1
What a beautiful evening.
2
They're here again.
3
Every day, I notice this grandma and grandpa.
4
They always sit on the same bench.
5
They quietly watch everyone in the park, but they never seem to smile.
6
I wonder why they look so lonely.
7
Maybe I should talk to them today.
8
Excuse me, grandma.
9
Grandpa.
10
Yes, dear?
11
May I sit with you? Of course.
12
Please sit down.
13
Thank you.
14
I don't think we've met before.
15
My name is Lina.
16
I live just a few streets from this park.
17
Nice to meet you, Lina.
18
Nice to meet you, too.
19
This park is very beautiful.
20
Yes, it is.
21
That's why we like coming here every evening.
22
I see you here almost every day.
23
Really?
24
Every time I walk home from college, I notice both of you sitting on this bench.
25
We didn't know someone noticed us.
26
I hope you don't mind me asking.
27
Not at all, dear.
28
May I ask you something? Of course.
29
You both always look so quiet.
30
Is everything okay?
31
Maybe I ask something too personal.
32
No, dear.
33
It's okay.
34
You asked because you were concerned.
35
That means a lot to us.
36
I just wanted to make sure you were both okay.
37
Thank you, Lena.
38
Not many people stop to ask how we're feeling.
39
Sometimes a simple conversation can make someone's day better.
40
You're a very kind girl.
41
Would you like to hear our story?
42
Yes.
43
I'd be happy to listen.
44
Lena, we have only one son.
45
Really?
46
Yes.
47
A few years ago, he moved to Canada for his job.
48
We are very proud of him.
49
He works hard and calls us whenever he can.
50
That must make you happy.
51
It does.
52
But after he moved away, our home became very quiet.
53
We don't blame him.
54
He is working hard to build his future.
55
Every evening we come to this park.
56
Why do you come here every day?
57
When we see children laughing and families spending time together we feel a little less lonely.
58
It reminds us of the days when our son was young.
59
You miss him very much, don't you?
60
Every single day.
61
A phone call brings us happiness, but it can never replace a warm hug.
62
I'm so glad I came and talked to both of you today, and we're happy that you did, dear.
63
Thank you for listening to us.
64
sometimes people don't need advice they just need someone who is willing to listen
65
grandma grandpa yes dear thank you for sharing your story with
66
me thank you for listening i have an idea what is
67
it would you both like to come to my house this evening Your house?
68
Yes.
69
My parents would be very happy to meet you.
70
We can have tea together and spend some time talking.
71
Are you sure we won't disturb your family?
72
Not at all.
73
My parents always say that guests are a blessing.
74
That's very kind of you, Lena.
75
We'd love to come.
76
Welcome.
77
Please come in.
78
Thank you.
79
It's a pleasure to meet you both.
80
It has been a long time since we spent an evening like this.
81
Your family has made us feel so welcome.
82
I'm really happy you came.
83
Lina, yes, Grandma?
84
Thank you for inviting us today.
85
We haven't smiled and laughed like this in a long time.

90
every evening If I have time after college, I'll come and spend some time with you.
91
Really? Of course.
92
We can sit in the park, have tea, or just talk together.
93
That would make us very happy.
94
Today, we thought we were meeting a stranger.
95
But we are leaving with a granddaughter.
96
I feel so lucky.
97
Come here, dear.
98

