Hello and welcome back to English with Lucy.
2
- This is day two of my five -day shadowing challenge.
3
Today's focus is grammar, and in under 30 minutes, you'll strengthen some structures that make your English sound clear and natural.
4
If this is your first day joining the challenge, make sure you start with day one so that you can follow the story from the beginning.
5
There's a link in the description that takes you to the full five day shadowing challenge playlist.
6
where you can watch all the lessons in order and track your progress as you go.
7
And I have some great news.
8
Day two of your free consolidation course is now unlocked.
9
I've prepared some interactive grammar exercises with instant feedback, so there's no guessing and no waiting.
10
These activities go even deeper than today's lesson, giving you more examples, more contexts,
11
and more chances to see how the grammar structures work in real life.
12
If this is your first day here, welcome.
13
The consolidation course is completely free, and you'll get immediate access to days one and two.
14
You'll find the link to join for free in the description, or you can scan the QR code on screen now.
15
Once you're in, everything unlocks automatically.
16
I think you're going to love it.
17
And a quick reminder, when you join the consolidation course, you also automatically join my Black Friday waiting list.
18
This is my biggest sale of the year with the best discounts I offer.
19
If you're serious about reaching the B1, B2 or C1 level, this is the sale you've been waiting for.
20
You'll be the first to know when it goes live.
21
Right, let's start today's grammar lesson.
22
We will start with B1, the intermediate level.
23
"Shadow me" or "Listen, pause and repeat after me".
24
I've been trying to take the train more often recently.
25
So, I booked a ticket from London to Inverness.
26
When the day finally arrived, I boarded at King's Cross.
27
And as we picked up speed, I watched London disappear behind me.
28
Okay, what tense can you see in the first clause?
29
It's the present perfect continuous.
30
The structure is subject plus have been plus ing verb.
31
We can use this tense to talk about an action that began in the past and continues up to now.
32
The focus is on the ongoing, unfinished nature of the action.
33
In fast speech, we tend to contract 'I have' to I've.
34
and pronounce 'been' then I've been.
35
I've been trying.
36
In your Day 2 consolidation course exercises,
37
You'll practice the difference between present perfect simple and present perfect continuous with interactive activities.
38
I've designed these activities to help you really understand when to use each tense, so that you stop second guessing yourself.
39
Okay, here's the next part of our story.
40
Shadow or repeat.
41
If I'd known the route was so beautiful, I'd have booked a window seat.
42
the journey which took around eight hours, passed surprisingly quickly.
43
Before I knew it.
44
I was in Inverness.
45
Okay, which conditional structure is in the first sentence?
46
It is the third conditional.
47
The basic structure is 'if' + 'subject' + 'past perfect',
48
comma, subject plus would have plus past participle.
49
The past perfect tense is 'had' plus past participle.
50
So it's, if I had known, I would have booked.
51
We use the third conditional to imagine a different past.
52
often to express regrets in the listening passage i had was contracted to eyed And then there was a double contraction.
53
'I would have' is contracted to 'I'd have'.
54
Did you notice that both had and would are contracted to apostrophe D.
55
When you want to say or write the full form, be careful to use the correct word.
56
The next structure is a relative clause in this second sentence.
57
"Which took around eight hours" is a non -defining relative clause.
58
It gives extra but non -essential information about the journey.
59
We can remove the clause and the sentence still makes perfect sense.
60
The clause starts with the relative pronoun 'which' and is separated from the rest of the sentence with commas.
61
When speaking, I pause slightly before and after saying this clause.
62
"Shadow me" or "Listen, pause and repeat after me".
63
If I'd known the route was so beautiful, I'd have booked a window seat.
64
the journey which took around eight hours, passed surprisingly quickly.
65
Before I knew it, I was in Inverness.
66
If you're working towards B1, my beautiful British English B1 programme teaches grammar differently.
67
You'll build solid foundations through 31 expertly designed grammar lessons with hundreds of interactive exercises that give you instant feedback.
68
follow Grace's story as she moves to Australia, and watch how present perfect continuous, conditionals, modal verbs, reported speech,
69
and relative clauses actually work in real conversations.
70
No isolated rules to memorise.
71
You learn these structures naturally as Grace navigates her new job, makes friends and explores her new home.
72
The grammar clicks because you're living it through her experiences.
73
By the end, these structures feel effortless, not forced.
