Creazione lezione...
1
Is love more important than material things?
2
Yes.
3
Stephanie?
4
The machine is detecting some deception.
5
Stephanie, you are lying.
6
Stephanie needs to be on the lie detector test.
7
Stephanie is telling the truth.
8
Dakota, do you know why you're here today? For press?
9
Does my hair still look good?
10
Thank you so much.
11
Does that feel okay?
12
This feels really good.
13
Feels horrible.
14
I'm going to start by asking a few questions to get a baseline for the machine.
15
Please answer honestly.
16
Yes, ma'am.
17
Is your name Dakota Maie Johnson?
18
Yes.
19
Were you born on October 4th?
20
Yes, yes.
21
That's my birthday.
22
Are you ready to take another lie detector test?
23
Yes.
24
Let's start with your career.
25
Your family has been called Hollywood royalty.
26
Do you think you'd make a good royal?
27
Yeah, I probably would, yeah.
28
Is that why you named your production company Tea Time Pictures?
29
No. Why did you name it Tea Time Pictures?
30
Because I like tea and it's nice to talk about things and think about things during tea time.
31
And that's what Ro and I do.
32
That sounds lovely.
33
Speaking of royals, both you and the late Queen Elizabeth II are big fans of daily baths.
34
Yes.
35
Do you think a bath is the cure to all unhappiness?
36
I wish.
37
That would be so nice.
38
Queen Elizabeth reportedly had a staff member who would measure her bath temperature with a thermometer before she went in.
39
Have you ever had someone do that for you?
40
No. Will you consider doing it now?
41
Yeah, I would love that.
42
You've also talked about how you claim to need at least 10 hours of sleep every night.
43
How many hours did you sleep last night?
44
11. But I don't feel well.
45
So that's why.
46
That's understandable.
47
You said you're not functional without 10 hours.
48
Do you think 10 hours of sleep is reasonable advice for the average person?
49
I feel like people should sleep however much or little they want to.
50
You appeared in the movie The Social Network, but rarely used social media.
51
Did the movie scare you from having an online presence?
52
No. The machine is detecting some deception.
53
Okay.
54
I don't feel like the social network made me scared of social media, no. Social media makes me scared of social media.
55
Since you claim to not be online, let's test if you know these online people.
56
Is that a person on the TV show?
57
Oh, is it Call Her Daddy?
58
No. Do you know who this is?
59
Are they not the same person?
60
That's Call Her Daddy, Alex Cooper.
61
This is, okay, okay, who's this?
62
That's Alex Earl.
63
They're both named Alex?
64
And what are they, they both do podcasts?
65
Are they friends?
66
I don't know.
67
Are they enemies?
68
I don't know.
69
Is there beef? Could be.
70
Oh, shit. About their podcast?
71
Do they talk about the same things?
72
What's going on?
73
Should I be friends with them?
74
If you would like to be.
75
They look like nice people.
76
Am I lying?
77
Oh, the wires are crossed.
78
It's because it's picking up me internally.
79
Do you have any thoughts on Mark Zuckerberg's recent makeover?
80
Has he not always looked like this?
81
I don't really have an opinion about Mark Zuckerberg's wardrobe.
82
I kind of like his glasses.
83
They're kind of goofy.
84
They make him look sweet, which is, I think, nice for him.
85
Because historically, you know.
86
What does his shirt say?
87
All Zuck or all nothing?
88
All Zuck.
89
Wow.
90
Wow.
91
Poor guy.
92
Someone's like, yeah, wear that.
93
You're going to be starring in Very, which is based on a best-selling book by Colleen Hoover.
94
Tell us the truth.
95
Have you read it?
96
Yes.
97
I liked the book.
98
I mean, I'm in it.
99
I'm in the movie.
100
Does it still count if you listen to the audiobook?
101
Yeah.
102
Did you read all the books for Fifty Shades of Grey?
103
Yeah.
104
Then name them all.
105
Oh, God.
106
And Fifty Shades of Grey.
107
And the last one is Fifty Shades Freed.
108
And the middle one is...
109
It's in my brain.
110
Fifty Shades Darker.
111
Did your work on Fifty Shades of Grey inspire you to start your sexual wellness company, Maud?
112
Maybe a little bit.
113
Yeah.
114
I didn't start the company, though.
115
I just work with them and with Ebba.
116
This person plays one of your love interests in materialists.
117
Is he more of a zaddy than this love interest?
118
A what?
119
Zaddy.
120
Zaddy.
121
Z-A-D-D-Y?
122
What does that mean?
123
Who's.. who's.. who did that?
124
What does the Z part stand for?
125
Who's the hotter daddy?
126
Is that what you're saying?
127
Both of them?
128
On a scale of 1 to 10, how much of a zaddy are they?
129
I'm gonna give them both a solid seven.
130
Eight?
131
An eight.
132
Is that better?
133
Okay.
134
These photos are so crazy next to each other though.
135
Your character in the movie is a matchmaker.
136
Have you ever matched people up in real life?
137
Not intentionally.
138
Like I thought people might like each other and it turns out they have.
139
But I've never been like, oh, you guys need to meet.
140
So you've never put in the work to match your friends up?
141
No, no, no, no. I'm too busy.
142
Let's move on to your life.
143
You and this friend once had a band called Folky Porn.
144
Yeah.
