Shadowing Practice: Hitman 2 All Mission Briefings - Learn English Speaking with Video

Good afternoon 47.

Your destination is the annual Global Innovation Motor Race in Miami, Florida.

After analyzing the data from Raynard's computer, the case is clear.

The Providence defectors are Robert and Sierra Knox, head of robotics developer Cronstadt Industries.

A visionary inventor and technological innovator, Robert Knox has spearheaded Cronstadt Industries to the bleeding edge of

technological development his equally brilliant daughter sierra is not only a financial wizard

but also a fiercely competitive race car driver with a fiery temper to match

kronstadt enjoys enormous popularity with global consumers however few are aware

that the company is also one of the world's leading suppliers of next -gen military tech Last year,

despotic ruler Jin Po employed prototype Kronstadt drones against peaceful civilian protesters in the now infamous Tanyan Valley Incident.

And although it has yet to be proven, there is little doubt that the Noxes personally brokered the deal, making them complicit in a war crime.

It is unclear why the Noxes would betray their masters, but likely, the fear of being next on the Shadow Clients' hit list has pressured them to cut a deal with the enemy.

Undoubtedly, with Kronstadt Industries on their side, the militia will increase their attacks tenfold,

and so our contract obligates us to retire Robert and Sierra Knox and contain the damage they may inflict on Providence.

I will leave you to prepare.

Good morning, 47.

Our Providence contact has shared the identity of the Shadow Client, a former mercenary and bodyguard by the name of Lucas Gray.

His past is a black void, but our analysts are digging deep.

Meanwhile, we've had a breakthrough of our own.

Comparing the militia's attack patterns with global shipping and transportation routes, We've figured out how Mr. Gray and his paramilitaries move around the world undetected.

They're using the distribution network of the Delgado Cartel, Colombia's biggest drug manufacturer.

Clearly, Gray must have struck a deal with the Delgados.

Consequently, if we can cripple the cartel, we can severely limit the militia strike range.

But to do so, we need to slay a three -headed serpent.

Sociopathic cartel head Rico Delgado and his two closest lieutenants, PR guru Andrea Martínez and servant chemist Jorge Franco.

With equal parts guts and guile, Rico Delgado runs a thriving billion -dollar criminal empire.

The word is, the brutal and volatile cartel head is hell -bent on becoming the number one drug lord in the world.

To achieve this, Martinez, a childhood friend of Delgado's, has been buttering up state leaders and decision -makers,

paving the way for an expansion of the Delgado Logistics Network,

while the brilliant but aloof and anti -social Franco has been hard at work developing a new type of super -cocaine.

So, three of Colombia's most infamous crime lords inhabiting a decidedly hostile environment.

I will leave you to prepare.

Good evening, 47.

The Militia has released a hostage tape, outing the existence of Providence to the world.

This was a fatal mistake, and our analysts are tracing its origin as we speak.

In the meantime, we have a lead on Lucas Grey's top lieutenant.

Turns out the Delgado Cartel's counterfeiting unit was creating fake IDs for the Militia.

And one operative in particular stands out, Wazir Kale, an infamous South China Sea Pirate better known by his nom de guerre, the Maelstrom.

The Maelstrom and his cutthroat band of outlaws were the scourge of the shipping industry in the post -recession years.

But his reign of terror came to an end with the disastrous 2014 hijacking of the supertanker, Francis King.

Chinese elite forces stormed the ship, resulting in the deaths of a dozen sailors and most of the Maelstrom's crew.

But Kale slipped away unseen.

The Maelstrom's connection to Grey is unknown, But we believe it was he who carried out the audacious killing of a Providence CEO in Shanghai,

along with two reactivated members of his old pirate gang.

Vanya Shah, a shady figure in Mumbai's criminal underworld, and Dawood Rangan, the gang's old cashier turned dodgy movie producer.

Shah, Rangan and the Maelstrom form Lucas Grey's eastern cell.

