Hello everybody!
2
Welcome back to Reading for Vocabulary.
3
We're on unit 5.
4
We're talking about cycles.
5
Not your bicycle, but something that repeats like a circle, like the wheels on your bicycle.
6
They go around and around and they begin again and again.
7
So that's what we're talking about with cycles.
8
In lesson 13, we're talking about the world's greatest traveler.
9
Now you're probably thinking the world's greatest traveler.
10
Is it Marco Polo?
11
No, it's not a person.
12
It's a thing.
13
We're going to focus on the cycle of water and
14
And we're going to see how water is the world's greatest traveler
15
because water really travels a lot and it travels in a cycle.
16
It goes around and around.
17
Well, we'll explore that idea later on in the reading passage.
18
But of course, as usual, we need to learn some vocabulary first to better understand the reading passage.
19
So let's get started with the vocabulary.
20
The first word is defined as a series of events that is repeated a number of times.
21
Now, you've probably seen these types of pictures before.
22
We can see a tree in different stages.
23
And we know, right, that this is spring, this is summer, this is fall, and this is winter.
24
And we might think, well, seasons.
25
But we're saying a series of events that is repeated a number of times.
26
It's not just the seasons.
27
The seasons is an example of this.
28
But what are we talking about?
29
We're talking about a cycle.
30
It's like I talked about before, right?
31
On your bicycle, right, you have two wheels.
32
Well, think about one wheel.
33
It starts here and it goes around and it comes back to the beginning, right?
34
It's a cycle.
35
It's a series of events that is repeated, so it goes around, right?
36
It starts here, maybe in spring, goes around to summer, then to fall, then to winter, and it comes back to spring.
37
So, the seasons is a type of cycle, and there are many types of cycles in the world around us.
38
We'll talk about one in the reading passage.
39
Okay, word number two, water that falls from the sky.
40
So you're probably thinking about rain, right?
41
You know this word, rain.
42
That's an easy word.
43
But there's another word that we use for rain that's longer.
44
It's more of a scientific word, and I'm sorry, it's kind of long, right?
45
Pre -ci -pi -ta -tion, pre -ci -pi -ta -tion.
46
Wow, so many syllables, there's five syllables.
47
So let's say it fast, we'll slow first and then fast, pre -ci -pi -ta -tion, pre -ci -pi -ta -tion.
48
One more time, pre -ci -pi -ta -tion, okay?
49
So if you say it quickly, it sounds like pre -ci -pi -ta -tion, okay?
50
Precipitation just means rain.
51
It's more of a scientific word for rain.
52
Okay let's move on to number three.
53
The process of water collecting together in the air.
54
So the process of water collecting together in the air.
55
Now you're probably thinking what is this?
56
It's a cloud but we're not talking about a cloud.
57
We're not talking about the grouping of moisture in the air we're talking about the process of
58
and there's a special word for that we call
59
that condensation oh big words in this lesson right
60
so let's do this slowly con den say shun condensation faster condensation condensation okay
61
so condensation is a process it's the process of water collecting together in the air.
62
And clouds are formed because of condensation.
63
So if you think, how do clouds appear in the sky?
64
It's because of condensation.
65
So condensation is the process.
66
Okay, let's move on.
67
For a liquid to be taken into the air.
68
This is a sad picture, right?
69
This little boy, he wants to go swimming
70
but there's no water in the swimming pool what happened to the water in the swimming pool well it evaporated
71
right evaporate is a verb it's also a process right
72
it's the process of a liquid to be taken into the air on a hot day
73
if you have a a dish of water
74
or there's a puddle of water on the ground well after some time in the hot day
75
that water will disappear right in the summertime you look at the streets they're very dry a truck comes by
76
and sprays water on the streets but after a little
77
while the water is gone the street is very dry again
78
because of evaporation okay so evaporation makes the water go into the air
79
and then when the air is cool the air the water gets together and
80
condensation happens okay so first evaporation then condensation we'll talk about those later
81
But we need to know about those words.
82
Okay, next one.
83
Five, to suck up or drink in.
84
To suck up or drink in is to absorb.
85
Absorb.
86
Okay, we're doing some little bit difficult words in this lesson, right?
87
Now, of course, if you spill something,
88
you can use a paper towel to absorb the liquid that you spilled on the table.
89
Okay.
90
So you can use a paper towel and paper towels, the companies that make paper towels will boast.
91
They will brag.
92
They'll say, our paper towels have great absorption power, right?
93
They will absorb a lot of liquid to take in or to suck up or to drink in or to take in.