145
Would you care to explain this name?
146
We used to sing like folk songs with my brother who would play guitar
147
and we'd do like three part harmonies on like Hank Williams songs and we just called it Folky Porn.
148
I don't know why.
149
Is it true that you met Riley in the parking lot of an In-N-Out burger?
150
Yeah, that is true.
151
Is that a common meeting place for Hollywood kids to meet?
152
I don't know.
153
I guess no. How could I lie about that?
154
She's telling the truth.
155
Now.
156
Fuck yeah.
157
Would you say you're a ride-or-die friend to Riley?
158
Yes.
159
If she asked you to lie about where she was last night, would you do it?
160
Yes.
161
Even to the police?
162
Yeah.
163
She's telling the truth.
164
Speaking of friendship, you once sent a man who broke your friend's heart a gallon of gorilla shit.
165
Can you confirm or deny that this happened?
166
I mean, there's no way that he would watch this, so yes, I did do that.
167
And it's been quite a while.
168
It's been some years.
169
How would one order something like that, asking for a friend?
170
Shitsenders.com.
171
You can order any kind, any size.
172
Truthful.
173
You've also mentioned that you know where to order pubic craps online.
174
Have you ever ordered them?
175
No. Good lord.
176
I'm not a monster.
177
Do you have the website bookmarked just in case?
178
No. I was just about to say something, but then that person would find out about that, and I'm not going there.
179
Fine.
180
The last time you took this test, you said you would never close the gap in your teeth.
181
I did?
182
Oh, that's so sad.
183
Do you mind looking at this camera and giving it a smile?
184
Be honest, did it really close on its own?
185
Yes, it did.
186
Stephanie, is that true?
187
Inconclusive.
188
Come on Stephanie.
189
Oh, oh my god.
190
Look at it.
191
Because of that big lie you told a couple of lies ago.
192
The machine doesn't know what to do.
193
No, it closed on its own.
194
I had one of those wires since I was a little kid and then I took it off
195
because I wasn't a little kid anymore.
196
And then it closed.
197
Would you say you take good care of your teeth?
198
Yeah.
199
Do you floss every day?
200
Yeah.
201
Brush twice a day?
202
Yeah.
203
I feel really proud of that.
204
You should.
205
Not many people do.
206
You've often called yourself a private person.
207
Would you still consider yourself one?
208
Mm-hmm.
209
Then why did you decide to do another lie detector test with us?
210
Because I want to see how good I am at lying.
211
That's the truth.
212
Now, pop culture.
213
Oh, oh God.
214
Dakota, you said in 2017 that you grew up having a vast knowledge of music.
215
Do you still feel that way?
216
I think I'm okay.
217
Mind if we test that knowledge?
218
Sure.
219
Do you know what sapphic pop is?
220
Sapphic pop?
221
Um, like, Claro?
222
Is that sapphic pop?
223
Or like, is that like, is it like, like, girly pop?
224
Lesbian pop?
225
What is it?
226
Do you know what it is?
227
You can't ask the question if you don't know what it is.
228
Oh my god.
229
Does the name Kaylee Rose Amstutz mean anything to you?
230
That is Chapel Rhone's real name.
231
Motherfucker.
232
There she is.
233
At the Met Gala.
234
I did, I did nail that one.
235
Who is this person?
236
This is Tyla.
237
She's got great dance moves.
238
She does.
239
And is a cutie pie.
240
She is.
241
What about this person?
242
That's a crazy outfit.
243
This is Lalisa from Blackpink.
244
Very good.
245
Are you guys shocked?
246
Because I am.
247
Next.
248
Bring it on.
249
You've been known to attend a few music festivals.
250
Which would you say is better, Glastonbury or Coachella?
251
Glastonbury.
252
Is that because the British do it better?
253
Yeah, in that regard.
254
Would you have gone to Fyre Festival if it happened?
255
I was trying to remember what that was.
256
The scam one, right?
257
No, absolutely not.
258
That sounds like Coachella, but worse.
259
You gave Architectural Digest a tour of your home, and it has since gone viral.
260
Were you surprised that your green kitchen became so popular?
261
Yeah, sure was.
262
Would you consider yourself a trendsetter?
263
Green kitchens are quite popular now.
264
I don't know if I would consider myself a trendsetter.
265
Do you have any other decor hot takes?
266
Decor hot takes.
267
For example, are you a fan of matching furniture sets?
268
Depends on who made the furniture set.
269
What about karate chopped pillows?
270
Sure, but like, why?
271
You know?
272
Are accent walls a good look?
273
No. Never?
274
No. Do you think open floor plans are overrated?
275
No. Have you ever lied about liking a friend's decor when you really didn't?
276
Yeah.
277
You have to.
278
She's being truthful.
279
You can't go in and be like, Ugh, Leslie, what did you do?
280
You have to go, Look what you did.
281
Amazing.
282
Like that.
283
Does lying come easy to you?
284
I don't know. Does it?
285
I'm sorry, what was that?
286
Stephanie's freaking out.
287
I'm a psychopath.
288
Okay, final question.
289
Did you lie at any point during this lie detector test and we didn't catch you?
290
I sure did.
291
Care to let us know which questions you lied about?
292
Never.
293
I'll never tell.
294
And you know what?
295
I lied on the first one too.
296
She's telling the truth.

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.
