Transcript
00:03Alan, this species of Variforman has been extinct since the Cretaceous period.
00:08I mean, this thing is about this thing.
00:09What?
00:19Dr. Alan Grant and Dr. Ali Sattler, two paleontologists who study dinosaurs,
00:25are invited to a mysterious island to give their expert opinion on a new theme park.
00:30But this isn't any ordinary park.
00:33It's a place where scientists have brought dinosaurs back to life.
00:37So when they arrive, they see their first dinosaur towering over the trees,
00:41and they're completely awestruck.
00:43All right, so towering, awestruck, extinct, all these expressions,
00:48and the many other ones you'll learn today,
00:50are all included in a deck of flashcards that we created for this lesson.
00:54All you need to do to get these is click the link below using your phone,
00:58which will take you directly to this very lesson with Jurassic Park on our app.
01:02If your goal is to speak English like this, without translating your head and forgetting words,
01:08then our flashcards were made for you.
01:10So go and check out this lesson on our app right now.
01:13Okay, so we'll begin our adventure today by watching and learning with the first scene.
01:18Then after that, still in this lesson, we're gonna watch and learn with a second scene,
01:22another really good one from Jurassic Park.
01:24And then at the end, we're gonna have the best part.
01:27We're gonna test your comprehension by watching everything again,
01:30this time without any subtitles,
01:31and I'm sure you'll be able to understand 100% of the clips.
01:35You'll see.
01:43You're dead.
01:45You're crazy son of a bitch, you're dead.
01:48I think we can just tear up the rule book on it.
01:51Cold-bloodedness, it doesn't apply.
01:52That totally runs as a warm-blooded creature.
01:54This thing doesn't live in a swamp.
01:56This thing's got what, a 25, 27-foot neck?
01:58A brachiosaur, a 30.
02:06How fast are they?
02:08Well, we clocked the T-Rex at 32 miles an hour.
02:13T-T-Rex?
02:14Mm-hmm.
02:16You said you've got a T-Rex?
02:17Uh-huh.
02:19Say again?
02:21We have a T-Rex.
02:23Oh.
02:24Put your head between your knees.
02:27Dr. Grant.
02:28My dear Dr. Sattler.
02:31Welcome
02:32to Jurassic Park.
02:48They're moving in herds.
02:52They do move in herds.
02:54Alright, now let's analyze all the advanced expressions we just saw.
03:01They're dead.
03:02You crazy son of a bitch, you dead.
03:06Okay, so that was not an insult.
03:08Son of a bitch is a very common expression in American English, and it's important to
03:13understand how it was used here.
03:15While it can be offensive when used to insult someone, in this context, it's actually expressing
03:20admiration and disbelief.
03:22Check out this example.
03:23Dylan!
03:27You son of a bitch.
03:31So, Malcolm is saying Hammond is crazy, in a good way, for achieving something so incredible.
03:36So, in the next line, we see Dr. Grant so shockingly excited to see dinosaurs for the
03:41first time that he actually struggles to speak.
03:44He's basically saying that everything they thought they knew about dinosaurs is wrong.
03:55When you tear up something, you literally rip it into pieces, like this.
03:59But here, it's used figuratively.
04:01He means they can throw away all the old scientific theories because they've been proven wrong.
04:07By the way, notice the pronunciation, tear, not tear.
04:12Tear, like a teardrop, refers to the liquid that comes out of your eyes when you cry.
04:17To tear is to rip apart.
04:19The two words share the same spelling, though.
04:22Totally wrong, this is a warm-bodied creature.
04:24So, Alan is saying that science believes dinosaurs are cold-blooded animals, like lizards and snakes,
04:29which can't regulate their own body temperature.
04:32They need the sun to warm up.
04:34But here, he realizes these dinosaurs are warm-blooded creatures, like mammals and birds,
04:40meaning they can control their own body temperature internally.
04:44This thing doesn't live in a swamp.
04:46This thing's got what, a 25, 27 foot neck?
04:48A Brachiosaurus 30.
04:50Here's something interesting about measurements.
04:53In the US, they use feet and inches, while most of the world uses meters and centimeters.
04:5827 feet is about 8.2 meters.
05:01That's huge.
05:03One important detail about the language here is that you should say the measurement in a singular form,
05:07like 20 foot when using it as an adjective, but 20 feet when it's a noun.
05:14Anyway, let's keep going.
05:15How fast are they?
