Where it gets hard
Worthers because when I do a play, you know when it's a matinea and it's all the old the old lot in the old girl sitting in the front row falling the kit, but you get a hit of Worthers…
So, I'd leave the tea bag in as long as possible and then rinse the life out of it. Some people use a tea bag again, didn't they? And I get that. Woo!

- 030:28You might be surprised by some of the things that come up in our lower level clips. And I have something I think you will really like.8.3s
- 040:37I'd like to give you a free ebook. It's my B1 to C1…4.8s
- 050:41Ebook and it contains everything that you need to know in order to pass the B1, B2, and C1 levels of English.10.3s
- 060:52There is so much in there. I'm giving it to you for free in preparation for our Black Friday sale. This is my biggest event of the year.10.1s
- 071:02My students literally wait all year for this because they know two things. One, I always go a bit mad with the offer.7.8s
- 081:10And two, my programs genuinely transform your English. So, if you want to download this B1…6.8s
- 091:16To C1 ebook for free and sign up for the waiting list for my huge Black Friday sale so that you'll be the first to know…8.6s
- 101:25Click on the link in the description box or scan the QR code there. Okay, let's start with the test. I'm going to play a series of audio clips.9.0s
- 111:34The first time I play each clip, there will be no text on screen, just a question for you to answer.7.2s
- 121:42Then I will play it once more with the transcript but with some key words missing.6.3s
- 131:48You need to fill in the gaps and then we'll analyze some of the interesting language features. Let's begin with an A1 level clip.9.8s
- 141:58Now if you've ever visited the UK, it's possible that you arrived at London Heathro.6.0s
- 152:04Our first clip is from a documentary called Heathro, Britain's busiest airport.6.9s
- 162:11So remember, first I'll play the audio with no text on screen.4.0s
- 172:15Just listen and answer the question and make sure you turn off subtitles if you want to do this properly.7.3s
- 182:23The question is, how many people travel through Heathrow airport each year?6.5s
- 192:29London Heathrow, Europe's biggest and busiest airport, transporting more than 73 million passengers every year. Just your password, please. That's fine. How many passengers?10.2s
- 202:40Okay, the answer is 73 million passengers.5.3s
- 212:46Passenger is a slightly higher level word around A2 level and refers to a person who's traveling, not working…9.3s
- 222:55On a plane, bus, train, and so on. Okay, let's listen again. Try and fill in the blanks with one word in each space.9.0s
- 233:04London Heathrow, Europe's biggest and busiest airport, transporting more than 73 million passengers every year. Just your passport, please. That's fine. How many passengers?10.1s
- 243:15Six. So we have London Heathro, Europe's biggest and busiest airport. These are our superlative forms of big and busy.10.0s
- 253:25And notice the spelling changes there. We need to double the G for the comparative and superlative forms.7.3s
- 263:32And Y becomes I in busiest. Be careful because the letter U is pronounced as a short I. Busy. Busiest.10.2s
- 273:43Next we have transporting more than 73 million passengers. A common error I hear at this level is more that.9.8s
- 283:53It should be more than. For example, I have more than 10 friends. The airport worker asks for just your passport please.10.1s
- 294:03And another worker asks how many passengers. Some A1 learners confuse how with who.7.3s
- 304:11How many with the a diff def thong is used to talk about quantity.5.0s
- 314:16Who with the long ooh vowel sound is used to talk about a person. Okay, did you get all of that?8.2s
- 324:25Let's step things up a level. We'll head into London for the following A2 level clip from Britain's favorite walks.9.6s
- 334:35Listen and answer the question, where is the speaker walking? I grew up in West London, so I spent my whole life kind of walking along by the river.8.9s
- 344:44And it's one of the few places in London you get a bit of kind of perspective. It's a treasure. The answer is along or by the river. The speaker says both.9.0s
- 354:53Along is an A2 preposition meaning in a line following the side of something.6.5s
- 365:00By is a more basic word with a similar meaning near or at the side of something.6.2s
- 375:06Along usually suggests movement, but we can use by to show position. For example, I walked along the river with Diego.9.9s
- 385:17I want a house by the river. Oh, and of course, the river in question is the river temps.7.2s
- 395:24Walking along the rivers is one of my favorite things to do when I visit London. And a fun fact for you, it actually begins in the Cotswwells, not far from where I live.10.2s
