Hey.

So, I was with Joshua for an hour today, and he has not asked me out.

Just so frustrating.

Why don't you ask him out?

Oh, yeah.

Totally.

That's such a turn-on.

Really?

Doesn't seem desperate?

Mm-hmm.

That's the turn-on.

He just got a divorce, right?

So he's probably really nervous around women, you know?

Maybe you just need to make the first move.

I've never asked a guy out before.

You've never asked a guy out?

No, have you?

Thousands of times!

That doesn't make me sound too good, does it?

I don't even know how I would go about it.

Oh, well, what I do is, uh, I look a woman up and down, and I say, hey, how you doing?

Oh, please.

Hey, how you doing?

You know what?

I'm gonna do that.

I'm gonna call him up, and I'm gonna ask him out.

Yeah.

I can do that.

Ask him out.

How you doing?

Hi, Joshua.

It's Rachel Green from Bloomingdale's.

Yeah, I was just wondering if you... if you...

left your wallet at the store today?

Well, we found a wallet, and we...

the license.

Well, that is a good idea.

Well, let's see.

This license belongs to a...

a mr. uh...

Thebes. And, um, yeah. So, okay.

So sorry to bother you at home.

I'll see you tomorrow.

Bye.

You've done that a thousand times.

I've never done that.

Oh, God, I just got so nervous that he was gonna say no. Well, you gotta give him something he can't say no to.

Like, uh, Knicks tickets.

Invite the guy to a Knicks game.

You guarantee he'll say yes.

Really?

You think that'll work?

Absolutely.

And if it doesn't, can I get the extra ticket?

Would you like to go to a basketball game with...

You know, it's funny, basketball, because I happen to have tickets to the...

Um...

Likes the Knicks.

What do you think?

Oh, well, as a single woman who is available, I think you look great.

Huh.

Yeah?

Yep.

Oh, yeah, you look great.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah, this looks great.

Um, so you like it?

I do, I do.

I love it.

In fact, I think I'm gonna wear it home.

Great.

All right, well, thank you so much for all your help.

Oh, yeah.

Well, I guess, uh, I guess this is it.

Yeah.

Thanks.

Maybe I'll see you in the spring, you know, with the, uh, for the bathing suits.

Well, you don't want to do that now?

Oh, that's okay.

Anyway, hopefully I'll see you around sometime.

Basketball!

Sorry?

I, uh, I have two tickets to the Knicks game tonight if you're interested, just as a thank you for this week.

Wow.

That would be great.

Really?

Yeah, that would be fantastic.

My nephew is crazy about the Knicks.

This is fantastic.

Thank you so much, Rachel.

Good morning.

Hi.

Okay.

Okay, for next time, what do you say?

I have an extra ticket.

An extra ticket.

Not two tickets.

I have an extra ticket.

So the first time you asked a guy out, he turned you down?

101

He didn't turn me down.

102

He's at the game, isn't he?

103

I got the date.

104

I'm just not on it.

105

One of your customers seem to have left his billfold.

Joshua Bergin.

Really?

Will you call him?

Yes, I will, absolutely.

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.
