Hello everyone, and welcome back to Mr English Channel,
2
where learning English is easy and fun.
3
I'm Emily.
4
Hello everyone.
5
This is Paul, joining Emily today.
6
Hey Emily, how you doing?
7
Hi Paul.
8
I'm great, thank you.
9
A little bit excited, actually.
10
And you?
11
How are you feeling today?
12
Oh, I'm feeling good, Emily.
13
Really good.
14
The sun is shining, and we are here ready to talk about a super interesting topic.
15
What do you think our topic is today, Emily?
16
Hmm.
17
That's a good question, Paul.
18
Our topic today is – drum roll please – talking about your future.
19
Wow, that's a fantastic topic.
20
I love talking about the future.
21
It's always fun to think about what comes next, isn't it?
22
Yes, exactly.
23
It's all about hopes and dreams and plans.
24
And for our lovely listeners,
25
it's a great way to practice English.
26
So, before we start, a quick reminder to our amazing listeners.
27
Please like this video, share it with your friends.
28
And subscribe to Mr. English Channel.
29
It helps us a lot,
30
and we love having you here.
31
Yes, please do.
32
Your support means the world to us.
33
So, Emily, when you think about the future,
34
what's the first thing that comes to your mind?
35
Like, a small future plan?
36
Hmm.
37
A small future plan.
38
Well, tomorrow I plan to bake cookies.
39
Is that a good future plan?
40
That's a wonderful future plan, Emily.
41
I love cookies.
42
What kind of cookies?
43
Chocolate chip, of course.
44
The best kind.
45
What about you, Paul?
46
Any small future plans for tomorrow?
47
Let me see.
48
Tomorrow, I plan to water my plants.
49
They need some love.
50
And maybe, just maybe, I will go for a walk in the park.
51
Oh, that sounds lovely, Paul.
52
It's good to have small plans, isn't it?
53
They make the day better.
54
Absolutely.
55
They add a little bit of joy to the everyday.
56
So, we are talking about the future,
57
and we just talked about small,
58
simple plans, but what about bigger plans,
59
like for next year, or in five years?
60
That's where it gets really interesting.
61
When we talk about the future,
62
we often use some special words and phrases in English.
63
For example, we use will a lot.
64
Ah, yes, will.
65
Can you give us an example, Emily?
66
A simple one.
67
Of course.
68
For example, I will travel more next year.
69
Or, I will learn a new skill.
70
Simple, right?
71
Yes, very simple and clear.
72
So, for me, I will try to read more books next year.
73
I love reading, but sometimes I don't have enough time.
74
That's a great goal, Paul.
75
Reading is wonderful.
76
So, we use will for things we decide now or for predictions about the future.
77
What else do we use?
78
Well, we also use going to for future plans,
79
especially when we have already decided something.
80
For example, I am going to visit my family next month.
81
I bought the tickets already.
82
Oh, that's a perfect example, Paul.
83
So, going to is for plans we already made.
84
Like, I am going to start a new English course next month.
85
It's decided.
86
Yes, exactly.
87
So, will for general future actions or predictions,
88
and going to for plans you have decided.
89
It's simple, but sometimes people get confused.
90
Yes, but with practice it becomes easy.
91
So Paul, let's talk about some common future plans people have.
92
What are some things you often hear people say they will do or are going to do in the future?
93
Hmm.
94
Let me think.
95
Many people talk about traveling.
96
Like I will visit Italy someday.
97
Or I am going to go to the beach next summer.
98
Yes, travel is a big one.
99
Everyone loves to explore new places.
100
I hope I will visit Japan in the future.
101
That's a big dream of mine.
102
What about other common plans?
103
Another common one is about work or career.
104
People often say, I will get a new job,
105
or I am going to start my own business.
106
That's true.
107
Career goals are very important.
108
I hope I will keep learning new things for my job.
109
Learning is endless.
110
Definitely.
111
And sometimes people talk about learning new skills,
112
like, I will learn to play the guitar or I am going to learn a new language.
113
That's fantastic.
