It does, unfortunately.

But you can also rent a bike for short distances.

It costs just $1.75 for 30 minutes.

You can always have such a good time there, no matter how old you are.
41
I couldn't agree more.
42
This is such a big city with lots of things to do.

I guess it's much bigger than Portland, right?

Yes, it's much bigger.

I've never been there.

Portland is a fantastic place.

It has a casual and laid-back vibe.

I work in an office and wear jeans most of the times, and so does my boss.

It sounds like an interesting city.

I hope to get a chance to visit it someday.

I need to go to the bakery now.

Have a wonderful stay in L.A.

Thanks again for your help.

You were very kind.

Don't mention it.

I'm sorry to bother you, but do you know where I can buy a bus ticket here?
61
Oh, you need to buy a tap card.
62
It's available from that vending machine over there.
63
How much is the fare?
64
The regular base fare is $1.75 for boarding, or $7 for a day pass with unlimited rides.
65
Okay, thanks a lot.
66
You're welcome.
67
Excuse me, how does this machine work?
68
It's easy.
69
Press any button to start.
70
Now, would you like a one-way trip or a pass?
71
I'd like two trips.
72
Okay, buying a TAP card costs a dollar.
73
Then you add the amount you want to put on it.
74
That is $3.50 for two trips.
75
So the total is $4.50.
76
They accept cash or credit card.
77
I'll pay by card.
78
You can insert the card in that slot and pick the tap card from here.
79
Wonderful.
80
Thank you very much for your help.
81
No problem.
82
Where would you like to go?

To the mall.
84
You need to catch the 264.
85
Oh, good.
86
And when does it come?
87
It runs in the half hour.
88
I see.
89
Is the bus ride long?
90
It only takes 10 minutes.
91
That's all?
92
Yes, it's a pretty short trip.
93
Are there always a lot of people on that bus?
94
Only during rush hour.
95
Oh, okay.
96
Thank you.
97
No problem.
98
Have a good trip.
99
Thanks.
100
Excuse me, is this seat taken?
101
No, it isn't.
102
Do sit down.
103
This is the first time I've gotten to sit down all day.
104
My back is killing me.
105
Where are you going, if you don't mind?
106
Bracken Street.
107
How about you?
108
I need to get to the Sweet Street Mall.
109
Do you know where I should get off the bus?
110
Oh, that's four stops away.
111
Make sure to keep your eyes on that digital screen.
112
And when you see your stop coming up next, press on that red stop button.
113
They're not always going to stop at all the stations if there's no one getting off or on.
114
I see.
115
Thanks.
116
I'm going to battle the crowds at the big blowout sale.
117
You've got more energy than I have.
118
I'm going straight home into bed.
119
Oh, that sounds nice.
120
I've got to get a birthday present for a friend, though.
121
Well, here's my stop. Have a good day.
122
You too.
123
Good luck shopping.
124
Wow, what do you think about this weather?
125
Oh, it's beautiful.
126
We Angelenos are blessed with the best weather in the country.
127
No doubt about it.
128
Does it ever snow in LA?
129
No, it never ever snows here.
130
In winter, it is sunny during the day.
131
But as night falls, you must wear a warm jacket.
132
It is freezing near the beach.
133
You must have heat in your house, or have wool blankets.
134
I am not kidding.
135
It gets cold at night.
136
Spring is delightful.
137
It's sunny and warm, or sunny and breezy.
138
Summer is usually very hot.
139
Are you from out of town?
140
Yes.
141
Oh, where are you from?
142
Portland.
143
Portland.
144
Wow, you're far from home.
145
What's the weather like there?
146
In the spring, we get lots of rain showers, and the greenery begins sprouting in mid to late March.
147
Around the first of July it stops raining.
148
In Portland we typically have very low humidity during the summer.
149
The summer in Portland is beautiful, very nice and awesome.
150
And almost the only time of year when you can enjoy the great outdoors you're surrounded by.
151
Summer is very mild though.
152
The falls are very rainy.
153
What are the winters like in Portland?
154
Wet.
155
Sometimes cold, but mainly wet.
156
Snow happens, but isn't a given, and varies year to year.
157
Please let me help you carry those bags, ma'am.
158
They must be pretty heavy.
159
Oh, thank you so much.
160
I guess you can carry them if you want to.
161
That's very kind of you.
162
You are a real gentleman.
163
There aren't too many young men like you nowadays.
164
My parents taught me that a man should carry groceries and open the door for ladies.
165
Well, what a treat.
166
Your parents raised you very well.
167
Hats off.
168
My apartment is next to the post office, on the second floor.
169
That's fine.
170
So, are you in school?
171
I'm studying to be a lawyer, ma'am.
172
I'm in my first year.
173
Some people who get into trouble are actually innocent, and I want to protect them.
174
Well, you're a very kind and caring boy.
175
I'm sure you'll make a fine lawyer someday.
176
Your parents must be very proud of you.
177
Hello.
178
Is there something wrong with your car?
179
Can I help?
180
Hello.
181
Well, yes, I was traveling from my workplace to my home.
182
When the car suddenly stalled and wouldn't start.
183
I think the engine stopped due to some internal failure.
184
I'm not sure.
185
There are no garages around for miles.
186
Let me have a look.
187
Maybe I can fix it.
188
I used to be a mechanic a few years ago.
189
Oh, really?
190
That's great to hear.
191
It would be wonderful if you could fix it.
192
I think I fixed your car.
193
It should be working now.
194
You can try starting the engine.
195
Really?
196
How did you get it done so fast?
197
Well, it was just a minor problem.
198
Wow, the car started.
199
You're a lifesaver.
200
I really appreciate your help.
201
How much do I owe you?
202
Oh, there's no charge.
203
It took me just a few minutes, and it was my pleasure to help you.
204
How can I ever repay you for your kindness?
205
I did nothing unusual.
206
Anyone would have done the same thing in my place.
207
A good deed is its own reward.
208
Are you ready for another driving lesson, Mark?

