Why does it take so long?

I don't know.

It seems quite tight.

Normally the meeting just last two hours.

Now it's three hours already.

Maybe there are some problems with the new project.

Hey! He's coming.

He is crying, isn't he?

Oh my god. I think that project is extremely perfect.

What happened with him?

Hey Luke, what happened?

Is everything okay?

Come on Luke, everything will be fine.

Just let us know what happened.

Then we can discuss finding solution.

Don't cry like a child like this.

I'm okay. I'm okay.

Really? Come on, you can share your problems with us.

I'm fine. Really. I'm just...

Just what? Oh, I'm just so happy.

What? Are you kidding me?

No no. Just... I was just promoted.

And I'm so happy. I couldn’t hold back the tears.

I have been working here for like 4 years and it's the first time I am promoted.

Oh my. You are so incredible.

Congrats I thought there were some mistakes with the project.

No, no. Everything is fine.

The project is highly appreciated.

We can start next week.

So which position will you be in now?

I will be the Vice Chief of the Planning Department.

That's great.

But there is no Vice Chief crying like this.

Don't cry. This is good news, isn't it?

Yes, I know. But the tear is still falling. I'm so sorry.

Oh, a cry baby.

I was really nervous when I saw you crying.

I'm so sorry.

Thank you for supporting me to complete this project.

Pleasure. We should celebrate a party tonight.

Congrats, right?

Sure. Do you have time tonight, Luke?

Absolutely. I have an idea.

Let's come to my house.

I will treat this time.

Excellent. Deal.

See you then.

Hey! What's the matter with him?

He looks like he's going to be sick.

Should we take him to the hospital?

You didn't read his post on Facebook?

Not yet. I'm too busy today.

What happened?

He lost Lucy.

Lucy? His puppy?

I still saw her playing in the yard yesterday.

Yes. He lost her this morning.

Oh my God. He tried to find her in the park and some roads nearby.

But the result is zero.

He must be freaking out.

Lucy seems to be his family member.

Right. That is the reason why he is blanky now.

If I were him, I would cry like a river.

The poor boy.

What can we help him with?

I don't know.

I helped him to call Lucy around here all morning.

But you know...

That’s bad.

Do you have any ideas?

I think they should print some missing posts and stick them around this area.

That's a good idea.

Yes. One of my friends found his cat after 3 days by that way.

Perfect. Let me talk and appease him first.

Hey, Matt. I'm so sorry about Lucy.

That's fine.

It's my fault.

I didn't put my eyes on her when letting her go outside.

Come on. Everyone has a mistake.

We'll try our best to find her.

Okay? I tried. But you know...

I have an idea.

That is printing the missing posters and sticking them around.

Anyone who sees her can call you.

That's a big help.

Wait for me here and I will print them.

Then we can go around together.

Okay. Thank you so much.

Dave, do you want to go to the supermarket with me?

Supermarket?

Yes, absolutely.

We are going to go right now, aren't we, mom?

In 10 minutes.

You should go back to your room and change clothes.

It may be cold outside.

Okay, mom. Wait for me for a couple of minutes.

Sure. Let's go. Let's go, mom.

Pumpkin, do you think that you forgot anything?

Nah. I don't think so.

100

I got my coat, my boots, my scarf, and my hat.

101

I don't need gloves, mom. My coat has pockets.

102

I think you forgot one important thing.

103

What is it, mom?

104

A mask? Oh, yes.

105

But why do you have to wear a mask, mom?

106

It makes me feel breathless sometimes.

107

Listen, Dave.

108

You know, in the air outside there are many bacteria and viruses.

109

And, masks protect us from them, is that right?

110

Yes. My boy.

111

Bacteria and viruses can cause many diseases for us.

112

Some of them are very dangerous.

113

Oh, really?

114

It's so scary.

115

Yes. Using masks is one of the most effective ways to protect ourselves.

116

I understand mom.

117

And you know, you're flu, right?

118

Yes, but I feel better today.

119

Masks will help us to protect the ones who talk with us when we are sick.

120

They are a great thing, aren't they?

121

That's right.

122

Now, put your mask on then we are going to the supermarket.

123

Okay, mom. Hey, did you know anything?

124

What? What are you talking about?

125

Hey. What's up?

126

Two of you don't know anything about Jane and Eddie.

127

No, what happened with them?

128

They're getting married, aren't they?

129

Jesus, I know that.

130

I know that.

131

Jane is a good girl. And Eddie is also a perfect guy.

132

But why didn't she tell us anything?

133

That's weird.

134

We should give her a penalty for it.

135

No, no. Come on.

136

You guys don't know anything. Really?

137

Oh, come on.

138

Don't beat around the bush like this.

139

They broke up.

140

Oh my goodness. Really?

141

Unbelievable.

142

Who told you that?

143

Jane. You know she's cuckolded.

144

That's shocking.

145

I thought Eddie was a nice guy.

146

They look so happy all the time.

147

Maybe it's the reason why she's off today.

148

Poor Jane. She told me that she found out Eddie was dating another girl 1 week before.

149

And they argued.

150

Then she decided to break up.

151

Jerk. I can't understand what he thought.

152

I can't agree with you more.

153

Jane is a pretty girl, and I remember that she's a runner up in the Miss University contest.

154

Yes. It's hard to find another girl as perfect as her.

155

She's also smart and good at business.

156

She shouldn't forgive him.

157

Never. I hear that girl is his colleague.

158

Oh, that's the worst.

159

Thanks for letting us know.

160

I think we should appease her.

161

She may be crying at home.

162

Yes. Wanna come to her home tonight?