- 405:34Okay, let's listen to the clip again. Try and fill in the gaps. One word in each space.6.2s
- 415:40I grew up in West London, so I spent my whole life kind of walking along by the river. And it's one of the few places in London you get a bit of kind of perspective.7.0s
- 425:47It's a treasure. We have grew up, the past simple of grow up. This phrasal verb means to become an adult.9.5s
- 435:57We normally give more energy to the second word in phrasal verbs. I grew up in.6.6s
- 446:04Some speakers add a soft w sound to glide between the vowel sounds. Grew up in. Where did you grow up?9.4s
- 456:13Next, the speaker said he spent his whole life walking along the river.7.0s
- 466:20He uses the present perfect here to show this is something he started doing as a child and still continues to do.8.3s
- 476:29And notice the collocation spend time, not pass time. This is a mistake I hear a lot.8.6s
- 486:37We generally use spend time when we talk about using our time for a particular purpose.6.2s
- 496:44For example, I enjoy spending time with my mom, not I enjoy passing time with my mom.8.4s
- 506:52And finally, we have one of the few places. The structure one of the is followed by a plural noun.9.4s
- 517:02I often hear students at this level say for example one of the thing I love. But it's not correct. We should say one of the things I love.10.2s
- 527:12It's one of many. Okay. Did you still find that pretty easy? If so, let's move on to B1.6.6s
- 537:18The next clip is from an actor and comedian, Steven Mangan, and he's answering the question, "What's in my suitcase…8.2s
- 547:27And lists some items he never travels without?" What's in my suitcase? Well, I always bring a pillow because I'm really fussy like that, and I can't stand other people's pillows.10.1s
- 557:37Also, other people have been sleeping on those pillows. Uh, I always bring something to play music on because I like to have music.5.4s
- 567:42And even though some hotel rooms have something, you can never be too careful. So far, he's mentioned a pillow and something to play music on. Let's jump in at number three.9.5s
- 577:52Listen and answer the question, what other three objects does he always bring when he travels?6.8s
- 587:59Number three, I always bring a pair of sunglasses because I've got a quite weird face and lots of glasses don't look that good on me.7.4s
- 598:07Four, I always bring about 25 phone chargers…5.1s
- 608:12Because I just paranoid that I won't be able to charge my phone because what am I going to do without my phone? Will I exist if my phone runs out of battery? I won't.8.5s
- 618:21I won't exist. And five, I was bring a book. I like to read a book, especially on a beach.5.6s
- 628:26Well done if you caught sunglasses, phone chargers, about 25 to be precise, and a book.8.0s
- 638:34What five items would you never travel without? Let me know in the comments. Let's listen again for some more detail and fill in each gap with one word.9.8s
- 648:44Number three, I always bring a pair of sunglasses because I've got a quite weird face and lots of glasses don't look that good on me.7.4s
- 658:52Four, I always bring about 25 phone chargers…5.2s
- 668:58Because I just paranoid that I won't be able to charge my phone because what am I going to do without my phone? Will I exist if my phone runs out of battery? I won't.8.5s
- 679:06I won't exist. And five, I must bring a book. I like to read a book, especially on a beach. We'll go through the answers for this one a bit differently. Here they all are.10.0s
- 689:16We have weird, paranoid, to be able to, and run out of.7.0s
- 699:23Now, here's a synonym for each word or phrase. Can you match each word from the clip with a word that has the same meaning? We have can…10.1s
- 709:34Use all of something, worried, and strange.4.5s
- 719:43So, in the context of this clip, weird means strange…4.2s
- 729:48Paranoid is worried, be able to is can, and run out of means to use all of something.9.0s
- 739:57And remember, can doesn't have an infinitive form. So, we can't say I won't can charge my phone.8.5s
- 7410:06Use I won't be able to. Instead, run out of is a really useful B1 phrasal verb. I wonder if you've heard it before.8.2s
- 7510:14You can run out of time, money, milk, shampoo, ideas, the list goes on. Okay, well done if you knew most of those words.8.6s
- 7610:23So, that last clip had basic grammar but more advanced vocabulary.4.6s
- 7710:28Our next B1 plus clip is more challenging because of its grammar and also because the speaker's delivery is pretty fast.9.6s
- 7810:37We're in the beautiful historic city of Bath at the first dates restaurant.5.4s
- 7910:43Listen to the short clip and tell me what problem did they have on the date? What about your first date? Oh my god.7.1s
