I'll just be in my room.. going nowhere.
14
Why is it her room all of a sudden?
15
I know, you sunk my cattle ship.
16
Sorry me.
17
I've just been thinking about why the professor won't let me fight.
18
What?
19
I don't understand.
20
Talk in your normal voice.
21
I said, I don't know why he won't let you fight.
22
I've seen your powers for a long time.
23
That's right!
24
Maybe you could talk to the Professor and convince him that I can fight. But I'm shy.
25
And I don't like him.
26
Blizz, you can't do this.
27
Blizz, you can't do that.
28
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

He wants you to listen to him.
32

Well, somebody is getting a gold star.
42
And of course, it's me. For leadership.
43
High five, girls!

45
Sorry you couldn't come bliss we really missed you out there.
46
We got you a pickle from the mayor's office Isn't that right buttercup?
47
Uh.. yeah!
48
Never mind about the professor, he's just being a worrywart.
49
Whenever he gets this stuff in his head, it usually wears off by dinner time you - Thank you.
50
Welp, I was wrong.
51
- - Blistina, no powers at the table, please.
52
- - Uh, hey, maybe Bliss could come to school with us on Monday.
53
I think it would be best if Bliss studied from home, until we're sure her powers are under control.
54
She can learn from the talent spell.
55
Bar -rooster says.
56
Hmph.
57
No superpowers.
58
No school.
59
You won't let me do anything.
60
Young lady, that is enough!
61
Ah!
62
I get her dessert!
63
The Professor will never understand me!
64
Huh?
65
You're right.
66
This is what I'm talking about.
67
He'll never understand how powerful you can be.
68
- Got those!
69
- Whiff!
70
Are you okay?
71
Who are you talking to?
72
Myself.
73
It's just teen stuff.
74
Yeah, I get it.
75
I was a teen once.
76
I wish we could convince the professor that you're ready to fight crime with us.
77
Wait!
78
I have an idea!
79
Do we know any wizards?
80
No bubbles.
81
Oh, then I don't have an idea.
82
What's that, Mr. Mayor?
83
Chitmunk Commando's back!
84
Girls, we have to stop him!
85
Chitmunk Commando?
86
That guy is nuts!
87
Bubs, you get that one?
88
"Yeah !" "N -n -no..." "Well, have fun saving the world." You know,
89
Bliss, if the professor saw you in action, he'd totally let you be part of the team.
90
Buttercup, the professor said Bliss is not ready.
91
Then again, you have been amazing in training.
92
Maybe you just need to show the professor what you can do.
93
Really?
94
You think so?
95
Yeah!

¿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.
