Hi guys, welcome back to Podcast and
Chill. I'm Gwen
>> and I'm Leo.
>> Today we're going to learn 100 short
English questions and answers.
>> These are not just some random ones.
They are useful questions and answers
for everyday life.
Yeah, with these 100 you can talk about
almost anything from the weather to
travel
>> or from school to work. Pretty much
everything.
>> That's right. With these 100 questions
and answers, you don't need to fear
small talk.
>> Yep. Small talk will fear you instead.
>> And what if you're afraid you have
nothing to say to your crush? Well,
learn these and you can talk until they
fall in love with you.
>> Okay. So, how do we do this? It's very
simple.
>> We will ask you a question. Then we will
give you an example answer.
>> You say the answer out loud and then you
listen to us say the answer so you can
check your pronunciation.
>> Don't worry about the number 100. This
practice will be fast and fun, like a
car ride with your best friends.
>> It's also really easy and great for
beginners to improve their speaking
skills and confidence.
>> Isn't it cool? All right, are you ready?
Let's get started.
>> The first topic is daily life and
morning routine. You will listen to 10
pairs of questions and answers about it.
So, I ask a question and then show you
the answer on the screen.
>> You read that answer out loud and then
listen to me say it to check your
pronunciation.
>> After checking the pronunciation, you
say the answer one more time. It's very
simple, isn't it?
>> Now, here comes the first question.
>> Do you wake up early?
Yes, around 6:30. I like some quiet time
before the day starts.
>> Now, repeat the answer.
>> Good job. Let's head to the next
question.
>> Do you eat breakfast every day?
>> Yes, always. It gives me energy for
school and work.
>> One more time, friends.
>> Well done. Now, question number three.
>> Do you drink coffee in the morning?
>> Yes, one cup every morning. It helps me
feel awake.
>> Can you say it again? Amazing.
Here comes the fourth question.
>> Do you usually take the bus?
>> Yes, I take the bus to work. It's cheap
and I can listen to music.
>> Say the answer one more time.
Good job. Are you ready for question
number five?
>> Do you check the news every morning?
>> Yes, I read the news online while I eat
breakfast.
>> All right, one more time.
>> You're doing very well. Now, the next
question. Do you exercise in the
morning?
>> Sometimes I do yoga or stretching. It
makes me feel fresh
>> again, friends.
>> Awesome. We're proud of you. And
question number seven is,
>> do you make your bed after waking up?
Yes, always. A tidy bed makes my room
look neat.
>> Let's repeat after Gwen.
>> Amazing job. Are you ready for the
eighth question?
>> Do you listen to music in the morning?
Yes, soft music puts me in a good mood.
>> Can you say it one more time?
>> Well done, friends. We're about to
finish the first 10 questions and
answers.
>> Do you pack your lunch before work?
>> Yes, most days. It saves money and is
healthier.
Okay, friends, let's say it out loud
again.
>> You're doing very well. Now, it's time
for the last question about daily life
and morning routine.
>> Do you plan your day in advance?
>> Yes, I write a short to-do list. It
helps me focus. I want to hear you say
the answer one more time, friends.
>> Congratulations.
You just finished your first 10 pairs of
questions and answers.
>> How do you feel? Is it easy or is it
hard?
>> If it is a little fast for you, you can
always slow down.
>> That's right. Don't worry if you go
slow. Slow, but sure is better than
fast, but not last.
>> Leo's right. Replay parts you didn't
hear clearly or pause the video to say
the answers. We're always here to help.
>> Okay, everyone. Are you ready for topic
number two?
>> Our second topic is food, shopping, and
eating out.
>> This time we're switching roles.
>> That's right. I'll ask the questions
this time
>> and I'll give you the example answers.
Don't worry, it works the same way.
>> You'll still repeat after us and
practice your pronunciation.
Okay, are you ready?
>> Let's get to the first question.
>> Do you like cooking?
>> Yes, I cook simple meals. I like making
pasta and sandwiches.
>> Now repeat the answer.
Nice work. Let's try question number

>> Do you drink coffee or tea?
>> I drink both coffee in the morning and
tea in the evening.
>> One more time, friends.

question. Do you like spicy food?
>> Not really. Spicy food makes my mouth
hurt.

