Listen to learn. ✔Lesson transcript: https://adeptenglish.com/lessons/english-listening-practice-lorry-shortage/ Today we practice listening to English language being spoken by a native British English speaker. This  listening practice conversation is about supply issues in the UK. The  subject of this podcast lesson is not that important. The English  language you will learn is. Supply problems in the UK may be  important on Sept 2021, right now, especially if you're being  inconvenienced. However, in a few months, or years, this problem will  have come and gone. The point is the topic is interesting, but the real  value of listening to this is the English listening practice that helps  build up the language learning parts of your brain. When  something goes wrong, it's easy to jump to conclusions. You're angry  and you usually want the problem to just go away as quickly as possible.  It's interesting to see the news headlines, which are all about  failure, panic, etc. All of which encourage people to engage (usually  with advertising) at a superficial and selfish level. A  good truck driver needs discipline. Traffic, weather, eating, sleeping,  showering, fueling, getting work done on the truck; it takes a truck  driver a long time to learn how to jungle everything. ⭐ Joanna Dunham, Actress Politicians use the situation to punish those in power, the people in charge. People who did not want Brexit use it to say,  “I told you so!”. Lorry drivers use the problems to highlight long-term  problems with their industry. The worriers use the problems to  highlight how fragile a world we live in. The climate change people  shout about how we need to consume less. It's exhausting to listen to. In  reality, it's never one simple, obvious reason for the issues we have  in UK lorry based supply delivery today. I can think of at least 6 or 7  contributing factors to the problems we have right now in the UK, and I  know very little about the industry. When you live in a global "just in  time…" delivery world, it's very easy for things to go wrong. One  trend I've noticed in the UK, and in the western world in general, we  are not used to hardships. We have a pretty peaceful life much of the  time. Things typically work and we've all become used to it, so when  something breaks, we typically overreact. Who knows, I might be wrong,  and in a year we still have issues in the UK, but regardless, I can  guarantee that listening to this English language learning podcast will see something positive come from it.Learn more about our courses here: https://adeptenglish.com/language-courses/
