To improve your English today all you have to do is listen and repeat.
2
Hello my English learning friends, welcome back to my channel.
3
If you are new here I'm Kirsty, I'm British and I teach English in France.
4
Today we are going to practice your speaking skills using three everyday situations.
5
I'm going to give you useful sentences that you might actually hear or use in real life.
6
Don't worry if you don't understand every single word.
7
The important thing today is to listen carefully and copy the rhythm and the pronunciation.
8
Today's situations are making plans with a friend,
9
ordering Sunday lunch at a pub and complaining about a problem with your hotel room.
10
Are you ready?
11
Let's begin.
12
Hey I haven't seen you in ages.
13
Hey I haven't seen you in ages.
14
This is a really natural way to greet someone you haven't seen for a long time.
15
Notice that I haven't is the contracted form of I have not.
16
So we don't say every word separately.
17
Let's try again.
18
This time you repeat after me.
19
Hey, I haven't seen you in ages.
20
Hey, I haven't seen you in ages.
21
What have you been up to?
22
What have you been up to?
23
This is a very common way to ask someone what they've been doing recently.
24
In natural speech, what have you can become quite fast
25
and connected it becomes what have what have you what have
26
now it's your turn what have you been up
27
to what have you been up to we should
28
catch up we should catch up catch up is a really
29
useful expression it means to spend some time talking to someone
30
and finding out what has been happening in their life let's
31
say it again we should catch up we should catch up
32
are you free sometime next week are Are you free sometime next week?
33
Notice how are you becomes a you in natural speech.
34
The a is the schwa sound, a, a, which is a very common weak sound in English.
35
We use it when a word is unstressed.
36
So instead of saying are you, we make are much weaker, a you.
37
Let's try again.
38
Are you free some time next week?
39
Are you free sometime next week?
40
Do you fancy getting a coffee?
41
Do you fancy getting a coffee?
42
Do you fancy is common in British English and means would you like.
43
So you could say do you fancy getting a coffee or do you fancy going for a walk?
44
Also do you is often squashed together to become due. Do you?
45
Do you fancy?
46
Let's practice.
47
Do you fancy getting a coffee?
48
Do you fancy getting a coffee?
49
Yeah, sounds good.
50
When shall we meet?
51
Yeah, sounds good.
52
When shall we meet?
53
Here we have a good example of how in everyday conversation we often leave out words when they are not necessary.
54
Instead of saying that sounds good we say sounds good.
55
One more time.
56
Yeah sounds good.
57
When shall we meet?
58
Yeah, sounds good.
59
When shall we meet?
60
Now let's imagine it's Sunday and you would like to eat a traditional Sunday roast.
61
Are you ready to order?
62
Are you ready to order?
63
This is a question you will hear when the waiter is ready to take your order.
64
Yes, I'd like the roast beef, please.
65
Yes, I'd like the roast beef, please.
66
Notice I'd like and not I would like.
67
We almost always use the contracted form in normal conversation.
68
Listen to how naturally it flows.
69
Yes, I'd like the roast beef, please.
70
Your turn to repeat.
71
Yes, I'd like the roast beef, please.
72
Yes, I'd like the roast beef please.
73
Would you like potatoes with that?
74
Would you like potatoes with that?
75
Would you like becomes very connected in natural speech and sounds more like would you like,
76
would you like and not would you like, would you like?
77
Also, notice how the final T in that is very weak in this sentence.
78
Listen and repeat after me.
79
Would you like potatoes with that?
80
Would you like potatoes with that?
81
Yes, please.
82
And could I have some extra gravy?
83
Yes, please.
84
And could I have some extra gravy?
85
Could I have is a very useful, polite expression for asking for something.
86
You can use it in restaurants, cafes, hotels and many other situations.
87
Often, students ask me if they should say, may I have.
88
Now, may I have is correct and very polite,
89
but it sounds more formal and is less common in everyday modern English.
90
Your turn to repeat after me.
91
Yes please and could I have some extra gravy?
92
Yes please and could I have some extra gravy?
93
I'll have the carrots and the green beans.
94
I'll have the carrots and the green beans.
95
Notice I will becomes I'll.
96
Your turn.
97
I'll have the carrots and the green beans.
98
I'll have the carrots and the green beans.
99
Could we have some more gravy please?
100
Could we have some more gravy please?
101
This is another useful phrase to remember.
102
You can change the food.
103
Here we ask for gravy but you could say, could we have some more water please?
104
Could we have some more bread please?
105
Let's shadow it one more time.
106
Could we have some more gravy please?
107
Could we have some more gravy please?
108
Finally, imagine you have arrived at your hotel and unfortunately there is a problem in your room.
109
Excuse me, there's a problem with my room.
110
Excuse me, there's a problem with my room.
111
This is a polite but direct way to start a complaint.
112
Can you see how there is becomes theirs in natural speech?
113
Now repeat after me.
114
Excuse me, there's a problem with my room.
115
The air conditioning isn't working.
116
Here we have the contraction isn't for is not.
117
and in natural speech, isn't working flows together with a very weak T
118
so we don't really hear isn't working we hear
119
isn't working your turn the air conditioning isn't working the air conditioning isn't working
120
There doesn't seem to be any hot water.
121
There doesn't seem to be any hot water.
122
This is a very useful phrase when you want to complain politely.
123
There doesn't seem to be is softer than simply saying there is no. For example,
124
you could say, There doesn't seem to be a kettle.
125
Or, there doesn't seem to be any toilet paper.
126
Let's shadow it again.
127
There doesn't seem to be any hot water.
128
There doesn't seem to be any hot water.
129
I'd really appreciate it if you could fix it as soon as possible.
130
I'd really appreciate it if you could fix it as soon as possible.
131
This is a useful phrase when you want to be polite
132
but you also want to make it clear that the problem is important.
133
I'd really appreciate it if you could.
134
It's a very polite way to make a request.
135
Let's shadow one more time.
136
I'd really appreciate it if you could fix it as soon as possible possible.
137
Thank you, I appreciate your help.
138
Thank you, I appreciate your help.
139
This is a great way to finish a complaint politely.
140
Even if you are unhappy about a problem, you can still be polite and friendly.
141
Let's try this one more time.
142
Thank you, I appreciate your help.
143
Thank you, I appreciate your help.
144
Good job everyone, some of those sentences were not easy.
145
Now I want you to go back and practice all of the sentences again.
146
And remember, don't just practice silently in your head, speak out loud.

关于本课

您正在使用跟读技巧通过视频"Improve Your English Speaking Skills | Shadowing English Practice (Everyday Situations)"练习英语口语和发音。

每天练习15到30分钟,将显著提高您的英语流利度和发音准确度。

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。
