There was a really good choice of meat and fish, wasn't there?
68
Did you really think so?
69
I wish I could say the same, but actually I thought it was pretty limited.
70
There were far too many fish dishes on the menu, and I can't stand seafood.
71
There just wasn't enough meat.
72
Oh, come on, Joe.
73
We really enjoyed the steak we had.
74
And you said

85
I was going to get a taxi back, but I've just checked my phone and there's a bus due in about 15 minutes.
86
7 .50 p .m to be exact
87

Track 20 Hi there, Alicia.
100
How was your weekend?
101
And you were on a sailing course down at the harbour, weren't you?
102
That's right.
103
I really enjoyed breathing in all that fresh sea air.
104
It was only two days, but the time flew by.
105
The instructor began by teaching us safety rules, which was necessary but not very exciting.
106
But then on the first morning we learnt how to open the sails and I even learnt how to turn the boat.
107
The water wasn't as calm as it looked.
108
I can tell you, I lost my balance a few times.
109
Sounds like you had a lot of fun.
110
I'd love to learn to sail.
111
Well, there are plenty of courses, and I think they run them once a month.
112
So just let me check the website here.
113
OK, so this was my course here, see, the 4th and 5th of August.
114
Now, you could sign up for the next one at the beginning of September
115
and it looks like there are still some spaces available.
116
So the next one starts on the 1st of September.
117
I think I could do that.
118
Well, let me give you the name of the course leader so that you can give him a call.
119
He's a really experienced sailor.
120
OK, it's John Galloway.
121
Is that the usual spelling of John?
122
No, there's no H.
123
He's just J -O -N.
124
OK, gotcha.
125
And did you say his surname's Galloway? can you spell that for me?
126
Yes, Galloway.
127
That's G -A -L -L -O -W -A -Y.
128
And I've got his number too.
129
Why don't you give him a ring?
130
Track 21.
131
So how's your very first week at university going, Rita?
132
It's orientation week for all you new students, isn't it?
133
Yes, that's right.
134
Orientation week.
135
Yes, it's great fun.
136
There are so many different events going on to help us make friends
137
and find our way around the university and to get around the city, come to that.
138
But you'll remember all that, John.
139
You were a new student once.
140
That's true.
141
I remember I went on a walking tour of the city on my first day
142
and I think some students did a bus tour.
143
Well, I did a bike tour.
144
I was sent an email about it and I decided to sign up.
145
There were only eight places and there were seven other names on the list already, so I got the very last place.
146
I didn't know you had a bike.
147
I don't have a bike, but that didn't matter.
148
We all hired them from a little cycle hire shop on Barkway Street.
149
You probably know the place.
150
Barclay Street?
151
Do you mean the Barclay Street on campus?
152
No, it's Barclay Street.
153
B -A -R -K -W -A -Y.
154
Number 22, Barclay Street to be exact.
155
It was great.
156
We could choose a traditional bike or an electric one.
157
So, I take it you went electric?
158
Yes, of course I did.
159
Well, think about it why ride a traditional bike
160
when you can get around the city much faster on an electric one and
161
because there was a group of us
162
it wasn't too expensive in fact the cycle hire was only 120 for the whole group
163
so the cost was only 15 per person and that was for three whole hours did you say 50 no 15 dollars.
164
So I thought it was really quite cheap, and I didn't have to bring along a helmet to wear either.
165
That was included, and we also got a lock,
166
so it was easy to park our bike safely when we wanted to stop and take a break.
167
Sounds good.
168
Have you got the website address of the place you got your bike from?
169
I quite like the idea of doing a bike tour.
170
Yes, it's a really easy one to remember.
171
It's tradeelectric .com.
172
Can you say that again?
173
Trade Electric.
174
T -R -A -D -E -L -E -C -T -R -I -C.
175
All one word, dot com.
176
Thanks, Rita.
177
No problem.
178
Hey, maybe we can do a bike tour together.
179
I'd love to cycle as far as the harbour next time.
180
Great.
181
That's a date then.

Come esercitarsi con questo video

  1. Ascolta tutto il video una volta senza parlare e annota le parole che non conosci.
  2. Fai shadowing frase per frase a velocità normale, ripetendo ognuna finché il tuo ritmo coincide con quello di chi parla.
  3. Registrati e confronta con l’originale, facendo attenzione a parole come hire, spell, sail.

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.
