Creando lección...
1
I trained until my legs gave out.
2
I used every connection my father had.
3
I did everything right.
4
And I still could not call this mine.
5
The town skating competition is next week, Sophia.
6
I saw the student list.
7
Mark's daughter is also competing.
8
Ah, Lily.
9
We cannot let that family look better than us, sweetie.
10
Our family image is very important.
11
Yes, mother.
12
A harper does not share the spotlight, Sophia.
13
We dominate.
14
You must take the gold trophy.
15
Remember, second place means nothing in this house.
16
Do you understand?
17
Yes, daddy.
18
I will win.
19
Sophia, I saved you the best seat in class today Right next to the window Good
20
And your bag is totally safe with me, Sophia It is very clean
21
And I brought you apple juice Your absolute favorite We want you to have energy for the skating competition Of course
22
Put the bag down, Pip.
23
I can carry it myself.
24
Oh, no. It's okay.
25
I like carrying it.
26
It's not heavy.
27
Put it down.
28
And Nora, put the juice away.
29
I am not thirsty.
30
But we are your friends, Sophia.
31
We just want to help you win.
32
Ridiculous. Who is your friend?
33
You only want my money and my toys.
34
Wow!
35
Look at Lily go!
36
She is like a bird!
37
She is so fast!
38
Nobody can beat her next week!
39
Lily!
40
That was the most beautiful double axel I have ever seen!
41
You are like a little star on the ice!
42
Thank you!
43
Wow, Lily!
44
You are a genius!
45
You are the best skater in our class!
46
You look like a real bird flying, Lily.
47
If you skate like this next week, the gold trophy will be yours for sure.
48
Everyone thinks Lily is the queen now.
49
Are you going to stand there and watch her take your trophy?
50
No, I am the best.
51
I will show them.
52
Okay, Sophia!
53
It is your turn!
54
Show us your double axel!
55
Two and a half turns.
56
Easy.
57
I must be perfect.
58
I must be number one!
59
Sophia!
60
Remember, second place means nothing in this house.
61
No, no, I cannot lose.
62
Sophia, are you okay?
63
That was a very hard fall.
64
Here, take my hand.
65
Let me help you.
66
Don't touch me!
67
I don't need your help!
68
Get away from me, Lily!
69
Sophia, why do you hate me so much?
70
What did I do wrong?
71
Please tell me.
72
What did you do wrong?
73
You really don't know, Lily?
74
Stop acting!
75
I...
76
I don't know.
77
Don't touch me.
78
You are a hypocrite.
79
I hate your smile, I hate your help, and I hate you!
80
Oh, Sophia, don't be sad.
81
Your jump was actually amazing!
82
The ice today was just too slippery.
83
It wasn't your fault at all.
84
Shut up, Nora.
85
Lily did it perfectly.
86
The ice wasn't slippery for her.
87
Lily?
88
Pfft, that was just pure luck.
89
She practiced all day yesterday because she has nothing else to do.
90
But you, Sophia, you are a true professional.
91
Everyone knows you are the real star here, but she will win the trophy next week if this continues.
92
Not if she can't practice anymore.
93
Sophia, what if the rink is suddenly busy or closed?
94
You are a harper, remember?
95
You can do anything.
96
Go outside.
97
Lock the door.
98
I need to make a call to the principal.
99
Yes, Sophia.
100
Right away.
101
Hello, Sophia.
102
Is everything all right with your practice?
103
Hello, Mr. Davis.
104
I need a favor.
105
I want the school rink to be closed for the rest of the week.
106
No one else can practice here.
107
Only me.
108
But Sophia, the competition is next week.
109
Lily and the other students need to practice too.
110
My father will double the donation for the new sports center this evening.
111
But only if the rink is empty for me.
112
I understand, Sophia.
113
The rink will be closed for maintenance starting tomorrow morning.
114
Happy training!
115
Now, let's see how you win, Lily.
116
I am so sorry, everyone.
117
The school just called me.
118
The cooling system is broken.
119
The rink must close for maintenance.
120
But Miss Clara, the competition is in three days.
121
We need to practice.
122
This is bad.
123
Very bad.
124
My program is not ready yet.
125
No practice.
126
But what about my double axle?
127
I will forget how to jump.
128
I know, Lily.
129
I know you work very hard.
130
But the ice is not safe right now.
131
Safety comes first.
132
Okay, children.
133
Go home and rest today.
134
I will text your parents when the rink reopens.
135
Safety first!
136
it's true I cannot do it no matter how much I try I cannot beat her jump
137
if I jump this in the competition I will fall I
138
will lose everything no I must survive I will change my
139
program I will do the double loop it is easy it is safe No mistakes.
