Track 2.

Conversation 1.
3
so we're having a dinner to celebrate.
4
Conversation 2 Good afternoon.
5
Can I help you?
6
Yes.
7
I'm looking for a gift from my sister.
8
She's going to be 18 next week, so I thought a piece of jewellery would be nice.
9
Good idea.
10
Do you have anything particular in mind?
11
A necklace, perhaps?
12
Perhaps.
13
She has so many necklaces.
14
I was thinking of a pair of earrings, possibly.
15
Does she have a favourite colour?
16
She likes blue.
17
Track three.
18
A. The third.
19
B. Ten dollars fifty.
20
C. The sixth.
21
D. Seventy.
22
E. Nineteen.
23
F. Sixty-two.
24
G. A hundred and ten pounds.
25
H. The twenty-seventh.
26
Track four.
27
I need a table for twelve.
28
It's my husband's 30th birthday, so we're having a dinner to celebrate.
29
So that's twelve people for the 16th.
30
No, no, it's the day after, the 17th.
31
Saturday the 17th at eight o'clock.
32
Ah, yes, of course.
33
A party of twelve for the Saturday.
34
Oh, I'm sorry, but I'm afraid our main restaurant is fully booked that evening.
35
But we do have a small room available for private hire.
36
It can seat up to 20 people, so there would be plenty of space for 12 of you.
37
That sounds perfect.
38
Track 5. That sounds perfect.
39
Excellent.
40
Now, we offer a set three-course menu for £23 per person,
41
and we can also supply you with a birthday cake at no extra charge.
42
How does that sound?
43
That sounds good.
44
So, how much would that cost in total?
45
Let me see.
46
For the food and the room, that will come to £318. Did you say £380?
47
No, £318.
48
OK.
49
I think I'd like to go ahead and make a booking.
50
OK.
51
I'll just take your details.
52
Track 6 Good afternoon.
53
Can I help you?
54
Yes.
55
I'm looking for a gift for my sister.
56
She's going to be 18 next week, so I thought a piece of jewellery would be nice.
57
Good idea.
58
Do you have anything particular in mind?
59
A necklace, perhaps?
60
Hmm, she has so many necklaces.
61
I was thinking of a pair of earrings, possibly.
62
Does she have a favorite color?
63
Hmm, she likes blue.
64
What about this pair?
65
They have some beautiful little blue stones.
66
Hmm, they're quite nice, I suppose.
67
They're silver, and they're handmade, so you won't find anything like them anywhere else.
68
Oh, really?
69
So how much are they? much are they?
70
Well, they were £30, but actually we've got a sale on at the moment, so they're a little cheaper, only £20.
71
So you can save £10.
72
Great, I'll take them.
73
And would you like me to gift wrap them for you?
74
How much do you charge for that?
75
For £4, we give you a pretty box and your own choice of wrapping paper.
76
Or for £5, you can have our luxury wrapping service, which includes a silver box and silver ribbon.
77
And if you would like a card to write your own personal message, that will be two pounds extra.
78
Well, it's a special birthday, so I'll take the luxury option.
79
But I already have a card, thank you.
80
That's fine.
81
I'll do that for you now.
82
And how would you like to pay, cash or card?
83
Track seven Oh, really?
84
So, how much are they?
85
Well, they were thirty pounds, but actually we've got a sale on at the moment, so they're a little cheaper,
86
only twenty pounds, so you can save ten pounds.
87
Track eight Hi there, Nam.
88
You aren't still working on your history assignment, are you?
89
Hi, Victor.
90
No, I'm taking a break.
91
I'm looking at some photos, actually.
92
A family celebration.
93
Do you want to see them?
94
So, who's the cute baby in this picture here?
95
She's my niece, my brother's daughter.
96
Her name's Tae Hee.
97
She's one year old in this picture.
98
It's a very important birthday in Korea.
99
We call it Doll or Doll Jan Chi.
100
It's a very special celebration.
101
In fact, I think it's probably more important than a wedding or a graduation.
102
And we invite all our family and friends and sometimes our neighbours.
103
Here's a picture of the restaurant where we celebrated Tehi's big day.
104
What a lovely place and a beautiful garden too.
105
Yes, it's a perfect location for taking photographs.
106
Can you see me just there next to the trees?
107
Ah, yes.
108
I like your hat.
109
And I like the red and silver hat Taehee's wearing too.
110
It's really pretty.
111
Yes, it's a traditional hat for a girl.
112
Baby boys wear a different one.
113
All black.
114
It looks very serious.
115
That's a bit boring.
116
Black and silver would be more interesting.
117
What's Tehi wearing round her skirt?
118
Oh, that's a little purse.
119
Boy babies wear this too.
120
It's made of silk and it means good luck in our culture.
121
And she's wearing a belt too.
122
Look, do you see?
123
The belt means she will have a long life.
124
And what's this on the table there?
125
It's very colourful.
126
It's rice cakes.
127
I've never seen anything like that before.
128
It looks like a rainbow.
129
We always eat rice cakes at a baby's party.
130
There are usually twelve different types of them on the table.
131
Look, this rice cake is completely orange in colour and this one here is bright green.
132
It looks like a vegetable.
133
Now, look, this is me with my brother's wife, Micha.
134
We get on really well together.
135
What are you holding?
136
Oh, it's a little bag.
137
All the guests get a gift bag at the end of the party.
138
And inside, there's a present from the baby's parents.
139
It's really fun to open it because you don't know what you'll get.
140
So it could be a candle or some chocolates.
141
Guess what I got.
142
You can see it in this next photo.
143
Um, it looks like a box of tea.
144
But shouldn't it be the other way round?
145
The baby gets the presents.
146
Well, the baby receives money from the guests.
147
So in a way, you're right.
148
And actually, I've got my present right here.
149
So why don't we open the box right now and have a cup of tea?
150
Then we can try to finish our assignments.
151
Sounds good to me.

¿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.