They are a crack strike team and stopping them as our client's most pressing concern.

Unfortunately, the elusive male.. appears to have vanished into the seedy underbelly of Mumbai, the cradle of his criminal legend,

and no one knows his whereabouts or what he currently looks like.

So, a bandit queen, a showbiz charlatan, and one certifiable ghost.

I shall leave you to prepare.

Gentlemen, let's go over the plan.

The first constant is none other than Janus, the legendary Cold War spymaster.

A KGB senior officer and head of the Sixth Column Special Branch at Lubyanka, Janus is a certified genius and expert of counterintelligence.

He retired from the KGB in 1988 when he fell out of favor with the Kremlin and defected to the US.

Shortly after, the Soviet Union collapsed.

Now, it is unclear when Janus stepped down as the constant, but since 2004 he has been a resident of a quiet community in suburban Vermont, Mr. Gray.

Right, so here's the catch.

As an elite KGB agent, Janus was trained to withstand interrogation and torture.

No amount of pressure will force him to disclose information he doesn't want to.

Instead, we will need to search his home for clues.

But if Providence learns of our presence, the game is up.

So we frame Janus, make Providence think he was the real Shattered Plant.

Correct.

I will file a false ICA report, claiming to have traced a number of calls from Janus' house to the Institute in Romania.

The case will seem clear.

Mr. Gray was only a figurehead.

Janus was pulling the strings all along.

And by eliminating him, we will have neutralized the militia once and for all.

However, for this subterfuge to work, you'll also need to deal with Janus' security detail.

A Providence Herald and former Secret Service agent by the name of Nolan Cassidy.

Intel describes him as diligent and inquisitive, and we cannot risk that he contradicts our story to his employer.

Seems workable.

I certainly hope so.

Everything depends on this next move, 47.

You made this our fight.

Now let's even the playing field.

Attention, gentlemen.

Our source on the island just made a critical discovery.

The Constant has a poison chip embedded in his neck.

A failsafe, in case he's compromised.

Damn it.

We should have expected something like this.

So, we subdue the Constant before he has time to react.

Not that simple.

The device is remote -triggered, and during his stay on the island, two kill -switches have been entrusted to twin sisters Zoe and Sophia Washington.

Two young, ambitious Providence operatives and newly appointed chairwomen of the Ark Society.

Apparently, even the Constant is unaware of this arrangement.

Right.

Change of plans.

We divide and conquer.

47 takes out the Washingtons while I figure out a way to get the Constant off the island.

It'll be tight, but once we're back at the ship, we should be able to surgically remove the ship before the partners have time to react.

47. Tell me about the targets.

I know them from the archive.

Zoe

and Sophia's father is president of a powerful conservative think tank

one of Providence's prime assets the apples don't fall far from

the tree no saints either according to ICA files the twins

106

thieves known as the yardbirds the yardbirds were famous for the daring heists, in particular one that took place against Shamal Casino in Las Vegas.

107

However, the money proved to be the property of organized criminals who in turn launched a campaign of violence

108

and retaliation in an effort to identify the thieves and find the money.

109

Feeling the earth burn beneath them, the Yardbirds entered into a secret agreement.

110

The treasure would remain hidden and once the dust settled, the last remaining member was to inherit everything.

111

The group retired and all members vanished from sight until Calvin Ritter, the sparrow, was found dead on his yacht.

112

But the remaining members remained elusive.

113

The group never gathers in one place but today is a special occasion.

114

The wedding of Elizabeth Lang is taking place at the palatial home of Guillaume Maison with Doris Lee as a special guest.

115

Our client is Alexander Kovac, the founder of the Yardbirds.

116

He has stipulated that all three targets and their bodyguards must be eliminated at this event.

117

Should any of the Yardbirds escape, the contract is invalidated.

118

Looks like Kovac is making his final bid for a loss of millions.

119

Good luck.

Thank you.

¿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.
