Good evening. According to recent statistics,
it's said that learning English
can bring a series of benefits. Among them are improved and widened
employment prospects. Exploring the world with confidence. Opening up a world of entertainment
and popular culture. And believe it or not,
it can even help you with your problem solving skills. Today,
we are going to learn English with news. In this lesson, we'll understand
the vocabulary and structures they use. And you'll take a quiz
to check your comprehension while seeing examples of news
related vocabulary from TV series and real events. The news is a great resource
because no matter if it's art, celebrities, politics or any other topic,
that's interesting. You can find new broadcasts
that you will enjoy by watching the news. You improve your listening. Boost your vocabulary
and expand your cultural repertoire to discuss the topic
you like with actual English speakers. If you are new here and don't

and use the news to improve your English. Before we jump into that,
just like the news, podcasts are great and convenient way
to create an English listening habit and you can do it for free
on the RealLife English app. It’s the only place
where you can get a transcript for the full episode and learn
all of the important vocabulary and more. Plus, many learners
like you tell me that they are frustrated that they don't have anyone to practice
what they are learning with. Well, on the RealLife
app, you can have conversations in English with people
from all around the world at the touch of a button
and discover new cultures. So if you are ready to step outside
of the classroom and live your English, then download the app now by searching
for RealLife English in the Apple App or Google Play Store, or simply click
up here or down in the description below. As I mentioned
at the beginning of the video, watching or listening to the news
is a great source of listening inputs. This will eventually help you
with grammar and vocabulary as they will come to you
in a more intuitive way. Listening to English
will help you get a feel for the language and build a memory bank in your brain
with the words you have seen and heard. That's why you shouldn't worry if you're not able to understand
100% of what's being said. Even when you have the news in your own language, you are still able
to understand the context, even if you are doing something else
while watching or seeing them. Let's try. You should focus on
getting the main message, not only understanding every word. Listen to the news opening
and take the quiz. I hope you
enjoyed learning all about the news today. If you can't get enough of lessons

we made on the Real Life English Channel. Let's check out a clip from that. We have some breaking news out of a fast food restaurant
in Washington, D.C. An unidentified exchange
student was in McDonald's when a team member asked him,
What would you like? The exchange student was confident because he'd practiced many times
before in his head. He replied, “I'll have a sprite, please”. He'd been waiting a while
when his name was called.
