Hey, why don't you come and see my collection sometime?
14
Four.
15
My wife says I should take up gardening.
16
We have a big garden and she loves working in it, but the truth is it bores me.
17
Five.
18
Well, everyone in my family loves sports.
19
Everyone, that is, except me.
20
My family's out playing baseball and stuff all the time, but I think most sports are pretty boring.
21
I don't like chasing balls around a field, and I couldn't hit a ball if I had to.
22
6. My friends think I'm really boring because I'm always listening to music.
23
I go to concerts all the time.

I love Mozart and all that classical stuff.

I used to play sports a lot when I was younger.

I have my own studio in my garage, and pretty soon I'll have a show at a gallery.
30
Maybe I'll become famous.
31
I really enjoy using bright colours in my paintings.
32
That's what I like best about it.
33
Two.
34
I've always collected things, even when I was young.
35
I used to collect everything, Comic books, baseball cards, you name it.
36
But they're all packed away in boxes now.
37
Now my favorite pastime is gardening.
38
I spend all weekend outside with my flowers.
39
I love seeing them change.
40
That's what I like best about it, I guess.

They're these little seeds at first, and then one day, they're big, beautiful flowers.
42

43
When I was a teenager, all I did was sit around playing video games.
44
But I can't stand them anymore.
45
I work in an office now, so I sit in front of a boring computer screen all day.
46
Now I like being outdoors.
47
I belong to a hiking group, and we go someplace different every weekend.
48
I keep fit and healthy this way.
49
The best thing is that I can make some really great friends.
50
4. I like collecting things.
51
I collected baseball cards when I was a kid, but I don't anymore.
52
These days, baseball card collectors are only interested in money.
53
I wanted to collect things that are really beautiful, so that's why I started collecting stamps.
54
Some of the stamps I have are really, really beautiful.
55
I think they're like paintings.
56
What I like best is looking at my collection.
57
It's like walking through a tiny museum full of wonderful paintings.
58
Five.
59
I always loved reading as a kid, so for a long time I wanted to write children's books.
60
I tried to do it for a few years after college, but it was really hard to come up with good stories.
61
I guess I'm not very good with words.
62
Now I'm happy just painting.
63
I've won a few prizes, too, in art competitions, for my watercolours and oils.
64
The pictures are important to me, though, not the prizes.
65
What I enjoy most is creating pictures.
66
It makes me so happy.
67
6. Well, I'm retired now and I have a lot of free time.
68
I worked for the same company for over 30 years, mostly in the same little office.
69
I worked long hours, and when I came home from work I was too tired to do anything but read the newspaper.
70
Now it's different.
71
I spend almost all my free time outdoors playing golf.
72
I guess what I love best is looking at the beautiful blue sky.

Listening 3 1.
122
A few months ago I moved to this cute little house out in the country.
123
Before I moved all I did was sit in cafes and read or surf the internet.
124
Boring!
125
Now I want to spend all my free time outside enjoying nature.
126
The only problem is I'm not in very good shape, so I don't like doing any sports or anything that involves a lot of exercise.
127
I tried hiking once, but I fell down a hill and hurt my leg.
128
Don't get me wrong, I love the outdoors, but what I really want is something I can do quietly in nature.
129
I live in a big city, so I love being around lots of people.
130
My brother is completely the opposite it.
131
Last weekend, he took me to the country to go bird watching.
132
I was so bored the whole time.
133
I like talking to people and doing creative things.
134
I'd just love to get all my friends together at my apartment in the city and do something.
135
We could have a dinner party maybe, or we could bring over some guitars and drums and stuff like that and sing and dance.
136
3. Exercise is really important to me.
137
I like doing things where I keep active, things that are good for my health.
138
My roommate isn't like that at all, though.
139
He wakes up and surfs the internet for hours.
140
Then he plays his guitar in his room all afternoon.
141
Yuck.
142
I just hate sitting around indoors.
143
I especially hate surfing the internet.
144
I want to meet other people.
145
I also want to get out and visit new places, like out in the country, where you can see some real nature.
146
4. I don't really like going to parties or working out at the gym all the time.
147
I don't like hiking around in nature either.
148
I like to do things that develop my mind or things that teach me about other countries and places.
149
What I really love is history.
150
To me, a good history book is a lot more exciting than a fancy dinner party
151
or some concert or a baseball game.
152
And there's a lot of great historical information on the internet, too.
153
I'm not one of those people who sit at home and collect stamps.
154
For me, learning something new is a real adventure.

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.