94
Okay.
95
Oh, he's happy?
96
To become aware.
97
To become aware of something is to realize.
98
It looks like he had, oh, I have an idea, right?
99
It's like, bing, a light bulb goes on over his head.
100
He realizes something.
101
He became aware of something.
102
A lot of famous inventors or scientists, you know, there's stories about them, you know, coming to a moment of realization, right?
103
Like the famous
104
Greek philosopher who sat in a bathtub and said, Eureka, right?
105
And realized he could use the water, the weight of an object in a water to realize how much volume it had.
106
Okay.
107
So to realize it's like the moment you understand something.
108
Next one, for a liquid to move together in a single direction.
109
For a liquid, any liquid to move together and a lot of liquid moving together weatherness in one direction.
110
It doesn't have to be a lot.
111
It could be a cup of water, but if you spill it, it moves in a direction.
112
This stream, of course, is moving in a direction downhill.
113
What is it doing?
114
It is flowing.
115
Flow is a verb, to flow.
116
So this small stream is flowing quickly, right?
117
Because maybe it's kind of a, not very steep, but it's not flat.
118
It's, you know, there's uphill and then downhill and the water will flow quickly downhill.
119
So this is a very active stream, right?
120
Okay.
121
Next one, greatly needed or necessary.
122
Greatly needed or necessary is essential.
123
If something is essential, you really need it.
124
For example, when we think of essential, it's like things that we need to continue to survive like food.
125
Food is essential.
126
Air, oxygen is essential.
127
If we don't have it, we'll die, right?
128
So we greatly need it.
129
It's very necessary.
130
It's essential.
131
Okay.
132
Next one, nine.
133
Whoa!
134
Looks like he's on vacation at a resort a large cloth used for drying.
135
So what do we call this cloth?
136
You probably take it to the beach with you or you take it when you go swimming.
137
You use it when you take a shower or a bath.
138
It's called a towel.
139
A towel.
140
So if you're in an English speaking country
141
and you want a cloth to dry yourself off you can ask is there a towel please
142
or can I get a towel okay next one a flow of water used to clean oneself
143
I just mentioned this word after you do this you need a towel remember what I said I said
144
when you take a shower when we use the word shower we use it in a larger expression very commonly take a.
145
Take a shower.
146
We also use take a bath.
147
Okay, now what's the difference between a shower and a bath?
148
Well, you see this boy here, the water is falling.
149
from the faucet above, it's falling on him like rain.
150
That's a shower.
151
But a bath is where you have a bathtub and you sit in the water, right?
152
And the water's already there and you clean yourself with the bath water.
153
It's kind of like when you go to a sauna, right?
154
It's kind of like a big bath, right?
155
And you get in the sauna.
156
But a shower is like this style.
157
So, but we use take a, take a shower, take a bath, okay?
158
You should take a shower every day.
159
You should take a shower after you exercise.
160
Remember to do that, right?
161
If you don't take a shower, ooh, some nimze is there, right?
162
Okay, next one.
163
Eleven, a collection of water high up in the sky.
164
We talked about this before, right?
165
I gave you the word before, it's a cloud, right?
166
So this airplane is flying over these clouds.
167
It's very beautiful.
168
If you're ever in an airplane very high up in the sky, look out the window and you can see the clouds below you.
169
It looks like land, but it's very fantastic, right?
170
Very beautiful, very white, and looks very clean.
171
Okay, next one.
172
Not moving.
173
So this lake, the water in this lake, is what?
174
It is very still.
175
Still, we can also say calm.
176
Still or calm.
177
Calm means there's no motion, right?
178
This is very peaceful, calm.
179
The water is still.
180
No movement, okay?
181
That's a very beautiful picture.
182
Next one, a very tiny bit of water.
183
So a very tiny bit of water, what do we call that?
184
We call it a droplet, a droplet.
185
It's like a little ball of water, right?
186
When we just drop a little bit of water on something or when it rains just lightly,
187
not a lot, but the water will collect in little drops, in drops.
188
And we call them droplets.
189
There's one droplet, two droplets.
190
You could also, of course, just say a drop of water but sometimes people will say droplet.
191
Okay, next one.
192
A small pool of water is a puddle.
193
So you like to go splashing through the puddles, right?
194
Okay, this girl of course, she's wearing good shoes for that.
195
Don't do that if you're wearing shoes and socks, your mother will be angry, right?
196
But if you're wearing sandals or rubber shoes like she's wearing, no problem, Have fun, right?
