Well, Sunday, I'm not going to do anything during the morning.
236
I really want to take, you know, a rest.
237
And then I'm going to have lunch with my family because I haven't seen them for a while.
238
And then in the afternoon,
239
there's this movie I really want to see.
240
So I'm going to the cinema with my friends.
241
This is the end of conversation 3.
242
Now I have a test for you.
243
I will give you two audios,
244
and you have to try listen them carefully.
245
Especially, the audios don't have any subtitles or scripts.
246
So what percentage of them can you understand?
247
Now let's begin and listen carefully.
248
Last year I went to Portugal just after Christmas and I stayed there until well just after New Year's this year.
249
In Portugal I met up with one of my friends from Toronto.
250
He had family that lived in Portugal because his family was originally from Portugal
251
so they were kind enough to let me stay with them.
252
I didn't know any Portuguese except for some simple words like hello and thank you.
253
I learned some simple words through an audio CD before I went there.
254
And the people that I stayed with didn't know very much English either.
255
However, we got along surprisingly well.
256
They were surprised that I was able to eat some of their exotic foods.
257
They made some delicious meals every single day like octopus, tripe and rabbit.
258
It is quite exotic but I thought it was quite good.
259
They also made some excellent desserts like creme caramel and a rich sponge cake that they called pound low.
260
I went to a few cities such as Porto, Almere, Lisbon and Nazare.
261
The New Year's celebration on the beaches of Nazare was fantastic.
262
It was really quite a celebration.
263
We had some champagne and some raisins.
264
In Portuguese tradition, they eat 12 raisins for each month of the year and make a wish for each month.
265
I think that because of my friend and his family,
266
I got to experience a part of Portugal that most people wouldn't just by going on vacation.
267
And I really did have a fantastic experience.
268
Okay, now I'll talk about my winter vacation.
269
This winter vacation, I spent two weeks in my hometown,
270
which is Daytona Beach, Florida.
271
It was wonderful.
272
The weather was warm every day.
273
It was sunny every day and the temperature was almost 80 degrees.
274
I visited my mother and I spent every morning having a nice leisurely cup of coffee
275
and reading the newspaper and after that I got my bicycle out
276
and rode down to the beach and enjoyed the sun and the surf.
277
I came back home and read a book and went to bed early.
278
I had a wonderful time.
279
I saw a couple of new movies when I was home in Florida.
280
I saw The Aviator and also an interesting movie called Spanglish,
281
which I hope you all can see because it's an interesting movie about English and the Spanish.
282
That is the end of video today.
283
You did very well.
284
Thank you for watching my video.
285
Bye bye and see you in the next video.

Guida Passo dopo Passo per il Shadowing
Il shadow speech è una tecnica efficace che può aiutarti a migliorare la pronuncia inglese. Ecco come affrontare la difficoltà di questo video specifico:
- Ascolta attivamente: Prima di provare a ripetere, ascolta la conversazione almeno una volta, concentrandoti su toni e intonazioni.
- Fai una trascrizione: Scrivi le frasi chiave che hai sentito. Questo ti aiuterà a capire meglio la struttura delle frasi e le comparazioni.
- Pratica lo shadowspeak: Inizia a ripetere le frasi contemporaneamente a quanto ascolti, cercando di imitare non solo le parole, ma anche il ritmo e l’intonazione.
- Riflette sulla pronuncia: Riascolta la registrazione e confronta la tua pronuncia con quella dei parlanti nativi. Usa un shadowing site per guidarti se necessario.
- Repetizione per l’assimilazione: Ripeti questo esercizio più volte, finché non ti senti sicuro. Con il tempo, il tuo miglioramento nella pronuncia inglese sarà notevole.
Utilizzando queste tecniche, potrai elevate il tuo shadow speak e rendere più fluida la tua padronanza della lingua 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.