- 8010:50I I think all I remember is just staring at this menu for so long. I didn't know what you meant to do. I was just we just didn't know what to say to each other.7.4s
- 8110:58So, I think if the menus have been taken away, we probably would have found something. Oh, this sounds very uncomfortable. They didn't know what to say to each other.9.6s
- 8211:07Maybe they were shy or inexperienced. Anyway, it sounds like it was rather awkward. We'll listen again now and look at some of the challenging vocabulary and grammar.9.9s
- 8311:17What about your first date? Oh my god. I I think all I remember is just staring at this menu for so long. I didn't know what you meant to do.6.7s
- 8411:24I just we just didn't know what to say to each other. So, I think if the menus have been taken away, we probably would have found something. That was quite fast, wasn't it?8.1s
- 8511:32Did you get any or all of the missing words? First, we have staring. This is a B2 level word. So, well done if you caught this.10.4s
- 8611:42To stare means to look at someone or something for a long time, maybe because you're tired, angry, or confused. For the speaker in our clip.10.1s
- 8711:53She was probably staring at the menu as she was too embarrassed to look anywhere else. Next, we have meant the past of mean.9.9s
- 8812:02And notice the pronunciation here. It's a short e sound, even though we have two vowels. Mean, meant meant.9.8s
- 8912:13I didn't know what you were meant to do is the same as I didn't know what you were supposed to do.7.6s
- 9012:21I didn't know what was expected in that situation. Now, let's take a closer look at the grammar in this final sentence.7.9s
- 9112:29The speaker says, "So, I think if the menus had been taken away, we probably would have found something to say."8.5s
- 9212:38This is an example of the third conditional, and it's often taught at the end of B1 courses, shortly before moving on to B2.9.5s
- 9312:47And speaking of B1 and B2 courses, we will be offering an incredible discount over the Black Friday period.8.2s
- 9412:56So, make sure you sign up to the wait list and get your B1 to C1 ebook for free. The links in the description box or you can scan the QR code there.9.2s
- 9513:05So, how do we form the third conditional? Well, in this case, we have if plus past perfect plus would have plus past participle.9.4s
- 9613:15And that's quite a lot to put together.2.2s
- 9713:17And this phrase is even more complex as we have a past perfect passive had been taken away by the waiter.8.9s
- 9813:26Adding to the difficulty of the clip are the contracted forms the speaker uses.5.9s
- 9913:32Menused would have for example. You don't need to use these yourself when speaking especially at B1 B2 level.10.2s
- 10013:43But it's important to be able to recognize them when listening. We use the third conditional to imagine a different past.8.5s
- 10113:51No one took the menus away, so they didn't find anything to say to each other.4.7s
- 10213:56Okay, are the listenings getting a little bit more challenging for you now, or are they still a walk in the park, a piece of cake?8.0s
- 10314:04Next up is a B2 level clip from a documentary series called The Heart of Britain. Listen and answer the question.7.8s
- 10414:12Where is the speaker, presenter Matt Baker, going? Across the country, there's over 1 and a half billion train journeys a year.8.6s
- 10514:21And I'm heading to the station in England that's the busiest of them all, London's Liverpool Street, to meet the unsung heroes who keep this place on track.8.6s
- 10614:29If you're one of the hundreds of thousands of people who pass through here every day, you might not notice them, but they're always here going the extra mile to get us where we need to be.9.8s
- 10714:39People like William in charge of mobility assistance who is a lifeline to many. Platform three we're after here.7.5s
- 10814:47He's heading or going to Liverpool Street train station, London's busiest train station.7.0s
- 10914:54So to head is a B1 kind of more B2 level alternative for to go to or to go towards.8.0s
- 11015:02Where are you heading means the same as where are you going. Now, I find the B2 level particularly interesting…9.4s
- 11115:12As it's when you start to learn some more idiomatic language and maybe even start to notice word play, which I love.8.4s
- 11215:20Let's listen to the clip again, fill in the gaps, and see if you can spot two…5.8s
- 11315:26Idiomatic expressions connected to trains and train journeys. Across the country, there's over 1 and a half billion train journeys a year.9.1s
- 11415:35And I'm heading to the station in England that's the busiest of them all, London's Liverpool Street to meet the unsung heroes who keep this place on track.8.7s