197
Go running through the puddles of water.
198
Kids like to do that.
199
Okay, next one.
200
Icy rain.
201
It's rain, but it's really cold.
202
So it becomes icy.
203
It's almost freezing.
204
We call that sleet.
205
So sleet is, you know, it's not snow.
206
It's not rain, but it's like almost a combination of both it's where it's really cold
207
and it's raining and it's it's almost icy right
208
so it's icy rain it's sleet now sleet is dangerous
209
because on the roads we have to be very careful because as you know ice is
210
mikroa right it's slippery right so you have to be careful
211
when it's sleet outside you also have to be careful
212
when you're walking okay next one for a liquid to absorb into something.
213
When a liquid absorbs, we heard this word before, right?
214
We talked about the paper towel, right?
215
The paper towel will clean up the liquid.
216
It will absorb into the paper towel.
217
We say it's soaked, right?
218
If you are soaked, right?
219
It's raining really hard like in the summertime.
220
You go outside and you don't have an umbrella.
221
You don't have a raincoat.
222
You're just wearing normal clothes, what happens?
223
You get water everywhere, in your hair, on your shirt, under your shirt, your underwear is completely wet,
224
your socks in your shoes, when you're walking, right?
225
It makes a noise.
226
You are soaked, right?
227
So people will say, I am soaked.
228
It means I got water everywhere, right?
229
I have to take everything off, take a hot shower, and then dry off because I'm soaked, okay?
230
So to soak is for liquid to completely absorb into something.
231
It doesn't matter what it is.
232
It could be you, your skin, right?
233
It could be a paper towel.
234
It could be a dog.
235
You know, whatever.
236
The water has completely gotten in and onto something.
237
That's to soak.
238
Okay, next one.
239
Well, not next one.
240
We need to look at the words let's check the words
241
that we just learned make sure that we remember those
242
and how they are used
243
so let's go over the different problems here number one I just beep
244
that I forgot to do my homework so you just what it's like you have an idea
245
And what is that?
246
I just, A, made, B, realized, C, spent, D, absorbed.
247
So in this case, right, we could use a word that means that you had a sudden idea.
248
You suddenly became aware of the fact that you forgot to do your homework.
249
Has that ever happened to you?
250
It's not a good feeling oh my gosh, right?
251
It's at the beginning of the lesson, the beginning of the class.
252
And you suddenly realize, oh my gosh, there was homework yesterday.
253
The teacher gave us homework and I forgot.
254
Suddenly you have that idea.
255
That means you realized.
256
I just realized.
257
I just thought.
258
I just remembered.
259
I just realized that I forgot to do my homework.
260
Not made, not spent, not absorbed.
261
Those don't make sense.
262
Realized, you suddenly became aware of that fact.
263
Number four, birth and death are part of the beep of life.
264
Think about that.
265
Birth is at the beginning.
266
A person lives their life and then they die.
267
Now, of course, for an individual person, for one person, it's not a continual process.
268
But if that person is born, they grow up, they have a baby, right?
269
That person is born and they grow up.
270
So it's like it goes around in a circle, right?
271
So what do we call that?
272
Birth and death are part of the what of life.
273
End, beginning, C cycle, D loss.
274
Remember, you have a beginning and then an end and then it starts again, right?
275
Well, life continues, right?
276
Not for the individual person, unfortunately, right?
277
It's like a straight line, birth and then death.
278
But if we're talking about all things like human beings, right?
279
People are born, they die.
280
More people are born, they die.
281
It goes around in a continual process.
282
So we call that what?
283
We call it a cycle.
284
That's what I talked about before, right?
285
Birth and death are part of the cycle of life, okay?
286
If you watch
287
The Lion King, maybe an older movie, maybe you haven't seen it, But at the beginning, they talk about the circle of life.
288
That's the same idea.
289
It's the cycle of life.
290
They're talking about constant death and constant renewal.
291
Constant death and constant birth.
292
It goes in a cycle.
293
The circle of life.
294
There's a song associated with that.
295
Okay, but it's not the end of life because birth continues.
296
It's not the beginning because that's only one part.
297
And it's not the loss of life.
298
It's the cycle.
299
It goes again and again.
300
Okay, next one.
301
Number five, when there is enough water in the sky, it will beep to form clouds.
302
Now remember before I talked about this, how are clouds formed?
303
What is the process for forming clouds?
304
Why are clouds formed?
305
Because it precipitates?
306
Because it rains?
307
No. Because it flows, right?