163

Sure. I'll call her in advance.

164

Long time no see, Anna.

165

You look so beautiful these days.

166

Oh, really?

167

Thank you. You are so pretty, too.

168

How is it going? Is everything good?

169

Yes. It's quite good.

170

My parents said that they miss you so much.

171

I miss them, too.

172

It has been a long time since I studied abroad.

173

This time, I will be here to work.

174

Really? Won't you come back to Los Angeles to work?

175

Yes. I wanna settle down here, Chicago.

176

Wow. I think it's good for you.

177

Your family is still here.

178

You should live near them to take care of them.

179

That is exactly what I think.

180

So what is your job?

181

I think I'll start work in the marketing field.

182

Well, I have had a degree when I studied abroad and also have experience.

183

That helps you a lot.

184

I don't think it's hard to find a job here to earn the living.

185

Right. Don't worry.

186

There are a lot of opportunities for you to find a well-paid job here.

187

I hope so. How about you?

188

Are you still working as a teacher in high school?

189

Yes. I've had this job since I graduated from university.

190

Is it good?

191

Are there any difficulties?

192

Actually, I find it interesting.

193

I have a sense of happiness when I see my students learn hard.

194

Good! How about the working atmosphere?

195

Very good, to be honest.

196

My colleagues help me a lot.

197

I can learn a lot of things from them.

198

I'm so happy to hear that.

199

Hello, are you Anna?

200

Yes, I'm Anna.

201

Hi. Nice to meet you.

202

I'm John. I'm the person referred to meet you.

203

Ah, yes. Hi John. Nice to meet you.

204

You look even more beautiful than in the photo.

205

Oh, thank you so much.

206

What kind of drink would you like?

207

I'd like orange juice.

208

Okay. I have heard that you are working in the tourism field.

209

Can I ask which company you are working for?

210

Ah yes. I'm currently working as a manager at K-travel.

211

My major is travel services.

212

That's really amazing. I'm a big fan of traveling.

213

That's great.

214

I can give you some ideas.

215

Thanks. And how about the time?

216

How much time do you spend on your work?

217

Well, it depends on the number of customers.

218

Really? The features of this profession depend on the period of time that tourists travel.

219

The holidays will be extremely busy.

220

Okay, I see.

221

And I'm a teacher at high school.

222

My school is in the center of our city.

223

Do you work at Greenville High School?

224

Yes. Why do you know that?

225

I haven't introduced this.

226

I guess. Because my sister also works here.

227

And I graduated from this school.

228

That's great. I may know her.

229

It is a coincidence.

230

Yes. When did you graduate?

231

Ten years ago.

232

Surprisingly.

233

And my company is quite near this school.

234

Can I have a chance to pick you up and have lunch some day?

235

Of course. I'm willing to.

236

Do you have my phone number?

237

Yes, I have.

238

So if you have free time, you can text me anytime.

239

Excuse me. Yes.

240

May I ask you what time it is?

241

I forgot my phone at home.

242

Ah yes. But are you Anna?

243

Yes. Oh. Jenny.

244

You're Jenny, right?

245

Exactly. Me, Jenny.

246

Oh my god, long time no see.

247

I couldn't realize you.

248

I'm so happy to see you here.

249

Why are you here? You went abroad for work.

250

Why did you suddenly appear?

251

When did you come back?

252

Anna, I will answer all your questions.

253

Yes. I'm just so happy.

254

I came back 1 week ago.

255

I have planned to tell you next week when my job is to settle down here.

256

You mean you came back to work here?

257

Seriously? Yes, seriously.

258

Oh, dear. Surprisingly.

259

Haha. I just changed the workplace.

260

Now I am a chef in JK restaurant.

261

It is near here. Do you know that?

262

Of course. Sometimes we have meetings in this restaurant.

263

Really? Now have a chance to join our class meeting each year.

264

Yes. Everyone said that they missed you so much.

265

We haven't seen each other for a long time.

266

So now we can hang out any time.

267

I'm so excited about it.

268

So where do you work now?

269

I am a lawyer. I work in Block C in Lombard Street.

270

Wow. I'm so proud of my friend.

271

How amazing you are.

272

When I was a child, I also dreamed of being a lawyer.

273

Don't mention it.

274

I'll call Alex and Alice to inform them that you came back.

275

I'm sure they're very happy.

276

Anna. How is it going?

277

Jack, long time no see.

278

I heard from Jenny that you've changed your job.

279

Is it true?

280

Yes. I'll have the first day in the new company tomorrow morning.

281

Good! What do you do?

282

You may be surprised when I tell you.

283

Marketing. marketing.

284

I remember you haven't learned it before.

285

Right. I am challenging myself in a new field.

286

I'm feeling so excited to be doing what I love.

287

how do you feel about it?

288

I found it quite interesting.

289

I learned a bit about it before, but just a little bit.

290

I'm happy when I hear you say that.

291

it's very good when you can follow what you like.

292

Yes. But why did you quit your previous job?

293

Is it bad? Not really.

294

I don't know why but I always felt tired when I worked.

295

I didn't have any energy.

296

So it's not bad...

297

How boring it is.

298

Oh, I'm sure you suffered a lot of tiredness.

299

Yes. The new job is different.

300

Although I have to learn everything, it's totally new to me, I'm still so excited.

301

Fortunately, you have found a job you love.

302

It's never too late if you're passionate about something.

303

Try your best.

304

Of course. I will always be by your side and support you.

305

Thank you so much for supporting me.

306

You also supported me with every decision that I made.

I will try my best to reach my dream.

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.
