Listening one.
2
One.
3
I just got a new neighbor in the apartment upstairs for me.
4
I haven't met her yet,
5
but I can hear her TV set every night because she turns the volume up really high.
6
She should really be more considerate of her neighbors.
7
Two.
8
The house across the street from mine was sold last month,
9
and a young family moved in.
10
I think they'll really fit in well here.
11
They've already invited all their neighbors to a cookout at their house next week.
12
They seem like really nice people.
13
Three.
14
The man who lives next to me is moving.
15
I can't say that I'm too upset about it.
16
He's lived next to me for almost five years,
17
but I don't think he's spoken to me more than three or four times.
18
Sometimes I'll wave to him in the morning and he doesn't even wave back.
19
4. My neighbour Stacey is incredible.
20
You wouldn't believe all the things she manages to get done.
21
She works at a big law firm downtown and works really long hours.
22
She also volunteers on the weekends.
23
To top it off, her house is always spotless.
24
I honestly don't know where she finds the time.
25
5. I'm really lucky to have Bob as a neighbor.
26
He works in construction, and he's always nice about giving me a hand whenever I have work to do around the house.
27
He doesn't really cook, so I try to fix him a home-cooked meal every now and then to thank him.
28
6. I bought this house last year, and I love it.
29
My next-door neighbors are the only problem.
30
They have two young boys who like to play baseball in my yard.
31
Last month, they accidentally broke my window.
32
The boys apologized, but their parents didn't even offer to pay for the damages.
33
Can you believe that?
34
One.
35
Excuse me, Mrs. Coleman.
36
Can I help you with those bags?
37
They look pretty heavy.
38
Oh, thank you, Brian.
39
That's very kind of you.
40
If you could take this one,
41
it has most of the heavy stuff.
42
I can manage with this other one.
43
Sure, no problem.
44
I'm surprised you didn't just have these delivered.
45
Normally I do, but the driver for the supermarket was off today.
46
I really appreciate the help.
47
Carrying these bags up all those stairs would be hard at my age.
48
My pleasure.
49
Two.
50
Oh, hi, Cindy.
51
Was my music too loud?
52
I can turn it down.

Oh, no, it's fine.
54
I just came over to ask if you have a hammer that I can borrow.
55
A hammer?
56
Yeah.
57
My brother got me this beautiful painting for my birthday,
58
and I want to hang it on my wall.

88
Are you moving in all by yourself?
89
My brother is supposed to be helping me,
90
but I'm not sure where he is.
91
I've called him a couple of times,
92
but I haven't gotten an answer.
93
Well, if you'd like, I can help you until he gets here.
94
Oh, I couldn't ask you to do that.
95
We just met.

106

107
I know we don't know each other very well,
108
but my husband and I are going on a trip for our anniversary.
109
Anyway, we were wondering if you could pick up our mail while we're gone.
110
Uh, sure, I guess.
111
How long will you be away?
112
For two weeks, starting next Tuesday.
113

114
Great, thanks so much.

Six.

Good morning.
118
Hi, Ken.
119
Do you have a minute or two?
120
Sure.
121
What's up?
122
Do you remember about two weeks ago you came over to borrow our punch bowl for your party?
123
Oh my gosh!
124
I still haven't returned it.
125
Right.
126
I'm so sorry.
127
I'll bring it over this evening.
128
Great.
129
While you're at it, do you remember that you still also have Ryan's tool set?
130
That's right.
131
I'll bring that by too.
132
We don't mind lending you things,
133
but it would be nice to get them back.