114
Learning a new skill is so rewarding.
115
I remember I said, I will learn to knit one day.
116
I haven't done it yet,
117
but it's still in my future plans.
118
Well, you still have time, Emily.
119
What about family plans?
120
People often talk about those, too.
121
Oh, yes.
122
Like, I will spend more time with my family.
123
Or we are going to have a big family dinner next Sunday.
124
These are lovely plans.
125
They are.
126
And sometimes people talk about moving to a new place.
127
I will move to a bigger house next year.
128
Or, I am going to live in the countryside.
129
Yes, changing your home is a big future plan for many.
130
It's exciting.
131
So we have travel, career,
132
new skills, family, and moving.
133
What else comes to mind?
134
People also talk about health and well-being.
135
Like, I will exercise more.
136
Or, I am going to eat healthier food.
137
These are very good future plans for personal health.
138
Those are very important.
139
Taking care of yourself is vital.
140
I plan to take more walks in the park, as you mentioned, Paul.
141
So, I am going to walk more often.
142
Good plan, Emily.
143
And speaking of plans, sometimes we use might or may to talk about the future when we are not 100% sure.
144
For example, I might go to the party tonight,
145
meaning it's possible but not certain.
146
Ah, yes, might and may.
147
They show possibility.
148
So, I might buy a new car next year means it's a possibility,
149
but not a definite plan yet.
150
Exactly.
151
Or, it may rain tomorrow.
152
We are not sure, but it's possible.
153
So, will for sure things,
154
going to for decided plans,
155
and might may for possibilities.
156
Good summary, Paul.
157
This is really helpful for our listeners.
158
Let's try some examples.
159
Paul, tell me something you will do next year,
160
something you are sure about.
161
Okay.
162
I will definitely learn some new songs on my guitar.
163
I love playing, and I want to improve.
164
That's a sure thing for me.
165
That's wonderful, Paul.
166
And what is something you are going to do soon?
167
Something you have already decided?
168
I am going to buy a new book for my reading club next week.
169
I already picked it out.
170
Perfect.
171
And what is something you might do in the distant future?
172
Something that's a possibility.
173
Hmm.
174
In the distant future, I might learn to speak Italian.
175
I love Italian food and culture,
176
so it's a nice dream,
177
but I'm not sure yet.
178
That's great, Paul.
179
Italian is a beautiful language.
180
So you will learn new songs,
181
you're going to buy a book,
182
and you might learn Italian.
183
Good job.
184
Thank you, Emily.
185
Now it's your turn.
186
Tell me something you will do next week.
187
Next week, I will call my grandmother.
188
We talk every week, so it's a sure thing.
189
That's lovely.
190
And what are you going to do this weekend?
191
This weekend, I am going to visit a new coffee shop.
192
My friend told me about it,
193
and I want to try their coffee.
194
Oh, nice.
195
And something you might do next year?
196
Next year, I might plant a small garden.
197
I love flowers, but I am not sure if I will have enough time.
198
So it's a possibility.
199
Excellent examples, Emily.
200
Our listeners can practice these phrases too,
201
thinking about their own future plans.
202
Yes, exactly.
203
Thinking about your own life makes it easier to remember.
204
That's a good point, Emily.
205
So we've talked about our personal plans.
206
But what about things that will happen in the world?
207
We use will for predictions about the future,
208
often based on what we think.
209
Right.
210
For example, the weather forecast says it will be sunny tomorrow.
211
Or, I think technology will change a lot in the next ten years.
212
Yes, we often use I think or I believe with will for predictions.
213
I think people will travel to space more often in the future.
214
That's a big prediction.
215
That's a very big prediction, Emily.
216
I hope so.
217
So it's not just about our personal lives,
218
but also about the world around us.
219
Exactly.
220
And sometimes when we talk about the future,
221
we also talk about goals and aspirations.
222
A goal is something you want to achieve.
223
An aspiration is a strong hope or ambition.
224
That's a good point.
225
My goal is to finish reading this very long book by the end of the month.
226
My aspiration is to write my own book one day.
