So, is your mum home?
2
No, she's not.
3
She's...
4
Oliver, where's mum?
5
I've forgotten. In Dubai.
6
She's been writing about the architecture there.
7
Oh, yeah.
8
She's been travelling so much recently, I never remember where she is.
9
Why?
10
What were you going to ask her?
11
Oh, nothing much.
12
My Chinese teacher has given me some homework to interview an interesting person and translate it into Chinese for Monday.
13
And your mum's been writing her blog for years now, hasn't she?
14
She's already visited lots of places.
15
And hasn't she won some awards?
16
She's only won one.
17
But yeah, she won a big award earlier this year.
18
Anyway, Oliver's just made some cake.
19
Do you want some?
20
Mum will probably call soon.
21
And if she doesn't, you can interview Oliver.
22
Oliver?
23
Your brother, Oliver?
24
Yeah, why not?
25
He's going to be a master chef, you know.
26
He's been learning to make amazing food, and he's been practising his baking too.
27
And he's travelled loads.
28
OK, you've convinced me.
29
Hi, how's Dubai?
30
Fine, it's good.
31
There's a constant mist of desert sand, but it's an interesting place, particularly considering the city has only really been here a couple of decades.
32
It was a port for a long time before, but the modern city of Dubai is new.
33
What have you seen so far?
34
Well, I've been in the Burj Khalifa, the tallest building, the one in that film with Tom Cruise.
35
It's incredible!
36
And I've eaten at the Burj Al Arab too.
37
That's the hotel that looks like a yacht sale.
38
It is so luxurious.
39
I haven't been to the Palm Tree Island yet, that's tomorrow.
40
Have you bought any souvenirs?
41
A Ferrari?
42
No, I haven't had time yet, but I'll bring you something, even if it's only sand.

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.
