Could do with a pair like that myself.
what is mean?
could do means he wants this pair of shoes for himself as well
team
Hello awesh,
In this example, the man is talking about the woman's shoes. We use a pair of to mean two of something.
He says I could do with to mean he needs or wants something.
So, I could do with a pair like that myself means he needs or wants some shoes similar to the woman's.

I go shopping whenever I'm sad or have troubles because it help me to relax and forget all damn things for a while. Buy things on Internet is comfortable but be careful with cheating.
The guy said, That’s exactly what I was going to say
Is it also correct to say? That’s exactly what I am going to say. I don't know the difference.

Hi amber 0204!
Sorry, but it's not correct to say "That's exactly what I am going to say." This is because 'was going' is for the past - he was thinking about saying it, but he's not going to say it now, because the woman already guessed his question. 'I am going to say...' would mean he still wants to say it.
Hope that helps!

Hello dark knight,
If this is too difficult, why don't you try something a little easier? Our Elementary Podcasts are great for building English listening confidence.

Hello Jack,
Sorry you can't see the video. Unfortunately it's the same for all our users in China (and Iran). As you know, many websites are not available in China (Facebook, YouTube, Google Documents) and our video host is one of them. We are trying to find a solution to this.
Best wishes,
