14
Stubborn?
15
Well, it is her home.
16
Yes, and it's been her home for a long time, I know.
17
But nobody else refused to move.
18
You see, we're going to build 400 apartments in that area.
19
We expect to have about 1 ,200 people living there when the project is finished.
20
You have to balance that against one person and a pack of dogs.
21
But Mrs. Hamilton was born in that house, and she is trying to give a home to the homeless dogs of this city. Of course.
22
But we have promised to relocate her and one of her dogs to a modern apartment in a senior citizens project.
23
The other dogs will go to the ASPCA.
24
So, what happens next?
25
We can't wait forever.
26
We want the ASPCA to take all the dogs first.

28
We have to do something soon.
29
Thank you, Ms. Martinez.

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?
שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
