Hello English learners and welcome to EnglishPod.
2
My name is Marco.
3
And I'm Erika.
4
Hey Erika, how are you today?
5
Marco, I'm doing really well and I'm really looking forward to today's lesson.
6
Well, so am I because here at EnglishPod we're giving you real English.
7
Everyday English.
8
Exactly, English that you hear in movies or in TV shows.
9
This is English people actually use.
10
So Erika, what is our topic for today?
11
Well today we're talking about computer viruses.
12
Perfect!
13
So I think it's time for us to take a look at our preview.
14
Vocabulary preview.
15
Okay, today we've got two words to preview.
16
The first word is virus.
17
Virus.
18
Virus.
19
Virus.
20
So if your computer has a computer virus, it means your computer is sick, right?
21
Actually, a computer virus is a program that is designed to harm or to damage your computer.
22
Oh, I see.
23
Okay.
24
Well, thank you for being so technical.
25
That's the technical explanation.
26
Okay, let's take a look at our second word for our preview today, and that would be froze.
27
Froze.
28
Froze.
29
Froze.
30
So if your computer froze, it means that...
31
Your computer stopped working.
32
Your applications or your programs stop working and you just can't do anything.
33
Your computer's broken.
34
Okay, great.
35
So let's listen to our dialogue.
36
It's going to be a little bit fast, but...
37
Don't worry if you don't understand everything.
38
At the end of this podcast, you'll understand everything.
39
Perfect.
40
Let's listen.
41
Oh, great.
42
This stupid computer froze again.
43
It's the third time today!
44
Hey Samuel, can you come take a look at my PC?
45
It's acting up again.
46
It must have a virus or something.
47
Just give me a second, I'll be right up.
48
I ran a virus scan on your computer and it turns out that you have a lot of infected files.
49
But I'm quite careful when I'm browsing the internet.
50
I have no idea how I could have picked up a virus.
51
Well, you have to make sure their antivirus software is updated regularly.
52
Yours wasn't up to date.
53
That's probably what was causing your problems.
54
Okay, anything else?
55
Yeah, try not to kick or hit the computer.
56
Um, yeah, sorry about that.
57
Well, I completely understand this guy.
58
When my computer freezes, I kick it and punch it and do everything to it.
59
Well, I hope you don't punch it too hard, Marco.
60
Well, it's still working, so it's alright.
61
Okay.
62
Alright, let's take a look at our language takeaway.
63
Language takeaway.
64
In today's language takeaway, we have two words.
65
The first word for today is infected file.
66
Infected file.
67
Infected file.
68
Infected file.
69
And what is an infected file?
70
An infected file is a file in your computer that has a virus in it.
71
Ah, perfect.
72
That's really clear.
73
What is our second word for the language takeaway today?
74
Our second word is not up to date.
75
Not up to date.
76
Not up to date.
77
And what is it when something is not up to date?
78
It means it doesn't have all the most recent information.
79
Okay, perfect.
80
Now let's listen to some examples.
81
Example 1.
82
I need to buy a new computer because mine isn't up to date.
83
Example 2 I can't find the street.
84
Are you sure this map is up to date?
85
Example 3 Sarah has just finished the reports and all the information is up to date.
86
Okay, that was pretty clear.
87
You know, you can also use this phrase positively.
88
You can say, up to date.
89
Okay, for example, we can say, this is a new map.
90
This is the most up to date map.
91
Exactly, or if I bought a new computer, I could say, I just got a new computer.
92
All my software is up to date.
93
Okay, great.
94
So now let's take a look at some phrases.
95
And it's time for putting it all together.
96
Putting it together.
97
Okay, so Samuel said a really great phrase.
98
He said, I'll be right up.
99
I'll be right up.
100
I'll be right up.
101
I'll be right up.
102
Now, we can use this phrase in a lot of different situations, so let's listen to some examples.
103
Example one.
104
Can you help me with my computer?
105
I'll be right there.
106
Example two.
107
Come downstairs.
108
Dinner is ready.
109
I'll be right down.
110
Example 3.
111
Hurry up!
