209
Thanks.

Hmm, there are so many laptops to choose from.
211
Let's ask somebody to help us.
212
Okay, shall we get one of the shop assistants?
213
There's one over there.
214
I'll go and ask him.
215
Excuse me, could you help us? Of course!
216
I see you're looking for a laptop.
217
Can you tell me what you'll be using it for?
218

219
It's old, and it won't last much longer.
220
Right.
221
How about looking at some of these ones?

Hmm, we also want to take it with us when we travel, and those ones look pretty heavy.
223
Would you get one down so we can try carrying it?
224
Oh, this one's quite heavy.
225
Shall I show you some of the lighter models?
226
Good afternoon, sir.
227
May I help you?

I'd like to check in, please.

I'm here for the conference on technology in schools.
231
Certainly, sir.
232
Could you complete this form, please? Of course.
233
Is my room ready?
234
No, I'm afraid not.
235
It should be ready at half past two.
236
Oh, right.
237
Well, I've got quite a lot of bags.
238
That's no problem.
239
Why don't you leave them in the luggage room?
240
Shall I ask the porter to take them there for you?
241
Yes, thanks.
242
Uh, I've parked my car in the street outside the back entrance of the hotel. Is that okay?
243
I'm sorry, sir.
244
You can't park there.
245
It's against the fire regulations.
246
You want not to block the access to the hotel.
247
There's a car park for guests at the side of the hotel.
248
Oh.
249
Do you think I ought to move it along a bit?
250
Well, that's a no -parking area, so perhaps you'd better put it straight in the car park.
251
Okay, I'll go and do that now.

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.
