A bit of a challenge.
11
Well, here's a suggestion for you.
12
I was planning to take my bike down to the south coast to see a veteran car race.
13
Why don't you come with me?
14
On your motorbike?
15
I've never been a passenger on a motorbike in my life.
16
And I haven't got a helmet or anything.
17
That's okay.
18
I've got a spare one and some leathers you could borrow.
19
It'd be fun.
20
Well, I did say I wanted something challenging, I suppose.
21
Let's go for it.
22
Then when we get back, I'll make something special for dinner.
23
I've got a great new Thai recipe.
24
Oh, I think you'll be tired.
25
Why don't we just eat out?
26
No, it'll be fine.
27
The kids are going out to a gig.
28
Their friend's band is playing at the college club this weekend.
29
So we can just flake out in front of the telly with a takeaway if we're really that worn out.
30
Sounds good to me.

Extract 2 You'll hear two people discussing an opinion poll.
56
Now look at questions 3 and 4.
57
I got stopped in the street and asked some questions by some man doing an opinion poll today. Did you?
58
Was it about what you watched on TV last night?
59
I got asked about that by someone in the street a few days ago.
60
Actually, he wanted to know what I felt about the new shopping centre they're thinking about building near the railway station,
61
whether I felt it would solve some of the town's problems or actually just cause more.
62
Well, you've certainly got strong opinions about that.
63
You're always telling me what a rubbish idea you think it is.
64
True, and I told him what I thought.
65
But I don't think he really had any interest in what I had to say.
66
I got the feeling the authorities just want to be able to tick a few boxes, saying that consultation with residents has taken place.
67
I don't think he wrote down my answers to any of his questions.
68
But at least it served the useful purpose of firing me up about it again.
69
I'm going to sit down and write a letter to the local paper now.

83
Extract 3.
84
You'll hear two people talking about a website.
85
Now look at questions 5 and 6.
86
of the country with lots of pages relating to its history, landscape, wildlife, local businesses, study opportunities here, all that sort of thing.
87
Sounds interesting, but I'm not sure how I can help.
88
I'm pretty new to the area and don't know much about it.
89
Well, you do know a lot about websites.
90
I wondered if you could take a look at what's online already and tell me how user -friendly it is, that sort of thing.
91
My idea is that it should be totally straightforward to navigate.
92
Sounds interesting, certainly.
93
But when do you want it done for?
94
I'm pretty busy at the moment.
95
It's not too urgent, in fact.
96
OK, then.
97
Email me the URL and I'll do what I can.
98
My laptop's been playing up a bit recently, but hopefully it won't let me down.
99
Thanks.
100
Hi, Mel.
101
I'm glad I bumped into you.
102
I've been wanting to ask you a favour.
103
Right.
104
As you know, I've been working on this website idea of mine.
105
It's a portal for people interested in this part of the country with lots of pages relating to its history.
106
Landscape, wildlife, local businesses, study opportunities here.
107
All that sort of thing.
108
Sounds interesting, but I'm not sure how I can help.
109

Now turn to part two.

Informazioni su questa lezione

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
