Hey there, neighbor.
2
Oh, hey, it's Asher, right?
3
Yeah. Um, I just wanted to let you know.
4
I think there might be something wrong with your air conditioner.
5
Oh, really?
6
Yeah. I mean, it just seems to be running a lot, even when it's, uh, kind of cool outside.
7
Oh, no. No. Um, my partner runs a little hot so.
8
Not as hot as our planet.
9
Sorry. I don't mean to be that guy. It's just, um, we're all in this together.
10
Yeah, I drive a Prius, so.
11
And that's a nice little gesture. My car runs on reclaimed cooking oil.
12
I have some literature if you want it.
13
That's okay. Save the paper.
14
I haven't printed anything since 2004. I was going to email you.
15
In your power hungry computer?
16
My entire house is solar powered.
17
I sell energy back to the grid and use that money to save polar bears.
18
I'm an environmental lawyer, so you know I'm pretty green.
19
So is your lawn.
20
I went drought tolerant. Succulents, indigenous plants, rock garden.
21
My other daddy says your yard looks like a litter box.
22
It's a cute kid. I remember when she was in disposable diapers.
23
Special dollhouse delivery for Lily.
24
It's here! it's here!
25
I think you're going to love it.
26
I spent so many hours playing with this when I was your age.
27
Yeah, me too.
28
Hey, quick, turn off your car.
29
Why? It's in park.
30
I think. I have a judgy green neighbor.
31
He had the nerve to come over here and tell me that I'm not green enough.
32
Shut up! You're super green.
33
Thank you. I'm recycling a dollhouse.
34
I even recycled a child.
35
Didn't you win some award?
36
Yes, yes. The State Bar Association award for sustained excellence in the field of environmental...
37
Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's the one.
38
Law. There was one word left. You didn't have to cut me off.
39
Dollhouse, please.
40
Okay, okay.
41
You know what you should do?
42
March right over there and wave that trophy in his stupid eco face.
43
No. You think?
44
Yes. Those people are so annoying.
45
There's this girl at my school who was all over me about my boots 'cause they're leather.
46
Meanwhile, she's wearing crocs, like those aren't endangered.
47
You know what? I am gonna do that.
48
Show him to outgreen me. Okay.
49
Oh, no. Oh, no!
50
All right, those are blowing into his yard. That is... That's definitely gonna hurt my case.
51
Uh, you pick these up. I'm gonna go get the trophy.
52
Lily help her.
53
I heard that recycled child comment.
54
He's not home.
55
How's the cleanup going?
56
Well, I think I got most of them.
57
You've been at this a while. How can you only have like eight peanuts?
58
Instead of carrying them around.
59
I made a huge pile right over....again!?
60
Geez. They're everywhere. Oh, God.
61
Oh, bird! No! No! No! No! No! No!
62
Oh, no! What is that smell? It smells like French fries.
63
Biodiesel. Can you plug it up?
64
Oh. What? With what? Popcorn?
65
- Geez. Um, no! - This is a disaster!
66
Save the seals!
67
What, what, what, what the hell?
68
What did you do?
69
Uh, I won a green award.
70
That's what.
71
Again, I am so sorry. I guess in retrospect, it was a little crazy that I wanted to show you my State Bar Association award. - Stop.
72
And it's possible I come on a little too strong.
73
No, no, no. I like to think that I'm greener than I am.
74
But maybe I just want the credit without doing all the hard work that you do.
75
Well, you're right, it is hard, but, you know, it's also alienating.
76
You know, no one wants to be friends with me.
77
I can't tell you the last time I had people over for dinner, which is probably a good thing.
78
You know, with solar power, it takes four days to roast a chicken.
79
Really? If you want to cook all the way through, yeah.
80
You know, I had salmonella three times.
81
Wow. Yeah. If you want to come over to our house for dinner? We kind of owe you.
82
You can play with my dollhouse.
83
Yeah? Is it made from sustainable materials?
84
Forget it.

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.
