29
They have three different types of roasts.
30

And the nice thing about these roasts is on the back of this package, you can actually scan this barcode and you can check out where your coffee beans are from.

Right now, I will scan this bag and I will trace where my coffee is from.

After learning about the different types of coffee, I am going to choose and order a hot cup of coffee at the counter.
58
Before ordering, there are two types of coffee you can choose from.
59
You can choose caffeinated coffee with caffeine, or you can choose decaffeinated coffee.
60
It's also called decaf coffee because this has no caffeine inside of it.
61
You can also choose a half-caf, which just means there is half caffeine and half decaf.
62
Half of it is with caffeinated coffee beans and the other half is with decaffeinated coffee beans.

It costs $3.95 and they also have some pumpkin loaf breads,

pumpkin cream cheese muffin, and they have a chocolate chip cookie.

Consigli per la pratica

Per migliorare la tua pronuncia in inglese, prova a fare shadowing mentre ascolti il video. Il shadow speech ti permette di seguire il ritmo e l'intonazione dell'insegnante. Fai attenzione alla velocità del parlato; inizia ripetendo frasi più brevi e aumenta gradualmente la difficoltà. Puoi praticare insieme al video, fermandolo dopo ogni frase per imitare le pause e la pronuncia dell'insegnante. Questa tecnica, nota anche come shadowspeaks, è un eccellente modo per apprendere il lessico legato al caffè e per rendere la tua conversazione più naturale.

Ricorda che shadowing in inglese non è solo un esercizio di imitazione, ma anche un modo per internalizzare nuove espressioni e costruzioni grammaticali. Impegnati a parlare ad alta voce e a registrarti, così potrai riascoltarti e confrontare la tua pronuncia con quella dell'insegnante. Con costanza e pratica, noterai un notevole miglioramento nella tua pronuncia inglese.

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.
