Hey, uh, you are Jackson, the newcomer, right?
3
Hello, you are...

I'm James, I'm from your department too.
5
Hello James, nice to meet you.
6
How is everything so far?
7
Good?
8
Yes, I just read through some documentaries this morning.
9
Everything is good so far.
10
Jackson, you graduated from university, right?
11
Yes, I just graduated last August.
12
So, is this your first time working? working?
13
No, not really.
14
I actually have worked before.
15
This is my second job.
16
Oh, really?
17
What was your first job?
18
It was not an office job like this one.
19
I worked part-time at McDonald's when I was in my second year of university.
20
That's great!
21
What did you do there exactly?
22
My job was mainly working as a cashier.
23
I took orders for customers, collected payments, and took care of the cash registers.
24
At the end of my shift, I always had to balance the cash registers, double-checking all the payments.
25
That sounds a lot more difficult than I expected.
26
I've always thought that being a cashier, all you've got to do is taking orders and taking the money.
27
Haha, no. It's not as simple as that, but...
28
I've learned a lot from the job, especially the customer service skills.
29
I think I got better talking to people thanks to the job.
30
For how long did you work there?
31
I only worked there for around a year.
32
I quit when my study at school started being more hectic.
33
I see.
34
You are such a hardworking person.
35
No, no, I'm not that hardworking.
36
Many students have part-time jobs now.
37
What about you?
38
Did you start working here right after graduating like me?
39
Oh, me?
40
This is my second company after graduating.
41
What was your first company then?
42
I worked for a pharmaceutical company.
43
Wow, you know how to make medicines and stuff?
44
No, it's not like that.
45
I worked in the department of sales as well.
46
I see.
47
Why did you leave the company?
48
I thought that the salary was not enough to compensate for the amount of work.
49
I had to work overtime a lot.
50
Besides, selling medicines was not too enjoyable, so I decided to switch things up.
51
For how long did you work there?
52
I think around two years.
53
Yeah, and now with this company, it's the fifth year already.
54
I really like working here.
55
Glad to hear that.
56
I felt like I have made the right decision.
57
You definitely did.
58
Well, it's time to go back.
59
See you.
60
Bye.
61
Hey Jane, what are you doing?
62
Nothing much.
63
There's no customers yet, so I'm pretty bored now.
64
You are done with the preparation in the kitchen?
65
Yeah, all things are set up.
66
I'm pretty bored now too.
67
Want to talk?
68
Yeah, sure.
69
Great.
70
Oh, I'm pretty curious.
71
Have you ever had a part-time job before?
72
Because I see that even you are new here, you didn't need much training as others.
73
Oh, yeah.
74
I've worked as a cashier for a restaurant before, so I know all the basics.
75
Oh, really?
76
Was your old job much different from this one?
77
Yeah, I think it was pretty different.
78
When I worked as a cashier at a restaurant, I only needed to take care of the cash register.
79
Taking orders was the job of the waiters.
80
But at this shop, I have to do both, so it was a bit difficult for me at first.
81
But you have got used to it by now, right? Of course.
82
That's great.
83
Why did you leave your old place, though?
84
Actually, there was nothing to complain about in my old workplace.
85
The payment was good, and my old co-workers were super nice as well.
86
But suddenly I had to move and the new apartment was a bit too far, so I quit.
87
Oh, then you found this job?
88
Yeah, I just want to work at places near my house.
89
Luckily I found this burger shop.
90
Working here is pretty nice, though it's more tiring to be honest.
91
I see, but don't worry, I will help you whenever I can.
92
Really?
93
You are so kind, Justin.
94
Thank you.
95
Oh, a guest.
96
Right.
97
I have to get back to work now.
98
Talk to you later.
99
Later, Jane.
100
Hello, I'm coming for an interview for the part-time barista position here.
101
Uh, you must be Tim, right? Have a seat, please.
102
And can I have your resume?
103
Thank you.
104
Here it is.
105
I'm Jason, the owner of this coffee shop, and I will be the one to interview you today.
106
How are you today, Tim?
107
I'm great.
108

