78
Well, I'm not really doing anything.
79
And look at how happy I am.

81
That's only fun for big nut brown hairs.
82
Not for us.
83
All right.
84
Well...
85
Come and lie down here next to me Lying down doesn't sound like fun.
86
Is this another not moving around sort of thing to do?
87
Look up and tell me what you see clouds Lots of clouds what sort of clouds?
88
Floaty and Drifty and white.
89
They're all different shapes.
90
Oh, I think that one looks like a fluffy fish.
91
And now there's a funny bird.
92
That one is like a little nut round hair.
93
Hmm, it could be a little field mouse.
94
I like looking at clouds.
95
Me too.
96
What was that?
97
It's a bird.
98
A very special bird.
99
If we speak softly, we won't scare her.
100
Why is she special?
101
Quails only visit in the summer.
102
Why haven't we ever seen a quail before?
103
Because they are secretive and very good at hiding.
104
I haven't seen one for a long, long time.
105
I'm very glad we got to see the special quail.
106
Oh, baby terrapins!
107
They look like little turtles.
108
That's just what they are.
109
Look!
110
They're joining their mother in the water for their very first swim.
111
One, two, three, four, five, six!
112
Look!
113
There's seven!
114
It doesn't want to get left behind.
115
Wow!
116
Anyone hungry?
117
Should we think about going home soon?
118
We are saying such wonderful things here by the river.
119
I think we should stay for a little while longer.
120
What was that?
121
What a lovely song.
122
Yes, it's singing for its friends.
123
Will we see them too?
124
I don't think so.
125
These are very rare.
126
I've never ever seen one until now.
127
Big Nut Brown Hare has never ever seen one. That was amazing.
128
Amazing!
129
Big Nut Brown Hair knows all the best things to do at the river.
130
And now you do too!
131
Yay!
132
He do!
133
And so Big Nut Brown Hair and Little Nut Brown Hair arrived back home after their lovely cool day by the river.
134
I'm hot again, Big Nut Brown Hair.
135
Oh, I'm so hot, I feel like I'm carrying a small nut-brown hair on my shoulders.
136
Yeah, you are.
137
You've got me on your shoulders.
138
Ah-ha!
139
So I have.
140
Whoa!
141
Well, we're nearly home, so you can walk the rest of the way.
142
I wish we could jump into the river again and get cool before bedtime.
143
What?
144
What are you looking at, Big Night Brown Hair?
145
Well, clouds make interesting shapes to look at.
146
But they also tell you what sort of weather is coming.
147
Really?
148
Yes.
149
These clouds are grey and low, which means...
150
Oh!
151
Which means it's going to rain.
152
It's lovely!
153
Lovely and cool.
154
Guess how much I love you?

¿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.