112
I need to use the bathroom!
113
I'll be right out.
114
Okay, really great and clear examples, right?
115
Yeah, you know that phrase, I'll be right out?
116
I used to hear this all the time when I was young.
117
Really?
118
How come?
119
Well, I have two sisters and we were always fighting for the bathroom.
120
So someone was always saying, just a minute, I'll be right out.
121
Ah, yes, that's common.
122
I had that too when I was young.
123
Okay, now our second phrase is, it turns out that.
124
It turns out that.
125
It turns out that.
126
It turns out that.
127
This is a great phrase.
128
You can use it in many different situations.
129
Marco, can you give us an example?
130
Sure, for example, I can say, Frank didn't come to work today and it turns out that he was sick.
131
Yep, or I could say, oh, I've been feeling really sick recently.
132
Why?
133
It turns out that I'm pregnant.
134
Oh my god, are you really pregnant?
135
No, I'm not, I'm just kidding.
136
Alright, because, okay, so it's time for us to listen to our dialogue again, but this time it'll be...
137
A little bit slower.
138
Alright.
139
Oh great.
140
This stupid computer froze again.
141
That's the third time today.
142
Hey Samuel, can you come take a look at my PC?
143
It's acting up again.
144
It must have a virus or something.
145
Just give me a second.
146
I'll be right up.
147
I ran a virus scan on your computer, and it turns out that you have a lot of infected files.
148
But I'm quite careful when I'm browsing the Internet.
149
I have no idea how I could have picked up a virus.
150
Well, you have to make sure that your antivirus software is updated regularly.
151
Yours wasn't up to date.
152
That's probably what was causing your problems.
153
Okay, anything else?
154
Yeah, try not to kick or hit the computer.
155
Um, yeah, sorry about that.
156
Okay, that was a lot more clear this time.
157
Definitely, yeah, I understood a lot more.
158
Okay, so now it's time to look at Fluency Builder.
159
Erica, why don't you explain what Fluency Builder is?
160
In Fluency Builder, we give you some great, useful phrases to help you express your ideas clearly.
161
Okay, great.
162
So let's look at Fluency Builder.
163
Fluency Builder.
164
Okay, so in this dialogue, we know his computer wasn't working.
165
Right.
166
So many students would probably say his computer was acting strangely.
167
His computer isn't working properly.
168
Exactly.
169
And that's perfect and that's fine.
170
Yeah, but there's a really great way to say it that we heard in the dialogue.
171
It's acting up again.
172
It's acting up again.
173
I love this phrase, it's acting up.
174
Yep, it sounds really natural.
175
It sounds really natural.
176
Okay, we're ready to listen to our dialogue a third time, but this time...
177
It'll be at the normal speed.
178
Try and see if you can hear these key words.
179
Oh great, this stupid computer froze again!
180
That's the third time today!
181
Hey Samuel, can you come take a look at my PC?
182
It's acting up again.
183
It must have a virus or something.
184
Just give me a second, I'll be right up.
185
I ran a virus scan on your computer and it turns out that you have a lot of infected files.
186
But I'm quite careful when I'm browsing the internet.
187
I have no idea how I could have picked up a virus.
188
Well, you have to make sure that your antivirus software is updated regularly.
189
Yours wasn't up to date.
190
That's probably what was causing your problems.
191
Okay, anything else?
192
Yeah, try not to kick or hit the computer.
193
Um, yeah, sorry about that.
194
So Marco, I really think that my computer actually has a virus now.
195
Really?
196
How come?
197
Because I have been turning on my computer, and then suddenly it turns off by itself.
198
It shuts down by itself.
199
Yeah, that sounds like a virus.
200
But I ran a virus scan and there was no problem.
201
Well, maybe your antivirus software isn't up to date.
202
Yeah, I guess I'd better call Samuel.
203
Yeah, you can call Samuel to fix it.
204
Yeah.
205
All right, folks, we're out of time now, but be sure to go to our website at EnglishPod.com where you can leave all your questions and comments.
206
So stay tuned for our next great lesson.
207
And until next time, goodbye.
208
Bye.

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。