110
Can you introduce yourself a little bit?
111
My name is Tim McLean, and I am currently a student at the New Tech University.
112

113
Now I have some questions for you.
114
First of all, have you had a part-time job before?
115
Yes, I had a part-time job before.
116
I used to be a private tutor for about a year.
117
Okay, I see.
118
What were your tasks back then?
119
I taught a 10-year-old kid math, and I helped him with his assignments.
120
I see.
121
Then why did you quit?
122
Though the salary was good, I decided to stop as the place was a bit far.
123
And my shift always ended pretty late at night.
124
It was a bit dangerous.
125
I understand.
126
Why do you want to work with us now?
127
First of all, this coffee shop is pretty near my place.
128
I only need to walk 10 minutes to get here, so I have no problems working at any time of the day.
129
Second of all, I really like this coffee shop because of its atmosphere.
130
Thank you for loving our small coffee shop.
131
Are you familiar with making coffee?
132
I always make myself a cup of coffee in the morning, but I don't know much about the coffee machines.
133
I understand.
134
Firstly, can you tell me a bit about your schedule? When can you work?
135
I'm free every evening, so I can work the evening shift.
136
In the morning, because I have class, so I can only work during weekends.
137
I see.
138
Okay, so that's it for me.
139
Do you have any questions?
140
Yes, I do.
141
When can I know if I am hired?
142
I will call you tomorrow.
143
So please watch out for any calls coming.
144
I got it.
145
Then I don't have any questions left.
146
Thank you.
147
Me too.
148
Thank you for coming.
149
Thank you.

推荐视频

为什么用这个视频练习口语?

看视频学英语是提升口语的高效方式,尤其是围绕"第一份工作"这类贴近生活的话题。视频中的对话模拟了职场新人交流场景,涵盖求职经历、工作内容、离职原因等实用表达,既能积累日常口语素材,又能锻炼真实语境下的反应能力。对于雅思口语练习或日常交际,这样的场景化训练能让你更自然地组织语言,摆脱"背课文"式的生硬表达。通过shadow speak(影子跟读法)模仿对话节奏和语气,还能快速提升语感,让口语更流畅。

语境中的语法与表达

对话中藏着多个实用表达,值得重点学习:

  • "This is my second job." 用"序数词+job"介绍工作经历,简洁明了。类似结构还可扩展为"This is my third company",适用于描述职业背景。
  • "I quit when my study started being more hectic." "when"引导时间状语从句,表达"当...时"的逻辑关系。"hectic"(忙碌的)替换"busy"更显地道,可用于描述学习或工作状态。
  • "The salary was not enough to compensate for the amount of work." "compensate for"表示"补偿",精准表达对工作与薪资不匹配的不满,是职场对话中的高频短语。

常见发音陷阱

提升英语发音需注意对话中的易错点:

  • "cashier" 发音为/ˈkæʃɪr/,易误读为/ˈkæʃiːər/,注意尾音的短元音。
  • "pharmaceutical" 重音在倒数第三个音节/ˌfɑːrməˈsuːtɪkl/,初学者常因音节多而读错,可通过拆分音节"phar-ma-ceu-ti-cal"练习。
  • 对话中连读现象明显,如"took orders"连读为/tʊk ˈɔːrdərz/,"part-time"连读为/ˈpɑːrt taɪm/,模仿时需注意自然衔接,避免生硬停顿。

利用shadowing site反复跟读,对比自身发音与视频差异,能有效攻克这些陷阱,让口语更地道。

视频中的语法

说话人最常用的结构,并附上视频中的原话:

结构视频中的用法
现在完成时 have/has + 过去分词 — 过去发生但与现在仍有关联的事have worked · I've always thought · I've learned
义务:must / have to / need to 表示某事是必要的had to balance · had to work · needed to take
现在进行时 am/is/are + -ing — 此刻或近期正在发生的事is taking · are you doing · I'm coming
“will” 表将来 will + 动词 — 决定、承诺或预测will help · will be · will call

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。