101
hi lena you're home how was college today hi mom it was good but it was a very busy day
102
You look tired.
103
I am.
104
We had classes, assignments, and a presentation today.
105
You've been working hard lately.
106
Yes.
107
It feels like every day is the same.
108
Then maybe you need a short break.
109
I was thinking the same thing.
110
Do you have anything in mind?
111
Yes.
112
I'd really like to visit Uncle's Farm this weekend.
113
Uncle's Farm?
114
That's a wonderful idea.
115
I haven't been there for a long time.
116
Your uncle will be very happy to see you.
117
I miss the fresh air, the green fields, and the peaceful environment.
118
Life on a farm is very different from city life.
119
That's exactly why I want to go.
120
I just want to relax and spend a day close to nature.
121
I think it's a great idea.
122
Nature has a way of refreshing both the mind and the heart.
123
I'll call uncle and ask if I can visit tomorrow.
124
I'm sure he'll say yes.
125
I hope so.
126
I can't wait to see the farm again.
127
I'm sure you'll have a wonderful day and learn many new things.
128
Thank you, Mom.
129
I already feel excited.
130
Then get some rest tonight.
131
Tomorrow will be a special day.
132
I will.
133
Good night, Mom.
134
Good night, Lina.
135
Lina, welcome to the farm.
136
Hi, Uncle.
137
It's so nice to see you.
138
It's wonderful to see you, too.
139
How was your journey?
140
It was great.
141
The weather was pleasant, and I enjoyed the trip.
142
I'm glad to hear that.
143
It's been a long time since your last visit.
144
Yes, I've been busy with college, so I couldn't come earlier.
145
Your mom told me you've been studying very hard.
146
That's true.
147
Classes and assignments have kept me busy.
148
Then you've come to the perfect place.
149
A day on the farm will help you relax.
150
I already feel peaceful.
151
The fresh air here is amazing.
152
That's one of the best things about living on a farm.
153
I can hear birds singing everywhere.
154
Every morning, they become our natural alarm clock.
155
That's much nicer than my phone alarm.
156
I agree.
157
Farm mornings are simple but full of life.
158
Uncle, your farm looks much bigger than I remembered.
159
It has grown over the years.
160
I've added more vegetable fields and fruit trees.
161
I can't wait to see everything.
162
Then let's start with the vegetable garden.
163
I'll show you how we grow fresh vegetables.
164
That sounds exciting.
165
Let's go.
166
Wow, Uncle!
167
There are so many vegetables here.
168
Yes.
169
This is my favorite part of the farm.
170
What vegetables do you grow?
171
we grow tomatoes carrots spinach cucumbers and peppers they all look
172
so fresh that's
173
because we take good care of them every day do you
174
water them every day yes especially during hot weather plants need water sunlight
175
and healthy soil to grow well how long does it take for vegetables to grow.
176
It depends on the vegetable.
177
Some grow in a few weeks, while others take a few months.
178
Farming requires a lot of patience, doesn't it?
179
It certainly does.
180
A farmer can't hurry nature.
181
Have you always enjoyed farming?
182
Since I was young, my father taught me everything I know.
183
So farming has been in our family for many years?
184
That's right.
185
Every season teaches us something new.
186
What's the most important lesson farming has taught you?
187
Hard work, patience, and never giving up.
188
Some seasons are easy and some are difficult, but we always keep going.
189
That's a lesson everyone can use in life.
190
Exactly.
191
Success doesn't happen overnight, whether you're farming or studying.
192
I'll remember that whenever my college work feels difficult.
193
Good.
194
Now, would you like to pick a fresh tomato?
195
Really?
196
I'd love to.
197
Go ahead.
198
Choose the ripest one.
199
This is my first time picking a tomato from a plant.
200
And I hope it won't be your last.
201
Uncle, I can hear the animals from here.
202
Yes.
203
This is one of the busiest parts of the farm.
204
They're all so beautiful.
205
Every animal has an important role on the farm.
206
Which animal do you spend the most time with?
207
The cows.
208
They need regular care every day.
209
What do you feed them?
210
Fresh grass, hay, clean water, and nutritious feed.
211
They look very healthy.
212
Do you take care of them by yourself?
213
Most of the time, yes.
214
Sometimes a few workers help during busy seasons.
215
Do the animals recognize you?
216
I think they do.
217
They see me every day.
218
Farming seems to be a big responsibility.
219
It is.
220
Farmers don't just grow crops, they also care for living animals.
221
I never realized how much work happens behind the scenes.
222
That's why we should never waste food.
223
A lot of hard work goes into producing it.
224
You're right.
225
I'll remember that.
226
Would you like to feed the goats? Can I? Of course.
227
Here are some fresh leaves.
228
They're so gentle.
229
Today, I'm learning so much about farming.
230
And we're not finished yet.
231
There's still more to explore.
232
I can't wait!
233
Wow, Uncle.
234
That's a huge traitor.
235
It certainly is.
236
It's one of the most useful machines on the farm.
237
Have you been using it for a long time?
238
Yes, for several years.
239
It saves a lot of time and effort.
240
What do you use it for?
241
We use it to prepare the fields, carry heavy loads, and help with many farming jobs.
242
So it makes farming easier?
243
Exactly.
244
Years ago, farmers did almost everything by hand.
245
Today, machines help us work more efficiently.
246
That's interesting.
247
I never knew a tractor could do so many things.
248
Every tool has a purpose.
249
The important thing is knowing how to use it properly.
250
Does driving a tractor take practice?
251
Yes, it does.
252
Just like learning to drive any vehicle, you need patience and experience.
253
I guess farming involves both hard work and skill.
254
That's right.
255
People often see the vegetables and fruits, but they don't always see the effort behind them.
256
Can I sit on the tractor for a photo? Of course.
257
Climb up carefully.
258
This is going to be one of my favorite memories.
259
then let's take another picture together great idea
260
now it's time for one more stop before lunch i wonder
261
where we're going next you'll find out in a moment uncle this place is beautiful i've never seen
262
so many mango trees this is our mango orchard Every year it gives us a good harvest.
263
The mangoes look so fresh.
264
They are.
265
Would you like to taste one?
266
I'd love to.
267
Here you are.
268
This one is perfectly ripe.
269
Thank you.
270
Wow, it's so sweet and juicy.
271
Fresh fruit picked straight from the tree always tastes different.
272
I can definitely taste the difference.
273
Do you know why I enjoy growing fruit?
274
Why?
275
Because it teaches patience.
276
A tree doesn't grow overnight.
277
You care for it for years before it gives its best fruit.
278
That's a beautiful lesson.
279
Life is similar.
280
If you work hard, stay patient and keep learning, you'll see good results in time.
281
Uncle, today you've taught me much more than farming.
282
I'm glad.
283
A farm can teach many lessons if we take the time to observe.
284
Thank you for sharing your experience with me.
285
You're always welcome.
286
I don't think I'll ever forget this visit.
287
And you're always welcome to come back whenever you need a peaceful day.
288
I definitely will.
289
I hope you're hungry.
290
After walking around the farm all morning, I definitely am.
291
Then let's eat before the food gets cold.
292
everything looks so fresh
293
and delicious most of these vegetables were picked from the farm
294
this morning really that's amazing fresh ingredients make a big difference in both taste
295
and nutrition I can see that even the colors look brighter.
296
Uncle, what do you enjoy most about being a farmer?
297
That's a good question.
298
I'm curious.
299
I enjoy watching things grow.
300
A tiny seed becomes a healthy plant, and after months of care, it feeds many people.
301
That gives me great satisfaction.
302
I never thought about farming that way.
303
Every profession has its own purpose.
304
Farming is my way of serving others.
305
I respect that even more after today's visit.
306
Thank you, Lina.
307
That means a lot to me.
308
Today I learned that farming isn't just about growing crops.
309
It's about patience, responsibility, caring for nature and helping people.
310
Exactly.
311
I'm happy you understood that.
312
Thank you for taking the time to show me everything and answer all my questions.
313
It was my pleasure.
314
I enjoyed spending the day with you.
315
Finish your lunch.
316
After that, I'll walk you to the gate before you leave.
317
I wish I could stay a little longer.
318
The farm will always be here waiting for you.
319
So, Lina, did you enjoy your day?
320
More than I expected, Uncle.
321
Thank you for everything.
322
I'm glad to hear that.
323
It was nice spending the day with you.
324
I'll never look at fruits and vegetables the same way again.
325
That makes me very happy.
326
Thank you for answering all my questions
327
and showing me every part of the farm you're always welcome
328

