wardrobe, and two bedside tables.

There is also a desk for study and a bookshelf.

An LCD TV and Wi-Fi connection.

Is it okay if I hang some things on the walls?
33
Yes, but please don't leave any holes in the walls.
34
I don't want you to make any major changes to the apartment.
35
What if something in the apartment stops working or breaks?
36
You can call me immediately and I will come over to look at it.
37
I live right down the street.
38
I will pay for any ongoing repairs.

Well, all of that sounds perfect.

But please do not drink alcohol at the party.
78
A student who stayed here caused damage to the apartment after drinking with some friends.

$800 a month.

87
Any damages to the apartment will come out of the deposit.

and this street is pretty quiet.

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.
