跟读练习: Daily English Conversation Practice | How to Talk About Hobbies | A1 English | Mr. English Channel - 通过视频学习英语口语

Hello everyone and welcome back to Mr. English Channel, where learning English is easy and fun.

I'm Emily.

Hello Emily, and hello to all of our friends listening at home or in the car or maybe at the gym.

It is so good to be here with you today.

I am so happy today, Paul.

Do you know why?

Hmm, let me think.

Is it because you have a new coffee?

Well, yes, I always love my coffee, but that is not the only reason.

I am happy because we are talking about a very fun topic today.

Oh, I love fun topics.

What is it?

Today, we are talking about hobbies.

Hobbies?

Wow, that is a great topic.

Everyone has a hobby, right?

Or maybe they want a new one.

Exactly.

Hobbies make life interesting.

They are the things we do for fun when we are not working or studying.

That sounds perfect.

I have many things I like to do for fun.

I know you do, Paul.

But wait, before we start our big conversation, we have to ask our friends for a small favor.

Oh, yes, that is very important.

If you like our podcast, please click that like button right now.

It is a big help for us.

Yes, it really is.

And please subscribe to Mr. English Channel.

We want you to see every new episode.

And don't forget to share this with your friends.

If you have a friend who is learning English, send them this video.

Learning together is more fun.

Thank you, everyone.

Okay, Paul, let's talk about hobbies.

What is a hobby you really like?

Hmm.

Well, my favorite hobby is cooking.

I love being in the kitchen.

Cooking!

That is a great hobby.

You can make delicious things.

Yes, I love to try new things.

Actually, I have a small story from last night.

Oh, tell me.

Did you make something special?

Well, I tried to make a big chocolate cake.

I wanted it to be perfect.

I had the flour, the eggs, and the chocolate.

Mmm, chocolate cake sounds amazing.

What happened?

Well, I was very busy.

I was listening to music and dancing in the kitchen.

I was having so much fun.

But then I made a mistake.

Oh, no. What kind of mistake?

I looked at the white powder on the table.

I thought, this is sugar.

So I put a lot of it into the cake. And?

Was it not sugar?

No. It was salt.

I put two cups of salt in my chocolate cake.

Oh, Paul.

Salt cake?

That sounds terrible.

It was.

I took a big bite and, ugh, it was so salty.

My face went like this.

I had to throw the whole cake away. That is so funny.

But that is okay.

Mistakes are part of hobbies, right?

Exactly.

I learned a lesson.

Always taste the white powder before you put it in the cake.

Yes, that is a very good lesson.

So you like cooking?

Yes, I like cooking.

But how about you, Emily?

What do you do for fun?

Well, I have a new hobby.

I really love photography.

Photography?

Wow.

Do you have a big, expensive camera?

No, not really.

I just use my phone.

Modern phones have great cameras.

I love taking pictures of nature.

Nature is beautiful.

What do you like to take pictures of?

I love flowers, trees, and the sky.

Last Saturday, I went to the big park near my house.

It was a beautiful sunny day.

That sounds lovely.

Did you find anything interesting to photograph?

Yes.

I saw a very beautiful bird.

It was bright red and very small.

I wanted to get a perfect picture of it.

100

Oh, birds are hard to photograph.

101

They move so fast.

102

They do.

103

I moved very slowly.

104

I didn't want to scare the bird.

105

I held my phone up.

106

I was ready.

107

I was about to click the button. And?

108

Did you get the photo?

109

No!

110

Just at that moment my phone died.

111

The battery was at zero percent.

112

Oh no!

113

The perfect bird and a dead phone!

114

I was so sad.

115

I just stood there and watched the bird fly away.

116

It was a beautiful moment, but I have no photo of it.

117

Well, at least you have the memory in your head.

118

That is a kind of photo, too.

119

You are right, Paul.

120

It was still a nice day in the park.

121

You know, photography and cooking are very different, but they both make us feel happy.

122

Yes, they do.

123

I think hobbies are good because they help us relax.

124

When I am taking photos, I don't think about work.

125

Me too.

126

When I'm in the kitchen, and not using salt instead of sugar, I feel very calm.

127

Do you have any other hobbies, Paul?

128

Maybe something more active?

129

Well, I like to play the guitar, but I'm not very good at it yet.

130

The guitar!

131

That is so cool!

132

Why do you say you're not good?

133

My fingers are too slow, and sometimes I play the wrong note.

134

It sounds like a cat crying.

135

Everyone starts that way.

136

How long do you practice?

137

I try to practice for 20 minutes every day.

138

My neighbor is very nice, but I think he doesn't like my music.

139

Why do you say that?

140

Well, yesterday I was practicing a loud song.

141

After five minutes, he knocked on the wall.

142

Oh, maybe he was just dancing to your music?

143

I don't think so.

144

I think he wanted to sleep.

145

But I will keep practicing.

146

I want to play a song for you one day, Emily.

147

I would love that.

148

Maybe a song about a salty cake?

149

Yes, a very salty song.

150

That is a great idea.

151

You know, Paul, music is a wonderful hobby.

152

It's like a new language.

153

It really is, and it is fun to learn something new.

154

If you are still listening, comment GITAR below.

155

We want to see who is still with us.

