Hello, English learners, and welcome to EnglishPod.
2
My name is Marco.
3
I'm Amira.
4
And Amira and I are here today with a great, great lesson for you.
5
Yes, we are.
6
Today, we're going to be talking about a restaurant.
7
Amira, why don't you give us a little bit more details?
8
Well, we're talking about a situation in a restaurant, and two people are involved, the waiter and the customer.
9
And I don't want to say anymore.
10
Okay, don't say anymore.
11
Let's just listen to this dialogue and we'll be back later to explain it.
12
Good evening.
13
My name is Fabio.
14
I'll be your waiter for tonight.
15
May I take your order?
16
No, I'm still working on it.
17
This menu's not even in English.
18
What's good here? For you, sir?
19
I would recommend spaghetti and meatballs.
20
Does it come with Coke and fries?
21
It comes with either soup or salad and a complimentary glass of wine, sir.
22
I'll go with the spaghetti and meatballs, salad and the wine.
23
Excellent choice.
24
Your order will be ready soon.
25
How soon is soon?
26
20 minutes.
27
You know what?
28
I'll just go grab a burger across the street.
29
But go a little bit, come in this place and ask me all these questions.
30
But go, go, go, go!
31
Uh oh, what a waiter.
32
What a waiter, he is really angry at this customer and I can't blame him.
33
I would be angry too.
34
Yeah, so I think Marco, you have chosen some interesting expressions for us here.
35
What is the first one?
36
Well, the first one is, I'm still working on it.
37
I'm still working on it.
38
I'm still working on it.
39
I'm still working on it.
40
Why don't we listen to some other examples on how you can use this word, and then we'll come back and explain it.
41
Did you finish reading the magazine?
42
I'm still working on it.
43
Did you fix my car?
44
I'm still working on it.
45
Ah, so you could say I'm still working on it means...
46
I still need more time.
47
Fantastic.
48
Great.
49
Okay, it's clear.
50
I have another one for you guys.
51
It's a phrase commonly used and you'll hear it all the time.
52
Coke and fries.
53
Coke and fries.
54
Coke and fries.
55
Coke and fries.
56
It's a short way of saying Coca-Cola and French fries.
57
So that's basically America's fast food.
58
Yeah, burger, Coke and fries.
59
Okay.
60
What's next on the menu?
61
On the menu we have a complimentary glass of wine.
62
Complimentary glass of wine.
63
Complimentary glass of wine.
64
Complimentary means?
65
That it's free.
66

67

70
Well, I have another one for us here, another interesting phrase, I'll go with.
71
I'll go with.
72
I'll go with.
73
I'll go with.
74
So basically it's another way of saying, I'm choosing.
75
Yeah, I'll choose or I'll take.
76
I'll take.
77
Okay, very good.
78
All right, the next word that I want to take a look at is grab.
79
Grab.
80
Grab.
81
Grab.
82
Okay, now let's listen to some other examples of how we could use grab in different situations
83
and then we'll come back and explain it.
84
on your way home can you grab some milk
85
wait for me please i need to grab my coat let's grab a cup of coffee All right.
86
Well, I would understand that go grab means go get quickly.
87
To go get quickly.
88
Yeah.
89
Yeah.
90
All right, everyone.
91
So now it's time to listen one more time to the dialogue
92
and listen carefully and try to understand why the waiter doesn't like the customer.
93
Let's listen.
94
Good evening.
95
My name is Fabio.
96
I'll be your waiter for tonight.
97

107
How soon is soon?
108
20 minutes?
109
You know what?
110
I'll just go grab a burger across the street.
111
Marco, why did this waiter get angry at the customer?
112
Well, he basically wasted the waiter's time.
113
I mean, this guy comes into the restaurant, he is not very polite, and he's asking all these questions, and in the end he just gets up and says,
114
I'll just go grab a burger across the street.
115
Yeah, and I also think that this guy was a lot more casual than the place he was in, right?
116
Yeah, yeah.
117
I think this was a nice, fancy restaurant.
118
So I think he was in the wrong place.
119
Yeah.
120
So how many times, Marco, tell me, do you really have fast food a week?
121
Fast food, let's see, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday.
122
No, I'm just kidding.
123
Oh, my God.
124
No, no. I think I get fast food maybe once a week, once or twice a week.
125
All right.
126
Talking about fast food made me hungry, so I think I'm going to go grab something to eat myself.
127
Yeah, me too.
128
All right.
129
I hope you guys enjoyed the lesson today.

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。