Yes, always. It helps me remember what I
need and save money.

it's expensive. Can you say it one more
time?
>> Well done, friends. Just two more
questions left.
>> Do you have a favorite restaurant?
>> Yes, it's a small Italian place near my
house.
>> Okay, friends, let's say it out loud
again.
You're almost there. Here's the final
question about food, shopping, and
eating out.
>> Do you like trying new restaurants?
>> Yes, but not very often because eating
out is expensive.
>> I want to hear you say the answer one
more time, friends.

your second 10 pairs of questions and
answers.

easier?
>> Remember, you can always slow down if
it's still a little fast for you.
>> That's right. Just keep at it. Practice
makes perfect.
>> Now, let's move to our third topic.
>> We're going to practice 10 pairs of

Amazing.
You're getting better. And the seventh

cheaper and more comfortable.

We're almost finished. Here comes

again.
>> Perfect. Here's our final question about
work, study, and media. How many hours
are you online every day?
>> A lot. Maybe 6 hours, but I'm trying to
use the internet less.
>> I want to hear you say the answer one
more time, friends.
>> Great job. Wow, look at you. You just
finished 60 questions and answers.
How do you feel now? Do you feel more
confident with your English?
>> Or maybe you feel a little worried.
Maybe you said some words wrong or spoke
too slowly.
>> If that happened, don't worry. You are
here to practice and improve, not to be
perfect.
>> It's okay to make mistakes, friends.
Mistakes help us learn. Always remember
that.
>> That's right. We're proud of you. You're
working hard and you're doing great.
Keep it up.
>> Tell us how you feel in the comments
below.
>> Let's see after 60 questions. How many
emotions did you go through? Happy?
Tired? Hungry? Maybe all of them at
once.
>> Now, before we go to the last 40
questions, let's take a short break.
>> Gwen's right. Stand up, move a little,
and let your body and brain relax.
>> And don't forget some water. A dry mouth
is not good for speaking.
>> Great job. Now, let's explore our fourth
topic.
>> It is travel, friends, weekends, and
free time.
>> Time to switch again.

>> and I'll share the example answers with
you. Let's keep practicing. Is everyone

all busy with work and school.
>> How about one more time, friends?
>> Great job. Time for weekend questions.

Saturday mornings.

again.

question.

weekends?
later than weekdays, maybe around
midnight.
>> I want to hear you say the answer one
more time, friends.
>> Incredible work. You've now practiced
100 questions and answers total.

pronunciation is getting better, too.
>> Keep practicing these questions. Soon
you'll use them in real conversations.
>> Remember, making mistakes is normal.
Just keep trying and have fun.
>> Wow, look how far you've come. You and I
just finished 100 questions and answers
together.
>> We don't know how you feel right now,
but we're really proud of you.
>> Now that you finished, 100 questions
don't sound so scary, right? They're
actually pretty easy. And the best part
is they're super useful.
>> That's right. You can use them every day
with your friends, your family, your
crush, or even new people you meet.
>> So, how can you get even better? Here
are three simple tips.
>> First, listen to these questions again.
Play them many times until you remember
them.
>> Second, read the answers out loud. Don't
be shy. Practice speaking every day.
>> Third, and most important, use these
questions in real life. Talk to people
at school, at work, or in your
neighborhood.
>> The more you practice, the more
confident you will feel.
>> And don't be afraid of mistakes. Every
mistake helps you learn something new.
Don't give up when it feels hard.
>> That's so true. The only way to get
better is to keep practicing.
>> So friends, keep practicing, keep
speaking,
>> and keep believing in yourself.
>> Thanks for hanging out with us today.
I'm Gwen.
>> And I'm Leo. See you in the next episode
of Podcast and Chill.
