120
Well, I warned you.
121
Hi.
122
Hi.
123
I'm here for the medal.
124
Ah, yes.
125
Sir.
126
My big one.
127
Ah, sure.
128
The medal is yours.
129
Yeah.
130
This is the one. So this is yours?
131
I took you, it was stolen.
132
The royal champion would have never given up his medal for a lousy hundred bucks.
133
Hundred bucks.
134
And here comes the criminal.
135
William, is that you?
136
I mean, I was looking for you for so long time, my friend.
137
So you two know each other?
138
We know each other.
139
We were on the same team.
140
You remember.
141
Michael was first and I was second.
142
I always was just a few tens behind you.
143
Wait.
144
So you bought my medal at the ocean?
145
You would never have sold it voluntarily.
146
And it helped me to find you.
147
It's yours, my friend.
148
You always help me.
149
So now it's time for me to return the favor.
150
See, kindness always circles back.
151
Well, I still prefer this.
152
You talking about a check?
153
Actually, I'm calling my bank and cancel it.
154
You can do that.
155
Why?
156
We had an auction.
157
It's not legal.
158
And I think it's legal to conduct an auction by deceiving the client.
159
Enough as to why that you deceive him.
160
By the way, I forgot something.
161
Here are the hundred bucks that he owes you for the medal.
162
Let's go, my friends.
163
I'll make sure you looked after. With interest.

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.
