1
Mom, if you're gonna go this slowly, you should really put your hazards on.
2
Excuse me, but after I almost got that ridiculous DWI, I can ill afford a speeding ticket.
3
And a Jaguar is an invitation to be pulled over.
4
Right.
5
If you're speeding, you're driving like you're in a parade.
6
Oh, hush.
7
Mom, seriously, by the time we get there, the wedding will be over.
8
The guests will have gone home.
9
North Carolina will be under a sea of water from melting ice caps.
10
See ya.
11
Huh?
12
Huh?
13
You could rhyme Mia with see ya.
14
Oh, that's good.
15
Or be ya.
16
Yeah.
17
You were such a peach, dear Mia.
18
When Rory grew up, she wanted to be ya.
19
Good.
20
But do you think it owes too much to Yates?
21
I don't need some work.
22
But you try finding something to rhyme with Howard besides coward.
23
Howard?
24
She's marrying a man named Howard?
25
What's wrong with Howard?
26
It's just, for me, it would be very difficult if my husband was named Howard.
27
Why?
28
It's just not a noble name.
29
I like noble male names.
30
Strong.
31
John.
32
Peter.
33
Richard.
34
Exactly.
35
Richard the Lionheart.
36
Well, I guess name nobility wasn't high on Mia's list.
37
Howard the Lionheart.
38
What are you doing?
39
Stuffy.
40
It's too cold to have a window.
41
Mom, just let me have it down.
42
Oh, my God.
43
Laurel, I stopped playing with the window.
44
I'm not playing.
45
I just want it down.
46
And you're making it go...
47
Are you kidding me?
48
Plea...
49
Mother, I'm putting it...
50
I'm putting it...
51
What?
52
Mom!
53
It's called a child lock, appropriately enough.
54
Oh!
55
So, Rory, what do you have lined up post-graduation?
56
Oh, I'm setting up interviews at different newspapers.
57
The Seattle Times, Detroit Free Press, San Francisco Chronicle.
58
Well, I'm not sure about the Seattle paper, and the Chronicle is dreadful, but the Detroit paper is quite reputable.
59
You know what else are reputable papers?
60
The New York Times, the Boston Globe, the Hartford Courant.
61
Yes, and only a short drive away from Starzallow.
62
Oh, well, that never occurred to me, but now that you mention it, yeah.
63
So, how does Logan feel about the possibility of your moving far away?
64
I'm not sure.
65
You're not sure?
66
No, things with Logan are... Are what?
67
We're kind of going through something.
68
Oh, that's a shame.
69
Such a nice young man.
70
He was so thoughtful when your grandfather was in the hospital.
71
Yeah.
72
Oh, hey, the skurf.
73
Oh, the skurf.
74
What's a skurf?
75
Well, when Rory was really little, my first sewing project was trying to make her a skirt.
76
It was a disaster.
77
It was terrible.
78
But Mia made me feel better by putting it on Rory's head and saying I created something new called a skurf.
79
Yeah.
80
So do we all like show tunes?
81
I found this marvelous cd when I took the car to be washed.
82
No, are you listening?
83
I've already booked a Swedish massage for one o'clock.
84
I want to know what I can do at 2 30.
85
Good lord no. A watsu?
86
Why would I want to re-experience my own birth?
87
I'll be back to take your orders.
88
Big menus.
89
Yeah, that's a good sign.
90
Oh, I love when they show pictures of the food.
91
I would be upset if I was that fried chicken, though.
92
That picture makes her look fat.
93
Fine.
94
Book me a salt scrub at 2.30.
95
Thank you.
96
Where on earth are we?
97
Well, Mom, since you wouldn't let us take you to a drive-thru, we've come here to Winky's, a fine eatery just off I-85.
98
Very down home.
99
We ready here?
100
Oh, only halfway through.
101
Don't tell me how it turns out.
102
I smell cigarette smoke.
103
This is one of those places that still allows cigarettes, isn't it?
104
Mom, if you prefer to wait in the car, we can bring food to you there.
105
Well, that would be foolish.
106
The reason I refuse to go to the drive-thru is because I won't allow eating in my car.
107
Hey, they have lobster.
108
Lobster? For $12.95?
109
How could you go wrong?
110
I'll have the lobster.
111
See, you'll have lobster, I'll have shrimp, we'll make it a seafood night.
112
A seafood in a place like this?
113
Very risky.
114
And a hot dog.
115
We'll have a hot dog for the table.
116
You'll go in on that with us, won't you, Mom?
117
I'll have a turkey sandwich on the wheat and a glass of Chardonnay.
118
That's the clear one.
119
My name is Charlene.
120
Holler if you need something.
121
Wow, huge case of cakes behind you there.
122
Ooh, yeah, Winky's got a trophy case full of cakes.
123
Hey, I bet Mia makes her triple-layered German chocolate cake for the wedding, don't you think?
124
Probably.
125
Mmm, aromatherapy.
126
That's what I want.
127
Are you sure you two won't join me for something at the spa?
128
Facial, Moroccan mud wrap.
129
My treat.
130
Mother, we came here because we made a commitment to go to a wedding, so that's what we're gonna do.
131
Suit yourself.
132
I need to use the facilities.
133
Wish me luck.
134
I love it here.
135
And I'm totally gonna score a panda in that crane machine on the way out.
136
Mom, do you think we should dial back the talk about Mia in front of Grandma?
137
I mean, I don't think she's thrilled to hear about our surrogate mother slash grandmother.
138
She knew that Mia is the reason for the trip.
139
I think it's okay if we talk about her.
140
I know, but it seems to bother her, you know?
141
And I thought during this trip we could do more mother-daughter, daughter-daughter bonding.
142
Ten hours in the car, not enough bonding for you?
143
I'm just worried about you guys.
144
I mean, what's going to happen after I graduate?
145
After you graduate?
146
That's when the party gets started.
147
Yeah, I just, I want you guys to remain close.
148
Close?
149
Ish.

¿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.