156

Yes, comment GITAR in the comments.

157

We love to see your messages.

158

So, Emily, we talked about photography and cooking and music.

159

What about sports?

160

Do you like any sports?

161

I am not very good at sports like football or basketball, but I love walking.

162

Is walking a hobby? Of course.

163

Many people love walking.

164

It is very healthy.

165

I like to go for long walks on the weekend.

166

Sometimes I walk for two hours.

167

Two hours?

168

Wow, that is a long time.

169

Do you walk in the city?

170

No, I prefer the woods.

171

I love the smell of the trees and the sound of the wind.

172

It is so quiet and peaceful.

173

I agree.

174

I like walking too, but I have a funny story about that.

175

Another story?

176

You have many stories today, Paul?

177

Well, life is full of stories.

178

Two weeks ago, I went for a walk in a new forest.

179

It was very big and very green.

180

Did you bring a map?

181

A map?

182

No. I thought, I know the way.

183

It is easy.

184

I think I know what happened.

185

Yes.

186

I walked and walked.

187

I saw beautiful flowers, I saw a small river.

188

But then the sun started to go down.

189

It was getting dark.

190

Oh no, Paul.

191

Were you lost?

192

I was.

193

I looked left, I looked right, every tree looked the same.

194

I was walking in circles.

195

That is scary.

196

What did you do?

197

I tried to use my phone, but there was no signal, no internet.

198

No internet in the woods?

199

That is a nightmare.

200

It was.

201

I started to feel a little nervous, but then I heard a sound.

202

Woof, woof.

203

A dog?

204

Yes.

205

A big, friendly dog appeared, and his owner was a tall man with a flashlight.

206

He said, Are you lost?

207

What did you say?

208

I said, no, I am just looking at this tree.

209

It is a very nice tree.

210

Paul, you are too proud.

211

Well, he knew I was lost.

212

He showed me the way back to my car.

213

The dog was very happy to help.

214

That is a lucky ending.

215

Maybe your next hobby should be how to use a compass.

216

Yes, or how to follow a dog.

217

That is a better hobby for me.

218

You are so funny.

219

But seriously, walking is a great way to stay active.

220

It is.

221

You know, I also started a very small hobby at home.

222

It is very quiet.

223

Oh?

224

What is it?

225

Gardening.

226

But only on my balcony.

227

I have three small plants.

228

Gardening!

229

That is so relaxing.

230

What kind of plants do you have?

231

I have some basil, some mint, and a small cactus.

232

Mmm, basil and mint are great for cooking.

233

You can use them in your kitchen.

234

Yes, that is the plan.

235

I want to use my own herbs in my food.

236

But the cactus, the cactus is just for decoration.

237

Do you talk to your plants?

238

Some people say that helps them grow.

239

Well, maybe a little.

240

I say good morning to the basil every day. That is so cute.

241

Does the basil answer you?

242

Not yet, but I am waiting.

243

If the basil talks back, I will tell you first, Emily.

244

Please do.

245

That would be a very big surprise.

246

You know, Emily, listening to podcasts is also a hobby for many people.

247

That is true.

248

Our listeners are using their hobby to learn English.

249

That is fantastic.

250

It is the best kind of hobby.

251

You have fun and you learn at the same time.

252

Yes.

253

And it's important to remember that you don't have to be perfect at your hobby.

254

Exactly.

255

I am not a perfect cook.

256

I make salty cakes.

257

And I'm not a perfect photographer.

258

I forget to charge my phone.

259

And that is okay.

260

The goal is to enjoy the time.

261

Yes, exactly.

262

Hobbies are for us.

263

They are our happy time.

264

I agree.

265

I feel much better when I spend time on my hobbies.

266

Me too.

267

Well, Paul, we talked about a lot of things today.

268

We did.

269

It was a very busy episode.

270

Let's look back at our chat.

271

We talked about cooking and your salt cake.

272

Yes, and we talked about your photography and the red bird in the park.

273

We also talked about your guitar practice and your neighbor who knocks on the wall.

274

And we can't forget my walk in the woods where I got lost and a dog saved me.

275

And your balcony garden with your talking basil.

276

It was a lot of fun.

277

I think our listeners have many hobbies too.

278

I am sure they do.

279

Everyone, what is your hobby?

280

We want to know.

281

Yes, please leave a comment below.

282

Tell us, my hobby is… Do you like sports?

283

Or maybe you like reading? Or painting?

284

Oh, painting is a great one.

285

I tried painting once.

286

Really?

287

How was it?

288

Well, I wanted to paint a beautiful mountain, but in the end, it looked like a giant blue potato.

289

A blue potato.

290

You are an artist, Paul.

291

A very unique artist.

292

Thank you, Emily.

293

I think I will stay in the kitchen for now.

294

That is a good idea.

295

Well, everyone, thank you so much for listening to our chat today.

296

Yes, thank you.

297

It was a pleasure to talk with you all.

304

Practice is the key to learning.

305

It really is.

306

Well, I think it is time for my next coffee.

307

And it is time for me to go check on my basil.

308

Tell them I said hello.

309

I will.

310

Goodbye, everyone.

311

Bye for now.

312

See you in the next episode.

313

Bye-bye.

什么是跟读法？

跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
