All right class, tomorrow is the graduation final exam to graduate, so if you don't pass your exam, you fail, and you don't get your diploma, and you can't go to college!
2
What, graduate?
3
What grade are we in?
4
We're still learning our colors and our fruits.
5
Dude, that's just a poster to remind us.
6
Sometimes I forget.
7
You're a fruit, Cody.
8
Well, yes I am.
9
Now look, Cody, we're 17, you're 18.
10
Jeffy's 21.
11
We're all adults.
12
Wait a minute.
13
Is this a special needs class?
14
Have I always been in special needs classes?
15
All right, Klaus, I just want to warn you that this final exam is going to be really hard.
16
I'm talking really hard.
17
I'm talking really hard.
18
I'm talking really hard.
19
Yeah, I have a question.
20
Is it going to be really hard?
21
Thank you for asking, Cody.
22
Yes, it's going to be really hard.
23
Let me give you an example.
24
You need to know geometry, physics, trigonometry, quantum mechanics.
25
You need to be able to list all the presidents in order, but by the middle name.
26
You need to be able to name all the planets.
27
You need to know the planet's distance from Earth in inches.
28
You also need to draw a periodic table with all the elements and the scientific name.
29
And if you're off by one letter, you fail!
30
You also need to draw a map of the entire globe with all the countries and their capitals.
31
And you also need to know each country's flag, okay?
32
So make sure you go home and study, and if not, you fail!
33
Well, that sounds easy.
34
What do you mean we have to know every country's flags?
35
How many countries are there?
36
Like seven?
37
195. There's 195 countries?
38
Yeah.
39
I thought we were the only country with a flag.
40
They all have flags.
41
What do they look like?
42
That's so many.
43
Some of them have to look similar.
44
Well, probably a little bit.
45
And all the countries have food and money?
46
Well, some more than others, but yeah.
47
Dude, it's going to take like 12 years to learn all this stuff.
48
Well, yeah, that's about how long school is.
49
But they said it was going to be easy.
50
They want us to learn 12 years of school in one night.
51
Well, no, you're supposed to learn it in the 12 years we've been in school.
52
Well, that's so stupid.
53
And what is a periodic table?
54
Like, how many tables do I got to build?
55
What?
56
Like, because it's like, it's a periodic table.
57
So it's a table from each period.
58
The Victorian period, the Roman period.
59
No, no, no. It's not historical periods.
60
It's like elements.
61
He said a periodic table.
62
So, you know how a teacher says, I'll check on you periodically.
63
So every once in a while.
64
So we have to build a table from each period.
65
No, no, it's like the period.
66
We didn't even learn Woodshop.
67
We're not building tables.
68
He said a periodic table.
69
It's a periodic table of elements.
70
So I gotta build a table out of wood and out of steel.
71
No, no, it's like a list It's like a list of elements.
72
It's like a range.
73
He didn't say a list.
74
He said a table.
75
There's literally a picture of it right there in that door That's a bar graph.
76
It's not a bar graph.
77
That's not what a bar graph looks like.
78
That's a chart It is kind of a chart, but it's called a table Where are the chairs, dude?
79
That's not a table.
80
That's a chart.
81
It's not a - listen I can't teach you chemistry right now.
82
This is a desk kind of table Okay, I'm glad you know what tables look like.
83
That's great Damn, that's not a f*ing table, that's a chart.
84
What the hell is he talking about?
85
He called that a chart of elements, not a table of elements.
86
A table of elements would be a table with elements spread out.
87
Listen, that's, that's, okay.
88
Take it up, take it up with science, okay?
89
I didn't make the f*ing thing.
90
Okay, so can you come over to my house and teach me what a table is?
91
I think you know what a table is.
92
I think that's the one thing you have covered.
93
But you're saying that is a table.
94
Okay, I will come over and try as best I can to teach you.
95
Please, because I want to graduate.
96
Yes.
97
I don't think you're going to, and I honestly don't think you deserve to.
98
Because you think that's a table?
99
It's what it's called!
100
It's what it says!
101
It doesn't look like it, though!
102
I don't care, that's what it's called!
103
You obviously gotta teach us, we're damn confused!
104
Okay, I will try!
105
Okay.
106
Let's go to my house.
107
Please!
108
Okay, alright.
109
Okay, guys, I printed out a list of every country in the world's flag.
110
I printed out the periodic table of elements and every president.
111
Okay, so let's just clarify what a table is, Cody.
112
Joseph, grab a table.
113
I know what a table is.
114
Okay, so we print out a picture of a real table.
115
Yeah, authentic table.
116
2000s model.
117
Okay, that is a table.
118
This is the periodic table of elements.
119
Okay, let me just break it down.
120
Maybe from the side, it could look like a bed.
121
A little bit.
122
This is the bed frame.
123
That's the pillow.
124
That's the sheets.
125
It doesn't matter what it looks like.
126
It's a table of elements.
127
It's not a table because where would the chairs go?
128
It's so uneven.
129
It's weird.
130
Yeah, horrible design.
131
It doesn't need chairs.
132
It's a table.
133
How are you going to eat that?
134
I think it's a pool.
135
Right.
136
This is the water.
137
No. You dive into it.
138
No, it's none of that.
139
You don't do any of that.
140
You read it and you look at the elements.
141
That's what it's for.
142
You know what?
143
You read a chart.
144
You don't read a table.
145
You read a chart.
146
It should be the periodic chart of elements.
147
Yeah, they could have called it that, but they didn't.
148
They called it a table.
149
Side by side, which one wins best table?
150
Oh, this one, definitely.
151
It doesn't matter which one looks more like a table.
152
This one is called a table of elements.
153
Okay, and what are all these letters?
154
They're the elements.
155
Okay, okay.
156
Hydrogen starts with an H.
157

260
What about this guy?

286
They're different people with similar names.
287
They just allow that to yeah But I thought maybe that you only supposed to have two terms.
288
It was rigged.
289
What was rigged?
290
The voting.

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.