308
It will flow to form clouds?
309
Water will flow in the sky?
310
That's weird, that doesn't make sense.
311
It will realize water can't think, right?
312
It will condense, ah, condense to form clouds.
313
Condensation is the reason that clouds are formed.
314
If there's enough water in the sky, that water will gather together and form clouds.
315
We call that the process, we call it to condense, right?
316
And we call it condensation, okay.
317
Seven, here this tissue will beep the blood.
318
So if you're bleeding, oh no, you have to absorb the blood, right?
319
I just gave you the answer, right?
320
This tissue will absorb the blood.
321
You need to not drink it in, but you need to soak it in.
322
You need to stop that blood.
323
So you use a tissue or maybe a bandage to stop the blood.
324
It will absorb the blood and then stop the bleeding.
325
Absorb, not flow, not cut, not pinch, but to absorb the blood.
326
Okay, well that wraps up the vocabulary section of our lesson today.
327
Let's take a short break, come back, and we'll do the reading together.
328
So don't go away.

Phát âm cần chú ý
Người nói dùng 48 dạng rút gọn, ví dụ we're, you're, don't. Hãy nói theo dạng ngắn đúng như bạn nghe.
- Âm “th”: bath /bɑːθ/, cloth /klɒθ/, gather /ˈɡæðɚ/, bathtub /ˈbæθtʌb/
- Âm “sh” và “zh”: shoe /ˈʃu/, tissue /ˈtɪʃ.(j)u/, gosh /ɡɑːʃ/, vacation /veɪˈkeɪ.ʃən/, associate /əˈsoʊʃi.ət/
- Từ dài — đặt trọng âm cho đúng: vocabulary /vəˈkæb.jə.lə.ɹi/, associate /əˈsoʊʃi.ət/, philosopher /fəˈlɑsəfɚ/, realization /ˌɹɪə.laɪˈzeɪ.ʃən/, precipitation /pɹɪˌsɪpɪˈteɪʃn̩/
Những âm người Việt thường gặp khó:
- Cụm phụ âm cuối — đọc đủ từng âm, đừng nuốt âm cuối: absorb /æbˈsɔɹb/, collect /ˈkɑlɪkt/, resort /ɹɪˈzɔɹt/, scientist /ˈsaɪəntəst/, pinch /pɪnt͡ʃ/
- Âm /tʃ/, /dʒ/ và /ʒ/ — tiếng Việt không có, đừng đọc thành “ch” hay “gi”: passage /ˈpæsɪd͡ʒ/, oxygen /ˈɑksɪd͡ʒən/, moisture /ˈmɔɪs.t͡ʃɚ/, pinch /pɪnt͡ʃ/, bandage /ˈbæn.dɪd͡ʒ/
- Âm /æ/ — mở miệng rộng hơn âm “e”: absorb /æbˈsɔɹb/, vocabulary /vəˈkæb.jə.lə.ɹi/, passage /ˈpæsɪd͡ʒ/, gather /ˈɡæðɚ/, wrap /ɹæp/
Cách luyện với video này
- Nghe hết video một lần, chưa cần nói, và ghi lại những từ bạn chưa biết.
- Nói đuổi từng câu ở tốc độ bình thường, lặp lại mỗi câu đến khi nhịp của bạn khớp với người nói.
- Ghi âm giọng mình rồi so với bản gốc, chú ý các từ như cloud, absorb, towel.
Phương Pháp Shadowing Là Gì?
Shadowing là kỹ thuật học ngôn ngữ có cơ sở khoa học, ban đầu được phát triển cho chương trình đào tạo phiên dịch viên chuyên nghiệp và được phổ biến rộng rãi bởi nhà đa ngôn ngữ học Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Nguyên lý cốt lõi đơn giản nhưng cực kỳ hiệu quả: bạn nghe tiếng Anh của người bản xứ và lặp lại to ngay lập tức — như một "cái bóng" (shadow) đuổi theo người nói với độ trễ chỉ 1–2 giây. Khác với luyện ngữ pháp hay học từ vựng bị động, Shadowing buộc não bộ và cơ miệng phải đồng thời xử lý và tái tạo ngôn ngữ thực tế. Các nghiên cứu khoa học xác nhận phương pháp này cải thiện đáng kể phát âm, ngữ điệu, nhịp điệu, nối âm, kỹ năng nghe và độ lưu loát khi nói — đặc biệt hiệu quả cho người luyện IELTS Speaking và muốn giao tiếp tiếng Anh tự nhiên như người bản ngữ.