227
Wow, Paul!
228
That's a wonderful aspiration.
229
I hope you will do it.
230
My goal is to learn ten new English words every week.
231
My aspiration is to help many,
232
many people learn English through our podcast.
233
And you are doing a great job, Emily.
234
You are already helping so many people.
235
So when we talk about goals,
236
we often use phrases like,
237
My goal is to learn English.
238
Or, I want to achieve success.
239
Yes, or I hope to travel.
240
For aspirations, we might say,
241
My dream is to fly.
242
Or, I aspire to be a good person.
243
These are all ways to talk about our future.
244
It's so important to have dreams and goals.
245
They give us direction, don't they?
246
Absolutely.
247
They give us something to work towards.
248
And even if a plan changes, it's okay.
249
Sometimes our future plans change,
250
and that's a part of life.
251
Yes, life is full of surprises.
252
So if your plan to bake cookies tomorrow suddenly changes because you have to work, that's okay.
253
You can bake them another day.
254
Exactly!
255
Flexibility is key.
256
So, listeners, don't worry if your future plans change.
257
It's normal.
258
The important thing is to keep learning and keep trying.
259
That's a great message, Emily.
260
So, we've covered will, going to,
261
might, may, and we We talked about goals and aspirations.
262
What about common questions people ask about the future?
263
Oh, yes.
264
Very important for conversations.
265
A common question is, what are your plans for the weekend?
266
Yes, or what are you doing after work today?
267
These are simple, everyday future questions.
268
And if it's a bigger future plan,
269
someone might ask, what will you do after you finish school?
270
Or where do you see yourself in five years?
271
Ah, where do you see yourself in five years?
272
That's a classic interview question too.
273
It makes you think.
274
It does.
275
And a good way to answer is,
276
in five years, I will be working in a new job.
277
Or I hope to be living in a different city.
278
Yes, practice makes perfect.
279
So listeners, try to answer that question for yourselves.
280
Where do you see yourself in five years?
281
Great idea, Paul!
282
about it and try to use will or going to in your answer.
283
So Emily, what is one thing you are most excited about for your future, big or small?
284
Hmm, that's a lovely question, Paul.
285
I am most excited about continuing to learn and grow.
286
I think I will always be a student of life,
287
and that excites me.
288
And you, Paul?
289
That's a beautiful answer, Emily.
290
For me, I am most excited about meeting new people and having new experiences.
291
I believe I will meet many interesting people in the future,
292
and that makes me very happy.
293
That's wonderful, Paul.
294
Life is an adventure, isn't it?
295
It truly is.
296
And learning English is part of that adventure for our listeners.
297
By talking about the future,
298
they are building their English skills step by step.
299
Yes, exactly.
300
Every word, every phrase helps them on their journey.
301
So, we hope this episode helped you understand how to talk about the future in English.
302
It's a very useful skill.
303
It certainly is.
304
And remember, practice makes perfect.
305
Try to talk about your own future plans in English every day,
306
even just for a few minutes.
307
Yes, even if it's just,
308
I will make coffee now.
309
Every little bit helps.
310
That's a great example, Emily.
311

练习建议
为了提高您的英语口语和影子跟读能力，建议您在聆听视频时进行影子讲话（shadowspeak）。尝试跟着主持人的语速和语调进行模仿。由于视频中的对话轻松自然，您可以专注于理解词汇与语句结构。具体建议如下：
- 慢速跟读： 一开始尝试以较慢的速度跟读，确保每个单词发音正确。
- 句子分解： 将每个句子分解成小段落，逐句练习，直到您能够流利地完整表达。
- 重复练习： 多次收听并跟读，直到您对语调和发音完全熟悉，帮助您掌握英语影子跟读技巧。
- 应用词汇： 在您的日常对话中，尽量多使用学到的关键词汇，这有助于加深记忆。
通过这样的影子演说练习，您将能够更加流利而自信地用英语讨论未来的计划，增强口语表达能力。让我们一起努力，期待能在不久的将来看到您在英语交谈中的进步!
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。