05:17Well, we clocked the T-Rex to 32 miles an hour.
05:21When you clock something, you measure its speed.
05:24It comes from an idea of timing with a clock.
05:26So, for example, police officers clock speeding cars, and coaches clock runners on the track.
05:33How fast are they?
05:34Well, we clocked the T-Rex to 32 miles an hour.
05:38You might have noticed that this movie is full of scientific terms, like Brachiosaurus, T-Rex,
05:45Cretaceous period, Jurassic, and many others.
05:49Now, you don't need to stress about understanding every single one of these words, as they're a bit more technical.
05:54But just so you know, the Jurassic and Cretaceous are geological time periods from millions of years ago when dinosaurs
06:03lived.
06:03And T-Rex, which is short for Tyrannosaurus rex, and Brachiosaurus are specific dinosaur species.
06:10Again, these are highly specialized terms, and many native English speakers wouldn't fully understand them without studying paleontology.
06:28A herd is a group of animals that stay together, usually plant-eating animals, like cows, sheep, or in this
06:35case, dinosaurs.
06:36We also say a flock of birds, a pack of wolves, or a school of fish.
06:42Grant is amazed because this proves dinosaurs had social behavior.
06:47They lived in groups, just like many animals today.
06:50Hey, by the way, I was telling you about this before, but did you know you can practice all these
06:54words you're learning on our own app?
06:56Because here's the thing, if you want to internalize these expressions so they're there for you the moment you need
07:01to use them,
07:02you know, in a real conversation, then reviewing and practicing them is absolutely necessary.
07:08Ethan, Xenia, and I were language coaches, and we have over 35 years of combined experience teaching English.
07:15And the truth, the fact that we have verified is that becoming fluent in English is all about the following
07:21idea.
07:22Use it or lose it.
07:24And this has been proven by scientific studies that show that not practicing, not using the words,
07:30is the reason why English learners, just like you, can understand what you hear but can't speak.
07:36So this is why we created our own app, to help you practice all this vocabulary with flashcards like these
07:44that come with each one of our lessons.
07:46And also so you can practice all the words you know with other learners in video calls.
07:50It is the perfect place for you if you want to develop real-life fluency in English and you want
07:55to see yourself making progress faster.
07:58I'm going to leave a link in the description below that will take you directly to this lesson with Jurassic
08:03Park on the app.
08:04So just click using your phone and I'll see you inside.
08:09Now let's go back to an earlier scene in the movie, one of the most powerful dialogues in Jurassic Park.
08:14So here's what's happening.
08:16Before the scientists see the dinosaurs for the first time, they're having lunch with John Hammond, the park's creator.
08:22This is where we meet Ian Malcolm, the brilliant theorist who becomes the voice of reason in the film.
08:28This scene is packed with advanced vocabulary, so get ready.
08:33Let's check it out.
08:38Don't you see the danger, John, inherent in what you're doing here?
08:43Genetic power is the most awesome force the planet's ever seen, but you wield it like a kid that's found
08:47his dad's gun.
08:48It's hardly appropriate to start hurling generalizations.
08:51If I may, I'll tell you the problem with the scientific power that you're using here.
08:56It didn't require any discipline to attain it.
09:00You know, you read what others had done and you took the next step.
09:03You didn't earn the knowledge for yourselves, so you don't take any responsibility for it.
09:09You stood on the shoulders of geniuses to accomplish something as fast as you could, and before you even knew
09:14what you had, you patented it and packaged it and slapped it on a plastic lunchbox, and now you're selling
09:21it.
09:21You're going to sell it.
09:22Well, I don't think you're giving us our due credit.
09:26Our scientists have done things which nobody's ever done before.
09:29Yeah, yeah, but your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could that they didn't stop to think
09:33if they should.
09:36Dr. Grant, if there's one person here who could appreciate what I'm trying to do.
09:42The world has just changed so radically, and we're all running to catch up.
09:48I don't want to jump to any conclusions, but look.
09:52Dinosaurs and man, two species separated by 65 million years of evolution, have just been suddenly thrown back into the
10:00mix together.
10:01How can we possibly have the slightest idea of what to expect?
10:08So, Dr. Malcolm is warning Hammond about the dangers of genetic engineering.
10:14Yeah, don't you see the danger, John, inherent?
10:19Something inherent is naturally part of something else.
10:22It's built-in.
10:23It can't be separated.
10:25For example, there is inherent risk in extreme sports or inherent beauty in nature.
