am a wilderness explorer in tribe 54 sweat lodge 12 so Russell is a member of wilderness explorers now Wilderness like in the name of this organization refers to an area in the wild like a forest or the mountains this is actually a fictional version of Boy and Girl Scouts of America a youth program where kids can learn skills and also earn earn badges for their achievements this is super common for young people in the United States to participate in in fact I Was A Boy Scout myself I remember learning how to whittle a stick into

a spear uh build a fire and even go on some really fun camping trips just like Russell Boy and Girl Scouts aspire to achieve different badges for their accomplishments are you in need of any assistance today sir so here we can see Russell is asking if the old man is in need of any assistance that's a formal way to ask if you need any help I could help you cross your yard no I could help you cross your porch no in the USA it's culturally thought of as honorable to help an older person cross the

street to ensure they safely get to the other side however it's quite funny that Russell is so focused on helping Carl cross something as if there were no other way to help him even offering to help him cross his small porch a small raised area at the entrance to a house it's like a little outdoor space where you can sit and relax well I got to help you cross something uh no I'm doing fine in this context I'm doing fine means that he doesn't need any help and can manage on his own it's also a

polite way to turn down or decline someone's offer to help we're here to help you no no back off girls I'm doing fine first you must gain self-confidence by striking out on your own go away I'm trying to get to shore CD these these are my wilderness explorer badges we see Russell in his full uniform a cap a huge backpack filled with all kinds of gear an orange Scout scarf or neckerchief and a sash covered with various badges a badge is a small emblem or patch that represents an achievement for Scouts badges are earned by

completing specific tasks or skills now let's practice connect this spe with this next sentence you may notice one is missing the t- sound from notice is between between two vowels so it becomes a tap t d sound notice then the n Sound from one is linked to the folling word one is also try to reproduce the rhythm of this sentence he stresses the word you notice one and missing listen again and repeat you may notice one is missing you may notice one is [Music] missing this my assisting the elderly badge if I get it I

will become a senior wilderness explorer Russell is missing just one badge called assisting the elderly the word elderly is a respectful way to refer to older adults usually those who are retired or in the later stages of Life calling them old would be considered rude for extreme mountaineering lore congratulations Jimmy for wild animal Defensive Arts congratulations Brandon for assisting the elderly uh Russell is there someone that uh excuse me pardon me old man coming through I'm here for him congratulations Russell sir Russell for assisting the elderly and for performing above and beyond the call of

dut dy I would like to award you the highest honor I can bestow the Elli [Music] badge wow well as we can see at first Carl is not willing to be assisted and he uses one trick we're about to see but first a quick question what do you do to remember all of the new words and expressions you're learning like in this lesson we've already covered some expressions like turn down elderly Wilderness and porch and by the end of this lesson we're going to cover a bunch more Expressions but will you be able to remember

them and use them when you need them I mean this is super common for English Learners you get into a conversation and right when you need that expression that you know you've learned it doesn't come to you it's like your mind just goes blank and then you pause you try to remember but the flow of your speech has already been ruined because you couldn't remember that expression I know that it feels really frust frustrating to not be able to express yourself in the way that you'd like I've been there myself learning six different languages and

that is exactly why we created the real life English app to help you to become a confident natural English speaker on the app every lesson like this one with TV series movies podcasts and more comes with an interactive transcript and flashcards of the most advanced vocabulary by practicing as little as 10 minutes per day you'll be able to remember the new words and expressions forever and you do this with Innovative space repetition technology that we've built into the app which helps to remind you of the word right as you're about to forget it I mean

can you just imagine what it would be like to remember all of these words when you speak imagine how powerful you would feel when English is no longer a barrier in your life and that is exactly what you get with the real life English app so what are you waiting for you can get this exact lesson with all the resources I mentioned and so many more by clicking the link down in the description below you can also search for real life English in the Apple App Store or Google Play Store but for sure the most

convenient if you want to study with this lesson is just by clicking that link on your smartphone so hope to see you there so you want to assist an old person yep then I'll be a senior wilderness explorer you ever heard of a snipe snipe bird be eyes to get rid of Russell Carl distracts his attention and tells him about a small annoying bird in his garden G this is a snipe a long beaked bird typically found in swamps Carl describes his eyes as Beady small round and curious he says the bird gobbles his aelas

a type of flower to gobble or gobble up means to eat something quickly and greedily what do we have here look at it it's gobbling up all my fruit did you notice how Carl dropped the question word at the beginning of the sentence listen again you ever heard of a snipe can you tell me which word should be put there do did have [Music] had it is have have you ever heard of something that is the present perfect tense which we use to talk about experiences in someone's life up to the moment of speaking natives

