28
I assume it is your company's advertising brochure?
29
Yes.
30
What exactly is the problem?
31
Well, it was printed the year before, so some of the information is already out of date.
32
There are also a couple of problems with the layout.
33
Firstly, the letters of the address on the front page are far too small.
34
It's hard to see when glancing at the cover.
35
How big do you need it to be?

Increase the letters by three font sizes.

Fully noted.
52
Is that all?
53
No, there is more.
54
Turn to page 5.

We feel that showing merely the picture of our exterior and interior decoration does not fully represent the appeal of our hotel.

On second thought, we've decided to use a picture with the view of the hotel.
57
Do you have the original copy of the picture?
58
Yes, it is also enclosed in the flash drive.

OK.

We'll re -edit the whole layout of the photos.

86
No problem.

89
I have to ask the manager about the Chinese version.
90
There's been a surging number of Chinese clients during recent years.
91
However, we don't need German or Japanese translations, as we currently don't have many customers from those two countries.

  3. Grábate y compara con el original, prestando atención a palabras como brochure, revise, reprint.

¿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.
