1
Emily Charlton?
2
Andrea Sachs?
3
Yes?
4
Great.
5
Human resources certainly has an odd sense of humor.
6
Follow me.
7
So I was Miranda's second assistant, but her first assistant recently got promoted, and so now I'm the first.
8
Oh, and you're replacing yourself.
9
Well, I am trying.
10
Miranda sacked the last two girls after only a few weeks.
11
We need to find someone who can survive here.
12
Do you understand?
13
Yeah, of course.
14
Who's Miranda?
15
Oh, my God.
16
I will pretend you did not just ask me that.
17
She's the editor-in-chief of Runway, not to mention a legend.
18
You work a year for her and you can get a job at any magazine you want.
19
A million girls would kill for this job.
20
It sounds like a great opportunity.
21
I'd love to be considered.
22
Andrea, Runway is a fashion magazine, so an interest in fashion is crucial.
23
What makes you think I'm not interested in fashion? fashion.
24
Oh my god.
25
No, no, no!
26
She's on her way.
27
Tell everyone.
28
She's not supposed to be here until nine.
29
Her driver just text messaged and her facialist ruptured at ease.
30
God, these people.
31
That I can't even talk about.
32
Move it!
33
I don't understand why it's so difficult to confirm an appointment.
34
I know, I'm so sorry, Miranda.
35
I actually did confirm last night.
36
The tales of your incompetence do not interest me.
37
Tell Simone I'm not going to prove that girl that she sent me for the Brazilian layout.
38
Yes for clean, athletic, smiling.
39
She set me dirty, tired and paunchy.
40
And RSVP, yes, the Michael Kors party.
41
I want the driver to drop me off at 9.30 and pick me up at 9.45 sharp.
42
Then call my ex-husband and remind him that the parent-teacher conference is at Daltoner tonight.
43
And then call my husband, ask him to please meet me for dinner at that place I went to with Massimo.
44
Also, tell Richard I saw all the pictures that he sent for that feature on the female paratroopers.
45
And they're all so deeply attractive.
46
Is it impossible to find a lovely, slender female paratrooper?
47
Am I reaching for the stars here?
48
Not really.
49
Also, I need to see all the things that Nigel has pulled for Gwyneth's second cover try.
50
I wonder if she's lost any of that weight yet.
51
Who is that?
52
Nobody.
53
Um, well, Human Resources sent her up about the new assistant job, and I was sort of pre-interviewing her for you, but she's hopeless and totally wrong.
54
Well, clearly, I'm going to have to do that myself, because the last two you sent me were completely inadequate, so sent her in.
55
She wants to see you.
56
Oh, she wants to see you.
57
Move!
58
This is foul.
59
Don't let her see you.
60
Go!
61
Andrea!
62
Hm?
63
Wait.
64
Hello?
65
Andrea, Brandy decided to kill the Autumn Jacket story for September, and she is pulling up the Sedona shoot from October.
66
You need to come into the office right this second, and you pick up her coffee order on the way.
67
Now?
68
Now get a pen and write this down.
69
of one no-foam skimmed latte with an extra shot and three drip coffees with room for milk.
70
Searing hot, and I mean hot.
71
Is there some reason that my coffee isn't here?
72
Has she died or something?
73
No. God.
74
Oh, bloody tongue.
75
I hope you know that this is a very difficult job, for which you are totally wrong.
76
And if you mess up, my head is on a chopping block.
77
Now, hang that up.
78
Don't just fling it anywhere.
79
Okay, first of all, you and I answer the phones.
80
The phone must be answered every single time it rings.
81
Calls roll to voicemail and she gets very upset.
82
If I'm not here...
83
Andrea, you are chained to that desk.
84
Well, what if I need to...?
85
What?
86
No. One time an assistant left the desk because she sliced her hand open with a letter opener,
87
and Miranda missed Lagerfeld just before he boarded a 17-hour flight to Australia.
88
She now works at TV Guide.
89
Miranda Priestly's office?
90
No, she's not available.
91
Who is it?
92
Yes, I will tell her you called. Yet again.

¿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.
