Pratique du Shadowing: They Caught Him Cheating. So He Responded by Making History. - Apprendre l'anglais à l'oral avec la vidéo
Création de la leçon...
1
Two months ago, when Rubik's Cube World Champion Yi Hang Wang was first accused of blatantly cheating in a match against his rival,
2
Xuan Yigong, we had no idea of the disaster this situation would turn into.
3
Yi Hang was caught attempting to start his solves before starting the timer sliding his wrist forward in a way
4
that is highly illegal and gave him an unfair advantage against Xuanyi.
5
When absolutely nothing was done to stop him from doing this, Xuanyi's mom decided to take matters into her own hands,
6
going on to publicly call out world champion Yi Heng Wang for cheating.
7
At this point, outrage had already erupted all over the internet, and many wanted Yi Hang completely banned from competition as a whole.
8
But it's safe to say that Xuanyi's mom had no idea of what she had just started.
9
Because it was then that what began with tears
10
and some not -so -kind words exploded into an unhinged personal attack from Yi Hang's mom.
11
I know I can never be the kind of person you are.
12
You don't care about your own kids' mental and physical health.
13
goals.
14
Reading through this post, the community was left in utter shock over just how immature her response was, all of which targeted Xuanyi's mom on a very personal level.
15
The situation was getting out of hand quickly, and things were not at all aided by what she said
16
to end her reign completely crossing the line from adult banter to blatantly insulting a nine -year -old child.
17
Compared to Yi Han, Xuanyi doesn't have a strong enough heart to handle even a little setback.
18
Unknowingly, Yi Heng's mom had just made a grave mistake, one she would end up paying for it with an absolutely humiliating reality check.
19
Xuanyi, with his rival Yi Heng Wang sitting right next to him,
20
decided to pull off what would go down as one of the most demoralizing performances in speedcubing history.
21
Xuanyi strung together five nearly perfect solves, not only destroying Yi Heng in the round, but breaking the very record he had been chasing for years now.
22
ever sub 3 second urbix skill solve with a 2 .80 on the final solve of his app.
23
This was the most satisfying, perfect revenge he could possibly get on Yi -Hang and his mom.
24
And on top of this, the world still hadn't forgotten about her son's cheating allegations.
25
In fact, more people than ever continued in their hope that Yi -Hang would be banned from cubing as a whole.
26
How does one even respond in a situation like this?
27
Do you remove yourself from competition entirely?
28
Do you accept defeat and walk away after having finally lived long enough to see yourself become the villain?
29
Well...
30
If you're Yi Hang Wang, you do none of these things.
31
Instead, you walk into a competition on a random Wednesday
32
and silence all of your haters with a world record that doesn't even look.
33
I'm living it now and I still don't believe it.
34
Directly following the insanity we witnessed the month prior,
35
Xuanyi and Yee Hang were set to face off against one another in a competition scheduled for June 17th, 2026.
36
But the day of the competition arrived and Xuanyi didn't show up.
37
disappointing to hear.
38
And it definitely was, until Yi -Hang showed up the day of the competition, and dropped a result so absurd people literally thought it was fake.
39
Apparently, Yi -Hang didn't just take back the number one in the world spot from Xuan Yi.
40
He did it by setting a record that is currently being labeled as unbeatable.
41
An average of five solves of 3 .51. to be real.
42
It would be the biggest drop the world record had seen in nine years, and one that quite frankly, people didn't want to believe had actually happened.
43
Because on the surface, it didn't seem possible.
44
Of Yi Hang's last 100 solves leading into this competition, just two of them were faster than 3 .51.
45
You can start to see why an average of five solves at this speed is a little bit unbelievable.
46
Add on Yi Hang's not so great reputation and the thousands of controversies CC's been involved in, and you get a suspicious look to say the very least.
47
So naturally, people quickly started looking for footage of this apparent world record.
48
To which they were met with virtually nothing. But how?
49
This was unheard of.
