

128

Change buses.

129

Sometimes, one bus cannot take you all the way to your destination.

130

You may need to take another bus.

131

This is called changing buses.

132

Listen and repeat.

133

Change buses.

134

Now say, I need to change buses.

135

Again, I need to change buses.

136

You can ask, where can I change buses?

137

Or, which bus should I take next?

138

These questions are useful when a bus route changes or you need to continue your journey on another bus.

139

Route change.

140

A route change happens when a bus takes a different way because of road work, traffic, or a closed street.

141

Listen and repeat, route change.

142

Now say, the bus is taking a different route.

143

Again, the bus is taking a different route.

144

You can ask Ask another passenger, Can you explain the route change?

145

And if you need help reaching your destination, ask, Where should I get off?

146

These short questions can help you understand what to do next.

147

Что такое техника Shadowing?

Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
