1
In order to find out what's really on your mind, we suggest one of the great exercises of modern psychology,
2
what is known as a sentence completion test.
3
The test involves looking at a series of unfinished sentences or sentence stubs and completing them as fast as possible,
4
letting whatever first comes into one's mind to rise to the surface, thereby giving one chance to discover what one deep down,
5
unconsciously, really feels, fears, wants, regrets or a crossabout.
6
We're going to flash up some of these sentences on the screen in a second.
7
As they show up, look at them for an instant and then say the very first thing that comes into the mind,
8
however shocking, direct or emotional it happens to be.
9
The The The The
10
The The
11
The The Thank you.
12
Thank you.
13
Now you're done, reflect on what ways your answers might be slightly different to what you would ordinarily have understood about yourself.

शैडोइंग तकनीक क्या है?

शैडोइंग (Shadowing) एक विज्ञान-समर्थित भाषा सीखने की तकनीक है जो मूल रूप से पेशेवर दुभाषिया प्रशिक्षण के लिए विकसित की गई थी। विधि सरल लेकिन शक्तिशाली है: आप मूल अंग्रेज़ी ऑडियो सुनते हैं और तुरंत इसे ज़ोर से दोहराते हैं — जैसे वक्ता की छाया 1-2 सेकंड की देरी से। शोध से पता चलता है कि यह उच्चारण सटीकता, स्वर, लय, जुड़ी हुई ध्वनियाँ, सुनने की समझ और बोलने की प्रवाहशीलता में काफ़ी सुधार करता है।
