Creando lección...
1
Shut up.
2
Yes.
3
The weird thing about hanging out with Regina was that I could hate her,
4
and at the same time,
5
I still wanted her to like me.
6
OK.
7
You have really good eyebrows.
8
Thanks.
9
Move.
10
Same with Gretchen.
11
The meaner Regina was to her,
12
the more Gretchen tried to win Regina back.
13
She knew it was better to be in the plastics,
14
hating life, than to not be in it all.
15
Because being with the plastics was like being famous.
16
People looked at you all the time,
17
and everybody just knew stuff about you.
18
That new girl moved here from Africa.
19
I saw Katie Heron wearing army pants and flip flops,
20
so I bought army pants and flip flops.
21
That Katie girl is hot.
22
She might even be hotter than Regina George.
23
I hear Regina George is dating Aaron Samuels again.
24
The two were seen canoodling at Chris Iso's Halloween party,
25
and they've been inseparable ever since.
26
I was a woman possessed.
27
I spent about 80% of my time talking about Regina,
28
and the other 20% of the time,
29
I was praying for someone else to bring her up so I could talk about her more.
30
She's not even that good-looking if you really look at her.
31
I don't know.
32
Now that she's getting fatter,
33
she's got pretty big jugs.
34
I could hear people getting bored with me, but I couldn't stop.
35
It just kept coming up like word vomit.
36
I have this theory that if you cut all her hair off,
37
she'd look like a British man.
38
Yeah, I know you told me that one before.
39
Okay.
40
Hey, I'm having an art show,
41
so why don't you take a night off from your double life?
42
I want you to see it.
43
Goulness.
44
What is that smell?
45
Oh, Regina gave me some perfume.
46
You smell like a baby prostitute.
47
Thanks.
48
Meanwhile, I was finding any excuse I could to talk to Aaron.
49
I don't get this.
50
Do you get any of this?
51
Nice job, Katie.
52
Kinda seems like you get it.
53
If I was gonna keep this going,
54
I was gonna have to really commit.
55
Not your best.
56
Damn, Africa, what happened?
57
How'd you do?
58
Not so good.
59
You know, I think I need a tutor.
60
I'll tutor you if you ever want to get together after school or something.
61
Do you think Regina would mind?
62
No. You guys are friends.
63
Well, maybe we just won't tell her.
64
So, what did you get for this one?
65
Well, the first time I did it, I got a zero.
66
Wrong.
67
But then when I checked it, I got one.
68
There you go.
69
I got one, too.
70
Yeah, you have to, um,
71
you have to check it,
72
because sometimes the product of two negative integers is a positive number.
73
Yeah, like negative four and negative six.
74
That's right.
75
That's good.
76
Well, you're a good tutor.
77
Man, um, look, I...
78
I can't do this.
79
It's not fair to Regina.
80
Why do you like her?
81
Look, I know she can be really mean sometimes, but...
82
Then why do you like her?
83
Why do you?
84
But...
85
Look, there's good and bad to everybody, right?
86
Regina's just.. she's just more upfront about it.
87
Oh, no. It was coming up.
88
The word vomit.
89
I didn't mean to say it, but...
90
She's cheating on you.
91
What?
92
Did he say why?
93
Somebody told him about Shane Omen.
94
Who?
95
He said some guy on the baseball team.
96
Baseball team?
97
I gave him everything.
98
I was half a virgin when I met him.
99
You want to do something fun?
100
You want to go to Taco Bell?
101
I can't go to Taco Bell.
102
I'm on an all carb diet.
103
God, Karen, you are so stupid.
104
Regina, wait!
105
Talk to me!
106
Nobody understands me!
107
You're not stupid, Karen.
108
No, I am actually.
109
I'm failing almost everything.
110
Well, there must be something you're good at.
111
I can put my whole fist in my mouth.
112
Wanna see?
113
No. That's okay.
114
Anything else?
115
I'm kind of psychic.
116
I have a fifth sense.
117
What do you mean?
118
It's like I have ESPN or something.
119
My breasts can always tell when it's gonna rain.
120
Really?
121
That's amazing.
122
Well, they can tell when it's raining.

¿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.
