21 分钟Hello and welcome to the English Like a Native podcast.
My name is Anna and you're listening to week 17, day 4 of Your English 5 a Day, the second season.
With this series, I'm on a mission to help you make English part of your daily life.
It's important to have a habit of dipping your toe into English on a regular basis.
if you want to make real progress.
So even if this is all you can do, it's better than doing nothing.
So sit back, relax and enjoy my dulcet tones.
The sound of my voice.
OK, now you don't need to worry about making any notes.
I've done that for you.
So the five items of vocabulary we'll cover today, plus all the other episodes in the entire series.
are all featured in my vocabulary vault,
a database of all the vocabulary with definitions and examples so that you can access that at any point to remind yourself of what's being covered.
You can access it via the link in the show notes.
Now, as always, let's begin with a snapshot of what's to come.
Listen carefully.
The train began to wind through the narrow mountain pass when it suddenly screeched to a halt,
startling several passengers as their luggage tumbled from the compartments overhead.
The conductor announced with a sigh that a fallen tree had derailed the journey,
meaning the train would be stuck in the remote valley until help arrived.