50
The last time a world record didn't have footage? was 2008.
51
The cheating allegations were building, Yi -Hang's solves were already untrustworthy, and now he's dropping the biggest world record in nearly a decade.
52
without any footage to show for it.
53
All we had was his fifth and final solve in isolation, without the first four.
54
Things get even worse when you realize that Xuanyi's last world record had 4K footage from multiple different angles.
55
Whereas this one had next to nothing.
56
You could blame this on the guy who stole Yi -Hang's ID and impersonated him on the internet for clout, therefore losing his permission to record all of the kid's solves, but that's up to you.
57
All I know is that here on the StuCube YouTube channel, we do things a little bit differently.
58
I don't ask for any of your personal information.
59
I just ask for your subscription to my cause.
60
Thank you.
61
But the common opinion that began to form around the legitimacy of this record was that, when most of the videos aren't shown, he's usually sliding.
62
And knowing Yi Hang's history, This was definitely fair to say.
63
Given everything Yi Heng has done, it's almost a bit crazy to not doubt this average.
64
But just 24 hours later, right as suspicion was reaching its peak, we finally got our hands on what seems to be the only existing video of these songs.
65
There was finally proof that this average happened, but not only that, Upon a closer look,
66
Yi -hang had completely revamped his solving style so that there was nothing illegal about his cube pickups at all.
67
It was a miracle.
68
Yi Hang was somehow even faster than he was when he was cheating.
69
With unbelievable times of 3 .39, 3 .41, and this 3 .45 to end it,
70
Yi Hang had officially taken back the spot of number one in the world from Xuanyi.
71
But there's a reason this is possibly the biggest reaction we've seen from Yi Hang in his entire career.
72
Because 3 .51 is on a level of world record
73
that leaves us with a question we haven't had to ask for a very, very long time.
74
Is it even beatable?
75
On the surface, of course it is.
76
If Yi Hang did it once, he can do it again, right?
77
Well, not so fast, because this isn't just the largest drop the world record has seen in nine years.
78
It's also the biggest drop Yi Hang's career has seen since his very first world record.
79
And it's not even close.
80
Yi Hang is an all -time great, but 351 is absurdly sub 3 .51 proves this.
81
Okay, so Yi Hang might take a little while to break this one himself, but good thing Xuanyi exists, right?
82
After all, he's humbled Yi Hang multiple times, and is the only person in the world remotely close to his speed.
83
Well, here's the thing: The stats say that Xuanyi doesn't currently have the low -end capability to do it.
84
Not only has Xuanyi never gotten more than one sub 3 .51 second solve in an average, But even if we look at a much larger sample size,
85
Xuanyi has 15 solves in his career that are faster than this world record average.
86
15 individual solves under 3 .51.
87
Yihan! has 35.
88
This doesn't make Yi Hang the better solver, it just means that his ceiling is objectively higher.
89
This average is an example of that.
90
A peak that Xuanyi might not physically be able to reach yet.
91
Xuanyi's greatest skill is his consistency, and because of it he's won many of their head -to -heads.
92
But considering how already ahead of its time Xuanyi's last world record was,
93
There's an argument to be made that Gehang's 3 .51 is virtually untouchable in 2026.
94
In case you still don't believe me, Yihan currently has 13 sub -4 averages.
95
Xuanyi has 3.
96
And nobody else on Earth even has a single one.
97
And keep in mind, all of this is being done with his career quite literally hanging in the balance.
98
We don't know if or when Yi Hang will be banned, and no official statement on the matter has been made.
99
So congratulations to Yi Hang on a legitimate, completely fair world record.
100
And who knows?
101
Maybe next time this world record is broken, it's done by someone who is currently six years old.
102
In fact, they're probably already faster than you right now.
103
Even though they probably couldn't break the world record right now, they're still better than you.
104
That just it never gets old, honestly, insulting you.
105
Never gets old.
106
But besides that, That's about it.
107
See ya.

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.
