Yesterday I was walking around for ages looking for the bookstore.

Yes, eventually, but it took me about half an hour.
37
Well, at least you found it in the end.
38
Maybe you should get a map.

I did have a map.

I just couldn't work out where I was to start with.

So, what are you studying?

I'm doing a degree in natural sciences.

Physics.

You can do absolutely anything with a physics degree.

There are physicists who work in finance,

research, and engineering, to name a few.
48
What's more, some even use physics to make music and become musicians.
49
Exactly.
50
Anyway, do you live here on campus?
51
Yes, I do.
52
It seemed the cheapest option,
53
and I don't want to borrow too much money.
54
No, neither do I.
55
I've already taken out a student loan,
56
and I've spent quite a bit of it already.

Right.
59
I must hurry up and finish my meal.

I have a lecture at two.
61
So do I.
62
The food is so delicious here.
63
Excuse me, I'm sorry to trouble you,
64
but could you tell me how I can get to the train station?
65
Yes, no problem.
66
It's that way.
67
Keep walking straight ahead.
68
Then after you pass the library,
69
you have to turn left.
70
Then take your first right,
71
and it's across from the bus station.
72
You cannot miss it.
73
Thank you so much.
74
I've only been in town a few days,
75
so I really don't know my way around yet.
76
Oh, I know that feeling.
77
My husband and I moved here a year ago,
78
and I still don't know how to find certain places.
79
Houston is so big.
80
So, just to double check.
81
I keep walking straight ahead till I pass the library.
82
Then I have to turn left and take the first right.
83
Then it's across the bus station.
84
Is that correct?
85
Yes, that is correct.
86
Well, thanks for helping me.
87
I must go and catch my train.
88
Hopefully I haven't missed it.
89
Okay, bye.
90
Are you from around here?
91
No, I'm from Mexico.
92
Oh, really?
93
Were you born in Mexico?
94
No, I wasn't born there, actually.
95
I'm originally from Spain.
96
That's interesting.
97
So, when did you move to Mexico?
98
I moved to Mexico when I was seven years old.
99
My parents immigrated there.
100
Did you grow up in Mexico?
101
Yes, I grew up in Mexico.
102
Where did you live?
103
We lived in Guadalajara.
104
It's a beautiful city in western Mexico.
105
Did you go to school in Guadalajara?
106
Yes.
107
And when did you come to the United States?
108
I came here five months ago.
109
I'm Juan Martinez.
110
It's nice to meet you.
111
Nice to meet you, too.
112
I'm Olivia Carter.
113
And what do you do now?
114
I'm a computer technician.
115
I see.
116
So you're an immigrant to the United States.
117
Yes, that's right.
118
What are some of the difficulties of being an immigrant in the U.S.?
119
I guess one of the biggest difficulties is that I don't have any relatives here.
120
I mean, I have a lot of friends,
121
but that's not the same thing.
122
In Mexico, on holidays or the weekend, we visit relatives.
123
It isn't the same here.
124
And what do you miss the most from home?
125
I miss my parents, friends,
126
festivals, and the best food in the world.
127
Do you have any siblings, Mary?
128
No, I don't.
129
I'm an only child.
130
Really?
131
Yeah.
132
What about you, Leo?
133
I come from a big family.
134
I have two brothers and one sister.
135
Wow.
136
Do you get along with them?
137
Yes.
138
They're my best friends, and I'd be completely lost in life without them.
139
No one makes me laugh out loud the way they do.
140
And we all have similar interests.
141
So there's always someone up for a run, hike, coffee, or cake.
142
That's nice.
143
So, do you like being an only child?
144
Of course.
145
I get all my parents' attention.
146
Yeah, I share my parents' attention with three other people.
147
But sometimes I want a brother or a sister.
148
Do you ever feel lonely?
149
Sure, but it's okay.
150
I have lots of friends.
151
What does your father do, Mary?
152
He is a baker.
153
He runs his own bakery.
154
Really?
155
Do you know the Sweet Spot Bakery?
156
It's my father's.
157
Yeah, it's located downtown, next to the bookstore.
158
Yes.
159
I've been there to buy a cake.
160
I didn't know it's your father's bakery.
161
Anyway, I'm going there a little later.
162
Would you like to join me?
163
I'll treat you to cakes.
164
I'd love to.
165
Thanks.
166
What about your mother?
167
What does she do?
168
She is a florist.
169
You know, she loves flowers very much.
170
That's cool.
171
I like flowers, too.
172
Does she have a flower shop?
173
Yes.
174
The shop was opened three years ago.
175
Where is it located?
176
It's located in Marvel Street,
177
between the grocery store and the souvenir shop, opposite the park.
178
Good location!
179
Does your mother arrange flowers, too?
180
Of course.
181
She's very good at arranging flowers for any occasion.
182
such as birthdays, weddings, and funerals.
183
What time does the shop open?
184
Does it open every day?
185
Yes, it opens every day,
186
from Monday to Friday between 8 a.m and 6 p.m.
187
On Saturday and Sunday, it opens between 9 a.m to 4 p.m.
188
