单集简介 ...

Learn English with a short story on LEP. In this episode I am reading "The Man Who Could Work Miracles" by HG Wells (adapted into modern English). First you can listen to the story, then I summarise it again in my own words, discuss my interpretations of its meaning, explain how you can use stories like this to improve your English, and teach some vocabulary which came up. 📄 Get the PDF with story text, notes and vocabulary list here 👉 https://teacherluke.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/941.-The-Man-Who-Could-Work-Miracles-Learn-English-with-a-Short-Story-PDF.pdf 🏆 Sign up to LEP Premium to get all vocabulary explanations for this story in premium series P69 👉 https://www.teacherluke.co.uk/premium 🔗 Episode page on my website 👉 https://teacherluke.co.uk/2025/06/23/941-the-man-who-could-work-miracles-learn-english-with-a-short-story/ 📖 Read the original (unadapted) story text here 👉 https://revistaliterariakatharsis.org/manmiracles.pdf Hosted on Acast.

  • Hello listeners, welcome back to Luke's English Podcast.

  • How are you doing today?

  • I hope you're doing fine.

  • So, it's time for another story episode.

  • In this one, I'm going to tell you a story and help you to use it.

  • to learn English.

  • That's the idea.

  • Now, there are plenty of things that I could say in the introduction to this episode.

  • I could talk to you about how you could use this story to improve your English.

  • And I could teach you some bits of vocabulary that I feel that you need to know at the beginning before we get started.

  • And I could say other comments and things.

  • But you know what?

  • I'm not going to do any of those things this time.

  • Instead, I'm going to jump straight into the story as soon as possible.

  • So what you could do is you could consider this to be a sort of mini test of your listening skills.

  • Can you understand the story?

  • Can you follow it?

  • Can you deal with those moments when perhaps you don't understand certain bits of vocabulary?

  • Can you follow it?

  • all the way through until the end.
