Creazione lezione...
1
Yeah, I can barely keep my eyes open myself.
2
Filing briefs.
3
Sucks.
4
You actually came.
5
You must be...
6
Harvey Specter.
7
Joe, was it?
8
Friend Fillion and the deal that's on the table.
9
Let me just get it straight.
10
You caught him rifling through some files in lieu of calling the police, you want me to pay you off?
11
I never said that.
12
He did.
13
Oh, that's great.
14
This way, if I level it, charge of extortion, it's hearsay, huh?
15
10 years working for a law firm, you'll learn a thing or two.
16
Which is good, because you sure as hell don't make a lot of money doing it.
17
Somehow I think you're getting by fine.
18
Just saying to the level you guys play at.
19
Espionage happens all the time, which is why I know you'll do anything to protect your secrets.
20
Well, actually, Joe Spina of 2561 Clover Lane, Astoria, Queens, I think we all would.
21
Like those tax returns you filed jointly for the last six years while no longer living with your wife.
22
You know, the IRS can destroy you for that.
23
You think you're the first person to try to extort me, Joe?
24
Because that's the level I play at.
25
Now, you're a security guard, likes to take risks.
26
I like that.
27
So here's what we're gonna do.
28
This here's a generous donation to Joey Jr.'s Little League team.
29
Now if it gets to them, it gets to them.
30
If it doesn't, it doesn't.
31
The next time we talk, it's gonna be me who wants a favor.
32
Officer.
33
Do I really need to pay you back?
34
Let's start with an explanation.
35
You said I needed to find evidence, so I went to find some.
36
By breaking into another law firm?
37
Is that really worse than paying off a security guard?
38
Okay, first of all, I didn't pay him off.
39
Second of all, if I hadn't paid him off, you'd be in jail right now.
40
You think I might be right about Stan?
41
No, he never said you were wrong.
42
I said we needed evidence.
43
But did you find something?
44
Thank you.

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.