217
Listening 3 1 So I have this neighbor, Mr. Cartwright.
218
He's an elderly man, retired.
219
Anyway, I used to think he was really nosy,
220
because he sits on his porch all day and watches the people in the neighborhood.
221
It used to really bother me.
222
But then I went on vacation last year,
223
and someone tried to break into my house while I was gone.
224
Mr. Cartwright saw them and called the police right away.
225
Now I'm glad to have someone like Mr. Cartwright in the neighborhood.
226
It's good to know that someone's watching out, you know?
227
2. Nancy is my next door neighbor.
228
She used to watch our children whenever my wife and I had to work late.
229
I always thought she was someone you could really count on,
230
and I never worried about leaving the kids with her, until last year.
231
I had to work late,
232
and my wife was on a business trip.
233
So I asked Nancy if she would mind picking up the kids from daycare,
234
and she said okay.
235
But later that day, I got a call from the daycare saying
236
that the kids had been waiting there for two and a half hours.
237
She completely forgot about them.
238
Now I just don't think I can trust her.
239
Three.
240
When Dr. Wu first moved into the neighborhood,
241
I didn't think very much of him.
242
I invited him to a couple of neighborhood events,
243
barbecues, dinner parties, you know,
244
but he would always decline.
245
He was never rude about it,
246
but he didn't seem very interested in getting to know his neighbors.
247
I just figured that he was kind of arrogant.
248
Later, however, I found out that he spends all of his free time volunteering at a free health clinic downtown.
249
That's why he never comes to any neighborhood events.
250
He just doesn't have time.
251
Four.
252
I really can't stand my neighbor Gary now.
253
The funny thing is, that wasn't always the case.
254
I used to get along with him really well.
255
He seemed like a quiet, polite guy.
256
He was friendly but minded his business.
257
Just generally a good neighbour, you know?
258
But in the last year or so he's gotten a new hobby.
259
Repairing and riding old motorcycles.
260
And these things are so loud,
261
he'll get up around 6.30 or 7am on a Saturday and start working on one of his motorcycles.
262
Like fixing the engine and then testing it.
263
He wakes up half the neighbourhood.
264
I've talked to him about it before but he just won't listen.
265

324
An argument?
325
But they've been friends for years.
326
What happened?
327
Steve was cutting some tree branches from that tree in his yard,
328
and one fell on the roof of Mr. Riley's car.
329
Oh, no. You know that car is his prized possession.
330
Right.
331
Well, Steve offered to take it to a repair shop and pay for the damages.
332
That seems reasonable.
333
Yeah, but Mr. Riley was so angry that he won't even talk to Steve anymore.

Việc luyện nói tiếng anh qua các tình huống giao tiếp này rất có ích cho việc xây dựng vốn từ vựng và giúp bạn tự tin hơn khi giao tiếp với người khác.

Ngữ pháp & Biểu hiện trong bối cảnh

Dưới đây là một số cấu trúc ngữ pháp và biểu hiện quan trọng được sử dụng trong video:

  • “I think they’ll really fit in well here.” - Sử dụng cấu trúc will để diễn tả dự đoán về tương lai.
  • “He should really be more considerate of his neighbors.” - Câu này sử dụng should để biểu thị lời khuyên.
  • “I honestly don’t know where she finds the time.” - Cảm thán thể hiện sự ngạc nhiên, dùng honestly để nhấn mạnh cảm xúc.
  • “Can I help you with those bags?” - Một cách diễn đạt lịch sự khi đề nghị sự giúp đỡ.

Các cạm bẫy phát âm thường gặp

Khi xem video, có một số từ và cách phát âm có thể khiến bạn gặp khó khăn. Ví dụ:

  • “considerate” - từ này có thể khó phát âm với âm 's' và 't' gần nhau.
  • “apartment” - chú trọng vào âm 't' và 'm' trong từ này để nói đúng và rõ ràng.
  • “neighborhood” - cần chú ý đến âm 'gh' và cách phát âm liên kết giữa các âm.

Để khắc phục vấn đề này, bạn có thể áp dụng kỹ thuật shadowspeak trong shadowing tiếng anh, giúp bạn luyện tập phát âm và làm quen với ngữ điệu tự nhiên. Hãy kiên nhẫn và thực hành nhiều lần để cải thiện kỹ năng phát âm.

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.