- 11515:44If you're one of the hundreds of thousands of people who pass through here every day, you might not notice them, but they're always here going the extra mile to get us where we need to be.10.0s
- 11615:54People like William in charge of mobility assistance who is a lifeline to many. Platform three we're after here.7.4s
- 11716:02So Matt's on his way to meet who he calls the unsung heroes that work at Liverpool Street.7.4s
- 11816:09An unsung hero is a person who is not praised or noticed for their hard work but deserves to be.7.0s
- 11916:16The next two phrases are very clever as they have both a literal and a figurative or idiomatic meaning.8.2s
- 12016:25We have keep this place on track and going the extra mile. Trains run on tracks. This is the literal meaning.9.5s
- 12116:34But if someone keeps something on track, they make sure everything goes correctly. A mile is a measurement of distance.7.5s
- 12216:42But we can use the idiomatic expression to go the extra mile to mean to make an extra effort, more effort than is expected of you.9.5s
- 12316:51An example, William is the unsung hero who goes the extra mile to assist people with reduced mobility.7.4s
- 12416:59These are people who cannot move around easily, often because of age, illness, injury, or disability.7.7s
- 12517:07And I just have to mention the last phrase that Matt uses. I love it so much. He says, "Platform three we're after here."8.5s
- 12617:16So, the informal phrase to be after someone or something means to be looking for someone or something.7.4s
- 12717:23For example, you're staring into the fridge, Mom. What are you after? What are you looking for? Okay, we're really warming up now.7.8s
- 12817:31This next clip is around B2C C1 level, as it contains some really advanced vocabulary.7.5s
- 12917:40We're heading to a beautiful area of Britain, the Yorkshire Dales.4.7s
- 13017:45Listen and answer the question, why are the Yorkshire Dales considered so significant?6.5s
- 13117:52So far on our coast to coast adventure, we've covered the Lake District leg, but it's time to join up to 5 million visitors a year by heading deep into Dale country.9.7s
- 13218:01The Yorkshire Dales are actually 42% mand…3.4s
- 13318:05Some of the country's most important landscapes and wildlife along with red squirrels, peragan falcans, and many rare plants and mosses.9.0s
- 13418:14The dales are home to some distinctive sheep breeds such as swale dales with their black faces and curled horns.6.9s
- 13518:21The answer is because they house some of the country's most important landscapes and wildlife. And notice I said house…10.0s
- 13618:32With a voiced z sound at the end, not house…4.2s
- 13718:36With the unvoiced s. Now, that's because this is the verb form meaning to give a place for a person or animal to live.8.9s
- 13818:45Landscape is what we can see when we look around, especially in nature. For example, mountains, hills, rivers, and so on.8.6s
- 13918:54Wildlife refers to the animals, plants, and insects, etc. that live in nature. Let's listen again.7.2s
- 14019:01This time, try and catch the missing wildlife words. This is tough. You ready?6.6s
- 14119:07So far on our coast to coast adventure, we've covered the Lake District leg, but it's time to join up to 5 million visitors a year by heading deep into Dale country.9.8s
- 14219:17The Yorkshire Dales are actually 42% mand…3.3s
- 14319:21Some of the country's most important landscapes and wildlife along with red squirrels, paragrin falcans, and many rare plants and mosses.8.8s
- 14419:30The dales are home to some distinctive sheep breeds such as swale dales with their black faces and curled horns. First, we have red squirrels.9.8s
- 14519:40Squirrels. This is a small animal with a big tail and large ears that collects food and stores it for winter.7.3s
- 14619:48Now, this word is notoriously difficult to pronounce. The squ cluster at the beginning can be hard. Squirrel. Squirrel.10.4s
- 14719:58Next. Peragan falcons. Peragrins are a bird of prey that are incredibly fast when diving.8.9s
- 14820:07I wonder if you have them where you live. Next up, mosses. These are small, soft green plants that grow on damp trees and rocks.9.8s
- 14920:17And finally, sheep breeds such as swale dales, a tough breed of sheep from the Yorkshire Dales, famous for its rounded horns.9.0s
- 15020:26Now, we've got even more advanced vocabulary in this clip. Words like leg, meaning a part of a journey…7.8s
- 15120:34And mand, a word that describes areas of Britain covered in rough grass.6.2s
- 15220:41So, if you've caught some of these advanced words, well done indeed. Okay, are you ready for our final clip, which is our C2 level clip?9.8s
- 15320:51We're going to listen to actor and comedian Danny Dyier. He's going to tell us how he likes his tea.6.4s
- 15420:57Now, I warn you, this clip is incredibly challenging on so many levels. First, we have Danny Dyier's strong cockney accent.9.9s
