Hey, what are you doing?

What's wrong with you?

And what's going on with Max?

I...

Am I the right person?

Hi Pamela.

Hey Izzy, I thought I heard you.

Aren't you working today?

No. Ben and I had a big argument last night.

I'm sorry to hear that.

Have you been out today?

No. Come on.
81
Let's go for a walk.
82
It was so embarrassing.
83
And our relationship has been difficult recently.
84
I just don't understand him anymore.
85
Well.
86
Sometimes people are difficult to understand.
87
What's his problem?
88
I have this great job.
89
I have this great opportunity.
90
And he's just started his career.
91
Yeah.
92
I think you're right.
93
I know what I want.
94
I know who I am.
95
Ben doesn't.
96
He wants everything to stay the same.
97
It can't all stay the same.
98
Life isn't like that. So?
99
Why don't you tell that to him?
100
I thought you'd be here.
101
Well, here I am.
102
I'm sorry.
103
I was an idiot.
104
You were.
105
I don't know why I didn't tell you about Max earlier.
106
I didn't tell you how I was feeling.
107
I'm not interested in Max.
108
I never was.
109
He's just my boss.
110
I know.
111
I know now.
112
Look, it's my fault too.
113
I've been so busy with my new job.
114
I didn't have enough time to think about us.
115
I'm sorry.
116
Sure.

I get it.

You've been busy and you're doing really well.

I'm proud of you.
120
Thanks.
121
I'm sorry if you feel like I've left you behind.
122
You're so talented.
123
One day you're going to be a great photographer.
124
Thanks.
125
You know...
126
When we met, we were in the same place in life.
127
Now we're in very different places.
128
I think you're right.
129
This new job is really important to me.
130
It's what I've always wanted to do.
131
Yeah.
132
I found the right place for you.
133
But I don't think your job leaves enough time for us.
134
Yeah.
135
And you need somebody who wants the same things as you want right now.
136
I don't think I'm that person. So is this it?
137
The end?
138
I think so.
139
I think so too.
140
We were really good together.
141
We were.
142
You know that now my back's better I could beat

Posibilidad con “might / may” might/may + verbo — algo posible pero no seguromight be
Futuro con “will” will + verbo — una decisión, una promesa o una predicciónyou'll have · I'll get · I'll put

  2. Haz shadowing frase por frase a velocidad normal, repitiendo cada una hasta que tu ritmo coincida con el del hablante.
  3. Grábate y compara con el original, prestando atención a palabras como desk, talented, photographer.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
