Creando lección...
1
Today we are testing boats up against the biggest sea monster, the Bloop that's made entirely out of LEGO.
2
Also guys, I want to mention real quick that we have a LEGO Elgron Maha video on this channel.
3
So if you haven't already, be sure to go watch that video after this one.
4
And I'll be sure to leave a link in the description down below for that video.
5
But anyways guys, let's get straight into this epic and terrifying video.
6
Alright guys for boat test number one we have this lego minifigure wearing a speedo just chilling in this little raft.
7
So yes guys now it's time to test out and see what will happen.
8
With no surprise at all, the Bloop had no problem just inhaling boat number one.
9
So that makes the Bloop 1-0 and now it's time to move on to the next one.
10
Alrighty guys, now on to boat test number two.
11
We have a mini wooden boat with now two minifigures on it.
12
So let's see if they have what it takes to survive the test.
13
And with no hassle at all, the Bloop just absolutely devoured boat number two as well.
14
Making the Bloop 2-0, and now it is time for the real challenge moving on to the next one.
15
Now onto boat test number three being a much longer boat and featuring three minifigures as well.
16
So let's see if the Bloop is strong enough for this one.
17
All righty guys, the Bloop is on a streak right now and is 3-0 seeing no difficulty from these boats.
18
So now it is time for the real challenge going up against the big yachts.
19
All righty guys, now it's time for boat test number four being a beautiful yacht featuring the Spongebob crew.
20
So let's see if there will be any Spongebob survivors left.
21
Wow guys, the Bloop ate the yacht and took the ship deep into the water and also flipped the boat as well.
22
So I'm obviously giving the point to the Bloop, again making him 4-0, but we have one final boat left.
23
So let's get to it.
24
Alrighty guys, last but not least we have boat test number five, the Mega Yacht.
25
Featuring a lonely rich billionaire on the top of his boat, ready to take on the bloop.
26
The End
27
All righty guys the mega yacht was intimidating But the power
28
and the size of the bloop was too much for it It was easily able to use its size

¿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.
