We should celebrate tonight, huh?

Girls on the town.

I can't.

I have to study.

Besides that, I was thinking you're golfing.

Who said this?

Martin Luther.

Very good, Miss Gilmore.

And what year did Martin Luther address the Christian nobility?

1520. Very good, Miss Gilmore.

Until next time.

News is on.

One sec.

For our top story tonight,

a grizzly horrible thing happened in a small town where no grizzly horrible thing has ever happened.

Everyone's shocked.

House slides downhill.

Liposuction kills.

Stay back.

Oh, God, where are you?

You scared me.

Sorry.

I've been sneaking around here like an idiot,

trying not to wake you up.

Been up for hours.

Why?

have a bad dream?

The one where you finally meet Christiane Amanpour and she's really stupid?

I realized last night that at this rate,

I will never finish all the work I have to do.

What work?

What work, she asks?

Well, you know me and that Dibby Christiane.

Takes a little while to catch up.

Here.

Things to do before graduation.

A list, of course.

Study for finals, senior breakfast,

senior awards, finish final edition of the Franklin,

organize a new student government,

convince Paris to give up student gavel.

Oh, and I forgot, man the yearbook distribution this afternoon at the stupid senior palooza.

Unbelievable.

Well, I'll be running the Booster Club grad night table at the same time,

so we can feel stupid and abused together.

I can't finish all this and sleep at the same time.

You have to sleep.

It's what keeps you pretty.

Who cares if I'm pretty if I fail my finals?

Oh, OK.

You've got this so completely backwards.

What is all this?

I found that if I focus too much on one subject,

I start to get a little punchy.

This way, when I hit Bolshevik Revolution overload,

I just shift over here.

And oh, hello, Anne Bolin is going down and then when that gets too depressing,

it's right over to calculus.

Saving the party subject for last, huh?

This shifting back and forth seems to produce better results.

I think you're pushing yourself too hard.

I made out a schedule.

Every single moment of every single day from now until...

Man, what's that?

My notes.

Really?

I don't think Shakespeare knew himself this well.

...around various parts of your paper as friendly reminders that to err is human.

And that here at Chilton we try to beat that humanity right out of here.

Okay, next up.

The test.

I can't believe it.

I mean, I've known him since the sixth grade, but suddenly he's different.

He's not gangly anymore.

You remember how gangly he was?

I'm sorry, what?

You're not listening to me.

I am.

I'm sorry.

I just couldn't find my bookmark.

Okay, go ahead.

1590. Published?

1698. Ooh, 1623.

Close.

How was 1623?

Close.

You got the 16 part right.

I was off by 75 years.

Well, anything under 100 is close.

What kind of a rule is that?

I'm running the study session here.

Okay, Richard III.

1591. 93.

96. Okay, that's getting really annoying now.

Note cards.

Note cards look sloppy.

We will know our information.

The other teams will use no cards.

100

And the other teams will lose.

101

You scared me.

102

Come on, tell me.

103

Lorelai, get away.

104

Tell me now.

105

I'm serious.

106

Get away from me.

107

Please tell me.

108

This is not funny.

109

So, what are you doing tonight?

110

Well, homework and then homework.

111

And if I get all that done in time, some homework.

112

You?

113

154 poems of 14 lines.

114

Except?

115

Except for 126, which is 12 lines.

116

Good.

117

They're written in iambic pentameter.

118

Except?

119

Except for 145, which is in tetrameter.

120

Rock on, sister.

121

Really?

122

Not one mistake.

123

Eating junk food and not shaving my legs isn't going to change that, is it?

124

No. Okay, so I don't even want to go there.

125

I have things to do.

126

I have school and Harvard to think about.

127

Honey, Harvard's like three years away.

128

But now is the time to be preparing for it.

129

I mean, Harvard is hard to get into.

130

And I don't know why I even spend my time thinking about anything else.

131

Breathe, breathe.

132

I'm a failure.

133

What?

134

I am stupid.

135

Oh, stop.