often drop auxiliary words like this in informal speech I'm elderly and infirm I can't catch it Carl cleverly says he's infirm and can't catch the bird in other words he's not physically strong due to his old age me me I'll do it oh I don't know it's awfully crafty you'd have to clap your hands three times to lure it in I'll find the Mr Fred in he warns the boy that the bird is awfully crafty which means it's very tricky or clever awful usually means something is very bad however here it's used as an emphasizer

meaning very when said about a person the word crafty means clever at getting what you want especially by dishonest methods and what is that supposed to be I'm just a frightened old man don't listen to him these ogres are crafty that is your father painted green no it's Shrek honest ow take them away you'd have to clap your hands three times to lure it in I'll find the Mr Frederickson so if you want to catch a bird or a small animal you might need to lure it in which means to attract it or make it

come closer usually by offering food as bait or making a sound obviously claing three times will do nothing to attract a bird so it might be appropriate to say that Carl is sending Russell on a wild goose chase this is a meaningless search for something that is difficult or impossible to find it often involves a lot of effort without any meaningful results well this is a wild goose chase there's no one in the car open the trunk well I'll be i s a case there's nothing but musical instruments in here I'm telling you we're on

a wild goose chase and believe me what's the matter did you hear that I thought I heard something oh come on come on let's get out of here now pay attention to the connected speech you have to clap your hands three times to lure it in The Vow in two is reduced to awah sound uh then the t- sound from it is another tap t and the stress falls on the words lur and in repeat after me lure it in I think it's Burrows two blocks down what do you think Carl is referring to when

he mentions the bird's burrow the place where it eats its home its [Music] cage a burrow is a hole or tunnel in the ground that animals dig to live or use for shelter Birds usually live in nests up in trees or other high areas however apparently Snipes live close to the ground okay so that's how Carl got rid of Russell on their first encounter in the next scene we'll see him flying away in his house this house isn't just a house to him it's full of memories of his wife Ellie and their life together they

shared many dreams including their big goal of one day traveling to Paradise Falls in fact many regard the beginning of up where we see Carl and Ellie's life together to be one of the most emotional scenes of any Pixar movie after Ellie passed away the house became his way of holding on to her and everything they built together and so he embarks on their dream journey together with his house however Russell has unintentionally stowed away hidden himself in the house and gets dragged [Music] along [Music] huh I've never been in a floating house before goggles

look at this stuff wow you going on a trip Paradise Falls a land lost in time you're going to South America Mr Frederick don't touch that you'll soil it you know most people take a play but you're smart because you'll have all your TV and clocks and stuff wao is this how you steer your house does it really work oh this makes it go right and that way left hey look buildings that building's so close I can almost touch it wow this is great you should try this Mr Frederickson look there's a bus that could

take me home two blocks [Music] away [Music] huh I've never been in a floating house before when you see a balloon rising in the air it floats so a flying house can also be called a floating house when something is floating it stays on the surface of water or in the air without sinking or falling goggles look at this stuff Russell sees a photo of young Ellie wearing goggles goggles are type of special glasses that protect your eyes Pilots scientists or swimmers would usually wear goggles Russell then sees an open Atlas with a picture of

Paradise Falls so he asks wow you going on a trip you go for a walk but you go on a trip these are collocations you should remember to use correctly that's why it's more effective to study new vocabulary in chunks rather than word by word you can get this and more strategies to never forget new words in this lesson I recommend you watch it next so to go on a trip means to travel somewhere let me give you some more examples you can go on a business trip go on a hike go on a picnic

but go on vacation without an article Paradise Falls a land lost in time you're going to South America Mr Fredick don't touch that and again we see how natives emit the question word at the beginning of a question what would we use here are were do [Music] did are you going to South America Mr Frederickson don't touch that you'll soil it to soil means to make something dirty I feel like I could be indoors all night could use a fork and knife and never soil my suit wa is this how you steer your house does

it really work as we see to steer means to control the direction in this case the direction of the house in which way it floats that's why this part of a car is called the steering wheel oh this makes it go right and that one left as the house tilts right and left Carl is being thrown from side to side he yells at Russell to knock it off or stop doing that we would often use this phrase when we are annoyed by what another person is doing you can also hear cut it out which means

the same knock it off boy I don't have any meat for you get down hey look buildings that my building so close I could almost touch it nice example of connected speech here did you catch it because the word almost ends in a t- sound and touch starts with a T Russell simply merged them by saying almost touch and then he linked touch with the word it resulting in this completely linked phrase almost touch it that building's so close I could almost touch it I can almost touch it all right guys now it's time to

test everything that we've covered so far with these two scenes so you're going to watch again without subtitles and see how good your comprehension is the second time around and we'll add an extra challenge by having some quiz questions along the way are you ready let's do this photo SD card good afternoon my name my name is Russell and I am a wilderness explorer in tribe 54 sweat lodge 12 are you in need of any assistance today sir no I could help you cross the street no I could help you cross your yard no I
