Shadowing Practice: Ratatouille (2007) opening scene (part 1) - Learn English Speaking with Video

Creando lección...
1
The best food in the world is made in France.
2
The best food in France is made in Paris.
3
And the best food in Paris, some say, is made by Chef Auguste Gusteau.
4
Gusteau's restaurant is the toast of Paris, booked five months in advance.
5
And his dazzling ascent to the top of fine French cuisine has made his competitors envious.
6
He is the youngest chef ever to achieve a five-star rating.
7
Chef Gusteau's cookbook, Anyone Can Cook, climbs to the top of the bestseller list.
8
But not everyone celebrates its success.
9
Amusing title, Anyone Can Cook.
10
What's even more amusing is that Gusteau actually seems to believe it.
11
I, on the other hand, take cooking seriously.
12
And no, I don't think anyone can do it.
13
This is me.
14
I think it's apparent I need to rethink my life a little bit.
15
What's my problem?
16
First of all, I'm a rat.
17
Which means life is hard.
18
And second, I have a highly developed sense of taste and smell.
19
Flour, eggs, sugar, vanilla bean, oh, small twist of lemon.
20
Oh, you can smell all that?
21
You have a gift.
22
This is Emil, my brother.
23
He's easily impressed.
24
Oh, you can smell ingredients. So what?
25
This is my dad.
26
He's never impressed.
27
He also happens to be the leader of our clan.
28
So what's wrong with having highly developed senses?
29
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, don't eat that!
30
What's going on here?
31
Turns out that funny smell was rat poison.
32
Suddenly, Dad didn't think my talent was useless.
33
I was feeling pretty good about my gift.
34
Until Dad gave me a job.
35
Clean.
36
Clean.
37
That's right.
38
Cleaner at the poison checker.
39
Cleaner, we know.
40
Close to godliness, which means clean.
41
You know, cleanliness is close to...
42
Never mind.
43
Move on.
44
Well, it made my dad proud.
45
Now, don't you feel better, Remy?
46
You've helped a noble cause.
47
Noble?
48
We're thieves, Dad.
49
And what we're stealing is, let's face it, garbage.
50
It isn't stealing if no one wants it.
51
If no one wants it, why are we stealing it?
52
Let's just say we have different points of view.
53
This much I knew.
54
If you are what you eat, then I only want to eat the good stuff.
55
But to my dad...
56
Food is fuel.
57
Get picky about what you put in a tank.
58
Your engine is gonna die.
59
Now shut up and eat your garbage.
60
If we're going to be thieves, why not steal the good stuff in the kitchen?
61
Where nothing is poison?
62
First of all, we are not thieves.
63
Secondly, stay out of the kitchen and away from the humans.
64
It's dangerous.
65
I know I'm supposed to hate humans, but there's something about them.
66
They don't just survive.
67
They discover.
68
They create.

¿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.