136

I'm uninformed and ignorant, and I can't even think of a second synonym for uninformed.

137

I suck.

138

Honey.

139

13 million volumes?

140

I've read, like, what, 300 books in my entire life,

141

and I'm already 16?

142

Do you know how long it would take me to read 13 million books?

143

But, honey, you don't have to read every one of them.

144

Tuesdays with Maury?

145

Skip that.

146

Look, freak, we will not be late.

147

It's the first day of school.

148

I want to get there early.

149

We will be there early, I promise.

150

I have different classes this year.

151

My roots aren't the same.

152

I haven't found the quickest path around.

153

And my locker, they moved it,

154

so I don't even know if it'll work properly,

155

and then I'll have to get a new one,

156

and God knows how long that'll take or where it'll be,

157

and that could send the whole day into chaos.

158

I'm just excited.

159

I need all of my other books.

160

You don't need all these.

161

I think I do.

162

Edna St. Vincent Millay?

163

That's my bus book.

164

Uh-huh.

165

What's the Faulkner?

166

My other bus book.

167

So just take one bus book.

168

No, the Millay is a biography.

169

And sometimes, if I'm on the bus and I pull out a biography,

170

and I think to myself,

171

well, I don't really feel like reading about a person's life right now,

172

then I'll switch to the novel.

173

And then sometimes if I'm not into the novel, I'll switch back.

174

Hmm.

175

Still there, Michelle?

176

Yes, I...

177

Hold on.

178

What is the Gore Vidal?

179

Oh, that's my lunch book.

180

Uh-huh.

181

So lose the Vidal or the Faulkner.

182

You don't need two novels.

183

Vidal's essays.

184

Uh-huh.

185

But the Eudora Welty's not essays or biography.

186

Right.

187

So it's another novel.

188

Lose it.

189

Uh-uh.

190

It's short stories.

191

Open it.

192

Leave the pot, Ethel.

193

I'm just an enabler.

194

Okay, just remember, these are the PSATs, okay?

195

So it's like the baby gap.

196

They don't count as much.

197

Plus, you can take them over again.

198

Plus, you are very young.

199

You have years of learning ahead of you.

200

And the really important thing is that you tried very hard.

201

I got a 740 verbal and a 760 math.

202

Oh, thank God you're not an idiot.

203

I got a 740 verbal and a 760 math?

204

Those are damn good scores, little lady.

205

Really amazing, top notch.

206

Those are PSAT-rific.

207

1729 to 96, Empress of Russia, 1762 to 96.

208

Okay, hold still, please.

209

Originally named Sophie Frederick Augustin von Enthold Zerbst.

210

Everybody called her a kitten.

211

What do you say?

212

We call it a night and get some beauty sleep.

213

You go.

214

I want to review my notes one more time.

215

I'm going to go study before the food gets here.

216

What?

217

Tomorrow is Saturday.

218

I know.

219

I like to get my weekend homework done and out of the way by Saturday night,

220

so then I can do extra credit stuff on Sunday.

221

Hello?

222

I'm in here.

223

Wow, you beat me home by two minutes,

224

and your nose is already in the books.

225

I can go from zero to studying in less than 60 seconds.

226

Very impressive.

227

Mail call.

228

I can't wait four hours for one of you guys to show up.

229

Oh, hello.

230

Hi.

231

You're early.

232

Yeah, well, I felt so bad about the mix-up last time I wanted to make sure it didn't happen again.

233

It won't.

234

Yeah?

235

If you wanted me here, I'm here.

236

Should I do something or what?

237

.. in that auto area is slowing a bit,

238

and that will probably lead to lower growth in the fourth quarter.

239

And that those are the reactions occurring in the two half cells.

240

What do you do next?

241

Well, if we add them together,

242

doubling the coefficients of the silver half equation,

243

but not the voltage, we get the equation for the complete reaction.

244

Well, you're in much better shape than you want to think you are.

245

Impossible.

246

Go on.

247

Go on.

248

She's in pie?

249

Did she even have dinner?

¿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.
