That's good news.

Would you like the generic version or the brand name one?

Hmm, what's the difference?
25
The generic one is cheaper but works the same as the brand.

Oh, really?
27
Then I'll take the generic one.
28
Perfect!
29
That will save you some money.
30
Thanks, I really appreciate that.
31
You're welcome.
32
Do you have a pharmacy card with us?
33
No, I don't think so.
34
Would you like to make one?
35
It gives you discounts on future purchases.
36
Sure, that sounds good.

Great.
38
I'll need your ID and phone number, please.

Here's my ID and my phone number is… Thank you.

Here's your receipt.

Thanks.
54
Now, let me explain how to take the medicine.
55
Yes, please.
56
Take one antibiotic capsule twice a day after meals.
57
Twice a day.
58
Okay.
59
Okay.
60
And take one spoon of cough syrup three times a day.
61
Before or after food?
62
After food is better.
63
Got it.
64
Also, drink plenty of water and get some rest.
65
I will.
66
Thank you for the advice.
67
No problem.
68
How long should I take these medicines?
69
For seven days.
70
Don't skip any doses.
71
Even if I feel better?

Yes.
73
Finish the full course.
74
Okay.
75
I understand.
76
Great.
77
Can I drive after taking this medicine?
78
The antibiotic is fine, but the cough syrup may cause drowsiness.
79
Oh, so I shouldn't drive after taking the syrup?
80
Exactly.
81
Better take it when you're home.
82
Thanks for letting me know.
83
You're welcome.
84
Can I take it with my vitamin pills?
85
Yes, that's okay.
86
No interaction.
87
Perfect.
88
Do you have any allergies to medicine?
89
No, I don't.
90
That's good.
91
How should I store the syrup?
92
Keep it at room temperature, away from sunlight.
93
All right, not in the fridge then.
94
Exactly.
95
Can I take this antibiotic with milk?
96
Better not.
97
Take it with water.
98
Okay, I'll remember that.
99
Great.
100
How long does it take to start working?
101
Usually within two or three days.
102
That's fast.
103
Yes, but remember to complete all doses.
104
Sure thing.
105
Also, avoid spicy food for a few days.
106
Oh, really?
107
Why?
108
It can irritate your throat and slow healing.
109
Makes sense.
110
And try to get enough sleep.
111
I'll do that.
112
You'll feel much better soon.
113
I hope so.
114
If your symptoms don't improve, see your doctor again.
115
Okay, got it.
116
Would you like a small measuring cup for the syrup?
117
Yes, please.
118
That would help.

Here you go.
120
It's free.
121
Oh, thank you so much.
122
You're very welcome.
123
You're really kind.
124
I just like helping people feel better.
125
That's great.
126
Do you need anything else today?
127
Actually, yes.
128
Do you have pain relief cream?
129
Yes, we do.
130
It's right over there on aisle three.
131
Oh, I see it.
132
Thank you.

It's good for muscle pain.

Anything else?

Sure.
144
That will be $8.99 more.
145
No problem.
146
Here's my card again.

Perfect.
150
Do you have any cold medicine for kids?
151
Yes, we do.
152
How old is the child?
153
She's six.
154
Then you can use our children's cold syrup.

¿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.
