1
Hi.
2
I think you're in the wrong neighborhood.
3
Are you looking for Coachella?
4
This is Sophia.
5
She volunteers down at the hospital.
6
Come on in.
7
What have you brought into our home?
8
What's wrong with Sophia?
9
You made a rule in this house that we would never hire hot babysitters.
10
It's fine now.
11
What is that supposed to mean?
12
You know, we're getting older.
13
Don't include me in that.
14
The dad and the hot babysitter?
15
That's the premise of, like, every good movie.
16
It's a whole aisle at the video store.
17
If you think there's still video stores, I got nothing to worry about.
18
Kate, why did you cut up your new shirt?
19
Oh, Sophia said to beat Tiffany at her own game by making it cooler than anything she wears.
20
But I bought one too.
21
We were twinsies.
22
Oh, and you don't have to make dinner for me and Sophia.
23
She's bringing sushi.
24
I'm always trying to get you to eat sushi.
25
You said you hate it.
26
Sophia said I'd like it.
27
I said you'd like it, but then Sophia said it.
28
I don't see why you're so bent out of shape.
29
I thought the whole reason you hired Sophia was so that Katie would like her. Was.
30
But now you seem mad.
31
Oh, I'm mad.
32
Take it easy.
33
You know what?
34
Sophia needs to be told that there are boundaries.
35
And I would like for you to do that.
36
Right, I'll talk to her, but I think you're overreacting.
37
We need to have a talk about boundaries.
38
The wife's a little upset.
39
Well, then I guess I'll just have to try to behave myself around you. Who?
40
Me?
41
Me?
42
You know what I mean.
43
I knew it!
44
We're just ridiculous.
45
That's me, ridiculous.
46
See you tomorrow.
47
Bye.
48
When she was leaving, she said, see you tomorrow, and her eyebrows are going all over her face like this.
49
Adam, I believe that you believe something happened.
50
Fine.
51
I'm going to prove it to you.
52
Oh, hey, Sophia.
53
Emmy left her doll on the floor.
54
My roommate just texted me and said that she can't pick me up.
55
Is there any way I could catch a ride home?
56
Adam can take you.
57
Good night.
58
What are you doing to me?
59
I was dying when you were showing off your arms.
60
What?
61
You talked to me about boundaries and your wife was right there.
62
But she won't be on the ride home.
63
I'll be waiting in the car.
64
Uh-oh.
65
Sophia is going to jump me in the car.
66
You have to drive her home.
67
What?
68
You're having a midlife crisis.
69
Last couple days, I've been feeling a little jealous.
70
Uh-oh.
71
And I know you had a conversation with my husband about boundaries.
72
He told you about that?
73
I just wanted to tell you, I'm cool with it.
74
If it works for the two of you, it works for me.
75
You're very open-minded.
76
I know.
77
It would be great if sometime all three of us could be together while you're doing your thing.
78
We're gonna have some fun, Sophia.
79
Yeah, most wives aren't this open to sharing their husbands.
80
What now?

¿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.