74
And with Black Friday coming up, you'll soon get the chance to join this transformative 12 -week course for a fraction of the price with huge bonuses.
75
You won't believe it.
76
Okay, let's move on to B2, the upper intermediate level of English.
77
Shadow me now if you can.
78
But the adventure was far from over.
79
All I could think was: "By the time I reach my cottage,
80
'I'll have been travelling for more than 13 hours.' I picked up my rental car and I was off.
81
Okay, we have a beautiful B2 level structure to focus on here.
82
The future perfect continuous.
83
The basic structure is 'subject' plus 'will have been' plus 'ing verb'.
84
I will have been travelling.
85
We use this tense to talk about an action in progress that will continue to a specific point in the future.
86
The continuous tense emphasises the duration.
87
Thirteen hours is a long time.
88
And did you notice another double contraction?
89
I will have became I love two syllables with a schwa in the second.
90
I love.
91
And again, in fast speech we usually say: bin.
92
I'll have been rather than been.
93
In your day two consolidation course, You'll work through exercises comparing the future perfect simple and future perfect continuous.
94
These can be tricky tenses, but the interactive format makes them so much clearer.
95
You'll get instant feedback on every answer.
96
Shadow me again now and give that double contraction a go.
97
But the adventure was far from over.
98
all I could think was: "By the time I reach my cottage,
99
'I'll have been travelling for more than 13 hours.' "I picked up my rental car." And I was off.
100
Okay, here's the next part of our story at B2 level.
101
I'm so used to endless traffic jams in London that I couldn't believe how quickly I got out into the country.
102
And "The further I drove, the more beautiful it got.
103
Okay, first, a structure that confuses even my advanced students.
104
To be used to.
105
If you are used to something, it is normal for you.
106
"Be used to" is followed by a noun or a gerund.
107
I'm used to traffic jams.
108
or I'm used to sitting in traffic.
109
The next sentence contained an interesting comparative structure.
110
we can see the plus comparative comma the plus comparative further and more beautiful are the comparatives.
111
This structure shows a cause and effect.
112
One thing happens, I drive further, and something changes in response.
113
It gets more beautiful.
114
The two clauses are separated by a comma, so when speaking, we pause slightly between them.
115
Shadow me again now.
116
I'm so used to endless traffic jams in London that I couldn't believe how quickly I got out into the country.
117
And, "The further I drove, the more beautiful it got.
118
So, do you think you're ready for B2?
119
My beautiful British English B2 programme gives you 24 comprehensive grammar lessons covering complex conditionals,
120
Question tags, relative and participle clauses, the passive voice, cleft sentences, and so much more.
121
you'll get hundreds of targeted exercises with downloadable PDFs that break down exactly how these structures work.
122
Follow Ryan as he adapts to British life and you'll see the future perfect continuous,
123
advanced adverb placement and sophisticated verb patterns used naturally as he finds a flat, navigates London and builds friendships.
124
Each week builds confidence until higher level grammar flows effortlessly.
125
That is learning grammar the right way.
126
And when Black Friday week arrives, this programme will be part of something very special.
127
huge savings, massive bonuses, and life changing lessons.
128
everything you need to make English flow naturally.
129
Okay, we're moving on to C1 now, the advanced level of English.
130
Shadow me if you can.
131
'What struck me as I drove along was how changeable the weather is there.' One moment it was really dull.
132
And the next, it was bright sunshine.
133
The drive wound past glens and locks, On and on.
134
Okay, there's a lovely structure at the start of that passage, a cleft sentence.
135
It starts with 'what' followed by a clause.
136
Then we have the linking verb 'to be', 'was'.
137
and another clause.
138
We tend to use cleft structures for emphasis, and in this case, the focus is on the information in the second half of the sentence,
139
which is often new or interesting.
140
In your Day 2 consolidation course materials, we dive deeper into cleft structures with clear examples and practice exercises.
141
This is advanced grammar that makes you sound sophisticated and natural.
142
The exercises help you better understand these structures so they become instinctive.
143
Shout in me again now.
144
'What struck me as I drove along was how changeable the weather is there.' One moment it was really dull.
145
And the next, it was bright sunshine.
146
The drive wound past glens and locks, On and on.
147
We'll listen to the final part of our story now.
148
Just as I was on the verge of giving up ever finding it,
149
"The cottage came into view." Little did I realise how far it was from civilisation.
150
And, of course, I'd forgotten to buy any food.
151
I wolfed down a bag of crisps and tumbled into bed.
