Hello everyone and welcome to EnglishPod.
2
My name is Marco.
3
My name is Catherine and Marco,
4
I can tell you right now,
5
I'm already hungry just thinking about our lesson today.
6
That's right.
7
Today we have another food lesson.
8
Our world cuisine lesson for today is all about Mexican food.
9
Okay, Mexican food comes from the country Mexico,
10
but also parts of the United States,
11
like Texas, have something called Tex-Mex.
12
So you're going to hear a lot about these kinds of foods there.
13
Let's check out today's dialogue.
14
Hello sir, welcome to Pistolera Restaurant.
15
May I take your order?
16
Yes, I would like the chicken cheese enchiladas with a side of guacamole.
17
Sorry sir, but we ran out of chicken.
18
May I suggest our delicious beef burritos or cheese quesadillas?
19
Both include a side of guacamole and jalapenos.
20
Sure, I'll have the burrito.
21
Do you have nachos?
22
Of course, sir.
23
Our nachos come with melted cheese and chili.
24
Sounds good.
25
Would you like anything to drink?
26
Sure, I'll have a Corona.
27
Alright, we're back.
28
So a lot of great dishes from Mexico.
29
Let's take a closer look at some of those on language takeaway.
30
Language takeaway.
31
So first up, Marco, we have the word enchilada.
32
That's right.
33
We have some chicken cheese enchilada.
34
So this dish has chicken and cheese,
35
but an enchilada, what is that?
36
Okay, so it's basically a wrap that is covered in cheese, right?
37
That's right.
38
So it has a base of a flour tortilla.
39
So a tortilla is like a wrap, as you said.
40
Let's consider it as flat bread.
41
Very thin.
42
Very thin.
43
And it rolls up and it's covered with cheese and inside it has chicken.
44
Very, very good.
45
That's right.
46
And just a warning, you're going to hear me say the American pronunciation, enchilada.
47
And you're going to hear Marco say a more appropriate...
48
A little bit with a more Hispanic accent to it.
49
That's right.
50
So the second one we've got is guacamole.
51
Guacamole.
52
That's right.
53
We say guacamole.
54
And this is from the avocado fruit.
55
That's right.
56
Avocados are green fruits.
57
They have a skin.
58
So you take the skin off and you usually mix guacamole with other ingredients.
59
Right.
60
It has a little bit of lemon, onion, tomato.
61
Maybe a little spice.
62
Really good stuff.
63
So, yeah, it comes from that fruit that you said.
64
And it's kind of like a paste, right?
65
Yeah.
66
It's something that we often use as a dip.
67
So I can dip my potato chips or my tortilla chips in it.
68
Or I can use it as a sauce.
69
All right.
70
Very good.
71
And our next and probably one of the most popular dishes in the Mexican cuisine world is a beef burrito.
72
Burrito.
73
So a burrito is another kind of wrap.
74
We have a tortilla, like you said earlier.
75
And inside there are many different things.
76
So usually some rice and some beans and some meat,
77
maybe beef or chicken.
78
That's right.
79
So consider it kind of like a sandwich, more or less.
80
But in a blanket instead of in bread.
81
Exactly, in a blanket.
82
And then also we have cheese quesadillas.
83
Now also these are made from the same blanket of tortilla.
84
That's right.
85
So this thin tortilla, this flour tortilla is put on top and on bottom.
86
And inside you have some cheese, some melted cheese.
87
Or other times you can have cheese and chicken.
88
And usually you find it's a circle,
89
but it's cut into four pieces.
90
So it looks like pieces of a pie.
91
That's right.
92
And actually what you do is you heat it up in a pan so the cheese inside melts.
93
And it's very, very delicious.
94
It is.
95
And sometimes you have this with a side of jalapeno.
96
Okay.
97
This is some type of vegetable, I would guess.
98
It's a pepper.
99
It's a pepper.
100
Right.
101
So this is a very,
102
very spicy pepper that people often use to make things taste hot.
103
That's right.
104
So you can see them.
105
They're usually green and they're very, very spicy.
106
So if you bite into one, it'll burn your mouth.
107
It will.
108
And sometimes people like to put these on our next dish.
109
What's the next dish, Marco?
110
We have some nachos.
111
Okay, this is a classic Tex-Mex dish, like I was saying.
112
So a lot of Americans love to eat this.
113
And nachos are basically a plate of tortilla chips with what on top?
114
Usually it has melted cheese and maybe some chili,
115
like we see in the dialogue.
116
So it will kind of just consider a plate full of these chips kind of they look like potato chips
117
But they're made out of flour and on top a lot of cheese
118
and maybe some meat or some chili on top And Americans also like to put sour cream on top.
119
Oh, yes sour cream is very popular on this dish
120
So a lot of dishes these are probably the most popular ones
121
that you can find at most Mexican restaurants and also in Tex-Mex style
122
So why don't we take another look at everything and we'll be back in a bit with Fluency Builder.
