Top Red Handed Okay, I have everything I need on this piece of paper.

I must make sure I only look at it when Mrs. Tom isn't looking.

I can do this and get a decent grade.

I need to do well.

Okay, class.

You have one hour to complete this exam.

I'm here to watch over you and in case you need anything.

Remember, you are not allowed to use the bathroom.

You are also not allowed to talk and, of course, no cheating.

Off you go.

Callum Mendez I sincerely hope my eyes mistake me.

Excuse me, Mrs. Tom?

Did I or did I not just see you with a slip of paper covered in small but very helpful notes?

Um, no. Show me your watch, please.

But, but, I'm afraid there was a misunderstanding.

Take off your watch, please, Mr. Mendez.

Okay.

Well, well, well.

I am surprised at you.

I honestly didn't think you would be capable of cheating.

How very disappointing.

Please, can I explain?

Unfortunately, now is not the time,

especially whilst the rest of the class continues their exam.

You can, however, explain to Mr. Boston.

The principal?

Yes, exactly.

Then I'm sure you will also need to explain to your parents.

It may not sound fair,

but you should have thought about that before you brought notes into the exam to cheat.

Off you go now.

Yes, Mrs. Tom.

The rest of you, put your heads back down and work, please.

I'll come clean.

Hey!

Good to see you again!

Why were you off school?

Um, I was sick.

Not good at all.

I could hardly get out of bed.

Oh, wow!

You must have been really sick!

I can't remember the last time I couldn't get out of bed.

What were you sick with?

Um, I think it was something I ate.

I vomited so many times.

Ouch!

That sounds bad!

What do you think you might have eaten?

Well, probably Mom's chicken dinner.

Was your family sick too?

No, they were fine.

Well, that was lucky and incredibly unusual.

Yep, unlucky.

That's me.

Oh, hey Bob!

That was an awesome score you got on Cosmic Roller Coaster the other day!

Hats off to you!

You were so good at that game!

Oh, yeah, thanks.

No worries.

Catch your round!

Sure.

Okay, let me get this straight.

You were too sick to come to school with food poisoning that no one else in your family got,

but you could still play Cosmic Roller Coaster?

All right, John, you got me.

That guy gave me away.

I'll come clean and be totally honest here.

I just wanted some time off school,

and I hadn't revised for the test you all had yesterday.

That's so bad.

You know you'll have to take it anyway.

I know.

And please don't lie to me again.

I want to be able to trust you.

Got it.

I'm so sorry.

Bargaining at the flea market.

Excuse me, how much would you like for this brooch?

Which one, please?

The purple butterfly.

Oh, that one is very popular.

It's $75.

$75?

Oh my goodness.

It's beautiful, but I can't afford that.

My mother will be disappointed, but never mind.

I'll find something at another stall.

Thank you very much for your help.

How much are you willing to pay?

I can't sell myself short.

Oh, I couldn't pay a dollar more than forty dollars.

Okay, that's too low.

I cannot let it go for that.

No problem, I understand.

How about sixty dollars?

Unfortunately, that's still too much.

I could stretch to forty-five dollars.

100

Forty-five dollars?

101

No, no, no. Fifty dollars, that's my final offer.

102

Take it or leave it.

103

That's great.

104

I'll take it.

105

My mother will be delighted.

106

Of course.

107

Pass it here and I'll wrap it up for you.

108

Sure.

109

Here you go.

110

Thank you so much.

111

Here is fifty dollars.

112

Thank you.

113

Enjoy the rest of your day.

114

You too.

115

Can you water my plants while I'm out of town?

116

Hi, Tom.

117

How's it going?

118

Pretty good.

119

Thanks.

120

And you, Betty?

121

I'm excellent.

122

Thank you.

123

Listen, I have a favor to ask.

124

Sure thing, Betty.

125

What's up?

126

I'm away over the weekend,

127

and I wondered if you could water my plants for me.

128

Of course!

129

I'm not going anywhere, and the weather looks glorious,

130

so the plants will be very thirsty.

131

Oh, thank you so much.

132

Are you going anywhere nice?

133

Yes, I'm off to visit my daughter and her family by the coast.

134

They have a beach house,

135

and we always make sure to make lots of lovely memories.

136

Oh, how wonderful!

137

Shall I just show you quickly which ones will need it?

138

Why not?

139

Okay, the flower bed will need a good drink of water each day.

140

As will my hanging baskets.

141

And these petunias in the window box.

142

They always dry out so quickly.

143

And here is my greenhouse where I have some potatoes, peppers, and cucumbers.

144

They need water every other day.

145

That's a very beautiful greenhouse.

146

You've done an amazing job, Betty.

147

Thanks.

148

It's been a lot of hard work.

149

So that's all.

150

I hope it's not too much of a hassle with my request.

151

Oh, not at all.

152

Don't worry about it.

153

I'll write it all down and tie it with watering mine.

154

Great.

155

And my watering can is just over by the outdoor tab.

156

Wonderful!

157

I'm all set.

158

Have a lovely time.

159

Thank you for helping out.

