Actually, I saw an advert during my favourite TV programme, English Fun, the one we used to listen to on the radio.
144
I got tired of it.
145
It got so boring.
146
It's funny you should say that, but the online radio shows are nothing like that.
147
Their clever advice has really helped me.

We should tell Miss Jessica about it.
149
My cousin has a lesson with her today, so do you spend a lot of time on it?

151
Are there articles too?
152
Yes, on different levels, and some of them also have a video.
153
If you're not sure about your English level, you can ask an online teacher.
154
The only way I'd read an article is if I were to watch something about it, so I'm going to contact a teacher on the website and get started.
155

169
16 You will hear two friends talking.
170
Where are they?
171
We were so lucky we got these last-minute tickets.
172
Yeah, but a flight home would be much faster and more comfortable than a train ride.
173
We should have booked earlier.
174
It was too expensive.
175
It could be worse.
176
Last time we had to catch a bus home.
177

Her son told her that he was interested in becoming a football player when he finishes school.
190
He's really good at football and his coach tells him he could play for an important team one day.

218
But I'm really worried about your schoolwork.
219
Your teacher has called us and she wanted us to tell her why you're always so tired.
220
I explained, but she said she wasn't sure you should keep doing this.
221
And I think I agree with her.
222

¿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.
