I'm used to the noise.

I like it, but it was difficult at first.
23
Really?
24
What was the hardest part?
25
The noise.
26
I used to live in a small village,
27
so it was very quiet there. And now?

Now I'm used to the noise.
29
I hardly notice it anymore.
30
What about your new job?
31
That took some time, too.

I actually enjoy going to the office.

So, what do you miss about your old life?
36
I miss having a garden.

I'm excited about my trip next month.
57
Where are you going?
58
Italy.
59
I've never been there before.
60
Wow, that's exciting.
61
I'm a little afraid of flying, though.
62
Really?
63
I used to be afraid of it, but I'm used to flying now.
64
I'm not.
65
I always get nervous before a flight.
66
Well, maybe you'll get used to it.
67
You'll probably feel better once you're on the plane.
68
I hope you're right.
69
I'm really excited about visiting Italy.
70
I'm sure you'll have a great time.
71
I'm looking forward to seeing you.

We could try it.

Wow, you've come a long way.
137

139
The hospital staff has been very friendly and supportive.
140
That's good to hear.
141
Where do you live now?
142
I've lived in this neighborhood since April.
143
It's convenient for me because I can walk to work in about 10 minutes.
144
sounds like things have been going really well for you they
145
have i've been really happy since i got this job do you know where she lives
146
hey tom do you know where sarah lives yeah why It's her birthday tomorrow,
147
and I bought her a present.
148
I want to leave it at her door.
149
That's nice.
150
I'll send you her address.
151
Thanks.
152
Do you know what time she usually gets home?
153
Around 6, I think.
154
Do you know if she'll be home tomorrow evening?
155
I'm pretty sure she'll be at work until 6.
156
Perfect.
157
Then I can drop off the present before she gets home.
158
Good idea.
159
Do you know where she works?
160
She works at the bakery near the hospital.
161
Oh, right.
162
Do you know how she usually gets home?
163
She takes the bus.
164
Why?
165
I was thinking I could leave the present around 5 .30.
166
She probably won't be home yet.
167
That should work.
168
Great!
169
And please don't tell her anything.
170
Don't worry.
171
I won't say a word.
172
Thanks.
173
I really want to surprise her.
174
I'm sure she'll love it.
175
Which city is better to live in?
176
So, have you decided where you want to move?
177
Not yet.
178
I'm trying to choose between Boston and Chicago.
179
That's a tough choice.
180
Which city do you think is better to live in?
181
I'm leaning towards Chicago.
182
It's cheaper than Boston, especially when it comes to rent.
183
True, but Boston is smaller and easier to get around.
184
That's a good point.
185
Chicago is much bigger, though, so there's more to do.
186
What about the weather?
187
Neither city has great weather.
188
But I think Boston is colder in the winter.
189
Actually, Chicago can be pretty cold, too.
190
Yeah, but I don't mind the cold.
191
I'm more worried about the cost of living.
192
Are the apartments more affordable there?
193
Definitely.
194
I found a nice apartment that's almost $500 cheaper than the one I found in Boston.
195
Wow, that's a big difference.
196
Exactly, but Boston has better job opportunities in my field.
197
So you have to decide what's more important, a cheaper city or a better job.
198
That's the problem.
199
Maybe I should visit both cities before I decide.
200
Definitely.
201
You'll have a better idea once you've spent some time in each one.
202
The best restaurant in town.
203
Do you want to go out for dinner tomorrow night?
204
Sure.
205
Where should we go?
206
I'm not sure.
207
What's the best restaurant in town?
208
Probably Bella's.
209
It's always packed.
210
Really?
211
I've never been there.
212
You should try it.
213
They have the best pasta I've ever had.
214
What about the prices?
215
It's not the cheapest restaurant, but it's not too pricey either.
216
hmm what's the most expensive restaurant around here probably that new place downtown
217
i can't remember the name i've heard about it someone told
218
me it has the most beautiful view in the city yeah
219

220

221

Che cosa imparerai in questa lezione
In questo video, praticherai l'inglese attraverso conversazioni reali, focus su espressioni comuni che usi ogni giorno. Imparerai a differenziare "stopped eating" e "stopped to eat", a usare "used to" e "I'm used to" correttamente, e a parlare di abitudini e cambiamenti. È perfetto per migliorare la comprensione e la pronuncia, soprattutto se vuoi esercitarti con il shadowing in inglese.
Parole e frasi chiave
- Cut down on: Riduire (es. "I'm trying to cut down on sugar").
- Used to: Indicare un'abitudine passata (es. "I used to live in a small village").
- Be used to: Essere abituato a (es. "Now I'm used to the noise").
- Stop to + verbo: Interrompere per fare qualcosa (es. "I stopped to eat a small piece").
- Stop + gerundio: Interrompere un'azione (es. "I stopped eating it").
Consigli per il practice
Il video ha una velocità naturale ma chiara, perfetta per il shadowing. Ecco come fare: Ripeti ogni frase subito dopo il parlante, cercando di imitare l'intonazione e il tono. Se ti perdi, riavvia il segmento. Concentrati sulle differenze tra "used to" e "be used to" – ascolta attentamente la pronuncia di "used" (in "used to" è pronunciato /juːst/, in "be used to" /juːzd/). Usa questo video come shadowing site: pausa, ripeti, e rafforzati. Non ti preoccupare di sbagliare: l'importante è praticare costantemente. Con il tempo, noterai che la tua pronuncia e la fluidità miglioreranno! Ricorda: imparare l'inglese con i video è un modo divertente e efficace per progredire. Continua così, e soon diventerai un esperto nel shadow speak!
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.