- 15521:07We also have some informal colloquial language, some non-standard grammar, and of course, some C2 level vocabulary.8.3s
- 15621:16Listen to Danny Dyier explaining his perfect cup of tea, and answer the question, how does Danny like his tea? I like a strong cup of tea. And I know some people are very different.9.8s
- 15721:26Some people leave the tea bag in. That's always a nutty one. I like my cup of tea. It should be the same color as a Wvers. A Worther's original. Is that a British thing? Worthers.9.8s
- 15821:35Oh yeah. Love a Wvers. Interesting.2.0s
- 15921:37Worthers because when I do a play, you know when it's a matinea and it's all the old the old lot in the old girl sitting in the front row falling the kit, but you get a hit of Worthers…8.5s
- 16021:46As you walk out on the stage. It's like makes you faint. Although I like the smell of it. So I Yeah.5.5s
- 16121:52So, I'd leave the tea bag in as long as possible and then rinse the life out of it. Some people use a tea bag again, didn't they? And I get that. Woo!6.2s
- 16221:58That was tough, wasn't it? Okay, feel free to go back and listen again. You can even slow the clip down if you want.7.0s
- 16322:05So, when describing his tea habits, Danny says he likes a strong cup of tea. He likes it to be the same color as a Worther's original.10.1s
- 16422:15That's a great way to describe how you like your tea. He is very creative. Worthers are a traditional German sweet, but they're very popular in the UK.9.4s
- 16522:25They are delicious. They have a caramel color. I wonder if you've ever tried them. And he leaves the tea bag in the water as long as possible.9.0s
- 16622:34Sounds like my cup of tea. Let's listen again and go a bit deeper into some of the expressions Danny uses and take a closer look at his accent. Are you ready?10.1s
- 16722:44Try and fill each gap with one word. I like a strong cup of tea. And I know some people are very different. Some people leave the tea bag in. That's always a nutty one.8.3s
- 16822:52I like my cup of tea. It should be the same color as a Worthers. A Worthers original. Is that a British thing? Worthers. Oh yeah. Love a Worthers. Interesting.9.0s
- 16923:01Worthers because when I do a play, you know when it's a matinea and it's all the old the old lot in the old girls sitting in the front row fulling the kit.7.0s
- 17023:08But you get a hit of Worthers as you walk out on the stage. It's like makes you faint. Although I like the smell of it. So I Yeah.7.3s
- 17123:16So, I'd leave the tea bag in as long as possible and then rinse the life out of it. Some people use a tea bag again, didn't they? And I get that. Okay.6.8s
- 17223:22Danny doesn't say, "I like a strong cup of tea." He says, "I like a strong cup of tea." Dropping the vv sound. Cup of tea.9.7s
- 17323:32Some people leave the tea bag in. That's always a nutty one. So, nutty here is an informal word that means a little bit strange or crazy.10.2s
- 17423:42I pronounced the th in werethers with a vv sound.5.9s
- 17523:48But did you notice that Danny used a vv instead vv werever's original.6.3s
- 17623:55So this is very common in cocknney and some other British accents.4.1s
- 17723:59He then talks about when he does matinea plays or should I say matinea with a glottle stop in the middle.9.2s
- 17824:08This is another common feature of cochnney accents. Replacing the t in the middle of a word with a glottle stop. Matinea.8.8s
- 17924:18A matinea is an afternoon performance of a theater play or film. They're popular with families with children and older people and me.10.0s
- 18024:28I'm not one for a late night and you can often get tickets a bit cheaper than usual. Jing.5.8s
- 18124:33Next, we have the wonderful informal expression falling a kip, which means falling asleep.6.5s
- 18224:40We can use kip as an informal word for a short sleep or a nap.5.3s
- 18324:45I must say falling a kip is not very common, but using kip on its own is fairly common.7.3s
- 18424:53Now, after leaving the tea bag in the water for as long as possible, Danny likes to rinse the life out of it.7.7s
- 18525:01So, this is a great informal expression that in this context means to squeeze out every last bit of flavor and strength from the tea bag.10.2s
- 18625:11And finally, we have didn't they. So, this is a non-standard form of the question tag. Didn't they? Didn't they?8.7s
- 18725:20So notice that according to grammar rules…3.3s
- 18825:23The tail question should technically be formed with don't they in the present simple using didn't they is quite common in some dialects.9.5s
- 18925:33I wonder if you've heard it used before. Okay, did you pick up on anything else interesting or unusual or surprising in that clip or any other clips?9.0s
