Outdoor shoes.
56
Is there something specific about this brand that stands out?
57
I just think a lot of people who are into fashion started wearing them as their daily shoe and it got popular.
58
And now they blew up.

This beige shoe is interesting.
60
I think this color in general has become really trendy.

100
In cycling outfits, they usually have reflective details so that when a headlight shines on the biker,
101
they can easily be spotted.
102
I think this is an example of a reflector.
103
If you shine a light on this, it will look really bright.
104
So it is there as a precaution for drivers.
105
But it's also a cool detail on the back of this vest
106

107
or renovated this area so it's really new

140
when our train boards and also to see what the track number is.
141
We finally made it to Baltimore.
142
There was a delay in our train and it kept getting delayed and then the timetable stopped showing our train.

144
So we got on the next train which was about two hours later and finally we made it to Baltimore.

Pronunciación a tener en cuenta
El hablante usa 16 contracciones y formas reducidas, como we're, I'm, don't. Dilas en su forma corta, tal como las oyes.
- Los sonidos de “sh” y “zh”: shoe /ˈʃu/, shine /ʃaɪn/, inspiration /ˌɪn.spɪˈɹeɪ.ʃən/, destination /dɛstɪˈneɪʃən/, illusion /ɪˈl(j)uːʒ(ə)n/

- Grábate y compara con el original, prestando atención a palabras como shoe, delay, outdoor.
¿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.