160

If you ever need me to do the same for you, just ask.

161

Great.

162

I'll keep that in mind.

163

At the Boutique Hi there.

164

Can I help you at all?

165

Oh, hi.

166

Thank you for asking.

167

Yes, I'm looking to buy a bag.

168

However, I can't decide.

169

I'd be very grateful if you could show me some models,

170

and their features, to help me make up my mind.

171

Of course.

172

You've asked the perfect person.

173

I love bags.

174

Me too.

175

Okay, what kind of bag are you looking for?

176

I need something for work,

177

but I also want it to be stylish.

178

Absolutely.

179

So it must be big enough to put my laptop in and a few other bits for the office.

180

I also love pockets, so something with lots of extra storage would be great.

181

No problem at all.

182

I guess you'll be carrying a lot,

183

so it needs to be durable.

184

Yes, definitely.

185

Any preference for the color?

186

Not so much, just nothing bland and neutral.

187

I want it to be vibrant and bursting with color.

188

Great!

189

I'd say the best option is this one.

190

It has lots of pockets for your bits and pieces.

191

It's also waterproof, an excellent feature for transporting your laptop.

192

Oh wow, I didn't notice that one before.

193

I love it.

194

It's exactly what I need.

195

Great.

196

Are you sure you don't need to look at any others?

197

Nope, I've fallen in love with this one.

198

Wonderful.

199

Let me take it to the till for you.

200

Asking for a day off.

201

Excuse me, Mr. Yee?

202

Oh, hi there, Finn.

203

Come on in.

204

Thank you, sir.

205

Please, have a seat.

206

What can I do for you today?

207

I need to ask for tomorrow off You know the rules,

208

Finn Employees cannot take days off outside the agreed holiday I know,

209

sir And I'm sure you've taken off all the days you can this year I'm sorry,

210

but it's a no We're also mid-project and already behind

211

If you don't come in tomorrow We'll have some explaining to

212

do to our client That's something nobody wants to get involved in I understand all of this However,

213

I really need to take the day off work Could you enlighten me as to why?

214

It's my wife, sir She's been having some medical problems We had a phone call this morning

215

And there's been a cancellation And the doctor can see her tomorrow

216

She can't get there herself And I'm so worried about her health Oh,

217

I see what time is the appointment?

218

it's at 9am

219

ok you can have time off

220

but if you can come in after the appointment

221

or make up the missed work we as a team would really appreciate it.

222

Thank you so much, sir.

223

And of course, I will do my absolute best to make sure the project doesn't fall behind.

224

I wish your wife well in her appointment.

225

Thank you.

226

That means a lot.

227

What seems to be the problem?

228

Hi there.

229

Hi.

230

Thank you for coming over.

231

Okay.

232

So what seems to be the problem?

233

We're having problems with dampness in this apartment.

234

My wife and I have to wipe the mold off the walls and ceiling every day.

235

I see.

236

Where is this happening?

237

It's all over the house,

238

although the children's bedroom is the worst.

239

They constantly cough now, and I'm worried about the situation.

240

I think it's affecting their health.

241

I see.

242

Is there another room they could sleep in?

243

They could, although every room is affected.

244

I also think that as a landlord,

245

you need to find a solution to this problem and not try to cover it.

246

Yes, I understand.

247

Although it could become very costly.

248

I pay rent to you every month to put a roof over my family's head.

249

I feel disappointed that you don't seem to think the problem is enough to warrant action I don't want to move However,

250

unless you tackle this problem soon I will look to take my family elsewhere

251

I do understand your worry I will look into this problem

252

and let you know the course of action within the week In the meantime,

253

I will send around a cleaning team Thank you I appreciate your cooperation.

254

I'll be in touch.

255

Teacher-parent discussion.

256

Hi, Mrs. Diaz.

257

Thank you for coming in at such short notice.

258

Of course.

259

I was concerned when I received your telephone call.

260

I hope Chrissy is okay and behaving.

261

Well, yes.

262

There is nothing wrong with her behavior,

263

as far as I can see.

264

However, her grades have recently dipped considerably,

265

and she has failed the last two tests.

266

This is very out of character for Chrissy.

267

Oh, goodness!

268

This surprises me.

269

Yes, that's how I feel.

270

I wanted to speak to you,

271

firstly to let you know,

272

But also to ask whether you may see a reason why this has happened.

273

Well, no. We don't have anything unsettling happening at home,

274

and her behavior hasn't changed.

275

It's very unusual for such a dramatic change.

276

It's almost like she has stopped caring about school.

277

Has anything changed at all for Chrissy?

278

I can only think that she's spending time with a different group.

279

She's made new friends.

280

Ah, okay.

281

This has the potential to change her attitude towards school and her studies.

282

Okay, how do we move forwards?

283

I think it best if I chat with her in school first.

284

Then, if things don't improve,

285

we'll plan a meeting to discuss the issue further.

286

Okay, thank you so much, Mrs. Miller.

287

You're welcome.

288

Thank you for coming in.

289

Light Rig.

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.