10:30Here, genetic power is the most awesome force the planet's ever seen, but you wield it like a kid that's
10:34found his dad's gun.
10:36Genetic relates to DNA and genes, the code that makes living things what they are.
10:41In the movie, scientists use genetic material from dinosaurs to bring them back to life.
10:46So, Malcolm says Hammond is wielding genetic power without thinking about the consequences,
10:52like a kid playing with something dangerous.
10:54To wield means to hold and use something powerful, usually a weapon or a tool, like you can wield a
11:02sword, wield power, or wield influence.
11:05It's hardly appropriate to start hurling generalizations.
11:08Hurling means throwing something forcefully, like hurling a ball, but you can also hurl insults or accusations.
11:14Now, generalizations are things we say about a whole group that may not be true in every single case.
11:23For example, saying all teenagers are obsessed with their phones, or men don't like romantic movies.
11:29These are generalizations because they make claims that aren't true for everyone in those groups.
11:34It's hardly appropriate to start hurling generalizations, if I may.
11:38The lawyer tries to defend Hammond, but Malcolm cuts him off.
11:43Now, he uses a phrase there that makes the interruption slightly more polite.
11:47If I may.
11:48This is a bit formal, but definitely something that you could say in any occasion to show respect and ask
11:54for permission to speak.
11:56And you might also hear, if I may say so, or if I may add.
12:00Check out this example.
12:20In this context, earned doesn't mean getting paid with money.
12:24It means you worked hard and deserve something through your own effort.
12:27Like, if a child behaves well, his parents could reward him by taking him to the zoo and say that
12:33he has earned it.
12:34You stood on the shoulders of geniuses to accomplish something as fast as you could.
12:38And the phrase, you stood on the shoulders of geniuses, is a reference to a famous metaphor from Isaac Newton,
12:45who said, if I have seen further, it is by standing on the shoulders of giants.
12:50This means using other people's discoveries to reach your own goals.
12:54Malcolm is saying that Hammond's team is taking other people's research and acting irresponsibly with them,
13:01rushing to make money out of these scientific discoveries.
13:05And before you even knew what you had, you patented it.
13:08When you patent something, you get legal protection for your invention so no one else can copy it.
13:14But Malcolm's real criticism comes next.
13:17And packaged it and slapped it on a plastic lunchbox.
13:19You could hear a phrase like this when someone turns something incredible into cheap commercial products.
13:25Slapped it on means putting something on quickly and carelessly, usually for marketing purposes.
13:31Think about how movie characters end up on lunchboxes, t-shirts, and toys.
13:36That's exactly what Malcolm means.
13:38And by the way, note the connected speech in this phrase.
13:42Unpackaged it and slapped it on a plastic lunchbox.
13:44Let's see what's happening here.
13:46First of all, the word slapped is pronounced like slapped.
13:50Now, because of the connected speech, the way natives really talk, all these words get linked and some even change
13:56their sounds.
13:57So, slapped and it get linked.
14:00Slapped it.
14:01Then, the T from it links to on.
14:04And as it does that, the T changes its sound to a fast D sound.
14:08Slapped it on.
14:09And finally, we also link on to a, pronouncing the a as a, slapped it on a.
14:16Now, I want to see you try it.
14:18Repeat after Ian.
14:19Slapped it on a plastic lunchbox.
14:21Slapped it on a plastic lunchbox.
14:29Nice.
14:30Let's move on with the scene.
14:32I don't think you're giving us our due credit.
14:35Our scientists have done things which nobody's ever done before.
14:38To give someone their due credit means to acknowledge their achievements fairly.
14:43You might also hear the similar expression, give credit where credit is due, which means the same thing.
14:49Recognizing people properly for their accomplishments.
14:52See this example.
14:53Was there any particular influence on your views?
14:59Um, credit where credit is due.
15:04The University of America in Samoa.
15:07So Hammond feels Malcolm isn't appreciating how amazing their scientific work is.
15:13Yeah, yeah, but your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could that they didn't stop to think
15:17if they should.
15:18When you're preoccupied with something, you're so focused on it that you can't think about anything else.
15:24This is one of the most famous quotes from the movie.
15:26He's saying they were so excited about being able to create dinosaurs that they never considered whether it was a
15:32good idea.
15:33Well, it's just changed so radically and we're all running to catch up.
15:38To catch up means to reach the same level as someone or something that was ahead of you.
