Hey! Is your English intermediate, advanced?  Let's find out today with a fun test with

the RealLife English podcast. So grab a  notebook or piece of paper let's get started.

So in this episode Cassé and Izzy are discussing  how to implement good habits in your life.

For this first part you will listen to three  extracts. And you need to choose the best option:  
3
20640
5760
00:26
a, b or c to answer the questions. Are you ready?

Izzy says there's too much going on  these days that end up distracting us  
5
110560
4960
01:55
from things that we really want  to do. A synonym for distract  
6
115520
4240
01:59
is divert. If something diverts  your attention, it distracts you.
7
119760

02:04
So Cassé says "they don't even know why  they started the habit in the first place,  
8
124160
96960
03:41
they don't know what their goal  actually is. Or maybe they've  
9
221680
3680
03:45
forgotten." Cassé is using the example of  going to the gym to illustrate that point.
10
225360
4320
04:55
Izzy says "the very first thing you  do if you want to work out every day  
11
295120
4240
04:59
would be just putting on your shoes every day,  even if you don't work out. It seems crazy,  
12
299360
5920
05:05
like a crazy idea, but that's  the idea of the micro habits."
13
305280
4560
05:10
So how is that first part? Let's do a different  type of exercise now. But before we continue, if  
14
310640
5840

05:37
So in this part you have to complete the sentences  
18
337680
3280
05:40
with the missing information that you  hear on the recording. You can use one,  
19
340960
5360
05:46
two or even three words in your answers. Make  sure that you write exactly what you hear.
20
346320
4240
06:45
The word Satisfying is the adjective form of the  noun Satisfaction. If something is satisfying,  
21
405600
6480
06:52
it makes you feel happy and content. Resistance is  the noun form of the verb To Resist. If there is  
22
412080
6960
06:59
resistance to doing something, it's not so easy  to do it. Finally, Applicable is the adjective  
23
419040
7360
07:06
form of the verb To Apply. If something applies  to a situation, it is relevant to that situation.