I'm going to Los Angeles next month.
189
Have you been there?
190
No, I haven't.
191
I don't like big cities.
192
Really?
193
I do.
194
I think they're really exciting.
195
New York is great, and Houston and Chicago are too.
196
I've been to all of them.
197
I really like traveling and discovering new places.
198
So do I, but I don't like noise and crowds and neither does my husband.
199
We prefer to go to quieter places.
200
We like to relax on vacation.
201
Me too, but I find the big cities very relaxing.
202
For example, they all have really nice parks.
203
That's true.
204
Anyway, I don't have much money to spend on vacations.
205
Neither do I.
206
I always stay in cheap hotels,
207
and I don't go to expensive restaurants.
208
But it's hard to find those places, isn't it?
209
No, it's the countryside for us.
210
I like going for walks,
211
and so does my husband.
212
My husband does, too.
213
We do lots of walking in the cities we visit.
214
Well, I can't wait for my next vacation.
215
I can't either.
216
I'm really looking forward to it.
217
Who is that?
218
She looks so beautiful in that elegant red dress.
219
Do you mean the actress with the long brown hair?
220
No, the one with the very dark hair.
221
It's almost black.
222
Oh, the one with the curly hair.
223
No, no. I mean the one wearing the ponytail.
224
It looks really good on her.
225
Oh yeah, I can see her now.
226
It suits her indeed.
227
Oh look, that's Jennifer Lawrence.
228
She doesn't look so good with her hair in that style.
229
What do you call that?
230
You mean a bun?
231
Yeah, I'm not sure I like it.
232
She's got really nice blonde hair.
233
She should wear it down.
234
Anyway, she's very pretty.
235
I think this hairstyle looks great on her oval-shaped face.
236
Look, that's Kristen Krook!
237
I saw that actress in a movie recently.
238
Is she American?
239
No, she's Canadian.
240
But her mother is Chinese,
241
and her father is Dutch.
242
I love her smile.
243
She looks so pretty.
244
Yeah, and she has a really cute hairstyle.
245
I like her bangs.
246
Yeah, she looks really cute in bangs.
247
That actress with the long brown hair has a great smile, too.
248
Do you mean the one with the long, straight hair?
249
No, no, it's not really straight,
250
but it's not curly either.
251
Oh, her?
252
Yeah, she has beautiful eyes.
253
Are they blue or green?
254
I can't tell.
255
Anyway, what's her name?
256
She's in a lot of movies.
257
Yeah, and she travels all around the world.
258
She's always helping people.
259
But I don't know her name.
260
She's a famous Spanish actress,
261
but she plays roles in both English and Spanish.
262
She looks beautiful with her long brown hair.
263
Yeah, it's almost light brown.
264
I like it that way.
265
Sometimes it's darker than that.
266
Yeah, and I like her dress.
267
You know, very simple.
268
She looks good in light pink.
269
So, George, what do you do when you get home in the evening?
270
Like, do you have special routines?
271
Well, I pretty much do the same thing every night.
272
So, what's the first thing you do when you get home?
273
I always open the windows as soon as I enter the house.
274
I really like fresh air,
275
so I open them even when it's cold outside.
276
And then, I take everything out of my pockets,
277
like my change and my keys and my wallet.
278
And I put it all in the nightstand next to my bed.
279
Yeah?
280
That's probably a good idea,
281
so you don't lose anything.
282
I have to do that before I change my clothes.
283
If I don't, my wallet ends up in the laundry.
284
Right.
285
Not a good idea.
286
So, yeah.
287
And then I change my clothes.
288
I like to put on something comfortable,
289
like jogger pants or shorts,
290
and a t-shirt or a tank top.
291
You know, get out of my work clothes.
292
And let's see.
293
Usually I get on my exercise bike and ride for half an hour or so.
294
I always feel good after I exercise a bit.
295
Good for you.
296
I don't exercise enough.
297
Then after exercising, I watch a little TV,
298
and I relax for about two hours.
299
What about dinner?
300
Do you cook every night?
301
Well, I try to cook something healthy.
302
You know, a lot of people just throw something into the microwave.
303
But I always cook some meat and vegetables and make a fresh salad.
304
That's good.
305
Yeah.
306
Oh, but first, I usually have to do the dishes,
307
like before I cook.
308
So yeah, I do the dishes and clean the kitchen.
309
I'm always so tired after dinner,
310
so I always leave the dishes in the sink.
311
And I don't have time to do them in the morning.
312
I have to be at work by 8.
313
Right.
314
So what do you do after dinner?
315
Well, I usually sit down and read something,
316
just to relax for a bit.
317
So, what time do you go to bed?
318
Around 10.30.
319
I fall asleep right away and don't wake up until 6 in the morning.
320
So that's pretty much it.
321
The same old thing every evening.
322
I don't really go out on weeknights.
323
I work so hard during the week,
324
so I only have fun on the weekends.
325
Thank you.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