152
Okay, first, let's look at to be on the verge of.
153
This means to be very close to experiencing or doing something.
154
We often say someone is on the verge of tears, meaning about to cry.
155
At C1 level, you move beyond simply using tenses to discuss time and add in other advanced structures.
156
Next, we have a super advanced grammar point.
157
In the phrase 'little did I realize', What do you notice about the word order?
158
Well, the subject -verb order of an affirmative sentence is inverted like in a question.
159
When we use negative or limiting adverbs like little at the beginning of a sentence, we invert the word order.
160
Inversion is used for emphasis.
161
When there's no auxiliary verb, we use do or did, like in our example.
162
Another sentence like this: Never had I eaten anything so delicious.
163
Shadow me again now, just as I was on the verge of giving up ever finding it.
164
"The cottage came into view." Little did I realise how far it was from civilisation.
165
And, of course, I'd forgotten to buy any food.
166
I wolfed down a bag of crisps.
167
and tumbled into bed.
168
At the C1 level, grammar becomes an art form.
169
My beautiful British English C1 programme delivers 24 precisely designed advanced grammar lessons that explore topics like paraphrasing,
170
compound adjectives, negative inversions, subjunctive mood and lots more.
171
You'll master the subtle differences that change meaning, tone and impact.
172
Follow Lottie through 12 weeks as she builds a new life in a British village, and you'll discover why fluent speakers choose specific structures in debates,
173
emails, presentations and casual conversations.
174
with extensive exercises, downloadable grammar guides, and opportunities for teacher feedback, you don't just learn how advanced structures are formed,
175
you understand the precise meaning they convey.
176
By the end, you'll use advanced grammar not because you studied it, but because it's become part of how you communicate.
177

為什麼要通過這個影片練習口語？
在進行英語學習時，尤其是口語方面，跟讀練習是一個極為重要的環節。通過本影片中的跟讀挑戰，您可以結合實際語境來增強自己的口語表達能力。這個影片不僅適合初學者，也為中級學員提供了豐富的內容，讓您在短短幾天內，通過不斷地模仿，提升語言的流利度和準確性。參加這樣的shadowspeak練習，可以幫助您掌握正確的發音、語調及語法結構，使您的口語更加自然。
語法與表達的上下文
在影片中，講師使用了一些關鍵的語法結構，以下是幾個重點分析：
- 現在完成進行時（have been + ing）：通過句子“I've been trying to take the train more often recently.”，您可以看到這個時態強調了一個從過去開始並持續到現在的動作。這類句型有助於描述持續的行為，適合在雅思口語練習中使用。
- 第三條件句（if + 主語 + 過去完成時）：例如“If I had known the route was so beautiful, I would have booked a window seat.”，這個句型用於假設過去的情況，有助於您在口語中進行更復雜的表達。
- 簡單過去時 (過去式動詞): 在描述事件發生的時間時，簡單過去時常常用到，例如“the journey took around eight hours.” 這種句式在敘述故事或經歷時非常常見。
掌握這些結構可以幫助您在英語口語練習中，提升表達的清晰度與邏輯性。
常見發音難點
在本影片中，部分詞彙的發音可能會給學習者帶來挑戰。以下是一些建議需要注意的發音難點：
- “have”與“been”: 當快速說話時，常常會將“have”縮短為“’ve”，而“been”則緊隨其後，這可能導致初學者更難以掌握。此外，要注意在不同的情境中這些詞的輕重音轉換。
- “window seat”: 在快速對話中，“window seat”可能聽起來更像是一個單詞。因此，練習時可以多次重複這個短語，以確保聽清和練習發音。
為避免這些發音上可能遇到的坑，建議在shadowing site上進行聽力和發音的反覆練習，以逐步克服這些挑戰。
影片中的語法
說話人最常用的結構，並附上影片中的原話：
| 結構 | 影片中的用法 |
|---|---|
| 現在完成進行時 have/has been + -ing — 以前開始、現在仍在繼續的動作 | you've been waiting · I've been trying |
| 被動語態 be + 過去分詞 — 強調發生了什麼，而不是誰做的 | is now unlocked · had was contracted · is contracted |
| 現在完成時 have/has + 過去分詞 — 過去發生但與現在仍有關聯的事 | I've prepared · have been · I've been |
什麼是跟讀法？
跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧，最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓，並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大：您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同，跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性，語調，節奏，連讀，聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
