33
He must be exhausted all the time.
34
He seems pretty fit though and whenever I see him at the weekends he looks relaxed and happy.
35
Maybe he just likes getting everything done before he goes home.
36
Yeah, maybe you're right.
37
But he earns just the same as we do, and that's not much.
38
It's not too bad, though, is it?
39
And I think he'll be promoted before any of the rest of us are.

There's no denying that.

I thought the book might never happen when I was sitting at my desk day after day.
57
I wish the words would simply flow out like they did when I was writing my other books.
58
Sometimes I wondered if I'd ever get it finished.
59
Of course, I know it's unlikely to become a bestseller, but I hope that my loyal readers will enjoy it.
60
They'll recognize some of the characters from my first novel.
61
Older and wiser, at least in some cases.

Everyone was talking about it, but I just thought it was silly.
72
You mean you wanted more information?
73
Exactly.
74
I mean, what's the point of something like that?
75
It didn't even make me laugh.
76
Oh, come on.
77
You have to admit, it was pretty funny.
78
Well, I didn't think so.
79
And it was annoying the way everybody whistled the tune all the time.
80
Why on earth would that make me buy something?
81
I think you're too serious sometimes.
82
It was just a bit of fun.
83
If you want to find out more, then look on the internet.

Oh It's funny really, but I just didn't get it.

Oh You know how it is.
101
As soon as you've finished one project, you have to get started on something else, and it's often something completely different.
102
I don't find that a problem, though, and I enjoy the fact that I can get it done effectively.
103
After all, I've been in this job for a long time, so I think I can say I know what I'm doing.
104
I wish that was true of the people I'm working with.
105
I reckon if I didn't keep checking, they'd never get on with things.
106
Though I guess I'm not feeling very motivated about this project either.
107
You know how it is.

Mmm, delicious soup!

You think so?
118
It's a bit hot, isn't it?
119
What do you mean hot?
120
Too many spices or the temperature?
121
It burned my mouth.
122
Well, you should have had something else.
123
There was plenty to choose from.
124
There may have been for you, but don't forget, I'm a vegetarian.
125
There wasn't much there for me.
126
But at least we haven't paid a fortune for it.
127
Mmm, I couldn't even make it at home for that price.
128
But I still think we should go somewhere else next time.
129
Mmm, delicious soup!
130
You think so?
131

Question 7.
143
You hear a woman talking about her neighbour's holiday photographs.
144
Oh They always invite us round for dinner after they've been on holiday and show us all the photos they've taken.
145
I didn't like the dinner much, but of course I didn't say anything.
146
They go to some interesting places, and they actually do pretty well considering they don't have expensive equipment or any training as photographers.
147
I wish I could remember the name of the place they went to this summer.
148
'Mmm, that's really annoying.
149
I should have written it down.' I'll have to ask them next time I see them.
150

158
Oh.
159
I really enjoyed that, didn't you?
160
Despite the technical problems at the beginning.
161
Wonderful!
162
Spanish flamenco music just makes you want to get up and dance.
163
I noticed you standing up at one stage.
164
Yeah, but that was to get a better view.
165
Ah, yes.
166
Pity we were at the back.
167
But it was all that was available when I bought the tickets on Friday.
168
I know, but next time we must book earlier.
169
It was very hot in there.
170
Did that bother you?
171
I just kept thinking it was like summer in Spain.
172
and then the rhythm of the sticks they beat on the floor.
173
Me too.
174
I really enjoyed that, didn't you?
175
Despite the technical problems at the beginning.
176
Wonderful!

Contesto e Sfondo

Questo video è una vera chicca per chi vuole imparare l'inglese con YouTube: si tratta di un test di ascolto B2 (FCE) con dialoghi realistici, come quelli tra un attore giovane e un collega o due amici che discutono di un compagno di lavoro. I contesti sono quotidiani, quindi le frasi e le espressioni sono perfette per la pratica di conversazione in inglese. È il modo ideale per familiarizzare con l'intonazione, la velocità e le sfumature del linguaggio parlato!

Top 5 Frasi per la Comunicazione Quotidiana

  • "There's always a bit of nerves" – Perfetta per esprimere la timidezza in situazioni nuove.
  • "Everything she does seems so effortless" – Utile per elogiare qualcuno che fa le cose con facilità.
  • "He must be exhausted all the time" – Per ipotizzare lo stato di qualcuno basandosi sulle azioni.
  • "There's no denying that" – Per confermare un fatto ovvio in conversazione.
  • "He'll be promoted before any of the rest of us" – Per parlare di carriera e prospettive professionali.

Guida Passo-Passo al Shadow Speak

Il shadow speak (o shadowspeak) è la tecnica perfetta per affrontare questo video. Ecco come farlo in 3 passaggi:

  1. Ascolta una frase alla volta: Pausa il video dopo ogni frase e ripetila immediatamente, cercando di imitare la velocità e l'intonazione. Questo aiuta a migliorare la pronuncia inglese in modo naturale.
  2. Concentrati sulle connessioni: Nelle conversazioni, le parole si fondono spesso (es. "got so much" diventa "got somuch"). Nota questi dettagli per rendere la tua parlata più fluida.
  3. Ripeti 3 volte: Ogni dialogo è ascoltabile due volte nel video, ma aggiungi un terzo tentativo per consolidare. Così trasformi le frasi in "muscoli" linguistici, pronti per la pratica di conversazione in inglese!

Con questi trucchi, vedrai progressi veloci: in poche settimane, la comprensione e la pronuncia saranno più precise. Non aspettare: metti in pratica il shadow speak oggi stesso e sentiti più confidente nella lingua inglese!

La grammatica di questo video

Le strutture che chi parla usa di più, con le parole esatte del video:

StrutturaNel video
Present perfect continuous have/has been + -ing — un’azione iniziata prima e ancora in corsoI've only been acting
Frasi condizionali if + frase, will/would + verbo — una condizione e il suo risultatoif I didn't keep checking, they'd never
Present perfect have/has + participio passato — un’azione passata che conta ancora adessoyou've finished · I've been · haven't paid
Forma passiva be + participio passato — conta ciò che accade, non chi lo fabe promoted

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.
