Good morning, everyone.
121
My name's Michaela, and I'm going to give you some information about our trip today.
122
It takes two hours to get to London,

We have to leave at that time as the traffic gets very bad after five o 'clock.
125
I know some of you want to go shopping, and the new

Kings and Queens Shopping Centre on Bristol Street is now open.

You can get a 15 % discount in the shops there.
128
I know it's not as good as the 20 % we got last year, but I think you'll agree it's better than nothing.
129
The staff there just need to see your coach ticket, and they'll give you your discount.
130
Please be careful with your wallets and purses.
131
The streets and shops are crowded on Saturdays and that's a chance for pickpockets to steal things.

If you have any problems,

my mobile number is 077 -5819 -236.

173
What about your meal?
174
The food was delicious, especially the dessert.
175
Everything was perfect until the bill arrived.
176
Was it expensive?
177
Well, it was quite expensive, but we knew that from before.
178
The problem was they gave us the bill for a different table.
179
It took half an hour for them to fix the problem.
180
In the end, they gave us a discount because of all the problems with the bill.
181

So, are you playing football this afternoon?
214
I can't.
215
Don't tell me.
216
It's your foot again, isn't it?
217
It's true, I had problems with my foot, but it's fine now.
218
And my boss said I could leave work early to play.
219
The trouble is I've got really bad toothache, so I'm going to see the dentist about that.

Those big teeth.
234
I wouldn't like to be near it if it was hungry.
235
That golden fur with the black stripes is fantastic.
236
It must be really difficult to see it in the forest.
237
And those yellow eyes.
238
Just beautiful.

Now listen again.

293
The hard work is washing and cutting the vegetables.
294
Cooking them is easy.
295
But I'm good at cooking.
296
Well, I'm not cutting them this time.
297
OK, I'll do that.
298
You do the rest.

¿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.