350

351

352
Please sit down and make yourself comfortable.
353
Would you like some water or a cup of tea?
354

356

360
I've been very busy these past few months.
361
We really missed you.
362
I missed all of you, too.
363
Aunt, what made you decide to visit today?
364

397
She's working hard, and we're proud of her.
398
Thank you, Dad.
399
Have you all been planning any family trips lately?
400

411
Could you wash these vegetables?

Sure, mom.
413
Lena, do you enjoy cooking?
414
Yes, I love it.
415
I'm still learning, but I like trying new recipes.
416
That's a great skill to have.
417
Mom has been teaching me little by little.
418
She's improving every week.
419
I still make mistakes sometimes.
420
That's completely normal.
421
Everyone learns through practice.
422
I hope I'll be able to cook a full meal one day.
423
I'm sure you will.
424
Something smells delicious.
425
Lunch will be ready soon.
426
Lena is helping me set things out.
427
Is there anything I can help with?
428
Yes, you can set the dining table.
429
That's a job I can definitely do.
430
Dad, don't forget the spoons this time.
431
I only forgot them once.
432
And we're still talking about it.
433
That's what makes family time so special.
434
Simple moments like this become our happiest memories.
435
I couldn't agree more.
436
The food is delicious, as always.
437
Thank you.
438
I'm happy you like it.
439
It's been a long time since we all sat together like this.
440
It makes lunch feel even more special.
441
Lena, how is college going these days?
442
It's going well.
443
This semester is a little more challenging, but I'm learning a lot.
444
Which subject do you enjoy the most?
445
I enjoy communication classes because they help me speak more confidently.
446
I've noticed that too.
447
You're becoming more confident every day.
448
Thank you, Dad.
449
Have you thought about what you'd like to do after college?
450
Yes.
451
I want a job where I can keep learning and meet new people.
452
That's a wonderful goal.
453
We always encourage her to keep improving her skills.
454
That's the best support a family can give.
455
Sometimes I worry about the future.
456
That's natural.
457
Everyone feels that way sometimes.
458
Don't be afraid of new opportunities.
459
Every experience teaches you something valuable.
460
Thank you.
461
Your advice gives me confidence.
462
And we'll always support you.
463
I'm very lucky to have such a caring family.
464
And we're lucky to have you.
465
It's such a peaceful evening.
466
Yes, I like coming here whenever I need some fresh air.
467
I can see why.
468
It's quiet and relaxing.
469
College life can be busy, so places like this help me clear my mind.
470
Do you usually come here alone?
471
Sometimes alone, and sometimes with my friends.
472
That's a good balance.
473
Aunt, can I ask you something?
474
Of course, you can ask me anything.
475
How did you become so confident?
476
I wasn't always confident.
477
Really?
478
When I was your age, I was nervous about many things.
479
That surprises me.
480
Confidence doesn't appear overnight.
481
It grows with experience and practice.
482
I often worry about making mistakes.
483
Making mistakes is part of learning.
484
Don't let them stop you from trying.
485
I'll remember that.
486
Keep learning, keep asking questions, and keep believing in yourself.
487
Thank you, aunt.
488
Talking to you always makes me feel better.
489
I'm always here whenever you need someone to talk to.
490

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.

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.
