Unit 1, recording 13.
2
1 And most of the people there seem very friendly, so...
3
Yeah, all that side of things is fine.
4
Good.
5
It's just that...
6
Well, I don't want to sound as if I'm moaning already or anything, but I've got a bit of a problem with my boss somehow.
7
It's a bit hard to explain.
8
When you first meet her, she seems perfectly nice.
9
You know, good fun and young and everything. But I don't know.
10
She's got this way of kind of ignoring whatever I say.
11
She doesn't actually criticise me, not openly.
12
But she just doesn't seem to take any of my suggestions very seriously.
13
Oh, how annoying.
14
Yeah, well, I'm supposed to be her assistant manager.
15
Not some junior who doesn't know anything about the job.
16
That sounds awful.
17
Have you tried talking to anyone else about it?
18
Or to her, even?
19
Well, I don't know.
20
I don't feel as if I'm really well enough established there yet.
21
Two.
22
Well, if we hurry, we might just get there.
23
Oh, no. What's the matter?
24
Look!
25
Look at the traffic!
26
It's just solid!
27
Oh, I don't believe it.
28
I mean, how is anyone supposed to get around?
29
Okay, okay, calm down, calm down!
30
Will you stop telling me to calm down?
31
It is so annoying!
32
Oh, come on, will you?
33
Look, there's no point in getting upset about it.
34
It's rush hour.
35
There's bound to be a lot of traffic.
36
Yes, and when we turn up an hour late, I can imagine they're going to be really happy about it.
37
Okay, come on.
38
We're not going to be an hour late.
39
I tell you what.
40
I'll give them a call and tell them we're stuck in traffic.
41
Okay?
42
Yeah, okay.
43
I mean, there's not much else we can do, is there, short of buying a private helicopter?
44
I mean, the traffic in this town is just absolutely ridiculous.
45
Hello?
46
Simon, it's Linda here.
47
Oh, hi.
48
How's it going?
49
There's a bit of a crisis, actually.
50
That's why I'm ringing.
51
I don't know what to do.
52
Oh, dear.
53
You haven't locked yourself out again, have you?
54
No, no. It's.. it's Tony.
55
Oh, Tony?
56
He should have been back hours ago.
57
I mean, he's always here when I get in from work, always.
58
And he's just not here.
59
He's disappeared.
60
Oh, well, never mind.
61
I'm sure he'll come back.
62
He always does, doesn't he?
63
Yeah, but you never know what might have happened.
64
I mean, he's not used to being out on his own.
65
Hmm.
66
Have you looked under the bed?
67
That's where he was last time.
68
Of course I have.
69
No, he's not in the flat.
70
He's gone.
71
I just don't know where.
72
Look, Linda, try not to worry about it.
73
He's probably out with one of his girlfriends or something.
74
Have you called him?
75
He could be in the garden.
76
Yeah, I've looked everywhere.
77
He's not in any of his usual places.

Sobre esta lección

¿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.