Hey, Stacy.
240
Long time no see.
241
How are you?
242
Jessica!
243
Well, well, I haven't seen you in a while.
244
You look different.
245
Have you changed your hair?
246
Yeah, it's shorter.
247
And I wear contacts now.
248
Oh, and I've lost weight.
249
Well, you look fantastic!
250
Thanks, so do you!
251
So, what have you been up to?
252
Well, I've been working very hard.
253
Got a new apartment, and I'm making better money now.
254
Things have been going really good.
255
What about you, Stacy?
256
What have you been doing?
257
Same old stuff, you know.
258
I'm working in the same bank and still going out with Anthony.
259
I've also been busy fixing up my place.
260
Really?
261
So how's your house coming along?
262
It's almost done.
263
My brother's helping me to keep the price down.
264
How about you?
265
Do you work at the same company?
266
Yes, but I've been promoted to a managerial position.
267
I'm very thrilled about this.
268
That's amazing!
269
Congratulations!
270
Thanks.
271
Are you still seeing Liam?
272
No, we broke up last year.
273
I'm seeing somebody else now.
274
His name is Eric and we got engaged.
275
That's great news!
276
Congratulations for this too.
277
Do you live in the area?
278
Yes, I live around the corner.
279
And if you want to come by, my penthouse is over on 1600 Park Avenue, 13th floor, suite 1320A.
280
Feel free to come by anytime.
281
I would love to do some catching up.
282
Penthouse, huh?
283
Well, alright, I will.
284
Well, I need to get to work.
285
Feel free to stop by anytime after 7pm, okay?
286
Take care, Stacy.
287
You too, bye!
288
Hey, miss!
289
Watch where you're going!
290
You might hurt someone.
291
What a rude and unpleasant man.
292
Well, what did you expect?
293
You walked into him.
294
I think you're the one who's being rude.
295
You should have apologized.
296
You've got to stop texting when you're walking along the road.
297
Oh, please.
298
I can text wherever I want to.
299
Stop taking his side.
300
Texting while walking is a bad idea because you can get distracted and trip, fall, or run into something or someone.
301
You put yourself at risk of getting into an accident, or you can hurt someone else.
302
You can't walk along like that with your head down, expecting everyone else to walk around you.
303
Stop overreacting.
304
You're making a mountain out of a molehill.
305
No, I think you are the one who takes things too lightly.
306
If you must text while you're out, you should stop somewhere and get out of everyone's way.
307
Oh, come on.
308
You can't stop every time you want to look at your phone.
309
Then at least keep checking ahead of you to make sure you're not going to walk into someone.
310
Fine.
311
You've gotten your point across.
312
I'll be more careful from now on.
313
Hello, officer.
314
Is there something wrong?
315
Ma'am, you parked in front of a hydrant.
316
Your ticket is almost completed.
317
What?
318
You're giving me a ticket?
319
Yes, ma'am.
320
But I only went in the bakery to get some bread.
321
It's very dangerous what you did.
322
It's a safety violation.
323
Look, I know I shouldn't have parked here, but I was only gone two minutes.
324
Anybody would park here if the spot were empty without realizing the block was there.
325
I've already written the ticket.
326
I can't take it back.
327
Surely you could cancel it if you wanted.
328
It was literally one minute.
329
One minute, two minutes.
330
You can't park here.
331
It's as simple as that.
332
You even blocked the handicap ramp.
333
But I just had to dash into the bakery to buy bread.
334
Supposing you cancel it just this once?
335
I don't care what you were doing.
336
I can't cancel a ticket.
337
It's more than my job's worth.
338
You've got two weeks to pay.
339
Okay, fine.
340
How much do I need to pay?
341
Fifty-one dollars.
342
Fifty-one dollars?
343
Oh my goodness!
344
Thank you.

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.