140
Coward, you are a loser.
141
A useless harper.
142
Nora, please don't say that.
143
Sophia is just tired.
144
Her knees are bleeding.
145
Tired?
146
Next week is the competition.
147
If Sophia doesn't do the double axel, Lily will win the gold trophy.
148
Lily will be number one.
149
But if Lily is better, she deserves to win.
150
Wake up, Pip.
151
If Lily wins, she will be Miss Clara's favorite.
152
If Sophia loses, her dad will stop paying for our luxury skate camp.
153
I didn't spend the whole year flattering that rich, spoiled girl just to end up in second place.
154
Sophia can't do it, so we must make sure Lily cannot do it either.
155
Nora, what are you going to do?
156
Not me, Pip.
157
You are going to do it.
158
Tomorrow morning, before the school bus arrives, you will find Lily's locker.
159
What have I done?
160
It was Nora's idea.
161
Oh no, someone is coming.
162
I have to hide.
163
Welcome to the Regional Junior Figure Skating Championship.
164
Up next, the Free Skating Program.
165
My turn.
166
Everyone is looking at me.
167
Dad is looking at me.
168
Should I do the double axel?
169
No. If I fall, Dad will be furious.
170
I will lose everything.
171
Double loop is safer.
172
Representing the Harper Elite Skating Club, please welcome Sophia Harper!
173
Thank you.
174
Music, please!
175
50 -20.
176
A pathetic score for a coward.
177
Trading a double axel for a safe double loop?
178
Do you honestly think a runaway performance is enough to protect the Harper name, Sophia?
179
If that lily girl lands her program, you will learn the true price of your cowardice.
180
Sophia, you did it.
181
That was incredibly clean.
182
I was watching from the screen, and your transitions were just beautiful.
183
I'm so happy for you.
184
Of course it was clean, Lily.
185
That is what a Harper does.
186
We don't leave room for mistakes.
187
Now it's your turn.
188
Just focus on your own run and don't trip out there.
189
The ice is getting slippery.
190
Up next, please welcome Lily.
191
Go take that first place, my little hypocrite.
192
You deserve it.
193
Ah!
194
What?
195
What was that sound?
196
Oh my god!
197
That was a terrible fall!
198
Her double axel failed completely.
199
She lost her edge and fell hard on the ice.
200
Sophia.
201
Did you see that fall?
202
It looks so painful.
203
Our girl is too small for this.
204
Calm down, Mark.
205
Take a deep breath.
206
Look, she is smiling.
207
She finished the dance she is very strong.
208
You are right, Sarah.
209
Our girl is amazing.
210
What is happening out there?
211
Is Lily really okay?
212
Please, let her be okay.
213
Attention, please.
214
The final scores are ready.
215
The gold medal goes to Sophia Harper.
216
What?
217
First place?
218
No, this is impossible.
219
This is not right.
220
Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome our champions, first place, Sophia Hartford, second place, Lily, and third place, Mia!
221
I know it was you, Sophia.
222
Lily, what are you talking about?
223
The screws on my skates, they were loosened.
224
No, Lily, I didn't, I swear, I...
225
Don't lie to me anymore.
226
Right before I went out you told me don't trip.
227
You knew it all along.
228
Please listen to me.
229
I won't tell the judges and I won't tell my parents.
230
Consider this my final gift.
231
To our dead friendship.
232
Enjoy your gold medal, Sophia.
233
You bought it with your soul.
234
No, Pip Why?
235
Why would you do this?
236
Pip, tell me the truth Why did you do this to Lily?
237
Sophia, please Nora told me to do it She planned everything Sophia, this is a competition In this world,
238
if you don't crush them They will crush you I did this for our team.
239
No, you did it for yourself.
240
But it's over now.
241
The evidence is all here, Nora.
242
I will give this USB to the judges.
243
Everyone will know the truth.
244
Give it to them.
245
No one will believe you, Sophia.
246
I will tell everyone that you told us to do it.
247
Think about it.
248
Who gets the gold medal?
249
Who wins the first place? you are the only one who benefits here.
250
Good job, Sophia.
251
You won the first place.
252
You made the Harper family proud.
253
And Nora, very smart thinking.
254
You are right.
255
Father?
256
You know about this?
257
Sophia, give me that USB.
258
Now.
259
No!
260
Father!
261
Why did you do that?
262
To protect our family name, don't disappoint me, Sophia.
263
Remember who you are.
264
Here are your rewards.
265
You both did a great job for the team.
266

¿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.