123
Hello sir, welcome to Pistolera Restaurant.
124
May I take your order?
125
Yes, I would like the chicken cheese enchiladas with a side of guacamole.
126
Sorry sir, but we ran out of chicken.
127
May I suggest our delicious beef burritos or cheese quesadillas?
128
Both include a side of guacamole and jalapenos jalapenos.
129
Sure, I'll have the burrito.
130
Do you have nachos?
131
Of course, sir.
132
Our nachos come with melted cheese and chili.
133
Sounds good.
134
Would you like anything to drink?
135
Sure, I'll have a Corona.
136
All right, so Marco, today we have only three things to talk about Influency Builder.
137
The first one is something that the waiter said to the customer.
138
It was to run out of.
139
That's right.
140
He wanted some chicken cheese enchiladas but unfortunately they ran out of chicken.
141
So the phrasal verb here is to run out of.
142
That's right and we heard the past tense.
143
So unfortunately we ran out of chicken.
144
This means that we no longer have chicken.
145
We sold all of the chicken.
146
That's right.
147
So for example if you're in your car
148
and all of a sudden you run out of gasoline it means your car will stop running.
149
That's very bad situation.
150
So to run out of means to not have anymore.
151
That's right.
152
So you ran out of money.
153
Maybe you have no more money.
154
Another bad situation.
155
Alright.
156
So instead he ordered a burrito that included a side of guacamole and jalapenos.
157
Okay so the reason we included this is because it's important to remember this as a phrase.
158
A side of.
159
That's right.
160
So this burrito comes with a side of guacamole
161
or this burrito has a side of beans
162
so a side of means a small portion a little bit
163
that's right the most important part of a side of is
164
that it doesn't come in the dish
165
or inside the burrito let's say it just comes separately on a separate little plate
166
or it can come next to yeah next to the main dish
167
so if the main dish is tacos you can say I want tacos with a side of black beans,
168
you would get the black beans in a little bowl next to you.
169
But that's not the main thing.
170
Exactly, exactly.
171
So a side of.
172
Now for our last phrase,
173
when we talked about the nachos,
174
they came with melted cheese and chili.
175
So what do we mean by they come with melted cheese and chili?
176
Okay, so this verb, to come with,
177
means that they have as a part of the dish.
178
So this is not a side.
179
Right.
180
Not like before when we were talking about a side of.
181
This means that in the case of nachos,
182
the nachos have on them,
183
on top, cheese and chili.
184
That's right.
185
So sometimes if you go to McDonald's and you buy a meal,
186
you get a burger, and the burger comes with French fries and a Coke included in the meal.
187
Or you can say, unfortunately,
188
this meal does not come with a drink,
189
so you have to order the drink extra.
190
That's right.
191
Okay, so a lot of great stuff.
192
Let's take another look, and we'll be right back.
193
Hello, sir.
194
Welcome to Pistolera Restaurant.
195
May I take your order?
196
Yes, I would like the chicken cheese enchiladas with a side of guacamole.
197
Sorry, sir, but we ran out of chicken.
198
May I suggest our delicious beef burritos or cheese quesadillas?
199
Both include a side of guacamole and jalapenos.
200
Sure, I'll have the burrito.
201
Do you have nachos?
202
Of course, sir.
203
Our nachos come with melted cheese and chili.
204
Sounds good.
205
Would you like anything to drink?
206
Sure, I'll have a Corona.
207
Alright, so Mexican food, very, very delicious.
208
And as we see, it has a lot of cheese in most dishes.
209
It does.
210
A lot of cheese and also a lot of tortillas.
211
So tortillas are these usually round, flat, pancake-like things.
212
They're not sweet.
213
They're savory.
214
And you usually put things in them like tacos or fajitas or burritos.
215
That's right.
216
And there's two kinds, right?
217
That's right.
218
So you have tortillas that are made from flour that are usually white.
219
And then you have corn tortillas that are made from corn.
220
And they're usually a little bit more yellow.
221
That's right.
222
So it's actually, Mexican food is very,
223
very good, but usually it's a little bit spicy.
224
So if you don't really like spicy food,
225
you should tell the waiter or waitress to not make it spicy.
226
That's right.
227
If you don't eat spicy food,
228
you certainly don't want to eat any jalapeno peppers.
229
That's right.
230
I'm actually not really a fan of spicy food.
231
So, for example, I really cannot eat jalapeno peppers.
232
See, I'm the opposite.
233
I love spicy food, so I often order green enchiladas,
234
which have a spicy jalapeno green sauce.
235
Yeah, they're very, very spicy.
236
So this is part of our mini-series that we have all about world foods.
237
We've already taken a look at Italian food.
238
We have Mexican food.
239
Next, we'll be looking at Indian food,
240
Korean food, a lot of great international foods coming up.
241
Yummy.
242
So let us know, do you like Mexican food?
243
Have you ever had Mexican food?
244
And if we left off some kind of Mexican food like tacos, let us know.
245
That's right.

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。