15:43You might catch up with a friend who's walking faster.
15:46Or if you get sick, you might have to catch up on work when you come back to the office.
15:51Running to catch up makes it more urgent and desperate.
15:54Grant is saying that dinosaurs returning to the world is such a huge, sudden change that humans are desperately trying
16:01to understand and adapt to this new reality.
16:04I don't want to jump to any conclusions, but look.
16:08To jump to conclusions means to make decisions or judgments too quickly without having enough information.
16:14It's usually a mistake.
16:16A careful person might say, I don't want to jump to conclusions before sharing their thoughts.
16:22Why is he trying to kill us?
16:24It's classic villain. We've seen too much.
16:26Let's not jump to conclusions. We don't know.
16:29He's trying to kill us.
16:30He's trying to kill us.
16:32Two species separated by 65 million years of evolution have just been suddenly thrown back into the mix together.
16:40To be thrown into the mix is a great expression.
16:43The mix refers to a particular situation.
16:45When something is thrown into the mix, it's added to that situation, oftentimes making it more complex.
16:52Then he asks this.
16:54How can we possibly have the slightest idea of what to expect?
16:58The slightest idea means even a tiny bit of knowledge or understanding.
17:03It's often used in negative sentences, like, I don't have the slightest idea what you're talking about.
17:08Or, there isn't the slightest chance this will work.
17:12Grint is saying, it's impossible to predict what will happen when humans and dinosaurs coexist again.
17:17All right, now get ready for the most important part of the lesson.
17:22We're going to test your comprehension by watching everything again, this time without any subtitles.
17:27And I'm going to ask you some quiz questions just to see how well you've understood everything.
17:38You're dead.
17:39You crazy son of a bitch, you're dead.
17:42I think we give this character a little bit of cold-bloodedness.
17:46It doesn't apply.
17:46They're totally wrong.
17:47This is a warm-bodied creature.
17:48This thing doesn't live in a swamp.
17:50This thing's got what, a 25, 27-foot neck?
17:52A brachiosaurus, 30.
18:01How fast are they?
18:02Well, we clocked the T-Rex to 32 miles an hour.
18:07T-T-Rex?
18:09Mm-hmm.
18:10You said you've got a T-Rex?
18:11Uh-huh.
18:13Say again?
18:15We have a T-Rex.
18:17Oh.
18:19Put your, put your head between your knees.
18:21Dr. Grant.
18:22My dear Dr. Sattler, welcome to Jurassic Park.
18:42They're moving in herds.
18:44What does moving in herds tell us about dinosaur behavior?
18:48They hunt other animals together.
18:50They live in social groups.
18:52They migrate seasonally.
19:02They do move in herds.
19:05Don't you see the danger, John, inherent in what you're doing here?
19:10Genetic power is the most awesome force the planet's ever seen, but you wield it like
19:14a kid that's found his dad's gun.
19:16It's hardly appropriate to start hurling generalizations.
19:18If I may.
19:20I'll tell you the problem with the scientific power that you're using here.
19:23It didn't require any discipline to attain it.
19:27You know, you read what others had done, and you took the next step.
19:31You didn't earn the knowledge for yourselves.
19:33In Malcolm's criticism, what does earn the knowledge mean?
19:36Gain understanding through hard work, pay money for information, receive academic degrees.
19:49So, you don't take any responsibility for it.
19:54You stood on the shoulders of geniuses to accomplish something as fast as you could,
19:58and before you even knew what you had, you patented it and packaged it and slapped it on
20:03a plastic lunchbox, and now you're selling it.
20:06You want to sell it.
20:06Well, I don't think you're giving us our due credit.
20:10What does giving us our due credit mean?
20:13Providing payment, offering academic citations, getting deserved recognition.
20:25Our scientists have done things which nobody's ever done before.
20:28Yeah, yeah, but your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could
20:32that they didn't stop to think if they should.
20:35Dr. Grant, if there's one person here who could appreciate what I'm trying to do.
20:42Well, it's just changed so radically, and we're all running to catch up.
20:47What does running to catch up suggest about the situation?
20:51Physical exercise is needed.
20:53Changes are happening too fast.
20:55Competition is taking place.
21:04I don't want to jump to any conclusions, but look.
21:08Dinosaurs and man, two species separated by 65 million years of evolution,
21:13have just been suddenly thrown back into the mix together.
21:17How can we possibly have the slightest idea of what to expect?
